In the grand registration hall. There was a total of four thousand and two hundred students.
This meant the lowest ranked is the four thousandth number.
And the highest ranked is the number zero.
Each number will be determined after every single student has gone through the registration phase.
The guardians remained by the student sides as they waited patiently in the hall.
This time, the hall was deathly silent.
The grand hall stretched out before them, It's high ceilings lost in shadows.
The air was thick with an eerie silence, the only sound the soft rustle of fabric as masked beings moved with an unsettling stealth.
Every corner of the hall was guarded, each stationed at a strategic point, their eyes hidden behind black masks.
They were dressed in long black trench coats, the fabric billowing behind them like dark wings.
The coats were buttoned up to the neck, the collars turned up, giving them an air of mystery and intimidation.
