With so much to do at home, Melody did not have time to continue wasting with them. She would let her lawyer handle it if they refused to come to their senses. After all, they were just acquaintances to her, no particularly important friends. They might never see each other again after Melody left the dance studio. What they thought had nothing to do with her.

At that moment, the teacher hurriedly emerged from the innermost classroom. "There you are, Melody. I was wondering why you haven't arrived yet after contacting me earlier. I see you're being held up by the other students."

The teacher stood in front of Melody and turned to warn the other students, "You're all students of the dance studio, I warn you not to speak recklessly outside. Especially you, Carmen. You don't get to have everything you want, do you understand? You're all adults and should know what to do and what not to do. Instead of wasting your time like this, you should learn from Melody how to perfect your dance moves!"

All the dance teachers praised Melody for her talent, but all it did was make the other students hate her more.

One of them scoffed. "It all boils down to talent in the end, but besides talent, what else does she have? I don't understand why you all praise her so highly. Is it just because she's a big star? Miss, I know you all favor her, but who can say that there won't be any stars among us in the future? There's no need to look down on us like this."

She said the last sentence very softly, but the teacher still heard it. The teacher crossed her arms and laughed coldly. "It seems like it's been a long time since I've taught you all a lesson. How can you even say something like that? Forget about Melody. All of you need to surpass me before you can even challenge her, do you understand? Even I can't dance with the same natural grace as her. All of you need at least a few more years before you can even be on the same level as her!"

Carmen and the others became even more resentful after that.

"Miss, why can't we challenge her since we're all students of this dance studio? You always say she's talented, but how long has she been training here? We've been practicing for at least two years. So how can you show such blatant favoritism? Melody, since the teachers praise you so much, how about we have a showdown? I'll naturally respect you if you can beat me, and I promise I won't ever bring up the incident again. So how about it?"

Carmen's suggestion ignited everyone's excitement. They were all professional dancers who had trained in this studio for at least two years. They refused to believe that all of them together could not match Melody's skills.

The teacher seemed inclined to speak up for Melody, but she intervened, "Miss, I know you care about me, but there are things I have to handle on my own."

Melody might soon leave this studio herself, but the teacher would still have to continue teaching, and if she continued to stand up for Melody, it might offend the students. That would be detrimental to her getting more students in the future.

'It's just a showdown. I haven't danced today so I'll just consider it as warm-up.' thought Melody.

She stepped forward gently. "Sure, what do you want to compete in?"

Others also got excited; nobody expected Melody to actually take on this challenge. Especially Carmen, who was considered outstanding among them and had received several invitations to international competitions.
