Ethan had expected some sort of elaborate speech that talked about the laurels of the academy or at least something that was inspirational to the students, but the man lazily waved his hand away after the few words. "The teleportation circles for the tests are already set up. Go and stand over a circle, and you will be taken to the respective test." With that, the man disappeared from the platform.
The other instructors also did not bother to add any more information and the students also did not look like they were expecting it. Maybe this was the norm here. Ethan shrugged and walked over to one of the teleportation circles. All around him, the others were doing the same.
Ethan stepped onto a purple colored circle just as a faint hum started beneath his feet. He glanced once at Shadow, who gave him a lazy blink before curling up by the edge, clearly not planning to follow.
