The lecture hall was a 'gigantic' version of the normal school lecture halls. That's why it had its own 'building' directly on the campus, which was the only place where reporters could be present without permission, except directly from the students and their parents.
It was also the only part of the academy that opened to the outside, apart from the entrance gates. This way, no reporter could enter the academy and disturb anyone.
Therefore, as soon as we entered the building, we clearly understood what was going on inside.
While the academy side of the building was peaceful and quiet, the moment I entered, I realized how big an event I was actually in. What I had done in the preliminary had brought me to the forefront more than I thought.
We were surrounded by reporters who were taking us on live TV and pointing their cameras at us. I could hear a few of them chanting my name, 'Aiden'.
