Maria Carter said, as Liliana Manor and a few other students also nodded along,
"Yes indeed, we all revised using the notes from our tutoring teacher and managed to pass this monthly exam."
As soon as Maria Carter's words came out, the crease in the brow of the head of student guidance tightened further,
"Maria Carter, not only do you not admit to cheating, but you also lie.
And such an absurd lie at that. The teachers at City First Middle School are among the best in the nation. Are you saying they're inferior to some external tutoring teacher?"
Amelia Willow did indeed know which teacher Maria Carter was talking about, but she didn't believe it either—no matter how amazing the 'Heavenly King' teacher was, it couldn't be possible to turn a group of poor students into average ones in just a month.
"The teacher can believe your words, but you should bring that teacher here.
I really want to see which teacher from elsewhere is better than those at our City First Middle School."
