Chapter 85: Tempest (3) (Teaser)
Epherene glanced at Sylvia, who was trembling so intensely that it almost felt like the ground was shaking. Gradually, the tremors subsided.
Did she confess and get rejected? Epherene wondered in her thoughts.
It seemed like a logical conclusion. After a brief nod, she turned her focus back to Deculein.
“The Solda Promotion Exam consists of three stages,” Deculein explained. “Clearing the first stage secures your promotion to Solda. The second and third stages are supplementary tests that will influence future rank promotion.”
A Solda who passes all three stages gains additional benefits for their next promotion, as not all Solda are equal.
"Furthermore, the exam will be conducted on Training Island," Deculein continued, snapping his fingers as a floating image of the island’s landscape appeared. Epherene immediately recognized it as the famous Training Island. "During a specified period, a collective training session will take place."

Deculein snapped his fingers again, and a dormitory appeared before them.
"You will be evaluated on your qualifications as a Solda both within and outside this facility."
Epherene scanned the room, observing the many candidates who had gathered from all corners of the nation.
"And today begins the preliminary test, referred to as level 0."
As Deculein finished speaking, Assistant Professor Allen stepped forward to distribute the exam papers. Epherene looked down at hers and noticed six unfamiliar magic circles sketched on it.

Before Deculein finished speaking, Sylvia stood, walked to the podium, and handed him her paper, the answers already filled in.
"Professor—"
"Debutant Sylvia. You have passed."
"... But—"
"Take your exam admission ticket and depart," Deculein commanded, offering the ticket to her.
Sylvia looked up at him, her lips tightly pressed together. She trembled slightly before quickly snatching the ticket from his hand.
As Sylvia walked out of the auditorium, Epherene felt sure of it.
She really did get rejected!

Epherene and Sylvia left the building together, their exam tickets in hand.
"Congratulations. First place again,"...
