Ranking System

A ranking system from 1st to 999th exists in this academy, 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 teachers and other students alike. Their treatment in dorms 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 powerhouses of the academy. Treated as promising future mages, they receive excellent facilities and education. Entering the top 100 is a major status symbol in itself. Dueling among upper ranks is 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 compared to general students, the gap with the upper ranks is clear. Since the top 100 is within reach with effort, this is the class where rank competition is most intense. 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 duels, but are often repelled due to the difference in skill.

701st–999th: <Bottom>

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

Dueling System

Rank Duel

One can challenge someone with a higher rank to a "Rank Duel." The rule is simple: "Win, and 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, "a price is staked on the outcome." The price can be anything—money, possessions, favors, or even becoming a slave.
