The lives of billions of civilians in the Holy Light Empire are largely predetermined.
A civilian child typically enters a local elementary academy at the age of six or seven to study academics and martial arts. On one hand, they must master knowledge in math, literature, and governance, while on the other, they must practice Body Skills and Combat Skills.
The elementary academy follows an eight-year curriculum, during which a person's talent, intelligence, and capabilities are fully displayed.
If one excels in martial arts, they naturally proceed to the martial arts program of a secondary academy for further studies. After three years, if they pass the martial arts assessment for higher academies and obtain professional certification, their future is undoubtedly promising.
Those lacking martial arts aptitude but possessing high intelligence can specialize in clerical positions, which still offer great employment prospects.
