Chapter 3: Free Study
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lex boarded the bus and headed for the Draconic Mountains.
He wanted to see for himself what his university looked like.
After about two hours of bus ride, he arrived at the address of the school on the document.
Kasage University.
When he saw the place, his face was filled with shock.
In his memory, the Draconic Mountain region used to be an empty plain.
However, he did not know when a university had been built here.
It had an extremely luxurious gate.
This was a medieval-style structure. The ground was covered with green lawns, crimson pebbles and castle-like buildings. The distant church was filled with pigeons.
Lex stood in the sunlight and felt as though he had traveled through time again.
The system was really amazing.
Even the school had been built for him; he did not have to worry about anything.
On the door was carved: Kasage University!
It was like an ancient castle, similar to the manors of the old nobles in the TV series.
It was extremely luxurious.
Now, it belonged to Lex. He was the principal here.
He walked in directly.
An emotionless voice sounded:
“Identity confirmed!”
“Welcome to Kasage University, Principal!”
The door slowly opened, and Lex’s eyes were filled with surprise.
This academy was filled with the aura of magic everywhere.
The most eye-catching building was a huge castle next to a lake. There was a wide grassland outside the castle.
There were flower beds and vegetable gardens.
There was a lake beside the castle, but it did not have a name for the time being.
In the academy, there was a dense forest.
There were a few greenhouses and other ancillary buildings. There were even huts for owls.
In addition, there was a standard stadium. The audience seats were lined up. It was almost like the Colosseum in Rome.
It was incomparably brilliant and grand.
The highest points of the entire academy were three towers. One of them was an astronomical tower, and there was a huge telescope.
There were many steps in the castle. Some of the steps were wide and long, while others were narrow and short. They went on and on.
Other than that, there was a beautifully decorated door. It would open automatically when one walked in front of it.
There were also many paintings on the walls. The people in those paintings seemed to be alive.
There were knights, nobles, and ladies.
When the people in the paintings saw Lex, they all bowed to him.
When he entered the academy, he felt as though he had entered a world of magic.
There were luxurious castles, golden decorations, and countless crystal chandeliers on the dome.
In the middle of the academy was a large square, and there was a fountain that was more than ten meters tall in the square.
He walked around and felt that the academy was simply beautiful.
The equipments were not only magical but also modern technology. They were all cleverly hidden in inconspicuous places.
Just by looking at the place, one could feel that it was a top university.
There were student apartments and a cafeteria.
There were candles that lit up automatically when one walked over.
These products of modern technology magic made Lex feel like he was walking into a dream.
The food gushed out from the Holy Grail.
Any food he wanted would be available.
Moreover, the taste was quite delicious.
The best part was that the university would automatically clean up any rubbish. There was no need for extra staff to clean it up.
As long as Lex could think of something, the school would be equipped with it.
Regardless of whether it was the students or the teachers, they would all feel that this was the best university.
Now, the matter of the academy had been resolved perfectly.
However, the most important thing was that this academy was still too empty. There was everything but no one.
Since this was a magic academy, Lex had already made up his mind.
He did not intend to recruit teachers. He wanted to establish a free academy without a strict teacher system.
Everyone could be a student, and everyone could also be a teacher.
All the courses would be decided by the students themselves. He wanted to establish the world’s first academy without teachers.
Ordinary knowledge was not taught here, so the teachers outside had no effect at all.
This allowed the students to freely learn what they wanted to learn, instead of sticking to the strict teaching system.
That was the most important thing.
What he needed to do was to give them a platform, so that those who failed in the exam but were talented could learn magic, which could help them display their talents and imagination.
Since that was the case, he only needed to recruit students.
Right now was an opportunity. There were many students like him who could not go to university. They would be the first batch of students in the Magic Academy.
However, Kasage University had just been established, so no one knew about this school.
It was the same for him. It was his first time coming here.
It was a magic academy. How could ordinary people believe that there was a school that taught magic?
Even if the school had all the government certificates, it would still be difficult to recruit students.
At most, some people would think that this was some kind of weird drama academy.
Hence, Lex was not going to use the traditional method of recruiting students. Most importantly, Lex did not have anyone by his side.
He was the only one in the entire academy.
Even if he went around recruiting others, no one would believe him.
They would even treat him as a fool.
How could a person who did not even get into a university recruit other students?
Therefore, Lex could only choose one path, which was to recruit students online.
This was the fastest and most effective method.
What he wanted to recruit was not students with good results in the traditional sense.
Instead, it was the most talented, imaginative, and brilliant students.
Only those who believed in magic would come to the Magic Academy.
Otherwise, no matter what you said to a person, as long as they did not believe in magic in this world, they would think that you were a liar.
Therefore, he could only use the internet to recruit those who believed in magic to become students.
“System, help me establish a recruitment website!”
Lex knew that such a small matter was easy for the system.
After all, the system could create an entire academy, so a recruitment website was very simple.
As soon as he finished speaking, the system’s voice appeared:
[ Ding! The recruitment website has been established. Do you wish to publish it? ]
“Publish it!” Lex said.
