“By now most of you should have heard the injuries Principle Lovren had sustained during his battle against an Arachne. He is currently doing okay, but it would take him at least 3 months to fully recover.” Professor Gibson’s words made the students have mixed feelings.

“Till then, decisions would be made by the 5 head of years, while major decisions will be made by highness Prince Bryon.” Professor Gibson explained.

‘We all know good things never come out from things like this.” Blake thought.

The main problem he had with systems like this was that majority would win the vote, but in reality, good people were in minority.

Blake had no idea how the other 4 heads of years were, but after putting into consideration that his set was the only one that truly treated both commoners and nobles as equals, he came to a conclusion that they were not good. So he was expecting the decisions made by the 5 man counsel to be against them.

After explaining everything they needed to know about the new administrative system of the school, Professor Gibson changed the topic to the beast tide.

.....

“I would like to commend the elite class that was posted at the city walls. This beast tide was way more difficult than the previous one, but still, you all went through it with the lowest casualties compared to previous years and the second-year class.”

“Across the walls, the total student fatality is 6, and they all came from the eastern wall. 4 out of the 6 of the fatalities were from a single second-year team, while 2 were first-year students.” Professor Gibson announced.

‘No wonder Layla and Esmeralda were traumatized, they might have watched the students being slaughtered by beasts.’ Blake felt pity for them.

‘Every exercise students keep dying, and Ii makes me wonder if this is a plot to sieve out the weak.’ Castiel said in the mind link.

‘It’s quite suspicious because in every exercise or exam something goes wrong and students end up dying.’ Brian said

A lot of students were not surprised by the news of the deaths, but at the same time, they were thankful that they weren’t among the fatalities.

“Now, for the most important information, we all have been waiting for, the results of the beast tide.” Professor Gibson said, instantly gaining the attention of everyone in the hall.

“Starting with the top 3 teams with the highest total points. 3rd position goes to Team Owen with a total of 233k points.

In Second place is Team Damon with a total of 282k points.

Finally, the team with the highest points goes to Team Blake with a total of 328k points.” Professor Gibson announced.

‘Just like I expected.’ Blake thought with a smirk on his face.

From the moment Damon’s team had been announced as the 2nd position, it was a no-brainer who was in first place.

“46k difference that’s crazy!”

Everyone was shocked by the enormous gap between both teams. They found it hard to believe because every member of Damon’s team was in the top 10, while it was only Blake and Luciano that was in the top 10.

“It is definitely because they were posted to the southern wall. Everyone knows that the population of beasts is greater there.” A student said.

Blake heard as haters were trying to downplay their efforts, but he paid them no mind because no matter what they said or how loud they screamed his points wouldn’t change.

[Classic humans. Many of them had prayed not to be posted to the southern gate, but now they are hating on those that were posted there because of the rewards.] The system shook its head in disgust.

Although they were correct about the southern wall having more beasts, everyone knew that it was the riskiest location to stay during the beast tide. It was a high-risk high-reward location, but everyone had forgotten about the first part.

“Silence!” Instructor Zirrack’s voice echoed all around the hall, instantly turning it silent.

‘Has any of you wondered why Instructor Zirrack is always accompanying anyone speaking when most times he ends up not talking?’ Brian asked in the mind link but no one had answers.

“Over to the top 3 individuals with the highest points obtained from the beast tide.” Professor Gibson announced.

This was the announcement that identified the best individual in the beast tide, but for some reason, most students weren’t that excited about it.

“Third position goes to Damon with a total of 71k points, 2nd position goes to Blake with a total of 85k points.

In first position, is Luciano with a total of 89k points.” Professor Gibson’s announcement not only surprised everyone, but it put smiles on the faces of Blake’s enemies.

This was the first time in a long while, that Blake wasn’t the first position in something, and although it was only a difference of 4k points his haters were still happy.

‘The gap was smaller than we expected.’ Blake said to the system.

[Apparently.] The system replied.

During the beast tide, the system had been keeping tabs on the major beasts Luciano had killed, and with that, it was able to make an estimate. So Blake was the least surprised about the news.

“Since we have no other reason to keep you all in school, we have decided to end the semester by announcing the overall top students.” Professor Gibson’s announcement instantly created tension in the air as it was finally time for the moment of truth.

“Does Blake get dethroned by Luciano?”

Luciano having the highest points in the beast tide gave a lot of people hope.
