[Cruise Ship]
Inside of the huge auditorium room of the cruise ship, hundreds of people are currently watching the events that happens inside the island through the huge screen right in front of them. This screen project the main events that currently happens on the island, as if displaying the most memorable battles.
Right now they are currently watching the 5th day of the survivors on the island. Even though they weren't there to personally witness the huge battle that had taken place, the tension that was being emitted through the screen was enough to even send chills on their bones.
One after another, the battle in island just kept them on the edge of their seat, especially the instructors.
"Its only day 5 and yet a lot of them are already eliminated, should we label this as incompetence or they are just that too many competent students?"
"At this point the exam would end ahead of schedule"
"I believe that the students are just too strong... aside from Gritonnia Academy, Orbium Academy, and Ascalon Academy having their own powerhouse, Ballad Academy, Horoscious Academy, and Elludkal Academy are doing great themselves"
"Yeah! They're holding up pretty well despite not having a powerhouse student on their midst"
"I think these balance are all thanks to the three powerhouse staying neutral from involving themselves in a skirmishes between academy"
"Yeah maybe because of that, but one can't deny that when all three ofbthem starts to move and fight, they do somehow have impeccable capability to work together smoothly as if they have already worked together for so long"
"Well maybe because the three of them know each other too well... after all each of them regarded each other as rivals"
"I did hear to some of the students that the three of them often encounter one another even outside their own respected Academy... for example did you guys hear the news about the kingdom of Avalon a few months ago?"
"A few months ago? Well yeah! I heard that the kingdom itself was attacked by the terrorist during the royal conference... the world is really too chaotic... why did you ask?"
"Well apparently Shun from Gritonnia Academy and Akito from Orbium Academy were involved in that battle and somehow made significant contribution during the terrorist subjugation"
"What?!?!?!"
"Seriously?!?!"
"Students involved in a national affair? And they somehow became its significant force in the subjugation? These kids are incredible"
"Well that's not the only one, according to some eyewitness that Lorius from Ascalon Academy also conquered one of the unconquered dungeon in the north in a matter of a month"
"All three of them are making a name for themselves... at this point all three of them would be important figure in the future, this kingdom is really blessed in the future to produce three talented people"
"I heard that the royal family are preparing a suitable title for the three of them... the swordsaint, the grand caster, and the legend"
"Such imposing titles... they're gonna need to work harder to prove their worthiness"
"But instead their strength already proven enough?"
"Indeed but they lack achievements, they need more in order to acquire such titles"
"The future of the kingdom is bright"
As the professors talked about their opinion towards the surviving students, the students inside the auditorium watching the events unfold begun discussing among themselves. Such discussions are unavoidable due to the fact that the events just kept getting better the longer the exam continues on.
"The fights just kept getting better"
"Better? Shut up! The battle before this vampire thing is much better, you can't deny that the battle between the three battle genius against that black swordsman really is the pinnacle of the battles we have seen"
"Well... I... I... um... I can't deny that, the battle with the black swordsman is really exhilarating, it took three of them working together just to bring down one monster, you can just imagine just how tense the atmosphere was... imagine three battle genius fighting against a monster... I really can't help but get excited"
"Yeah! But don't forget about that Akito dude fighting one on one against that Samurai monster in the middle of a field... absolute theatrics"
"Yeah that really hyped us up... In fact I also remember that the auditorium wasn't that full during that fight not like today, maybe that's the reason why only few of us could enjoy that scenery"
"Do you know why you guys had that privilege? Because you guys were eliminated in day 1, pathetic!!!"
"WA!?!?! Oh crap your right! We're students eliminated at day 1 our grades are screwed"
"As if your one to talk, your also eliminated"
"Yes! But I was eliminated at day 4, so my grades are going to be better than you guys"
"God dammit!!!"
"My pops gonna kill me when I get home"
"Atleast you have a home, I might get kicked out if I fail to graduate"
"Its not our fault the enemy's are strong"
"Yeah! Its not your fault, but you guys are weak"
"Unlucky, I prefer the term unlucky!!!"
While the students discussed things that involve the test and their future, Iris herself couldn't help but sympathize as she was eliminated at day 2. Just like the guys on the level below, she too was in danger of being scolded by her parents if she fails to graduate.
At that point she just hoped that she could turn back time and hide in an even better spot. Nevertheless despite being eliminated early, she still couldn't help but get mesmerized by seeing Akito struggle to stay alive.
She knew that Akito was strong, however his other peers like Shun and Lorius are also strong and have insane abilities. Equipped with a simple sword and his swordskills, he was able to contend against the others and earned the other parties respect.
She just didn't expect that the other two battle genius would actually help him and watch his back whenever they are facing an enemy. She doesn't understand why, but it seemed like Akitl trusted both Shun a Lorius to cover him in times of crisis. Just like Akito expected, they didn't disappoint at all.
"She was proud of him"
