Everyone turned to look.
"Of course, that’s why Theresa chose the commoner’s path," because no matter her past, she could not catch the eyes of the Great Nobles.
Celia, Lance, Mervin, even Qin Mo and Nolan looked down on her.
To people of their generation, the truly noble princesses were Flora and Evelyn.
Theresa was nothing more than an unfavored daughter of the Prince, no different from the children of the Guardian Dukes.
This must be the retribution Joseph V deserved for taking the throne unjustly!
When someone brought up the scandal of Evelyn, the exiled Nobility who had lost her princess title, everyone seemed very interested. After all, it was secret knowledge of the Royal Family, colored with legend and mystery, and they got more excited as they spoke.
The Military Academy Students sure knew more than one could find on the Star Network, and Lin Fu could overhear quite a bit.
"What are Elbert’s people talking about?" Morris asked curiously.
"It’s weird, why aren’t they worried at all? They look rather happy!"
Many people were asking the same question.
However, the joy of the people from Elbert ended immediately when they realized their seats had been taken.
Today’s seating was arranged just like the previous day’s opening ceremony, fixed and unchanged.
But now, their seats were already full.
Lei Ze clenched his teeth.
"Have you lost your minds?"
Other Military Academies also noticed the situation; those who arrived early had been looking forward to this moment, and now all eyes were on the scene.
They were just waiting for a fight to break out.
Lin Fu and her group stood in front of their seats, looking down at the people from Fenglin Military Academy, and spoke coldly, "Move aside!"
"This is not for you to sit."
Compared to Elbert’s anger, the people from Fenglin Military Academy were calm and relaxed, chatting and laughing among themselves, completely ignoring Elbert’s people, treating them as if they were air.
Under countless pairs of eyes, this was a monumental humiliation.
Everyone excitedly watched the drama unfold, wondering who would give in.
If Elbert couldn’t reclaim their seats, they would become a laughingstock, and their status would plummet.
If Fenglin Military Academy’s attempt to usurp failed, they wouldn’t end up any better.
Though it was just about seats for a competition, there was much at stake.
"Did you not hear when I told you to scram?" Archer, with his fiery temper, could no longer hold back and was about to rush forward when Ivan, calm as always, stopped him.
Roars of laughter broke out among the crowd.
The people from Fenglin Military Academy were deliberately ignoring those from Elbert, giving them a setback to dampen their spirits before mocking them, eventually giving up the seats in a charitable manner after making Elbert lose face, without any loss to themselves.
A minor provocation, a small tactic, but executed perfectly.
"Oh? Are these your seats?"
Finally, the leader of Fenglin Military Academy spoke, feigning surprise. "This is the third section? Impossible. Given your Military Academy’s ranking, shouldn’t you be placed somewhere after the fifteenth section?"
Laughter erupted again.
Other Military Academies discussed quietly among themselves; even the high-level generals in the guest seats noticed the dispute and started discussing it softly.
"Elbert is really going downhill. There wasn’t a time when other Star Systems’ Military Academies dared to provoke !"
"Look how they don’t provoke the First Military Command College or the Royal Starship Academy. They pick the easiest target."
Some perceptive spectators commented sharply, "This provocation is intentional."
Sitting there, Xia Zeming’s face darkened. These bastards, acting as if he didn’t exist!
Suddenly, Xia Zeming turned to Fu Xing sitting next to him and chuckled, "Your woman is being bullied. Aren’t you going to stand up for her?"
