After a while, the battle finally died down. The winner was obviously Silver Mage Academy's students. That was already an absolute outcome.
However, a minority of the students still received various sorts of injuries. A few had even almost died due to some Bandit Mages desperate attack, specifically from the area of Class 1B+ to Class 1C-.
Curiously, though, the students of the three Class 1E's and 1S's only received slight injuries amongst their people. Obviously, this was due to the fact that the majority of capable students were assigned to these respective classes.
Leo at the side quickly fell in deep thought. "I'm sure that the Class 1B's and 1C's aren't going to be a problem during this trial competition, only Class 1A's, 1D's, and 1E's..."
"For the moment, Class 1S+ is going to be our ally," Leo suddenly turned to look at Carlos, Justine, and Dylan who were currently having a conversation, "And Class 1S is highly likely going to be our ally, too..."
"Definitely, those other class would also form an alliance..." Leo suddenly brought out the map of the Floating Mountain. After this battle with the Bandits, each of the class will definitely realize the value of forming an alliance.
"Class 1S isn't really that far from us," Leo turned to look at the location of the Class 1S, "However, they are located in a pretty dangerous location..."
On the map, the location of Class 1S was one of the most dangerous locations, since its south is the Shark Cemetery, its north is the Class 1D-, east is Class 1A+, and its west is the Class 1E+. Only by going straight to the east would they be able to finally meet up with his Class 1S-. That would only be the case though if the other Class 1B doesn't ally with the other 1B+ at its north, which is nearly an impossible outcome after this. In such a situation, Class 1S wouldn't be able to easily breakthrough from 1B even if they can indeed destroy Class 1A+, and neither could his Class 1S-, since he needed to also worry about the other class surrounding his Class 1S-.
Moreover, now that an alliance amongst all the class was an absolute outcome, he assumes that his Class 1S- might also be having a hard time breaking through the Class 1C at its north since at the northwest of Class 1C was the Class 1C+ and at the northwest of Class 1C+ is Class 1C-. If he assumes that the three Class 1C's are in alliance too, by then they would basically be like a border that will separate the entire southeast from the other locations. The three 1C's would then assist each other and would cause a lot of trouble to Leo and Carlos if they wanted to breakthrough to meet up with each other.
Although it's like that, the situation isn't really that dangerous. Since the moment 1S+ eliminates 1D, the Class 1S- and Class 1S+ can help with each other in eliminating Class 1C. And so does in the Class 1S case if they can eliminate the Class 1A+, the Class 1S and Class 1S- can help with each other. It just depends on which of them appeared first.
In the case of the other ally though, they wouldn't be able to help that easily with the other ally, since it would basically threaten their base. After all, the trial competition is like a defend the nexus game, so all the class wouldn't be able to just simply leave behind their base to help an ally. Like, for example, if Class 1S+ arrives first, then Class 1S wouldn't be able to help them, and vice versa. Unless, of course, if there are only a few classes left. In such a situation, each member of the remaining class would definitely be spread out widely, in order to look, launch, or ambush other nexus or students of the other remaining class.
As for the reason why Class 1S- can't work without anyone's help, it's simply because they are surrounded by the alliance on all sides. In their north is the Class 1C's alliance, and to their west is the Class 1B's alliance. The other direction, specifically south and east, is basically the Shark Cemetery.
"This is a headache!" Leo shook his head helplessly. He really hates a troublesome situation. Making a plan to win this trial competition is definitely something troublesome.
"Leo!" Carlos suddenly called out with Justine and Dylan behind him.
Leo was quickly pulled out of his deep thoughts, as he turned to look at Carlos, Justine, and Dylan.
"Class 1S would now be joining the alliance, so let's go back to the carriage and change the plan!" Carlos said.
Leo just nodded his head as he walked back towards their carriage while still looking at the map. Although making a plan to win this trial competition a troublesome thing for him, his desire to claim the first place still overwhelmed the former thought.
.....
After a few hours of continuous traveling, the group of carriages from Silver Mage Academy finally arrived at Eastern Coast, specifically the Green Weed city.
Unlike the other cities that Leo had visited before, Green Weed city's wall is green in color.
There is actually a story to this...
The wall is now green in color simply because the alchemist and craftsman of Green Weed city had discovered that the green weed discovered nearby the city can actually fortify the wall from any Water Element related Magic spells.
Since Green Weed city is near the ocean, the city itself would constantly be attacked by a lot of sea Magical Beast, and hence the fortified green wall is really a huge help to them since the majority of the sea Magical Beast attacks are related to Water Element.
They had even named the city after it and even the ruler of the Green Weed city, the Green Noble Household, had purposely changed their Noble Household name into Green to honor the green weed that helped them defend the city.
Although the fortified green wall wasn't really a sure assurance that the Green Weed city would be safe from the Magical Beast attack, the citizens living inside believe that as long as there is a supply of green weed, the city itself would never be destroyed by those Magical Beast at the sea.
That was the past belief, though...
Ever since the attack of the Blue Fin Kingdom of the Mermaid race due to the misunderstanding of the Fourth Prince and his wife. The belief of the citizens living in Green Weed city about the fortified green wall isn't at the same height as before anymore.
In fact, they hated the green color of the wall right now. Saying that every time they looked at it they can't help but remember the green wall being drenched by Human blood.
Although the green color and red color are far from being close to each other if the two were to be compared, the green color can indeed be seen as a disgusting sight to look at. In fact, a green color wall is not a good color for a wall, that's why the walls of every city were always cleaned from the moss that grows around within the wall.
The real reason behind why the citizens of Green Weed city really hated the fortified green wall is simply because of their shattered belief.
The citizens once believed that the wall can defend them from any sea Magical Beast or from any Water Element related Magic spells. However, since it wasn't able to defend like what they believed the wall could do, then the fortified green wall itself had then become their outlet of hatred. After all, the people that survived had lost a member of their family or a close friend from that attack. The death even caused blood to flow like a river. So, the moment they returned after the misunderstanding was cleared out and have seen the Green Weed city, they can't help but to hate those Blue Fin Kingdom.
Unfortunately, though, they were not able to do it since the Fourth Prince has married the Princess of Blue Fin Kingdom, and hence hating the Blue Fin Kingdom is akin to hating the Silver royal family, who had allowed the marriage to take place.
They naturally understood that they can't hate either the Blue Fin Kingdom or the Silver royal family for what happened before, since they should blame themselves for being powerless.
Because of that, the innocent fortified green wall has then become the outlet of hatred that constantly reminds the citizens living in Green Weed city to become much more powerful in order to defend the Green Weed city if ever the same situation happened again.
In conclusion, the hatred is used in order to drive the citizens to become stronger than before.
Walking inside Green weed city, Leo can see from time to time some people that suddenly went to punch the fortified green wall. He really can't help but be amused by such a seemingly retarded action.
"Bro! That wall is indeed an outlet of your hatred, but not where you literally let out your hatred towards!" Leo shook his head as he continued to follow the teachers who have appeared at this moment to lead them towards the Green Weed city flying boat yard called, Green Eagles.
