So here lay the conundrum. If Dante wanted to increase his stats, he had to leave. If he left, the school would have an excuse to ban him from entering the Zero Gate legally, and you know for sure that those factions out there would pay any price for that.
They had difficulty sleeping or eating because they were racking their brains to think of how to deal with Dante. Even fifth years were warned about him, told to be very careful when encountering or dealing with him in the real Zero Gate.
In fact, none of them expected him to fail these mock exams, just like they didn't expect him to fail in the real Zero gate. Their minds hadn't even gone there, so if Dante did that, there would be a great upset.
