The book had only about thirty pages, which didn't take very long to read. A big part of the book was about rules regarding fighting, attending lessons, how to obtain Contribution Points, the functions of the room, and some general information.

From what Shang had read, fighting with one's weapon was forbidden, but fighting without a weapon was fine. The reason for such a choice was to preserve the killing intent in someone. If someone used their killing tool to spar with others a lot, they might lose their killing intent.

Because of that, the academy tried to preserve the killing intent of the weapon. One should only draw one's weapon when one intended to kill someone.

Of course, there were exceptions. For example, two students could schedule an official spar at any of the training areas. In that case, they could use their weapon.

But wait, how did that differ from just fighting normally? After all, it was also just a spar.

The difference was that the students had to fight with the intent of killing the other person. It was not in their responsibility to keep the opponent safe. The observing teacher would be responsible for keeping the loser alive.

So, the student would still be fighting with the goal of killing their opponent. It was just that the opponent would survive due to outside intervention.

Attending lessons was surprisingly completely optional. No student was forced to attend the lessons.

This rule existed to teach students responsibility.

On earth, something like this wouldn't really work. After all, the consequences of getting bad grades weren't immediate as long as someone didn't fail the grade. This made the danger distant, making the student feel like they weren't actually in danger.

But here, it would have very real consequences. Due to the first rule, bullying and ganging up on others were allowed. If a teacher saw five kids beating up a younger student, they wouldn't intervene.

However, the survival of that student would also be under the assailants' responsibilities. If they killed a student without a good reason, the assailants would be executed by the academy.

Even more, if someone didn't have a warrior's body, they would need to go to the resident Water Mage to get themselves healed, and the cost of the treatment would need to come out of their own pocket.

So, it was literally possible to push someone into impossible poverty. If someone made some serious enemies, they could be suppressed into always being forced to remain in their rooms in the academy. This would stop them from attending lessons, earning money, and training.

How did one get out of such a situation?

That was not the academy's problem.

Strength ruled supreme. Either the students would become powerful or break.
