"… Valiant Hall uses 20% of resources allocated for students without ever participating in resource competitions…"

"… Valiant Hall has exactly 793 cases of corruption in just this past half year alone since we began to track…"

Things were only made worse by the fact these individuals of Valiant Hall weren't presence to defend themselves.

Things only continued to become more and more oppressive the more time Raylion spent speaking. It seemed that he had done thing on purpose, placing the most benign crimes ahead of the quickly worsening ones.

Explanations of exploitation, theft, and even sexual assault and violence were described in vivid detail, leaving many sitting in a state of half being at a loss and another half truly uncomfortable.

"… Case 31: Student Kirs, guilty of …"

"… Case 47: Teacher…"
