"Judging by your performance in this trial, I can give you nothing less than a full score. I'll also tell you this—if you had failed this trial, you would have been rejected by Central Academy even if you had earned a full eighty points up to now. We call this the overruling trial. If you were lacking in moral character, nothing else would have mattered."

Their choice hadn't been wrong.
"With the conclusion of this trial, Ray has seventy points. Raziel, you have sixty-one points. Violetta and Lily have sixty points and fifty-eight points respectively."
