The opening speech lasted nearly two hours. A boring two hours of endless discussion. Some information was useful, and some were not. Because of that, Leo became really bored to the point that he had let out a yawn from time to time, though he was still trying his best to focus on listening.
Cassandra was always pinching Leo's hand every time when he let out a yawn, which also made him focus on listening. She told him that she can feel hundreds of eyes observing the entire stadium. Though it was just a feeling, he would still take it into consideration.
Luckily, Leo believed on Cassandra ...
After the two hours of boring speech, the hundreds of teachers hiding inside the secret rooms of the huge stadium flew out from the top of the stadium, finally revealing their presence to every students.
It was only at this moment that every students realized that there were actually teachers present inside the stadium. They had really thought that there wasn't any teachers present. Though some had also suspected that the teachers were just blending in along with the student. But, it was really out of their expectations that the teachers were actually just inside hundreds of secret rooms in the top of the stadium.
Immediately, one of the teachers landed onto the stage. This teacher was in his sixties, and a six star badge was hanging out on his clothes. It obviously mean that this teacher was a Six Star rank Mage, one of the highest-ranking Mage of the Silver Mage Academy.
”I'm Steven, one of the three Vice Chairmans of the Silver Mage Academy.” The old introduces himself before looking at the student's reaction.
The students were immediately shock to realize that it wasn't only teachers that were observing them, but there was actually also a Vice Chairman of the Silver Mage Academy present.
Realizing that he has achieved his first intention, Vice-chairman Steven continued his speech, ”A lot of you might wonder why were there a lot of teachers hiding inside the stadium, and even a Vice Chairman was hiding among them? What is their purpose? Why did they hide? And such likes of questions..? The answer to those questions is simply because, we are doing it to secretly assess each one of you!”
”You might ask right now. Well, how do we assess? How does it work? What are the criteria? Simply put, it was just based on how you had behave in today's speech.”
Realizing that this was the rumored Hidden Assessment, all the students immediately wear grave expression on their faces. Especially those students who didn't pay attention to the student representatives speech. Their faces were the ugliest of all at this moment.
Contrary to the masses, Leo at this moment was calm and relax. He can't help but to secretly breath a sigh a of relief. Through Cassandra's constant warning, he was doing an act to always listen to the student representatives speech. The one thing he was really afraid of happening when she was constantly reminding him was exactly what the Vice Chairman said, Hidden Assessment!
Leo had naturally heard of the Hidden Assessment done by every Royal Mage Academy. Hence, he knew that if he failed on such assessment, he will not be able to become an official student of the Mage Academy.
It really terrified Leo, thinking that he won't be accepted by Silver Mage Academy. So, he had always thought of being careful throughout this entire time.
The stadium immediately began getting loud as some students let out voices of protest and disagreements. But, all of their selfish thoughts were just ignored.
If these teachers really answer them, then they would only say this; ”Do you really think we care about your protest and disagreements? If you don't like it, then go and establish your own Mage Academy!”
The voices of protest and disagreements was immediately disrupted by the Vice Chairman.
”Only the students who has a portal to appear in front of them are now enrolled as an official student of Silver Mage Academy. Congratulations for those who had passed, and please proceed to the other Mage Academies for those who don't!” The old man said, signaling the end of his speech.
After the speech was finished, portals suddenly started appearing in front of some students.
Those who didn't have a portal appearing in front of them became depressed, really depressed. While those who had a portal became joyous and excited.
However, things wouldn't always go as what the Vice-chairman had pleased...
At this moment, those students who didn't pass immediately started to create a ruckus.
