"Congratulations, student Gustav, for your courage, your leadership, and your willpower. You successfully lead Aliya and Pijus. Also, you did not back down when facing monsters that were out of your league." The examiner said. The head examiner gave him a gift box and a certificate. Everyone clapped for him. After saying thanks to the head examiner and the audience, Gustav left the stage and came back to his seat.

"Now, in 6th position, we have our student James Danish. His total score is 480, and he is also from Sky School. What can I say? This year, we have many excellent warriors from the Sky School." The head examiner said. James, hearing his name being called, got up from his seat and started walking toward the stage. Everyone clapped for him.

"We like to congratulate our student, James. We all see his bravery, his willpower, and his leadership. He and his teammate face monsters who are more powerful than him. James at that time showed his leadership and bravery." The head examiner praised him. He gives James a box and a certificate.

"Now we have finally reached the top 5 candidate list. So in 5th place, we have our student Elena Martin. She is from Base school and her total score is 510." The head examiner said.

Elena, at this time, was sitting with Sam and the others. Hearing she was being called, she got up from her seat and walked toward the stage. Everyone clapped for her. Sam and the others also begin to clap for her.

"I like to congratulate a student, Elena. I don\'t think I need to tell her achievement to you. Even so, I like to point out some facts that I think everyone should have. When previously she was fighting Lepris, and their team was almost defeated, she still didn\'t show any weakness. Also, when everyone in her team began to panic, it was her brilliant speech that made everyone come down," the head examiner said. He gave her a certificate and 2 wooden boxes. Normally for the top 5 candidates, the reward is better. Everyone clapped for her. After saying thank you to the head examiner and the audience, she left the stage and came back to her seat.

"In fourth place, we have a student, Tony Taylor. His total score is 520, and he is from Royal School." The head examiners said the fourth-place holder\'s name.

Tony, after hearing that he is being called, quickly gets up from the seat and starts walking toward the stage. Everyone clapped for him.

"I don\'t think I need to tell you about our student, Tony. When facing a monster that is out of your league, he did not back down. He also stays calm in serious situations when we can\'t make reckless decisions. He is also an excellent leader and an excellent fighter. So I would like to congratulate student Tony." The head examiner praised him. He gave him boxes and a certificate. Everyone clapped for him. Tony said thanks to everyone and left the stage.

"Feww!!... so we finally reached the top 3 candidate list. I know everyone is waiting for this."

" Without further delay, let\'s start. In the third position, we have our student Jeni Chaffy. Her total score is 535, and she is from Royal School." The head examiner said, and he clapped with the other audience.

Jeni got up from his seat. She approached the stage.

"She also didn\'t need any introduction about her achievement. I can say that she is a great teammate you can have on your team. Even when she was facing an enemy, she still thought about her teammates\' condition. From here, we can see that she always cares about her teammates. Not only does she have great willpower, but she also is a lightning spell master." The head examiner praised her. The head examiner gave her three boxes and a certificate. Everyone in the room clapped for her. After saying her thanks to everyone, she left the stage and came back to her seat.

"In our second position, we have our student, Alexa Glam. Her total score is 540 and she is from Royal School." The head examiner reveals the name of the second position holder. Alexa got up from her seat and began to approach the stage.

"Alexa is known as the genius of the Royal School and she has already proven it. She is a prominent leader, a great teammate, and a sword master. She knows very well that she is a warrior who can\'t back down in a fight even when she is facing a monster that is out of her league." The examiner told everyone about her. He gave her three boxes and a certificate. Everyone started clapping for her. After saying thanks to everyone, she also left the stage and came back to her seat.

"Now our main star who got the first position is Sam Kainer. His total score is 560, and he is from the Base school." The head examiner finally reviews the name of the first position holder.

Sam, who got up from his seat, couldn\'t believe that he got 1st position. He never thought about revealing his full power in the exam, but because of those warriors from the Dark association, he had to reveal his full power, and now he got 1st position. Sam doesn\'t know what he should do. Should he become happy because he got the 1st position or should he become sad because his plan to stay low-key wasn\'t possible now?

\'Because of those dark association warriors, I am now in this situation. I will never forgive them. Just you wait, you dark association. I will pay you for what you did to me,\' Sam at this time blamed the dark association while he was walking towards the stage.

"I think everyone knows about his achievements. At first, you went to the dark forest alone. But, because of the unexpected situation, he and Jeni become teammates. From there, we got to know about his great leadership. Even in a dangerous situation, he tries to stay calm. He always makes the right decision in the serious movement."

" Even when he is facing the monster who is out of his league, he never backs down and tries to stay calm and think carefully. And he is a very good Archer, a good swordmaster, and a spiritual warrior. With his hard work, he became good at these three. I don\'t think anyone could compete with him in concealment. So everyone, please clap for our Sam Kainer," the head examiner finished praising him. "We are proud of you, boy," after saying that he gave him a storage ring and a certificate. At this time, everyone present in the auditorium room was now standing and clapping for him. They were showing their respect to the first position holder. Many people here still can\'t believe that Sam got the first position, but they are still standing and clapping for Sam. Others respect every student who can get a fast position in a college exam.

Sam sees everyone were standing and clapping for him. He feels proud at this moment. He is feeling he achieved a great thing. What can he say? Could he still stay unhappy that his plan to stay low key wasn\'t successful? No, at this moment, he feels happy. He can think about those complicated matters later but now he should enjoy this atmosphere.

"Boy says something," the head examiner gave him the mic and said to him.

"Hello, everyone. I am Sam kainer. I don\'t think I can achieve this fast position if I don\'t have my teammates. As you know, when I entered the forest I was alone at that moment. If you are asking why? Because I don\'t have any friends at my school and nobody wants to be my teammates. But here I meet my first friends, or you can say, my first teammates Jeni, Tony, Kenny, Tina, and Elena. Without them, I don\'t think I could achieve 1st position. At first, I didn\'t think I could be friends with them, but what can you say? We are now good friends. They are the best teammates you can have. Thank you guys," With that, Sam finished talking. Everyone in the room once again started clapping. Sam left the stage and went toward his friends.

He is happy he meets them. He really wants to make friends with others, it is just the others didn\'t want to make friends with him.
