The exams went on without any issues, and by the time it was late noon, everyone had battled already, and those that had passed the exams were seated in the stands.
Amongst them were mostly nobles, and a few commoners. That much was expected—nobles always had better training and better bloodlines.
Now that the exams were done, the instructor walked to the center of the arena and began speaking.
"All of you that stand here are the best of the best. You went against the odds and came out on top.
You have all passed and now you'll be admitted into the academy. As of today, you'll all be set in temporary dorm rooms until your ranks are determined.
Those strips on your hands have secretly been grading you and have been coming up with your rank out of two hundred and fifty.
These ranks will decide what class you will get and what treatment you will receive. All that will be talked about more in depth in the orientation that will hold tomorrow.
