Filina gritted her teeth and stared at the instructor. She could feel Henry’s heavy gaze staring silently at her.

Filina stared at his expressionless face and quickly turned her head away.

She wasn’t sure how such behavior would be received by the supervisor, but she no longer had the confidence to face him.

Somehow, the sharp eyes of the instructor seemed to immediately notice the fact that she had used the potion.

Filina bit her lower lip gently.

‘Perhaps I should have taken this exam with my own strength and dignity.’

Too late regret washed over her.

Filina dropped her gaze with a low breath.

I stepped out to follow the instructor who was approaching her.

At that time, the supervisor’s elaborate voice resonated once more.

“The students who had protested against exam 131 also headed to the lab with me.”

Filina’s feet, which had been moving with the instructor, stopped in place. When she raised her head to look at the instructor, she saw an overly generous face.

The students who had protested were busy buzzing with panicked expressions. Then one of the candidates boldly raised his voice.

“Why do you want us to go to the lab?”

Hearing his words, the instructor opened his mouth in a dry voice.

“Doping tests can be conducted unannounced at any time. Especially when the test is conducted due to the protest of an unspecified person, such as examinee number 131. The person who protested against the examinee is also tested together according to the school rules.”

The school rules of the Swordsmanship Academy were quite difficult. Since so many people took the entrance exam, each candidate fought in a different way.

Rather, if they were someone like Filina, who used potions to take the exam without harming others, even that was a slight degree.

Some made their opponents fall in irrational ways to help themselves pass. This trend was dressed up as the loss of good people and the welcoming of irrelevant people at the Academy.

As per the original principle, the doping test was conducted on all students after all the exams were over.

However, it was foolish to say “principle” even as more and more people continued to use their brains to gain admission to the Military Academy.

So the military academy recommended a flexible test progression that would allow doping tests to be conducted unannounced at any time.

The principle was adhered to, but drug testing could be done at any time as directed by the instructor.

“This is not acceptable. Why should I have to do a doping test because of that woman?”

The people who had been frowning beside the examinee’s words began to shout accordingly.

“Yes! This is so frustrating! I refuse to take the doping test!”

“I won’t take it either! She’s the only one who needs to take it!”

In an instant, the atmosphere of the performance hall was messily disturbed.

Filina looked at them with a firm expression. Then she turned away with startled eyes at the sound of minute laughter coming from somewhere.
