Chapter 369: Still king.

Throughout the history of the Calton magic academy, a commoner hasn't taken the overall top student in any year. Blake was the first to do it, and surely the nobles didn't like it.

They saw it as an attack on their power and ego, which is why they had equipped their descendants with a lot of resources and had also used underhand methods to try and eliminate him.

Compared to last semester, there was a little bit more hope that Luciano would overtake Blake, and they were ready to bank on it.

"Entering in 5th and 4th place is Haldor with a total of 157k points, and Camilla with a total of 175k points." Professor Gibson paused as the students gave out a round of applause.

By now it was more than clear that one's rank didn't determine their final position at the end of the semester. The ranks were a measure of one's battle prowess, while the class activities measured other things like leadership skills. 

'Not bad.' Blake thought as he clapped.
