319 I’ll Give 99 Points for His Decision!
“Is something wrong with Moss?!”
“What is he doing? Is he joking?”
“If he chose the second option, Kyoto would win the match point with a score of 5:2! It’s probably 4:3 now!”
“That’s interesting. Moss is always able to bring us unexpected results!”
“What a character. I’d like to see how this match will end.”
…
The audience had different opinions, but they all wanted to see what would happen next.
…
The initially quiet Donghu resting area was now in an uproar. The team members were excited.
“If Moss had chosen the second option just now, the pressure would have been on us. We must win the next three matches to participate in the team matches!” Donghu’s co-captain, Asa, said with a lingering fear.
boxn ov el. c o m“Yeah, it’s hard to say for sure now. Bishop is stronger than I thought.
“So this match is vital to us. Only by winning this match can we have a chance to finish them in the top 16!”
Captain Ya Heng’s tightly furrowed brows relaxed a little. He looked at Asa and the last two participants, Ban and Burke, saying, ” The three of you must make proper preparations. It’s all up to you guys later.”
“Don’t worry, Captain Ya Heng!” The trio replied in unison.
Captain Ya Heng noticed the trio’s confidence, and his initially tangled heart felt much better. When Roderick announced Moss’s decision, he had been thinking about how to deal with Bishop’s positive and negative buffs in the five-on-five matches.
He felt a headache forming when he thought about the problems Bishop’s positive and negative buffs would give him. While everyone from Donghu was secretly rejoicing, the team leader, Lisa, was frowning.
She sat beside Ya Heng and said lowly, “Ya Heng, Atwood’s match might not have an optimistic outcome. We must prepare for the last three matches.”
“How is that?” Ya Heng raised his eyebrows and looked at Lisa with a puzzled expression.
“I didn’t expect such a situation to occur, so I didn’t consider Atwood to summon a tamed Magical Beasts. However, I’ve heard from some students who got into our university that Moss has a mythical Magical Beast.
“In this year’s college entrance exam, the candidates had to face the Sky-Howling Demonic Wolf. When Moss’s Magical Beast appeared, the Sky-Howling Demonic Wolf immediately knelt before it. Therefore, we must prepare well for the last three matches.”
Ya Heng’s pupils contracted, and his heart sank. ‘Could it be the legendary beast?’
However, he quickly dispelled this thought. From what he understood, this was impossible. Hence, Ya Heng, who had regained his calm, said, ” “Leader Lisa, we’re confident in the next three matches.”
He paused and looked at Lisa smilingly. He continued, “About what you said just now, was it a rumor a first-year student had heard? The Sky-Howling Demonic Wolf is supposedly one of the most powerful of tamed Magical Beasts.”
Although Atwood could no longer use his Golden Liger, he had his Sky-Howling Demonic Wolf. Whether it was taming magic beasts or Atwood himself, Atwood was better than Moss. Therefore, Ya Heng was still confident in Atwood.
“It shouldn’t be a baseless rumor. More than one student told me that,” Lisa said with a severe expression.
She felt uneasy thinking about how Moss had tamed Magical Beasts. Although Ya Heng’s words had comforted her, she was still worried because Moss was always able to create miracles.
As she thought about this, she quickly stood up and found a suitable position to spectate what was happening in ring two.
Captain Ya Heng followed suit as he wanted to see what kind of Magical Beast Moss had tamed.
…
Hearing Moss’s choice, the team members and professors in Kyoto’s resting area stood up one after another, their gazes locked onto ring two.
“Captain Bishop, isn’t Moss’s decision a little too rash? What’s going on?” Gerard frowned and asked hesitantly.
It was his second time participating in the competition, and he wanted to defend Kyoto’s title to put a perfect end to his journey. That was why Gerard did not want his teammates or himself to make any mistakes in their matches.
“Captain Bishop, we would have reached match point by now if Moss wasn’t so impulsive. Co-captain Gavin should be able to end it in the next match.” Noel said in puzzlement.
Although he knew of Moss’s strength, he felt there was no need to take risks and that it was more important to be safe. Noel’s thinking and starting point were similar to Gerard’s
As it was his first time participating in a competition, he wanted to win it to enrich his resume.
Bishop said smilingly, “I understand everyone’s concerns, but we must believe in our teammate and support Moss’s choice. Although I don’t know his reasons, I think his decision is quite commendable.”
Bishop paused as his eyes swept across his team members one by one. He continued, “If Moss chose the second option, it wouldn’t be convincing if we won the competition. It’s not a big deal, even if Moss loses. We just have to win two of the remaining three matches. That’s how defending champions should behave!”
“Captain Bishop is right. Let’s cheer for Moss!” Sofia shouted as she looked at everyone.
“Yes, ma’am!” Kyoto’s team members responded in unison. Their morale was at an all-time high.
“Moss has quite the personality, and I like it. No wonder he beat me,” Benedict, standing beside Bishop, mumbled.
“Hahaha, I think you’re still looking for a way out of losing 10% of your GPA!” Bishop teased Benedict to ease the tension in the atmosphere.
“Captain Bishop, can’t you just go along with what I said? My young heart is very fragile!” Benedict said, pretending to be pitiful.
“Only the weak need tempering. Isn’t there a saying, ‘pressure creates diamonds?'” Bishop replied as Kyoto’s team members’ laughs echoed throughout the resting area.
…
Roderick heard Moss’s decision and was shocked. When the judges discussed the outcome, they did not expect Moss to make such a decision.
Moss chose the first option because he was giving Donghu University a chance. After all, Donghu was one of the top ten institutes, and Moss did not want to embarrass them.
Roderick wondered if he should ask why Moss decided on option one when Chief Judge Jay Jie’s voice sounded in his earpiece, “Roderick, ask Moss why he chose option one. We can publicize it if it’s a positive one.”
Roderick replied, “Okay.” Then he smiled at Moss and asked, “Student Moss, you would have gotten the match point if you chose the second option. Why did you choose to continue your match instead?”
Moss nodded, and without hesitation, he said indifferently, “Winning with option two goes against my spirit of chivalry. In addition, this competition is a stage for first- and second-year students to exchange and learn from each other.
“Everyone can only participate in this twice, and I don’t want Atwood to have a lifetime of regrets because of this match.”
The arena burst into thunderous applause and heated discussions as soon as Moss’s voice fell.
“Well said! That Moss kid shattered my expectations with his words,” Belinda, an Eastern Institute second-year student, said with teary eyes.
Sitting beside Belinda, Mia stood up and said, “I’ll give Moss 99 points for his decision. I gave him one point less because I fear he’ll become complacent. I’m also afraid he won’t do it again.”
At that moment, Mill, sitting beside Mia, became teary-eyed. Moss’s words made her admire him even more. His seemingly familiar words made her reminisce about her life with him in the elite training camp.
Suddenly, a voice echoed from the judge’s seat, “Well said, Moss!
