If one asks the students of the Emerald Academy, no matter what grade kids they are, nine out of ten people will say the strongest student is Raydon Geller.
However, if one asks whether they think Raydon is awesome, eight out of ten say no. He wasn't exactly a popular person within the academy. He is just a d*ck who has a high disregard for the rules and people.
He is a loner who never plays with a team. In fact, he wouldn't hesitate to punch down a team member if he feels like the latter is dragging him down. He would repeatedly scold and speak harshly to five, six, and seven-year-olds (from pre-elementary) because he was annoyed by their crying.
Azzy only got his background details and didn't get to know too many details about him before because of the fact that WAMO didn't consider him worthy to be recruited.
And now, that kind of person is transferring to 10-B when barely two months left before graduation.
