The school gate was made of refined steel and was painted in obsidian black. On each door were, neatly lined, several rows of large brass plates, showing the style of the famous compound.

Above the middle gate hung a huge plaque with two golden words "Profound Academy" written in bold and strong font.

At this time, only the pair of side doors next to the three main gates were open, and two students on duty stood on both sides of the gate. Wearing the exquisite black ice bird pattern uniform of Profound Academy, they looked very presentable. They had been studying in the academy for many years now, so they recognized the mage.

But knowing that he was a master who didn't have a good reputation in the school, they didn't take him seriously, and didn't even greet him.

Baldwin didn't pay attention to them, but walked in straight towards the centre of the academy. He had long been used to the attitude of others towards him, and didn't care about it.

At the center of the square was a huge statue of a black ice bird about to fly. Its long tail feathers were thrown behind it, showing its streamlined beauty. The Profound Bird looked and felt a bit like a phoenix, with a crown of feathers placed on its head. And with pieces of ice and snow drifting away behind it, the bird looked noble and elegant.

The statue was carved from white marble. It highlighted the dignity and pride of the Profound Bird. It was a display of pride above all other birds.

According to legend, this bird was the sacred creature summoned by the first grand elder of Profound Academy. The name of Profound Academy was also due to this creature.

Profound Academy covered an extremely wide area, with a length and width of about six or seven kilometers. There were gates on all the four sides of the north, south, east, and west, but only the eastern gate was the main gate of the school.

It was the same door where Baldwin came in.

The number of students in the academy exceeded five thousand, and they study and harness ether in the teaching areas designated by the academy according to the different magical attributes.

However, the eastern domain was the place where students who just entered the academy would stay to learn basic knowledge.

When their power level reached the stage of bronze, they would would be assigned to the corresponding teaching area according to their attributes to continue to develop until they reached the gold level, and they could then advance from the school.

Every academy on the continent basically had the bottom line for academic completions as a gold conveyor. As long as one could reach the stage, no matter how old one was, one would be able to get an advanced crest immediately.

Therefore, the age of the excelling students varies greatly. Some would be in their teens, while some were tens of years older. Then there were some who continued to practice their craft in the academy after graduation, and there were quite a number of them.

They were the main force sent by the academy to fight against the antherions.

Baldwin walked through the classrooms and dormitory buildings in the novice teaching area and moved towards the central area of the school. Some public facilities of the school were concentrated in the central area. Such as the library, combat arena, trading center and so on.

The fire mage went all the way to the library of the Profound Academy.

The library was a traditional brick building. From a distance, one could see a huge gabled roof. The roof was covered with gray tiles, and there were occasional green colour in it, which made the color of the whole roof elegant and soft.

In the middle of the roof was a green ridge, inlaid with small blue tiles, radiant under the illumination of the sun. The slope of the roof was soothing and smooth, adding a sense of stretch and generosity, which was quite pleasant and elegant.

A circle of corridors was structured under the eaves, all supported by huge red lacquered pillars. The doors and windows on all four sides were lightly carved from gray-black iron wood, and were elegantly decorated without any paint. Above the main entrance hung a plaque of golden colour, with one big word "Library" written on it.

The whole architectural style of the place did not triumph in richness and luxury, but was known for its lightness and elegance, showing a kind of ancient refined style.

Baldwin pushed open the door and entered. There was a lot of space in the library, with many people reading books, but it was very quiet.

One thing was obvious. The areas were divided according to the types of books.

Baldwin went directly to the "Historical Materials" area and started searching through the records.

There were lot of books in this area. It was a collection of various historical materials and biography of platinum and titanium conveyors collected by masters and students from all walks of life through different channels since the establishment of the school of more than five thousand years.

The contents were so rich that if any student wanted to read them all, it would be impossible to achieve it without spending hundreds, if not thousands, of years.

Because of the huge collection of books, Baldwin was not sure he would be able to find the answers he wanted in a short time, so he made arrangements in advance with the branch.

After picking more than a dozen materials from the bookshelf, he found a seat, and then carefully began to go through the contents.
