Chapter 60: 060. Midterm Evaluation (2)
The midterm evaluation, ironically named "assessment," has a rather simple testing method.
First, the students to be evaluated are selected, and then they are randomly matched in a tournament according to their classes.
For example, if a student is in the lowest class, Class D, they must start from Class D and ultimately defeat the top students in A-Class to win.
Some have claimed that this testing method is unfair. However, what truly matters is not winning the tournament, but whether one can prove their abilities in combat against their opponent.
Surprisingly, the evaluation takes place publicly. The numerous spectators surrounding Veris were a testament to that.
[ The next student, please come up to the arena. B-Class, Maria Theresa von Winsburg de Vera. C-Class, John Tains. ]
A loud voice echoed from the magical loudspeaker at the evaluation site. The audience members sitting in the stands looked ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) at the arena with bewildered expressions.
"What? Maria Theresa? Is there really someone by that name in B-Class?"
"Wait a minute. That name belongs to the royal family..."
"The princess, I can't believe she's in B-Class."
Maria, whose existence had been shrouded in mystery, with rumors swirling around her but few having seen her in person, suddenly had her name called, causing the spectators to gasp in surprise.
Clack, clack.
