Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 93 Exams



Vale also knows that this old man is causing trouble for him.

Nevertheless, he immediately understood why. The old professor is from Ravinie Family, someone who was close to the Moontomb Family.

If he heard about his match against Wilfred, then this person might be targeting him on purpose.

'Seriously… This is getting more ridiculous…' Vale wryly smiled as he stood up and wrote the answer on the board.

While he was writing, most of his classmates weren't even looking at his answers.

Instead, they were looking at their Professor to see his reaction. They would easily know whether Vale made a mistake or not depending on his reaction.

Chad, Lisa, and Aubrey wanted to help Vale but they were also unsure about the subject. They can only glare at Neil and the others who were giggling at the back of the classroom.

"Eh?" Chad suddenly realize that something was off.

Their old professor was looking at Vale as if he was seeing a ghost. At this point, everyone in the class had also noticed that their professor isn't acting as they have expected.

"Y-you already studied this before?" Professor Ravinie asked after Vale finished answering the question on the board.

It may not be a difficult arithmetic problem, but for first-year students like them, they should need a few weeks of study to solve it.

From his words, everyone already realized that Vale provided the correct answer.

They looked at the blackboard once more but they still can't understand the formula he used to solve the problem.

They can't even properly interpret the numbers on the board.

"Is he actually a genius?"

"You're overthinking it. He just studied in advance."

"Are you telling me that he's not listening because he already knows this subject?"

"Hmph… He definitely hired a tutor. Anyone can answer that if they studied early."

Vale didn't feel happy after giving the right answer. After all, the words of his classmates were making him uncomfortable.

He wanted to berate them for talking like that about him but his friend already chimed in.

"Stop being jealous... Ahem... Vale, is that really the correct answer? Why is our professor so stunned?" Chad asked the latter part in a soft voice.

Before Vale could answer, someone behind him already spoke.

"Do you even need to ask? He didn't expect that the student who wasn't listening to his class was able to answer a problem he hadn't taught yet… Of course, he was stunned." Aubrey answered matter-of-factly.

Indeed, the old professor was surprised by Vale's intelligence.

Nevertheless, he wasn't too disappointed that Vale was able to answer. After all, Vale only needed to study for about a few weeks or a month to solve the arithmetic problem he provided.

After reassessing Vale's intelligence, the Old Professor spoke.

"It's a good thing that you've studied ahead of time. However, you still need to focus on our class since it will be a bad habit if you ignore the professor speaking in front."

"I understand, Professor..." Vale answered with a tired voice as he just wanted it to be over.

Unfortunately, the Professor isn't done yet.

"However, if you really feel bored in our class, just get a perfect score in our monthly assessment and I'll recommend you to take the Class Advancement Exam. If you pass that exam, then you don't have to attend this class anymore." Professor Russel Ravinie added.

Vale, Lisa, and a few unaware students were shocked after hearing this.

"We can do that?" Vale softly muttered in disbelief. He didn't expect that the Academy would have such consideration.

"Yes… However, you have to pass the first monthly assessment with a perfect score. In addition to that, if you fail the Advancement Exam, you have to be my assistant for the rest of the academic year."

Vale's eyes lit up after hearing this.

It was the same for the others. Most of them didn't mind being an assistant if they failed.

Unfortunately, the requirement is quite tricky to achieve.  None of them here have the confidence to say that they'll perfect the first assessment.

Nevertheless, there are still some of them who weren't excited about it.

Failing the exam is actually a huge problem for them. Being an assistant to the professor may sound really cool but there is no contribution point that can be earned from doing that. You'll just become the Professor's errand boy and will only receive a thank you at the end.

"That's very interesting, Professor. I will do my best to perfect the assessment. However, is there also a way to advance our Academic Year?" Vale suddenly asked a very unusual question and shocked his classmates once more.

Not even a week had passed since the start of the class but Vale is already thinking of jumping into another Academic Year!

"Vale, aren't you a bit excited? I know you have 25 Spirit Strands but I assure you that you still need to learn plenty of things." Neil suddenly said as he could no longer keep it in.

The others had the same thought as they nodded their heads in agreement.

Even Chad was looking at Vale curiously.

'I wonder what he's planning…' Chad muttered inwardly as he felt that Vale isn't just talking nonsense. There must be a reason why he was asking that.

Professor Russel Ravinie also took a moment before he was able to answer.

"Are you referring to the Acceleration Exam? That can be done after the fourth year when you've chosen your branch. If you've shown excellence in your fourth year and even entered the Elite Rankings. Even the Headmaster might help you Accelerate."

"Acceleration Exam…" Vale softly repeated as he gently nodded. "Thank you, Professor. I was simply curious since you mention that I can skip a subject. So I just thought that I might be able to skip a whole academic class as well."

Vale explained with a smile.

Professor Ravinie shook his head as he replied.

"I understand, I suggest not thinking too much about it. I'm telling this to all of you. You'll just be disappointed if you try to aim for the Acceleration Exam. Just study at your own pace and learn how your other seniors did it. Don't rush with your studies."

"Yes, Professor!"

All the students answered as the class finally continued normally.

Unlike Oardic and Soineti Class which has two hours, this Intermediate Arithmetic only has an hour so it was over quite quickly.

After 30 minutes break, it was the Fundamentals of the Magic Zone.

Vale thought that this class would be more theoretical but to his surprise, the Professor that has arrived brought 3 assistants with her as they went to the gymnasium.
