Chapter 534 - One-year Probation.

VIP box...

Kirill was shaking his head with a smile, 

"That sharp-tongued brat actually survived"

Devon turned to him immediately, 

"What the hell is going on?" He asked the Ex-Doxon Duke who rolled his eyes but did not deign the question fit for a response.

However, when Isabella repeated the question with a bit less colorful language, Kirill answered as casually as he possibly could, 

"An assassination or more accurately, an unsuccessful assassination" he said.

"And why would you want to assassinate my granddaughter?" Isabella asked to which Kirill answered with a bit of a sneer, 

"No one cares about your granddaughter. The attempt was on Hal's life, not hers and she was only in danger because she decided to get involved."

"And why would you want to kill your grandson?" Tanya asked.

"Especially after you just claimed him in a very public manner" Isabella added to which Devon frowned in a 'who cares if he wants to kill that bastard?' Sort of way.

Kirill shrugged, 

"I don't want to kill him. I won't attempt to save him but I have no reason to seek his life. That said, the assassination attempt concerns our family politics, or more crudely put, it concerns our issues.

So I implore you to leave us be and let us sort out our issues, ourselves"

The Empress decided it was the right time to chime in but not in an attempt to calm the tension but to simply remind all those present as to the reason they were here in the first place.

Nothing, at this moment, could be more important than the Royal academy's entrance exams, 

"Elsa, recover the bodies of the dead trio. Since they disabled their devices, they had no use for our protection and we do not need to punish their killings.

That said, I would still like their deaths to be looked into.

Once you have ordered the recovery and the subsequent autopsy, I would like that we proceed with the second stage of the Entrance exam"

Elsa bowed,

"As you wish your majesty" she said before straightening up to follow through with the Empress' orders.

...

Meanwhile, in the center stage,

Hal looked over at the faces of those who had passed the first stage and he quickly crossed eyes with Valerie who was frowning at him having heard, just like every single person in the coliseum, what Marla had said.

Hal was actually glad she had passed the exam and wondered if the one leading her group was one of the leaders of the young generation Han Doe had been so confident would take up all ten spots but when he saw every other member of the group staring at Valerie with awe and a bit of fear, he tossed that thought aside.

And he was right to do so as Han Doe looked around before saying in disappointment, 

"We're missing two" 

A sentiment the other seven who Hal took as the rest of the ten so-called leaders of the generation agreed with, even though they agreed with a frown.

Frowns directed at the two groups they believed had no right to be standing on the center stage.

Then Elsa's voice sounded out for all to hear,

"This eighty-four have passed the first stage of the Royal entrance exams and have all become members of the Royal Academy.

Even without the second stage of the exams.

However, the royal academy has no need for wastes. 

Because of the situation of the first stage which saw keeping the devices of every member of each group from going red being the priority, not every member of those groups actually had a hand in their group's success.

If this is the case, your points for the first stage of the Royal Academy entrance exams is Zero."

Elsa paused and let this sink in much to the murmurs of many of the Eighty-four on the center stage.

She let that continue and only when the murmurs had fizzled out did she continue, 

"We understand that some of you believed fighting 'weaklings' was below you and while you had the strength to come out victorious, you preferred to leave the battle to those on the same level as those 'weaklings'.

Well, even for you, the verdict remains the same and you get a Zero.

If you're only going to participate in a group effort when it 'suits you' then you don't deserve to be a part of the Royal Academy.

But rejoice for you are not totally doomed just yet...

Every one of you is on a one-year probation period starting from now, at the end of which your tally of points would be reviewed and if it is lower than a certain number, you will be ejected from the academy.

There are many ways of gaining points, all of which you will have a chance to learn and attempt once you are in the academy fully but one of the most popular ways is by challenging your fellow Royal academy members to duels.

The winner wins points off the loser.

Which means the loser loses some of his points to the winner.

That is what the second and final stage of the exam is for.

To give those of you who 'could not be bothered to fight weaklings' a chance to get points off those who could be bothered.

For the duration of the Exam, the amounts of points to be won and to be lost is fixed.

We will give you a chance to prepare yourself and will convene in an hour for the start of the Second and final stage of the Royal Academy entrance Exams"

It was almost evening but none of those in the coliseum were weary.

This was the part of the exam that was most exciting to watch.

Seeing the best of the young generation battle it out was incredibly intriguing and none of them could wait.

Hal, Melinda, and Nicole went through the doors that led out of the center stage and into the many rooms below the coliseum seats to take off their bloodied clothes and clean themselves up.

When they actually found a room to make use of, it was merely a cover so that they could enter into the Harem space and prepare themselves in there.

With all three taking off their clothes and sinking into the pool within the mansion in a bid for relaxation.

They had not been there more than a few minutes that Melinda already had her arms wound around Hal's neck while she kissed down his beautiful form, even going underwater to continue only to resurface seconds later and retake his lips.

Hal enjoyed the press of her ample breasts on him while he grabbed her ass underwater and kneaded it to his heart's content while Nicole swam closer to join in whatever way or form she could.

While Hal kneaded Melinda's ass cheeks, Nicole found space between their bodies to grab hold of Hal's massive cock and stroke it while her excitement heightened.

It had been months since she last touched any part of him or since he had ever touched any part of her and there was nothing she wished for more than to fully indulge in his touch.

She had nothing against the Dane present and just wanted Hal to bring her that pleasure she had been longing for ever since their wonderful time together in Doxon.
