The next day, the students were woken up by a loud announcement, calling them over to the main oval room. One of the teacher supervisors stood there with a piece of paper in his hand. The moment everyone was inside, he began reading out the contents.
“Due to certain circumstances, the next assessment evaluation has been moved back and will take place in four days time rather than today. This also means that the students ranked 1 to 10 will have to keep their position for that additional time period if they wish to advance.”
As soon as he was done, the adult turned around and left the room. Since the ones mostly affected by this sudden change were the top rankers, the other students just smiled and continued doing what they would usually do.
“Has this ever happened before? Am I the only one who feels like they’re blatantly targeting us?” Wu asked, visibly annoyed at this kind of treatment.
