"Just stay here, you've been doing your best for this exam." Yato grabbed Ruth's hand before he could make a run from it and he continued by saying: "Don't let yourself defeat what you have worked for. Besides, our turn is soon to co."
Ruth has been hunting magical beasts for their cores every day and he has also used a large sum of platinum bars to purchase spellbooks and mana cores to hurriedly improve his strength. All of it was done to prove himself as an ace in this very exam.
As soon as Yato's said his words, Ruth finally ca to his senses. He thought,
'How could I allow a montary weakness to ruin my future? I just need to get by this exam and then I will reward myself with ten days of isolation!'
Ruth braced his chest, and turned to stare at Yato gratefully, "I will do my best in the assessnt examination. So you better give it yours all too. Show those bullies that you won't stay down no matter what."
In reply, Yato nodded his head. He replied, "That's what I have been working hard for!"
Yato was a half noble and half commoner. To be more exact, he was a whore son. Yato's background wasn't too complex. He was a descendant of a dium-sized noble family. His father, Robert was one with noble blood, that ca to favor his mother, Alisha. His mother fell head over heels for his father and accepted his hand in marriage; however, Alisha didn't know that the days of happiness will only last for a while after marriage. Robert still occasionally favored Alisha as she was pretty but she was rely one of his several concubines.
Furthermore, although Yato had Robert's blood coursing through his veins, it was mixed with the blood of the commoner. Nobles hated commoners and half-commoners like Yato has been a subject of this hate. Consequently, he was also at a disadvantage in the academy. He was bullied several tis. It could be seen from the many bruises and bandages on his body.
Nevertheless, he didn't give up hope. He tead up with Ruth to make money from hunting magical beasts and increased his strength for the assessnt examination.
"Group 77!"
"Our turn has arrived!"
Ruth nodded as they walked to the 7th wooden platform.
"Good, you are all here. The stone tablet of assessnt will let us know the results by the number it emits. If you have awakened this year, 400 units of mana are required for you to pass this test with an E grade. 500 mana ans you have earned a D grade. Similarly, an increase of mana by 100 units will an an increase in grade. Newly awakened students with 800 units of mana will be graded an A. 900 units of ans an S grade, and if you have reached the peak of F-rank you will be rewarded with the highest grade, S !"
The examiners explained before they started calling the mbers of the group one by one to get tested.
"Student Ruth! Please co to the center of the stage and place your hard on the stone tablet to get tested!"
"It's your turn. Do your best, I believe you will amaze the teachers." Yato said before Ruth made his way to the assessnt stone tablet.
Placing one of his hands on the stone tablet, Ruth poured one unit of his mana and the stone tablet activated.
A mysterious energy surged out of the stone tablet and directly entered Ruth's body. It made its way towards the mana pool and analyzed the volu of mana present in the mana pool. In a few seconds, the mysterious energy seed to have co to a conclusion and surged out of Ruth's body.
Simultaneously, a blue radiance emitted from the stone tablet. The stone tablet brightened and soon it dimd, returning back to normal; However, three digits ford from pure mana burned brightly in its center.
"999 units of Mana. The peak of F-rank!" The two examiners glanced at the number on the stone tablet and were impressed with Ruth. According to their information, Ruth has only awakened four months ago. In rely four months, he has reached the peak of F-rank.
He was a newly awakened student who has reached the peak of F-rank!
"Your result is S !"
They announced the test results. The first test followed a simple rule. The students who just awakened this year and reached the peak of the F-rank will be graded with S .
Ruth's lips thinned into a smile. He couldn't help but smile. Because this will secure him the resources ant for Elite students. However, there were still two more tests before the final results are announced.
After they announced the results, the students of this group all showed shock and envy.
"This classmate never stood out. How could he possibly be so talented?"
"What? Talented? He is lucky to have a rich dad and received all the necessary resources without doing anything. Otherwise, how could he possibly reach the peak of F-rank in rely four months!"
"I wish I also had such a supportive and rich family."
anwhile, the important figures of the Royal Frost Fall academy were looking at the holograms of the testing field.
Ruth's na suddenly appeared on top of the newly enlisted student list.
"Wow, S ! That's the highest grade on the first test of the assessnt examination. I thought that this kid was unremarkable; who would have thought that he has already reached the peak of F-rank. I was mistaken; deeply mistaken."
"That's really amazing! If he could get two more S , then he would be the top of the class among the newly awakened students of our academy!"
Logan and Andrew, the two teachers, showed interest in Ruth. They believe that this student might be the dark horse among the new students.
The yearly assessnt examination consisted of three parts.
The first part was the assessed a person's improvent. The second part tested their skills and strength. The third one tested combat tactics and hunting skills.
