Teacher Milena's explanation caused the class to be drowned in silence as she talked about two of the four goddesses of this generation who were known for their exceptional talent and ravishing beauty.

Both Hazel Cloven and Lily Havenglow were famous figures in the human country, holding a great positions because of their family background, beauty, and talent.

"Why are we forgetting our pseudo-Havenglow, can't he become the finalist for the international tournament?" One of the guys brought Rio's name as he wanted to cause a commotion.

"I will be surprised if he even gets into the top ten in the national military academy tournament"

"He will be crushed by the senior years, there is no hope for this adopted havenglow's brat."

"Didn't you hear he is in the party of only two?"

"Nobody would've agreed to be on his team."

"Haha..."

The class was filled with laughter and jeers as the students made fun of Rio. The energy in the room was high as the students urged each other on, eager to tease adopted havenglow's son more.

Rio, who was sitting at his desk, looked unperturbed as he knew his ranking in the national military school tournament would speak for itself so he didn't think of wasting his energy and time on them right now. He was used to being the target of teasing and mocking, since childhood so this was nothing for him.

The boy was well aware of his position in the next tournament considering he defeated a group of the black-stage warriors hired by Ruben all alone, he had yet to absorb the giant shadow viper fox's core yet. So his final strength would be enough to get a good ranking in the national military school tournament.

Teacher Milena noticed the ill whispers in the atmosphere and decided to intervene. She walked towards the students who were making fun of Rio. She stood in front of them, crossing her arms and a stern expression on her face.

"Enough" she shouted, her voice echoing through the classroom. The students, mocking Rio, were caught off guard by her sudden appearance, which caused the whole class to immediately fell silent, surprised by the sudden change in her demeanor.

Teacher Milena said, her voice stern, "Shame on you guys. You can not speak ill of your fellow classmates.

Rio may not have the same background as some of you and is not blood-related to the havenglow family but that does not diminish his worth as a person or a warrior.

Remember, the true measure of a person's strength lies not in their bloodline or status, but in their determination and hard work.

Each of us has our own strengths and weaknesses. It is important to support and encourage each other, rather than make fun of someone's abilities.

Rio may not be the strongest or the most skilled, but that doesn't mean he isn't capable of achieving a good rank in the tournament.

The goddesses we were just talking about were known for their talent and beauty, but they also faced many challenges and overcame them with hard work and determination.

Have you already forgotten how he defeated Talia? is she not the genuine heir of the Mailon family? No, I'm not talking bad about her, I'm just saying Rio isn't less than any of the geniuses of the federation."

The whole class quieted down, taken aback by Milena's sudden burst of intensity. Her explanation caused the class to be drowned in silence. The students listened intently as she spoke, her words making a profound impact on their thoughts and attitudes.

Talia was embarrassed as the teacher mentioned her duel with Rio. The young miss of the Mailon family was cursing the teacher in her thoughts.

Milena continued, "As for the national military school tournament, we should not judge someone's abilities based on the size of their team or if they are in their first year.

We have no idea what kind of training Rio has been undergoing, or what kind of skills he has developed. The only way to find out is to wait and see."

She paused, letting her words sink in, "And even if Rio does not make it to the top ten, it does not mean he is a failure. The competition is fierce, and it is only a small part of what it takes to become a great warrior. It takes dedication, perseverance, and a courageous heart in a desperate battle to never give up."

Milena's words resonated with the students, some nodded in agreement while others were just avoiding their gaze and being embarrassed for their actions. Some agreed that they had been too quick to judge Rio and that their teacher's words were full of wisdom.

The teacher swept the whole class with her gaze and said, "You also need to not forget that Unity will help you in this national military school tournament. There is a danger of dying as other military school students with their own teams may target you in order to get a higher rank in the competition so you all need to forget about your personal childish enmity with each other and stick as one when you're representing the golden seal military school."

Hearing about the death, students were frightened and asked further questions to the teacher but then she told them they were allowed to take their name out and not participate in the competition if they want. However, she also mentioned about safety measures to tackle this problem which would be revealed when the tournament starts.

She continued her instruction about the tournament that passed in silence, as the students thought about the meaning behind Teacher Milena's words while others just let it filter through their ears.
