The random bunny girl art in the middle of the chap threw me out of the loop for a sec there.

Weird for it to be there and not at the beginning or end of the chap.

Yes Angelica's back!!!! And introduced in almost the same way as the last arc too XD
This school is pretty messed up I have to say, it makes no sense why they'd want to get rid of their best students.
And it's good to see Rick demolish the challenges and stun everyone again
Actually they want to purge the "troublesome" students to keep their high level status and quality. The only one that is actually good besides the "Hidden OP" MC is Ark, but is looked down due to being a commoner, while Henry is the best at written exam and the worst at practical, then Guile which is Henry opossite aka best at practical worst at written, so both are quite flawed individuals with very good points but also quite bad ones. Meanwhile Rick is quite old being 32 when having people in their early 20s is already rare plus having really low mana

They probably prefer a 50-50 student than a 100-0 student

Which one has a higher rank, Second Class knight instuctor, or Angelica as First Class knight? I feel like first class >> second class but have no idea what rankings in here really are.

She has the higher knight ranking but she's only there as a guest trainer so the instructor has the actual authority over the class.

it's in fact the "beginning of the chapter" , the chapters are published split every two weeks, and because azhuresky decided to leave the pages as is

Still no Second class is as stupid to piss of a First class Knight. The instructor has the authority in theory but he wont risk a direct confrontation with Angelica, specially when she is considered a prodigy by reaching First Class rank at just 17 years old.

A Sarge may be the one responsible to train their cadets, still its unwise for them to antagonize a superior

At least not in public, but it wouldn't be unheard of for the veteran NCO to pull the newbie CO off to the side in private and chastise them if needed.

Yes as long as the veteran isnt being a jackass and being called for it, and in this case First Grade Knight is not only a superior rank, but also comparing a regular Army soldier with a Special Forces one, so its not like she only scratched her ass to reach that rank, specially as a woman

This isn't the first time right? I could have sworn they did that before and it made me think the chap was over so when I read the next chap I was hella confused to the sudden development.

Still Rick has a low presence specially compared with Blowstone senpai or Kelvin, thats why his name kinda sounded a bell but people didnt remember from where exactly

I actually expected Angelica's older brother to be the one that appears this time. Does that mean the whole story will only stick to Angelica and nothing for her 2 brothers?

Poor Angie, can't go anywhere without Rick showing up to demolish the place immediately after she starts.
I strongly suspect she’s also the romantic lead (not always so straightforward in a comedy, but it seems likely) so she needs to keep getting more exposure to the overpowered MC to justify having them fall in lurve by the end.

Different chain of command. Different responsibilities.
Angelica is a "regular" knight, and the instructor is a Knight-Instructor. The instructor could well be a First-Class Knight himself, but that is irrelevant in the situation here, as his function as Instructor has precedence over actual rank.
They're on the training grounds in the academy, after all.

It's the military concept of "functional superiority", where a lower rank can and must give orders to higher ranked people, because that is their job.
The most common occurences are related to safety issues, like on a firing range. But the most often encountered situations by squaddies is the dreaded Standing Guard and snotty officers..

As mentioned above, a certain measure of Politics is required in excercising this power. You "request" or "politely advise" the higher ranked individual to do what you want. And if you do need to give a bollocking, you do it in private, or let their superior take care of that.
And good officers learned to "Listen to your Sergeants" very early on. ..
