"Wait, what?" I protested. "The Gao Kao wasn't enough? I still need to take a practical examination?"
"Sorry about that." Henry Porter scratched his head sheepishly, his wrinkled visage displayed in a holographic screen. "But it's a departmental exam. You're already a student of the university, but in order to major in the specific magic department, you'll have to pass their practical exam first."
"And you couldn't have told me that…earlier?"
"I didn't?" Henry Porter looked confused. "Didn't I tell you to prepare and get ready?"
He only told me to handle the administrative process and apply for the summoning department. He didn't actually inform me of the practical examination that they required. Fortunately, when going through the application process, I caught sight of the fine print that stipulated that I needed to take a practical examination.
