The student body in the amphitheater had at least 40 students representing each kingdom. It's possible they didn't have all of their Vale students in the amphitheater because there wouldn't be room for the exchange students. The average number of students in any high school throughout the United States is 540. That's an average of 140 students per class year. Beacon already has a representative class of 120 (including the x's), 20 students shy of the average is not puny.
