Chapter 63: The purpose of the exam

After a while, the race ended and all the students were excluded from the boundary of the track.

As the healers healed the fatally wounded students, as well as while some of the participants received immediate healing, instructor Alex snapped his fingers and said some words to separate the space around the other two instructors from the rest of the room under the command of his guardian.

In one of the three spectator's seats, one could only see the middle-aged instructor, Alex relaxing with his eyes closed and his right cheek placed on the back of one of his hands. The students couldn't see or hear instructor Kayle and instructor Theodore as they were now in a space of their own, separated from the others present inside instructor Alex's ability kingdom.

Inside the separated space, the two instructors logged in to the special online platform of the military academy. After a few authentication procedures such as iris and ability cells scan, they finally accessed it.

Immediately after, a lot of holographic screens showing a group of people popped up in front of the two instructors. The group of people were either instructors or high-ranking members of the Military Academy—some hailed from the world of Lorena and planet Earth while the rest hailed from the mighty Avalon Empire and the Great Royal Ambrose Family.

"We've been waiting for you."

The Dean of the military academy located in the world's connecting space between planet Earth and the world of Lorena, Tirion Avalon, spoke as he looked at instructor Theodore from behind the holographic screen.

"I hope you didn't have to wait for too long," Theodore replied with an amiable smile, and he continued a moment later, "Let's briefly summarize the outcome of the entrance examination held throughout the two worlds before recommending a newly enlisted student to nurture using this year's resource. After that, provide at least a single good reason as to why you've selected a student to nurture using this year's resources."

Before the beginning of the entrance examination of the military academy, the instructors of the military academy had come up with many creative ways to test the students in different cities established throughout the two worlds.

This year, the purpose of the entrance examination was to filter talented and hard-working youngsters from uncluttered swine while taking six things into account when accepting students: sensitivity to energy, strength, mental fortitude, character, intelligence, and agility, after all.

Obtaining a final result of Three to Twenty points allows an examinee to become an outer circle student. After all, these were considered as barely passing marks. The outer circle students weren't given any special privileges. They couldn't immediately participate in specialization class. They could only participate in beta classes such as physical or ability training as they lacked adequate strength. On the other hand, a person with more than twenty points can participate in alpha classes such as specialization class as soon as they join the military academy.

The students that specialize in a certain new world's subject are among the ones most probable to become inner circle students within a year or two.

Lastly, a pair of instructors could recommend examinees that scored more than 40 points in the entrance examination for the newly created nurturing plan. The students recommended for this plan will receive the best teachings and the highest amount of resources for half a year. Such newly enlisted students had the highest chance to become inner circle students within a year.

Ethan, the director of strategy came up with this plan to efficiently allocate the federation resources to the ones most worthy. After all, the academy's main focus has shifted from nurturing dozens of elites to producing someone remotely close to the unforgettable king of time, a God worshipped by the followers of the Temple of Kronos.

"I only have good news. First off, I'm glad to announce that not a single commoner and descendants of war slaves performed well enough to enter the Alpha Class. Secondly, dozens of nobles and royals scored good enough to enter the Alpha Class." The instructor in charge of the subject of evolution, Nicolas, briefly summarised the outcome of the entrance exam that took place in the cities under his jurisdiction.

A decent number of the present individuals smiled indicating that they were happy that the commoners weren't selected for the Alpha class.

In this day and age, there well a lot of people that liked to discriminate against a person based on his status. This type of ugliness was bred in a lot of noble houses and it has also found its way to the military academy. The alpha class has limited seats. A lot of instructors felt that the Alpha Class should only have places for the glorious descendants of the noble and royal families. The descendants of commoners and war slaves should be happy that they can receive formal education in the beta classes.

Hearing the words of Nicolas, the eyebrows of Ethan and Tirion raised in dissatisfaction. They didn't say anything as they didn't want to raise a conflict of interest and ideology or start a useless debate on such a happy occasion.

After a moment, Nicolas continued, "Lastly, I want to recommend these five students for this year's nurturing plans. You'll understand my reasons for recommending them after you take a look at their performance."

He motioned the slaves that serve him day and night to play the recordings.

After a few moments, the recorded performance of the five students Nicolas recommended began playing in the holographic screens.

The members attending this meeting watched the performance of the five students with deep concentration. One could see their expression changing from respect and admiration to awe.

By the time the recordings stopped playing in the holographic screens, the instructor only had words of praise for the students recommended by him.

"All of them are not only talented but they also belong to the great royal family and the Avalon Empire!" Instructor Nicolas said after a few moments. "I sincerely hope that all five of them will be selected for the newly created nurturing plan!"
