Hearing the Instructor's words, their frowns deepened even further, brows knitting together as disbelief and irritation flickered across their faces. The Instructor had said that he would step in when they lost against the Tenth Sun, didn't that mean that Instructor Jude believed that over a hundred students would lose to a single student, that all of them together, despite their training and effort, still stood no chance whatsoever against one individual.
How could they be looked down upon like this? They might be weaker, they knew that much with painful clarity, but they still had their pride, their dignity, and the stubborn fire that refused to let them accept humiliation so easily. They had the advantage in numbers, a clear numerical superiority that should have meant something, so how could the Instructor make such a statement with such certainty and confidence.
