The practical exams for second-year students and above were regarded as one of the most dangerous events held at the academy.

Designed to evaluate a student's overall capabilities in real-world conditions, the system didn't shy away from simulating unpredictable dangers—sometimes pushing students to the very brink.

The risks were so severe that death was considered a real possibility, leading many to believe that the academy's trials were even more perilous than those faced by mercenaries or adventurers in the field.

Thanks to her reforms and stringent safety measures, what was once an infamous bloodbath had become a more controlled—though still brutal—assessment of strength and survival skills.
