Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 476 - 185 Discussion Within Saint Yingo
Saint Ingo Academy, Board of Directors.
The spacious conference room was enveloped in soft lighting, its golden veined dome complemented by the transparent, beige material at the center, reminiscent of the inside of a flower bud—quite elegant.
The venerable Saint Ingo Academy is envied by outsiders for its history and cultural heritage; many of its buildings were designed by famous figures in federation history. As the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain branch of Saint Ingo, it followed this style and design.
"The recent singer rankings for Hexia have come out, roughly between Starshine Level and Starry Sky Level," a director said as he clicked on the projection screen in front of him, enlarging the materials for everyone at the table.
"Singer rankings are generally classified into three tiers: Sun, Moon, Star. These break down into Star Sprout Level, Starshine Level, Starry Sky Level, Crescent Moon Level, Glowing Moon Level, Full Moon Level, Rising Sun Level, Radiant Sun Level, and Blazing Sun Level."
"Most singers start their careers at Star Sprout Level and after some time spent learning and training, are able to stabilize their talent and control it with ease, reaching Starshine Level. If they can intensely resonate their heart and emotions, causing a large-scale response at the scene, they are considered to have entered the Starry Sky Level."
"At Moon Level, even if listeners and viewers are not present at the scene, they can still be affected by the singer’s performance. Although this affect is less than one-tenth of the live experience, it far surpasses other singers and stars."
"A Glowing Moon Level singer can stimulate transcendent beings’ consciousness to a self-forgetful and almost devoted status. This is what people often refer to as bringing out one’s full potential with undivided focus. A singer at this stage has a voice that possesses a kind of magical infective effect."
"A Full Moon Level singer has the power to spread and cover dozens of kilometers, causing each person to rise with her voice inside them. As for singers who reach this rank, the federation has a tradition of holding a ’Coronation Ceremony’ in the Central Star Domain, which countless people will attend to watch her perform."
"As for levels above Sun Level, these are realms not tread by mortals. According to current records, when a Radiant Sun Level singer is on a Titan-class flagship, she can utilize the ’Throne’ within the flagship to influence all sentient life within the entire Star Domain."
"Color Level singers are even capable of confronting the ’Black Sun’ directly through resonance with their billions of followers, without fear of the opponent."
A director introduced relevant information about Hexia and along the way, explained the standards and significance of the singer rankings.
"Based on the analysis of historical records of singers, the fact that Hexia could almost reach the Starry Sky Level at the age of 17 when she just debuted suggests that her potential is excellent, with a more than 68% probability of reaching Moon Level in the next 20 years."
"If Hexia becomes a Moon Level singer, she will undoubtedly attract attention from various parties within the federation during this era when Moon Level singers are scarce."
"In other words, opposing her would not be a wise move," one of the directors analyzed calmly.
"That’s correct," affirmed the standing director who had been giving the exposition.
"However, capitulating to Edith Academy in this competition will not sit well with anyone here."
"This is not just about conceding in terms of reputation and verbally, but once we lose our leadership, the environment of the entire Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain will undergo drastic changes, and it will be impossible to retain the present situation."
"Moreover, they and we share the same origin, if they gradually gain the upper hand, and even suppress us, another thing will happen," the same director said, pushing his glasses up, looking at his colleagues around the table.
"That is, the name ’Saint Ingo’ will be transferred to them."
"They will become the new ’Saint Ingo’. If the connection to the main school in the Central Star Domain and us is severed, we will have nothing left without the support of the Central Star Domain," he concluded.
"This…" Many people present fell into silence, because this was indeed a possibility.
As the main academy of the Central Star Domain ’Saint Ingo,’ which is a behemoth within the Federation representing the surname of the Elf Royal Family, ’Saint Ingo’ brought together a large number of traditional federal forces. Behind it were many ancient Elf Race families and allied powers. They were among the earliest ones to follow Isenisha in establishing the Federation and were the inheritors of Isenisha’s will, venturing to various barren Star Domains to explore planets and build homes.
Even as a force that was suppressed and weakened by ’Cobalt Blue Tears’ Emuralin during the civil war four hundred years ago, they still wielded significant influence within the Federation. After all, their contributions were undeniable, and they were the most loyal and core foundation of the Federation.
Residents who took the time to learn and understand the Federation’s history could easily feel the cultural undertone of the nation, greatly influenced by the Elves and the World Tree. Especially notable was the way Elves named planets after Elven mythology and legends during their colonization efforts. ’Jade Skirt’ came from the legendary ’Dew Skirt’ of the Elf Queen, who, it is said, in the distant past, snuffed out the flames and embers of the world with her Dew Skirt, leading the Elves out from beneath the protection of the World Tree, defeating Giant Thrones and ushering in the First Era.
If the persuasive power represented by the name Saint Ingo were lost, they would indeed be abandoned. Without the support of the Central Star Domain’s power, relying solely on the assets and influence of the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain would be like a rootless duckweed, easily overturned and crushed.
After half a minute of silence at the meeting, someone finally spoke up.
"We must retain the first-place position. The other side may have a Songstress assisting, but Hexia is only 17 years old, and it will be a long time before she reaches Moon Level. Given the current Star Rank Songstress, her influence on others is limited and not necessarily enough to reverse the situation."
"Just give it three years, and she will graduate and leave. At that time, what can Edith Academy rely on?"
His words kindled a touch of hope in the hearts of those present, not as pessimistic as they were at the start.
"It’s time to place a heavy bet. In the next three years, I suggest increasing the budget for student training by threefold, no, fivefold."
"I refuse to believe Edith Academy can turn things around relying on an underage Songstress."
"While a Songstress at the Starshine Stage can bless her companions and teammates with various effects and abilities, her own combat power remains scarce and fragile."
"Take ’Flame Sugar’ Prin Coco from Swarm’s Reign, for instance. In one-on-one combat, she ranks only within the top 80 of her grade, far from those outstanding talents."
"A Songstress’s talent is just that—a talent for a Songstress, not indicative of genius in other areas. Nowadays, many Songstresses in the Federation are stuck at Sequence 6, and very few have broken through to Sequence 7. Even with a Songstress’s ability enhancement, they cannot win duels against those true transcendent talents."
"Besides, in this year’s new batch of first-year students, don’t we have two with Perfect Level talent? If they are well cultivated, recreating the glorious miracles from Temisia’s times is not out of the question."

"We shouldn’t be too pessimistic, everyone. A Songstress does have a powerful influence, but such an impact also needs time to ferment and develop. The current Hexia is far from reaching that stage."
"By the time she has, she will already have graduated for many years."
"Exactly, once she graduates, everything will be over."
"It’s just three short years. Can it really change the landscape of Four-leaf Crystal?" The directors on scene contemplated this and suddenly felt that their previous anxiety was somewhat overblown.
After all, she was just a child, and they were the adults wielding the real power.
