The Archmage shot him a fierce glare, finally managing to suppress his rage.
'He knew this wasn't the time to assign blame. He had to stop that idiot Carl from embarrassing himself further, then find a way to quickly get a clear picture of the situation and figure out how to deal with that brat, Lynch Blackwood!'
He quickly stepped forward and announced in a loud voice, "Time's about up! All students, listen up! We will begin boarding immediately. The exam will be held on Silent Island. Any form of private dueling is strictly forbidden on the ship. Violators will be immediately disqualified from the exam!"
As soon as he said this, the color drained from Carl's face. "Instructor Buddy, I..."
"Shut up!" Archmage Buddy shot him a cold glance. "Get on the ship."
Carl's face turned ashen with frustration, but he didn't dare defy Instructor Buddy's command. He could only shoot Lynch a hateful glare before reluctantly turning and walking toward the gangway.
