I'd rather these 'gems' live up to their hype of being the best of the best, having graduated the harshness of Tootsuki and are actually a level above the most capable students.
To me, I feel it's pointless to introduce these kind of characters, with these kind of hype, only to be brought down by a student, even if he's the main character.

From what I've seen so far Tootsuki seems more like a Sith Academy
They don't really teach you anything. They just weed out those belong and those who don't
but just like the Sith Academy, there's actually a lot of luck and other factors involved. So the last person standing isn't necessarily the one who has say.. 99 points in every stats.
If he loses to the protagonist it doesn't mean the instructor is weak. It just means that the main character is even more of a special snowflake.
