"Dear students, I think walking like this is not an option. Walking on a snowy ground is difficult and I think we need a mount or something. How is it?"
Ainsley was not arrogant and didn't use her prestige as the teacher to force her opinion on the students.
She was here to assist the students, not to let the students 'eat' passively and was 'fed' recklessly.
And so, Ainsley kindly asked the students' opinions to develop their own decision-making skills.
The students other than Finley were all taken aback by Ainsley's action.
To be honest, even if students and instructors could have conflicts and the hierarchy was not so strict, in the end, instructors had more power.
Thus, it was not uncommon for instructors, especially strong ones, to make decisions for the students and students had no choice but to obey.
This was the first time a strong instructor actually took into consideration the students' own opinions and ideas!
The two students were a bit flustered, unaccustomed to the way Ainsley treated them.
College students had more freedom and rights than junior and senior high school students like them when going against instructors or getting the instructors to respect their ideas and plans.
So far, these two geniuses had already gone through many field trips arranged by the academy to give them real-life battle experience.
However, most of the time, they still could not make their own decisions and the instructors assigned to their team would be the leader in charge of leading them with everything.
Only when they joined the academy's tournament would they have a chance to experience things truly on their own.
But the tournament was only held once a year or maybe once every three years.
How could it be compared to the number of field trips arranged every summer and winter vacation?
Facing Ainsley's action, the two students subconsciously looked at Finley, who kept his calm, as if he was not surprised by the treatment at all.
Finley was not like these two students who were not used to being treated like this because before he went to the academy, he was trained as an heir, and he had to make countless decisions related to the family's matters.
He had cultivated his leadership skill, and even when the academy restricted his freedom and his decision-making ability, he could still convince his instructors with his outstanding talent and ability.
Finley nodded at his seniors and tried to help them to adjust to Ainsley's way of treating her students.
This should be Ainsley's first time having a student and being someone else's guardian, but she must have taught a lot of people in her guild somehow.
So, she should be experienced in terms of being a teacher.
Her way of treating the students like this should also have its own reasons.
ƥαṇdαηθνε| "Seniors, the instructor is only here to assist our mission and not to complete the missions on our behalf while we do nothing."
The boy smiled gently at the seniors and his iconic golden hair shone brightly even with the weak winter sunlight in the middle of a snowy mountain.
"The instructor wants us to form a plan and if she accepts it, then we can execute the plan. If we don't have any plans, then we can ask for her advice."
The academy did try to promote some changes to the instructors in the past few years, which was why, many instructors gave a lot more freedom to the students but the burden on the instructors also increased.
Even now, many contestants who were used to taking the lead in everything would get some warning messages from time to time to prevent the contestants from meddling too much.
What the Academy wanted to assess was the instructor's ability to guide their assigned students, promote the growth of their students and protect the students on their way of becoming stronger.
Many ability users were strong, but not all strong ability users could become instructors in this academy.
The old instructors had all been slowly changed over time and even if the old instructors still stayed at the academy, they were also required to change the way they teach.
Maybe because the movement of the Abyss was becoming more worrying in the past decades, so the academy had also slowly changed their mindset.
Students did have a lot of freedom in the academy because they could even create their own faction and such, but when facing instructors, they did become too dependent, especially those who were not college students yet.
Most students who created factions or joined factions and seriously developed their factions in the academy were college students while others who were not college students joined just for fun.
They treated factions as clubs and not as a serious organization with its own impact.
The academy now wanted to slowly change the mindset of these young geniuses, especially those who basically grew up in the academy.
As for students like Finley who already have his own mindset and principle, the academy also didn't block his path and even actively promote the little boy as a role model for future generations.
The two students listened to Finley's suggestion and only then did they try to do something and tell their opinions to the instructor.
These geniuses might be arrogant in front of peers, juniors, and even seniors, but few of them dared to go against instructors.
It was mostly the college students who dared to oppose instructors.
But now, many students who were sent to this island dared to oppose the contestants one after another because the contestants were not considered official instructors yet.
