Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 21: Ranking Assessment

As both Kyle and Nine entered the classroom and sat in the front row, not many noticed them.

Kyle looked at the classroom curiously because today was officially his first day. While looking around he also noticed Alec, Carcel, Lara, and Mia, sitting at the other end of the classroom.

The four of them sitting together was a sight to behold because all of them were beautiful and powerful.

A lot of students were trying to strike up a conversation with them but they ignored all of them and were busy talking among themselves.

Kyle looked at them for a while before talking to Nine again about the recent classes he missed.

As he was busy talking, someone entered the classroom. Wearing a beautiful outfit Professor Aliza came into the room, gathering the attention of everyone.

"Alright, everyone please keep quiet."

She walked and stood behind the podium, with tidy black hair and a sharp look Professor Aliza had a smile on her face as she slowly picked up the Attendance sheet.

Looking at the calm, gentle, and beautiful Professor Kyle thought that she was the nicest person on earth. But unlike every other male student who was blushing while staring at Aliza, he didn't look at her for longer than a few seconds.

It's not that he found her ugly it's just he thought it would be inappropriate to stare at the professor for too long.

Looking through the attendance sheet Aliza quickly started calling out names,

"Lily"

"Present"

"Alec"

"Present"

"Mia"

"Present"

.....

Suddenly pausing at a certain name Aliza said in a loud voice,

"Kyle Ohan?"

Hearing his name being called Kyle raised his hand and said,

"Present"

Aliza looked at Kyle with cold eyes, her previous smile was nowhere to be seen.

"Oh? So you finally decided to show your face."

She said sarcastically while looking at Kyle with a deadly stare.

Kyle felt a chill run down his spine, he swore she looked like an Angel just a second ago but now he felt he was seeing a demon disguised as an Angle.

".. I apologize, because it was my first time traveling so far I got motion sickness after coming to the Academy, that's why I was unable to attend the class."

Kyle lied with a serious face. But cold sweat could be seen dripping down from the side of his face.

Aliza frowned, she knew he was lying because yesterday she checked his location. Only to find, he camped inside the library for a week to read some useless books on monsters. Afterward, he took a useless mission like 'herb collecting' and left the Academy.

After glaring at Kyle for a while, she continued with the attendance. But inwardly she marked Kyle for a punishment he will soon experience.

Kyle's eyelid twitched indicating a bad premonition. But he was thick-skinned as he ignored the stares coming from the whole class.

Aliza closed the Attendance sheet before looking at the students.

"That's it, Now everyone can leave and go to the Training ground because the Ranking assessment will be held there."

All the students stood up and left the classroom.

Meanwhile, Aliza looked at Kyle back with a serious expression and mumbled under her breath,

"(+F)-Rank? Didn't the vice principal say just a week ago that he is only (-F)-Rank? How did he increase his rank when all he did was to read some books?"

After thinking for a while she thought maybe the vice principal made a mistake. But how can the vice principal who is an (SS)-Rank individual make a mistake? Thinking about all this she decided to keep an eye on Kyle during the competition.

....

In the training ground of the Academy, standing in a single line all the first-year students nervously stared at the professor before them.

Professor Liam wearing a navy blue outfit, stood tall in front of the students. The few wrinkles present on his forehead indicated that he was in his late thirties.

As the professor spoke in a loud voice, all the students felt the thick wave of mana present in the air. Though it wasn't overbearing, it still caused every student present to feel some pressure.

"Alright, everyone please pay close attention to what I'm saying because I will not repeat myself. For the Ranking assessment, all of you will be teleported inside a dungeon. The dungeon is called 'Goblin Cave'. It's an (F)-Rank dungeon, created by the Principal to nurture young talents like you all."

Pausing for a while and staring at the students standing before him, the professor continued,

"For your Ranking assessment, all you have to do is kill as many monsters as possible within the given time limit. For every monster you kill, you will be given an additional point on it. The higher the points you gain the higher your rank will be. There are some hidden tasks inside the dungeon which can give you additional points but it depends on your luck to find them. After the given time is finished you all will be automatically teleported out."

Pausing once again to make sure the students digested all the information, the professor continued,

"There will be some professors hidden inside the dungeon. This is because if there's any unforeseen accident inside the dungeon, they can quickly come to your aid. This is a safety precaution that the Academy has done to make sure none of you die."

"However..."

"If the professors are forced to help you, you will be disqualified, giving you directly the Last rank in the class. And I believe no one would like that, that's why I hope everyone will put effort into getting a high ranking."

The students shivered at the thought of getting the last rank in the class. Because no one wanted to be the last.
