Soon another month passed. During this month Max got the expected results. The commoners started taking an edge over the nobles in term of chemistry studying and study of martial arts in general. Max opened the ability of students to challenge each other during classes and the nobles that studied during the time of the commoners martial classes started challenging them to get some fun. In the beginning the commoners were getting killed, sometimes even in a gruesome way. After around two weeks of studying the situation started to change. The nobles started to lose. The commoners worked very hard. They also had the help of the system. They studied the swordsmanship skill, and it caused the nobles to quickly fall with their faces into the mud. Even the help of their tutors did not help. When the commoners saw they started to win over the nobles their hard work increased to something maniacal. A lot of them dreamed killing those noble bastards. When they did it in the simulation their blood boiled. They trained like crazy. The nobles could not win the commoners dedication and hard work. It was even more prominent in term of chemistry studies. The commoners were not close to finishing the course, but Max started to hear the commoners talk about the material learned with each other. The commoners used one of the best ways to study quickly. They studied in groups. Every one of them got some part of the information better that the other and when they talked about it every one of them got something new for themselves. It caused their rate of improvement to skyrocket. The nobles were different. They kept their success to themselves, and they stagnated a lot compared to the commoners. Max was not surprised, but the noble relatives of the nobles did not understand what was going on and they made a meeting during the weekend when the students did not study. Even the king attended. When Max got the message from the director to come and attend a meeting he sighed. He saw it coming from a mile away. Even before the courses were included, he already knew that shit was going to hit the fan really hard.
When Max came inside the meeting room there was silence for some time. Max was thinking for himself: 'Do I need to explain something? Why are your kids generally retarded? It should be pretty obvious.'
After some pause the king greeted Max and asked: "Senior teacher Max, can you please explain why the noble kids have such big problems in terms of progress compared to the commoners in all aspects in the last month?"
Max sighed and said: "Well it is pretty obvious if you ask me. That why I asked the headmaster to prioritize the commoners over the nobles. From the beginning the commoners had more chances than your heirs. In the chemistry course everyone had similar starting point. The nobles even have a big advantage because they can buy more time to study. The commoners don't have such privilege. No one of them is tired of living. Even with this huge advantage the nobles are losing and will continue to lose. The reason is simple. They have nothing to fight for. They have everything. Why would they do anything at all if it's not easy? Even if they fail nothing will change for them. Their lives will be the same. their lives will be very good. If the noble will be able to get some success it will just be a plus. They are now in the age when they start to use their maids for other things in the night. They are busy with other things. The commoners have nothing. For them it is all or nothing. To become a slave or become someone. They see that they have a chance to change their lives and they do everything they can to achieve success. In chemistry class the commoners talk with each other on different types of information they study to be able to understand it better. I call it brainstorming. The kids brainstorm different topics as a group. It causes them to explain things to each other and understand the topics even better. The nobles try to hide their success and not speak about what they understand because their way of thinking is different. Each of them wants to get all the benefits. It causes the difference to become bigger and bigger with time. As for the martial classes. Here the commoners have some advantages. The system gave them access to the swordsmanship skill, but the nobles have a lot more time to train. I opened a sparring option for all the people to spar between each other. In the beginning the nobles were killing and humiliating the commoners. It was quite disgusting to watch but I knew things will change quickly. It was not done to study by the noble brats but to keep their ego high. It did not work for long because the commoners came to study. After relatively short time the commoners cached up and the nobles got destroyed. It will be more and more evident as time continue to pass. Nothing really can change it. The only thing is to threaten the noble brats to lose everything if they will not work. I don't think you will do such a thing. This is the main reason. Even if you did it may lead to the kids doing not the right choice and going to do some crazy stuff that get them expelled or killed."
The room was silent for a long time.
Max continued: "If you want the country to grow, we are heading to the right direction, but the next generation of strong fighters will most likely will not include your children in it. Maybe Albert and nobles like him will not fall, but they will not rise much either."
The nobles were gloomy. They did not like what they heard. Nothing of it.
