The students slowly left the class, talking with each other the entire time.

Meanwhile, Shang slowly leaned forward and whispered.

"Is this because of, you know what?" he asked.

"No," teacher Niria answered. "You are simply the best hunter."

Shang looked with uncertainty at teacher Niria. "But I had help. The Storm Eagle young did a lot of work, and I wouldn't be alive without it."

"Could it have killed the snake without you?" teacher Niria asked.

Shang thought about it for a bit.

Yes, the Storm Eagle had injured the snake severely, but that was only possible since the snake hadn't noticed the eagle. After it had noticed the eagle, it had readied its weapons.

If the Storm Eagle had attacked again without backup, it would have been killed with certainty.

"No," Shang said, "but that doesn't change the fact that I won with help."

Teacher Niria frowned. "I don't like your dishonest behavior."

Shang's eyebrows shot up in surprise and shock. "Dishonest?" he asked.

"You are trying to fish for compliments," teacher Niria answered with annoyance.

"How am I fishing for compliments?!" Shang asked in shock. "I mean what I say! I had help, which means that the glory isn't fully mine. At most, I get 50%."

Teacher Niria looked closely at Shang.

He didn't seem to be lying.

"Have you not heard the other student?" she asked.

"I did. What about her?" Shang asked back.

"She said that no team accepted her, which is normal. Only very few students get to join a team that hunts a General Stage beast, and those students have to be the best and at the Peak Soldier Stage."

"Such a team consists of at least three General Stage warriors. Tell me, how much glory would that student get?" teacher Niria asked.

Shang blinked a couple of times. "Maybe 10%?" he asked.

"Maybe," teacher Niria said emotionlessly. "You are so caught up in your own world that you can't see the people around you."
