Thursday.
Today is the highly anticipated No.11 High School's Four Sects Grand Tournament.
Wait, why say "highly anticipated"...
Oh right, there are indeed ten thousand junior year students from the seven schools combined.
So, the term wasn't misused.
Actually, though it's called the midterm exam, it is a bit late, because there's only one and a half months left until the final exam.
But this is a common date for the joint examination among prestigious schools in Haidong, so it's treated as the midterm exam.
The reason it's set around this time is that by now, the Provincial Experimental High School has mostly finished teaching all the course content.
In other words, this exam is a comprehensive one that fully simulates the college entrance exam.
The results of this exam are extremely valuable.
