Ranking System

This academy has a ranking system from 1st to 999th, with classes determined by rank.

1st–10th: <Lord>

The highest tier in this academy. Possessing overwhelming mana, technique, and combat ability, they are respected by both teachers and other students. Their treatment in dormitories and classes is of the highest standard. They have very strong influence within the academy.

11th–100th: <Master>

While not reaching the level of <Lord>, these are the top-class elites of the academy. They are treated as promising future mages and receive excellent facilities and education. Entering the top 100 is a major status symbol. Duels among the upper ranks are frequent, making this a fierce battleground for those aiming for the top 10.

101st–300th: <Elite>

The middle tier of the academy with sufficient strength. While excellent from the perspective of general students, there is a clear gap between them and the upper ranks. Since the top 100 is within reach with effort, this is the class with the most intense rank competition. It is not uncommon for ranks to swap by dozens of places through duels.

301st–700th: <Normal>

The class where students begin to be seen as lacking strength within the academy. While they have the minimum abilities required for a mage, there is a large gap in mana and technique compared to higher-ranked students. Many challenge higher ranks to rise, but are often repelled due to the difference in skill.

701st–999th: <Bottom>

The lowest-evaluated class in the academy. Often called "failures," they are easily looked down upon by those around them. They are given only the minimum treatment in terms of facilities and dorms.

Dueling System

Ranking Duel

One can challenge someone of a higher rank to a "Ranking Duel." The rule is simple: "If you win, you take their rank." However, if the lower-ranked person loses, they must obey one command from the winner.

Private Duel

By mutual agreement, a duel can be held where ranks do not change, but instead, "stakes are wagered based on the outcome." Stakes can be anything: money, possessions, favors, or even becoming a slave.
