Rise My Elementals!

All the Humans from Earth were suddenly transported into a new world called Celestial World. No one knew the reason why nor what the purpose was all about. They were suddenly transported without any warnings or signs and were forced to live in a mysterious and unfamiliar new world. For 50 years, Humans lived in endless suffering and torment. They were all forced to run from one place to another or else they would be enslaved by other Foreign races that had long been living in the Celestial World. Fortunately, the Human race was finally able to slowly develop its strength and power in the Celestial World through the sacrifice of countless Humans after 50 years. However, it was mysteriously Fated not to last long as an unknown power suddenly started doing everything to destroy Humanity's Kingdoms and Empires. A young man by the name of Leo Heart had his Fate suddenly rewritten by some unknown power to stop this unprecedented doom of the Humans after a Red Cube, that the Heart Noble Household had been keeping as a Family Heirloom from the very start of the Human Race existence in the Celestial World, suddenly jumped up and embedded itself into his right palm. A world full of Mystery in which Magic and Mana had become every race's foundation of existence. A young man who had lost his family for the Human Race's existence has his Fate unexpectedly rewritten after such an encounter. But, would it be enough to stop this so-called unprecedented doom? Would the Human Race's existence be saved by Leo from the unknown yet powerful existence? Or would the Humans sadly become nothing but a mere history in this new world?

Defending A Portal 

Chapter 18 Defending A Portal

Author: M_W Cancer

Grammar Checker: M_W Nomral

The opening speech lasted nearly two hours.

A boring two hours of endless discussion.

Some information was useful, and some were not. Because of that, Leo became bored to the point that he let out a yawn from time to time, though he was still trying his best to focus on listening.

Cassandra was always pinching Leo's hand whenever he let out a yawn which also made him focus on listening. She told him that she could feel hundreds of eyes observing the entire stadium. Though it was just a feeling, he still decided to consider it.

Luckily, Leo believed in Cassandra ...

After two hours of boring speech, the hundreds of teachers hiding inside the secret rooms of the huge stadium suddenly flew out from the top, finally revealing their presence to every student.

It was only at this moment that the majority of the students realized that there were actually teachers present inside the stadium. They initially thought that there weren't any teachers present.

Even though some had still suspected the teachers being present, they only assumed that a few were just blending in along with the students. So, it was truly out of their expectations that all the teachers were hiding inside hundreds of secret rooms at the top of the stadium.

Immediately, one of the teachers landed on the stage. This teacher was in his sixties, and a six-star badge was hanging out on his clothes. It means that this teacher was a 6-Star rank Mage, one of the highest-ranking Mage of the Silver Mage Academy.

"I'm Steven, one of the three Vice Chairmans of the Silver Mage Academy." The old man introduces himself before looking at the student's reaction.

The students were shocked to realize that it wasn't only teachers who were observing them, but there was actually also a Vice-Chairman of the Silver Mage Academy present.

Realizing that he has achieved his first intention, Vice-chairman Steven continued his speech, "A lot of you might wonder why were there a lot of teachers hiding inside the stadium, and even a Vice-Chairman was hiding among them? What is their purpose? Why did they hide? And more of such questions..."

"Well, the answer to those questions is simply because we are doing it to secretly assess each one of you!"

"That's right! The Hidden Assesstment."

"You might be wondering right now. Well, how do we assess? How does it work? What are the criteria? Simply put, it was just based on how you had behaved in today's speech."

Finding out that this was the rumored Hidden Assessment, all the students immediately wore grave expressions on their faces. Especially those students who didn't pay attention to the student representative's speech. Their faces were the ugliest of all at this moment.

Contrary to the majority of students, Leo at this moment was calm and relaxed. He can't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Through Cassandra's constant warning, he was doing an act to always listen to the student representative's speech.

The one thing he was really afraid of happening when she was constantly reminding him was exactly what the Vice-Chairman said, Hidden Assessment!

Leo had naturally heard of the Hidden Assessment done by every Royal Mage Academy in the past. He is aware that if he failed on such an assessment, he would not be able to become an official student of the Mage Academy.

It truly terrified Leo as he thought of not getting accepted by Silver Mage Academy. So, he had always reminded himself to be careful throughout this entire time.

The stadium immediately began getting loud as some students let out voices of protest and disagreement. But all of their selfish thoughts were just ignored.

If these teachers answer them, then they would only say this; "Do you think we care about your protest and disagreements? If you don't like it, then go and establish your own Mage Academy!"

The voices of protest and disagreements were immediately disrupted by the Vice-Chairman.

"Only the students who have a portal appearing in front of them are considered to be officially enrolled as students of Silver Mage Academy,"

"Congratulations to those who have passed!

"As for those who failed, please quickly proceed to the other Mage Academies while you still have time!" The old man muttered, signaling the end of his speech.

After the speech was finished, portals suddenly started appearing in front of some students.

Those who didn't have a portal appearing in front of them instantly became depressed. While those who had a portal became joyous and excited.

However, things wouldn't always go as the Vice-chairman had pleased...

At this moment, those students who didn't pass immediately started to create a ruckus.

"Get out of my way, this portal is mine!" One student suddenly rushed towards someone else's portal.

"Someone as weak as you should have no right to become a student of this Academy!" Another one pushed a guy to the ground.

"What's the use of having a portal in front of you if you don't even have the strength to protect it!" A muscular guy laughed out loud as he stared at a little girl who was currently trembling in fear.

A student beside Leo who was just sleeping from the very start to the very end of the opening ceremony suddenly pulled Leo to the side.

Unfortunately for the student, Leo had long expected such a situation. The instant the former touched his clothes, two arms instantaneously grabbed his collar before quickly being thrown down below to stop the other students who thought of stealing his portal.

"Go inside your portal first, I'll cover you from behind." Leo hurriedly told Cassandra. This moment was the best time for those who got accepted to get inside their respective portals since the majority of those who failed were still choosing which portal to steal.

Leo was wearing a serious expression right now.

Seeing it, Cassandra couldn't help suddenly remembering the last night at the Crescent Moon Dining. He was also wearing that same serious face.

Although Cassandra wanted to prove to Leo that she was now willing to protect him this time with her life. But with how serious he was, she didn't dare to voice her disagreements anymore.

Cassandra hurriedly runs towards her portal. The moment she arrived right beside it, she couldn't help but throw a glance towards Leo. Looking at him who was so serious and ready to throw everything he got just to protect her from behind, she didn't hesitate anymore as she swiftly jumped inside her portal.

As soon as Cassandra's portal vanished though, Leo suddenly wore a self-mockery to himself, "I could have just let her protect me, but could I really bear to let a woman protect me?"

Obviously, he couldn't accept that. So, he decided to remain and protect Cassandra.

Albeit he is long aware that there's a low chance he could successfully defend his portal.

With tens of people trying their best to steal his portal, it was pretty obvious that he couldn't defend it.

However, Leo still didn't give up. He was still holding on to a little hope that he could get inside his portal before anyone else could.

Unexpectedly though, as soon as Leo kicked a guy for him to launch his body closer to his portal, he was suddenly grabbed in both of his hands by two people.

"Young Master, go!" a fat guy said.

"We will hold him off for you!" a tall guy said.

"Good! I promise to raise both of your pays after this!" A young man with brown hair said in delight.

The brown hair young man immediately rushed towards Leo's portal.

However, the moment the brown hair young man tried to get inside, he was suddenly thrown away immediately. Not just him, but all of those who tried to get inside the portals through stealing were immediately flung away the moment they tried to enter.

"By the way, no one aside from those students who had passed could access the portals! So, stealing is strictly forbidden," Vice-chairman Steven said with a wave of his hand and a loud laugh as if to mock those naughty students. Soon after, he cast a spell that immediately threw some students who had caused a ruckus nearby him outside of the stadium.

Leo felt like crying after hearing the Vice-chairman's reminder. He defended it with all his effort from all those who wanted to steal it, yet stealing was actually forbidden?!

"You should have just told us sooner!" Leo said silently. He could only shake his head helplessly at the Vice-chairman's strange hobby of always wanting to delay his words.

"Hey, you two, when are you planning to release me?" Leo quickly reminded the two henchmen who were still using all of their force to hold down both of his hands. Since they were far away from the Vice-chairman, thus these two weren't thrown outside the stadium.

Hearing Leo's voice, the two immediately let go of the former's hand while showing an embarrassed face.

"I will remember this!" Leo said to the brown hair young man before he went inside his portal.

With a *Whoosh! sound, Leo, along with the portal, quickly disappeared from the huge stadium.
