Right next to the giant statue of King Martin that was placed at the center of the academy grounds was a small podium, high enough for anyone to see the entire crowd if they stood on it.
On top of the podium, a small, round, colorless orb was placed.
This was known as a sound amplifier, mainly used to address a large number of people.
As soon as the students noticed a scary woman climbing the podium to address them, they all organized themselves and moved closer.
Including those who were close to Sylus and Lumberg at the time.
Everyone knew how strict the academy was, especially during special events such as this.
If they found a student being unserious or not cooperating, it could mean immediate expulsion from the examination.
No one wanted that, which was why they were always on their best behavior.
Unfortunately, these rules only applied to those who were either commoners or lesser nobles.
People like Sylus were deemed capable of doing as they pleased.
