Meanwhile, in the waiting hall, Team Moss lay on the ground, their faces filled with the joy of victory.
Even though Team Moss didn’t know the final results, they were already proud of their performance.
Alan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the ceiling. Then he said with inparable joy, “Moss, this team petition is insane. When we received the tier-one mission, I thought we couldn’t plete it. But we managed to clear the two-star Mystic Realm in the end!”
Moss recalled the information he read in the library a few days ago and couldn’t help but express his feelings, “That’s the power of teamwork. Although we have limits, we produce unexpected power when we unite. That’s why we could face such mighty Magical Beasts.”
Team Moss finally pleted the team Mystic Realm petition, and Baylon wanted to share his joy with his classmates and teachers.
“Captain Moss, we’ve pleted the mission. Do you want to get out of here?”
“Let’s wait for Mill and the others. I think they’re about to e out of the Spatial Rift soon,” Moss replied firmly.
A moment later, Moss felt a fluctuation in the Spatial Realm. Then the Super Whirlwinds walked out.
Moss noticed that it wasn’t Team Mill, so he closed his eyes to rest and enjoy his time after a tiring petition.
Team Moss didn’t react to the Super Whirlwinds, but when the Super Whirlwinds discovered that the Knight’s team had pleted their mission before them, they couldn’t help but take a few steps back and rub their eyes repeatedly.
“W-Why are they already out of the mission area?!” Will asked in confusion as if he’d seen a ghost.
Captain Miller was also surprised when he saw Moss. His expression immediately became solemn.
However, after a calm analysis, Miller thought that the Knight’s team couldn’t plete the tier-three mission. ‘Hmph, they must’ve run away before finishing their mission.’
Miller quickly regained his calm and said lightly, “Don’t make a fuss. They must’ve run away before finishing their mission. Even if they did plete their mission, it wouldn’t be a big deal. Their mission difficulty can’t pose a threat to us. The championship will belong to us.”
Hearing Miller’s words, the members of the Super Whirlwinds instantly returned to their usual demeanor. Then they arrogantly walked out of the waiting hall.
…
All the teams had pleted the team Mystic Realm petition when Number Twelve High’s team walked out of the one-and-a-half-star Mystic Realm.
The team Mystic Realm petition, which was supposed to have no suspense, became more interesting because Team Moss was the first to plete the tier-three mission.
Even though most people still thought the Super Whirlwinds were the true winners, more and more spectators began to have expectations toward Team Moss, who repeatedly performed miracles.
Then Davis’s attractive voice sounded just as the audience looked forward to the final result of the team Mystic Realm petition.
“Ladies and gentlemen, there are four awards in this petition, with the Future Star award being the newest addition.”
“To increase suspense and make the petition more enjoyable, the organizing mittee has decided to announce the results of the team Mystic Realm when the team Player Kill petition enters its second half.”
“Now, let’s give a warm applause to the contestants who have given us a wonderful performance!”
When Davis finished speaking, some audience members immediately responded with boos.
However, most of the other audience members, who were only there to watch the games, were delighted with the organizing mittee’s decision. Thunderous applause and loud chants echoed in various areas of the audience stands.
Davis excitedly looked at the giant screen above the stadium when the applause subsided. Then he cleared his throat and shouted, “Ladies and gentlemen, the team Mystic Realm petition has now ended.”
“But starting tomorrow, the thirty-two teams, or one hundred and sixty participants, will pete in an even more exciting event, the individual Player Kill petition!”
“In the next four days, thirty-two participants will enter the knockout stage to pete for the championship! The petition wouldn’t be as exciting without all of you! We will see you tomorrow, ladies and gentlemen!”
The Team Mystic Realm petition ended with Davis’s impassioned words, but the audience was still immersed in the tense and exhilarating petition that occurred that day.
At the same time, infinite expectations for the individual Player Kill petition tomorrow filled the audience’s hearts.
…
In a vast, exquisitely decorated room, behind a rectangular mahogany table, sat a burly middle-aged man frowning. Campbell respectfully reported, “Mr. Taylor, I have sent out a few teams to scout and verify the information. I’ll tell you the details of the report now.”
“The Youth Forces drew the green tag, the fourth most challenging mission, while Number Nine High drew the black tag, the most difficult of them all. White Deer High’s two teams picked the green tag, the fifth in difficulty, and the red tag, the easiest mission.”
Taylor heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Campbell’s report. He gently tapped on the report and asked, “What mission did that Knight’s team draw?”
Campbell wiped the sweat off his lips and trembled as he said, “W-We couldn’t find out, Mr. Taylor. White Deer High is good at keeping secrets. Their ten petitors quickly left by car as soon as the petition ended.”
Taylor waved his hand, signaling Campbell to leave. He looked at the report before him and fell into deep thought.
‘It seems that the Knight’s team got the simplest mission. Even though they had the time advantage in the third stage, there’s a huge gap between their mission difficulty and ours.’
‘As for Team Mill, they don’t have the time and mission difficulty advantage, so they’re even less of a concern to me. I don’t even need to worry about the individual Player Kill petition.’
‘There are five students among the Super Whirlwinds, and each is a good player. Moreover, they will take care of each other. Our chance at the championship will not fall by the wayside.’
‘There’s even less to worry about in the team Player Kill petition. The five of them have been working alongside each other for more than a year. They are the most outstanding among the same grade students, regardless of skill or level.’
Taylor lit a cigarette and laughed happily at the thought of this.
…
Meanwhile, the directors of Number Three, Six, and Nine High sat around a tea table in a secret room decorated with antiques, discussing something.
“Big Brother, I have already arranged everything according to your instructions. Campbell knows that our team picked a black tag mission,” Number Nine High’s director said as he respectfully took a cup of tea from Number Three High’s director.
“Well done. Now Taylor thinks that White Deer High drew the fifth and easiest missions. That way, he won’t be suspicious of them anymore.”
“Yeah, but unbeknownst to him, the Youth Forces and Team Mill are strong contenders.”
“Hahaha!” Number Three High’s director suddenly laughed. Then his expression turned cold again as he said, “Brothers, we must pay attention to Team Mill in the following matches. They will be strong contenders on our way to the championship. We must work together to eliminate Team Mill in the individual Player Kill petition as soon as possible.”
“Yes, Big Brother.”
