(Principal Maven's POV)

Enjoy stories on m_v lem|p-yr

Principal Maven examined the final grades for all the students, his eyebrows raising in surprise as he reviewed the top three rankings.

While he had a good idea before the final exams commenced as to who the top student might be, the second and third place students were completely unexpected for him.

This year, not only were the top three students a surprise, but the overall performance of the entire batch was astonishing as well.

This cohort had achieved the highest average marks in the university's history which was saying something since this academic year had been anything but a smooth ride for all.

"So tough times do create strong individuals..." Maven commented to himself as he felt a wave of complicated emotions viewing this year's average result.

"Liam would've been proud of such a result. 92% pass rate, with over 75% students scoring more than 70% marks on average and over 40% having reached the 21st floor graduating benchmark already.

This is the best result the university has achieved in its entire history" Maven murmured to himself as he felt a bitter joy.

He was sad that Liam wasn't here to watch this amazing result in person and happy that the students performed so well at the same time.

"Well, I guess it's time to say goodbye to them then.....

The university has given them all it could and now it's time for them to leave this nest.

I'll increase the prize amount for the top three graduates this year as a generous gesture, because all three of them have exceeded all expectations" Maven decided, as he signed off on the final rank list and decided to post it on the results Billboard.

( Rocky's POV )

Today, was officially the last day for all students at the university and Rocky was packed and ready to leave, alongside Erin and Buhara, as the three of them had cleaned and emptied their dorm, leaving it in a better position than how they found it.

Since morning, the trio anxiously waited for the final results to be posted together, however, although it was past 9 am, the results had not been officially posted yet.

"I wonder what the delay is all about? I can't wait much more to see my rank–" Erin commented as he shifted excitedly from foot to foot, seeming anxious for the results.

"Buhara thinks Buhara will take first place! Buhara crushed all mages in the final exams" said Buhara as he began flexing his big orc muscles.

Rocky read this notification and slapped his head, it seemed like he needed to wait some more to utilize this new system feature.

"Results are out! Guys results are out!" Screamed Erin in excitement, as while Rocky was thinking to himself, Erin noticed the large crowd gathering in front of the results board and figured out that the grades must have been finally posted.

Running excitedly towards the board, Erin rushed to check who was the top rank and just like he expected, the name 'Rocky Yadav' shined brightly on the very top.

"SIR ROCKY! SIR ROCKY YOU ARE NUMBER ONE!" Erin screamed in joy as nothing excited him as much as seeing Rocky top the charts.

However, while Erin was happy about Rocky being number one, he was stunned to see who the rank 2 and 3 students were, as while he expected himself and Buhara to do well. He NEVER expected them to do so well.
