The students’ eyes filled with a deep sense of bewilderment. The silence was heavier than before.

Juyeon, sensing the growing tension in the classroom, immediately continued her explanation.

"Of course, if the instructors only evaluated their own students, there could be fairness issues and complaints. While it's not that the main instructor teaches better than the others, it is true that I am the strongest among the instructors. I can’t allow an unfair exam for Class 1."

Juyeon’s voice was calm. There was neither arrogance nor showiness.

It was nothing but a cold, hard fact. And it was something everyone already knew.
