The trip towards Flying Mountain with the Eagle Flyingboats would take around 4 to 5 hours.

The reason for the long travel is actually not because the Eagle Flyingboats were slow. In fact, it is already considered really fast.

To be honest, Eagle Flyingboat is actually not just any ordinary Flying boat. According to the list of Flyingboats listed by the Aurora Empire, one of the powerful Human Empires, the Eagle Flyingboat is actually listed as the top 50 fastest flying boats invented by the Human race amongst the 100 invented flying boats.

It is also not because the distance between Green Weed city and Flying Mountain is really far that's why it would take 4 to 5 hours of travel. Actually, the distance is just a few hundreds of kilometers, something that an Eagle Flyingboat can travel in a span of 2 hours.

The real reason is actually because the Captains of the Eagle Flyingboats needed to follow a specific route.

They are going to travel within the Shark Cemetery territory. Even the sky is not safe from the Magical Beast Sharks, since powerful Magical Beast Sharks can fly around the sky.

In fact, it's really dangerous, since they will only be faced with powerful Magical Beast Sharks! Though traveling in the ocean is still much more dangerous, since powerful, weak, or other Magical Beast Sharks with an unknown strength could attack them any moment. Unlike the skies where they can already expect what kind of Magical Beast Sharks will attack them since they can see them clearly.

Nevertheless, the sky or the ocean, it is still dangerous!

That's why the Captains of the Eagle Flyingboats needs to travel in a specific route in order for them to avoid meeting powerful Magical Beast Sharks.

Each space of the sky above the Shark Cemetery is owned by a different kind of Magical Beast Sharks. Hence naturally each space would have different kinds of dangers.

Throughout the years of traveling from Green Weed city to Floating Mountain, the Captains that work under the Green Eagle Flyingboat Yard already familiarized themselves around the sky above the Shark Cemetery.

Although they can't do anything to avoid meeting the Magical Beast Sharks flying above the Shark Cemetery, they can at least minimize the danger that they will face. And the cost of minimizing that danger is time.

Unlike the land, the sky allows all sorts of movements.

Traveling on the land, a person can only travel 12 different directions just like the clock. They can still go up though if there is a mountain or go down if there is a hole leading underground. However, if there is none of those two, then the likely direction would only be 12 different directions.

On the other hand, the sky allows a person to travel all sorts of direction simply because the sky is an open space. Go up and down, 12 different directions basing the clock, and many more kinds of movements are possible.

It is through this movement why the Captains can minimize the danger. If a specific space is the territory of the Magical Beast Fierce Tiger Shark, a 7 Star Magical Beast, then the Captains would just go really up above the sky, so that they can easily avoid them.

However, traveling really high up in the sky is also not safe. The sky is an open space, and any part of it would naturally have other kinds of Magical Beast Sharks living around. Hence, the moment the Captains successfully avoid that danger by choosing to face a smaller danger, they would go down once again if they will face a territory of another powerful Magical Beast Shark.

That is the reason why the Eagle Flyingboats would take 4 to 5 hours to travel from Green Weed city to Floating Mountain despite the distance just being a few hundreds of kilometers.

.....

At this moment, Leo was looking at the sky.

From time to time, he could spot all sorts of Magical Beast Sharks, like a Sapphire Hammerhead Shark, Cloud Shark, Tentacle Shark, and many more different kinds along the way.

Fortunately, those kinds of Magical Beast Sharks doesn't dare to attack the group of Eagle Flying boats. Obviously, they could feel a lot of powerful presence within the Eagle Flying boats. Hence, as a Magical Beast, they don't dare attempt an attack as stupid as that.

To be honest, !side from the 18 teachers of Silver Mage Academy, the Eagle Flyingship's Captains, and First Mate were all-powerful individuals, specifically, the lowest was even a 3 Star Mage and the highest, the Captains of this Eagle Flyingboat, is a 5 Star Mage.

Although, they can't be compared to the Silver Mage Academy teachers, where the lowest was a 4 Star Mage and the highest is a 6 Star Mage, a powerful group such as the Captains and First Mate was still something not to be underestimated about.

"This is getting boring..." Leo can't help but murmur. Although it's an astonishing sight to look at all sorts of different Magical Beast Sharks, but due to not having any sort of fight at all, he can't help but felt bored right now.

Moreover, he also wanted to know just how powerful were the teachers of the Silver Mage Academy. Just like the goal of the teachers prior to embarking the Eagle Flyingboats, Leo also wanted to know about the teachers.

His Master Olivia had told him not to underestimate the Mages, but how can he know what to be wary about if he doesn't even know their capability, right? Especially since his Master Olivia had only told him a few things about the Mages. She obviously did it on purpose in order to let him find out about those capabilities in his own ways.

Suddenly though, the moment Leo turned around, Alfred was suddenly thrown towards his direction.

Leo quickly helped Alfred to stand back up, as he looked towards those students who had pushed the latter to him.

"He said you are the most powerful of Class 1S-, is that right?��� A student that Leo was familiar with said.

"You are Zhu Long, right?" Leo asked as he wanted to confirm if he said his name correctly or not...

He had seen this person in one of those Class 1E- papers that teacher Marvin had told them to pay attention to, specifically the lowest in the rank, but he just can't remember whether it was really Zhu Long, Zhu Rong, Zhou Xiyi, or something similar to that. It's a Chinese name, so it's not easy for him to remember, especially since he only knew one other Chinese person, Butler Xiao.

"Yes!" The student named Zhu Long said, "Are you scared now?"

"I just wanted to confirm since I might accidentally call you something that I don't know about," Leo paused as he thought for a bit, "Like I might call you Candle Salamander or Candle Lizard(1), right?"

"You..." Zhu Long was speechless at Leo's usage of words.

Leo just shrugged it off as he said, "I just answered your question, why are you speechless like that? You should be mad or pissed about it!" he then smiled mischievously.

"Forget about that," Zhu Long calmed his mind as he continued, "Let's compare notes!"

Leo can't help but chuckle for a bit before he wipes the tears of his eyes and said, "We are Mages, not Martial Artist or Knights! So what's up with that 'Let's compare notes!' bullcrap, hahaha!"

"Fuck it! Let's have a fight!" Zhu Long finally can't hold it off.

Leo just rolled his eyes at Zhu Long's reaction. He was the one that asked for a verbal battle, right? So, he should not be angry and act like an unreasonable person!

"I'm not interested..." Leo said as he turned around and walk away from trouble. Unfortunately, his path was quickly blocked by Zhu Long and his men. Hence he can't walk away anymore.

"Oh, you're scared?" Zhu Long said, obviously mocking Leo's seemingly feeling scared sort of act.

"I have a Chinese friend that told me once... If ever you want to trash talk a Chinese person, just say," Leo turned around to face Zhu Long as he continued, "I bought a watch last year!(2)"

"You dare swear my mom!" Zhu Long was suddenly enraged as he charged straight towards Leo.

"So it's swearing someone else's mother!" Leo said as he quickly dodges to the side.

Zhu Long's charge was really fast and powerful, so when Leo suddenly and successfully dodged to the side, Zhu Long can't help it anymore due to his speed as he went directly straight towards the wooden railing and destroyed it.

Fortunately, though, Leo wasn't intending to kill anyone. So, the moment Zhu Long destroyed the railing and was definitely going to fall off from the Eagle Flyingship and straight towards Shark Cemetery, he quickly holds Zhu Long's clothes as he pulled him back up to his side.

"Think before you act, stupid!" Leo yelled at Zhu Long.

Zhu Long breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at Leo and scratched his head embarrassingly, "Sorry..."

"I don't know the meaning about 'I bought a watch last year' so I also want to apologize..." Leo said as he helped Zhu Long to stand up.

Zhu Long took the hand as he said, "It's a Chinese slang that meant, I'll f*ck your mother!"

Leo looked at Zhu Long as he can't help but laugh. He finally wipes his tears off as he said, "You're a funny guy! You already made me laugh two times, this time alone!"

"Likewise!" Zhu Long went to shake Leo's hand.

"You were sent to test my strength, right?" Leo finally went back to the main topic.

"Yeah..." Zhu Long nodded his head embarrassingly. He finally realized that causing trouble to a person like Leo was so stupid of him. Leo is smart, hence it's not easy to test his strength by just simply doing such a seemingly unreasonable action.

"Just tell your leader this, Leo is not strong, and he is only smart!" Leo said as he voluntarily revealed information about him.

"Is that really true?" Zhu Long asked dubiously, "Teacher Lee also said something like that to us when he was discussing about your strength. But it's dubious for a person with such capability like yours!"

"You will know about it when the trial competition starts!" Leo said as he finally left the place.

Zhu Long just shook his head helplessly as he also left the place along with his men. There was nothing to do here anymore and he already got what he wanted. Hence, it was time to report to their leader.

Alfred at the side was only staring dumbfounded at what just happened. He really thought that Leo and Zhu Long were going to fight until one loses, however, it seems like they only talk for a bit and it was all settled just like that.

Thinking for a bit, Alfred finally thought of something, "Smart people doesn't fight with their fist, but with their minds!"

(Author's note:

(1) Zhu means "Candle" and Long mean "Dragon", so literally Zhu Long's name is "Candle Dragon". However, the Rong I used here means "Salamander" and the Xiyi means "Lizard". I only used Google translator, so forgive me if I'm wrong...

(2) I bought a watch last year is a chinese slang, I think.... that meant, "I f*ck your mother".)
