Faustina held on to Chastity's words before she was teleported back to the academy. Amongst the nine passers of the race, half were drowned with hate. They were talking about Chastity being only a viscount's daughter and being full of herself. Words like poison came out of their mouths with a bitter pang.

Shortly after several instructions the same as earlier, magical circles appeared individually beneath them.
"We are transporting all of you to different starting points." Said moderator Yusha. "And from that point on, you can decide whether you want to team with the first batch, form a team of your own, OR go solo."
Moderator Yusha and the other teachers began to fade away as the magic circle started to illuminate so brightly from below.
"May the firefly guide you to your chosen paths, our future students!"
