It was worth it.
Regardless of whether they won or lost the upcoming group battle, regardless of who ended up with the recommendations, Headmaster Greene felt it was all worth it. It wasn't scary to be weak. But if the hearts of everyone no longer felt honor or glory for the academy, then that would be the most frightening them and something he wouldn't be able to face!

Wang Zhong and the others in the squadron felt somewhat emotional. The voices of those singing the song had more of an impact to one's heart than the mindless cheers and shouts of the audience. They were attracted to the song and ended up joining them, their soft voices adding to the chorus.
