In the Gambler's Academy, just like in the other academies, all the freshmen and most of the seniors along with the instructors and elders are gathered at the bottom of the tower.
Today is an exciting day. It's the beginning of the intense competition that is going to burn for years to come and everyone is all up for it. The freshmen are all dying to enter the tower. But only twenty-five people can enter at the same time.
Courtesy of the freshmen's big day, the seniors held back.
So, the freshmen have twenty-five slots all for themselves. They are still not enough. By the time everyone is done, it would be way past midnight and it might even go past tomorrow morning. The freshmen might not like that prospect, but the instructors would welcome it.
If it stayed that long, it only means the potential of the students is that great, and they would be more than happy to have that.
The freshmen slowly started entering the tower.
