When they arrived in the hall, all of the regulars who passed the test yesterday were present. Liu Guanyi recognized some of them, the tall guy, Roy, and his petite girlfriend, Lily, and the green spearman he met in the beginning.
They joined them as they were all silent waiting for the test administrator to explain about this "Position Test". Not long after, the door opened as Novec entered the hall carrying a paper in his hands, and as usual, he directly explained without any pleasantries.
"I'll explain it shortly so perk up your ears and listen closely!"
"Positions are important in climbing the tower! They will have and serve their own specific purposes in a team to complement each other. There are many of them but the most important are, Fisherman, Spear-bearer, Scout, Light-bearer, and Wave Controller."
"You will learn more these more in your respective position's class so I won't explain them." Novec gave his reason, but of course, he simply didn't want to waste more breath to explain something that would just be taught later in the class. He wanted them to go out on their own to seek and learn, not babysit them.
"Now, based on your previous tests. I will appoint your respective position that will determine the entirety of the position test!" He began to call out their names and designated their positions.
"Roy Evans, Spear-bearer!"
"Lily Walt, Light-bearer!"
It lasted for a while until it came to their turn.
"Tu Perie Xin, Scout!"
And finally...
"Liu Guanyi, Fisherman!" He spoke out the last name on the paper.
"Now, as my farewell and last test. You lot could find your own way to your respective classroom, however, keep in mind that it will start in a few hours, so make it quick! Treat it as an observation test, goodbye kids!" Novec said with a smirk as he waved his hand and casually strolled away like he had no care in the world.
"Damn, that Ranker sure does whatever he wants!" A regular cursed.
"Well, he can exactly do that because he is a Ranker in the first place." Roy, the tall man replied.
"Hey, guys! Let's split up here so we can cover more ground and find each position's classroom if one of us finds it then we can tell each other via pockets." One of them suggested.
As the regulars discussed things among themselves, Liu Guanyi didn't want to mingle and socialize with them since they were worthless to befriend and simply a waste of time, and just spoke to Xin.
"We also should split up, Xin. Oh yea, the test administrator was right. You should treat it as a training, furthermore, you are a scout, right? I am sure you can do it!" He encouraged him.
"W-well, if you say so." He nervously replied, still lacking confidence in himself.
"Anyway, let's meet later!" Liu Guanyi said his farewell and went out of the hall casually.
To find the classrooms, especially the fisherman's one in this huge place was indeed a bit problematic. Without any knowledge other than yesterday's experience and only a few hours of time, it was almost impossible to find it unless one could view it from a bird's eye perspective.
That regular who suggested splitting up and contacting each other through pockets was correct since it would give them much higher chances and was pretty feasible. However, it was too narrow-minded and inefficient, Liu Guanyi considered.
There was the quickest and simplest way to actually get it right. Just ask the personnel of this floor to tell him the way, simple right?
Although it seemed there was no staff other than the test administrator, they were actually here though only of a few of them. For example, the octopus cook in the cafeteria.
