The distance between sector 3 and the academy, located in sector one, was immense. To reach there, every person had to either drive or fly in an airship.

For obvious reasons, no teleportation was allowed into the academy or even from hundreds of kilometers away from the border of sector one. Despite the airship's high speed, it would still take about a day to reach the destination.

During this day, Atticus met up and caught up with Nate and Lucas. He had decided not to train too hard today as he had no idea what to expect when they reached the academy.

He also used this time to find out more information about other sectors. The journey was completely peaceful without any problems.

And without him even noticing, the day passed in the blink of an eye.

…

In the entire human domain, there was only one academy.

The human domain spanned across millions of kilometers with billions of inhabitants, with the inhabitants increasing daily.

The fact that this vast domain with so many people had just a single academy, where every youth turning 15 had to attend, should be enough to understand the sheer size and scale of the academy.

There were no exceptions to this rule. The world had advanced to the extent that disabilities amongst even the 'poor' were almost nonexistent, and every child expected to be 15 would be retrieved if they didn't show. They were all accepted into the academy regardless of talent.

Given the sheer size of the human domain, it was no surprise that at a very large expanse just at the border of sector 1, was teeming with millions of youths from every single sector.

And just at the front of the expanse, there was a spherical blue translucent shield that encompassed the entire sector 1 from the ground up.

This was the infamous Aeigis shield that the alliance had used to repel the aliens.

It was kept on 24/7, always protecting the academy from outside forces. No one could teleport in or out of the shield as long as it was running; not even a paragon could get past it.

But anyone even the least bit observant would notice an oddity: the complete and total absence of adults in the area. Every single person in the expanse was a 15 year old youth.

In this expanse, there were different landing spots for airships of different sizes. And periodically, airships of all sizes would land quickly, dropping off more youths and taking off back immediately afterwards.
