Chapter 157 Bad Character
Nash was a lot calmer than others. He knew that some of the Student Union members were involved in
some shady practices, but it was an unspoken rule anyway.
He looked at them gloomily and berated, “Ronin, I told you not to escalate the conflict due to your
personal grudge. We’re talking about if you get to qualify for the next round. Don’t try to shift the focus,
okay?”
Catherine raised her head and settled her cold gaze on Nash. To her surprise, this guy looked like a
man of honor but turned out to be so vile. Ronin noticed that she intended to do something, so he just
stopped talking and waited for her to speak. Catherine raised her head and looked at the judges.
“I have only one question. You question our qualification for the next round, believing that our character
is bad. Then, do we have the right to suspect your qualification as the judges as you’ve been engaged
in shady practices and embezzled public funds?”
Since they didn’t want to determine the victory in terms of ability but character, Catherine wouldn’t mind
finding out whose character was better.
Catherine’s voice was not loud but powerful, which penetrated everyone’s ears and heart. None of
them were fools. Catherine had made it quite clear.
It would be perfectly justifiable if Elena didn’t allow Catherine’s team to qualify for the next round due to
their bad singing.
However, it was indisputable that Catherine’s team sang really well. Then, Elena pointed out that they
had bad characters, so they couldn’t advance to the next round. In this case, what about the judges?

If the judges didn’t conduct themselves well, how could they make such a comment? The discussion
gradually intensified. Nash looked even more saturnine. The several seniors of the Student Union were
also rather embarrassed.
Some of them even started to accuse Elena, saying that she shouldn’t have caused such trouble for
everyone. Elena was too incensed to speak. She really didn’t expect that Ronin would know so many
things.
And worse still, he wasn’t afraid of offending the Student Union and just disclosed it in public. Now, she
could only hope that Nash would turn the tables.
Nash was really in a plight. He never knew Catherine’s team could be so tough. Yet, for the sake of the
Student Union’s interest, he had no other choice but to resolve the problem.
“Please stop slandering the Student Union. If you have any evidence, you may report this to the school.
Now, you’re in a competition. Please don’t waste our time anymore. Many more performers are waiting
to get on the stage! You’re slandering the Student Union with a fabricated excuse only to put off the
competition and make us compromise. This is too despicable and also unfair for other students!”
After Nash finished speaking, Elena really wanted to clap her hands for him. She felt that he had made
a great speech.
She hastened to chime in, “Exactly! You’re deliberately delaying the competition in this way only to
make us compromise. Do you think we’re really afraid of you? Shame on you!”
“Shame on us? Hmph…” Catherine sneered with a hint of coldness flashing across her beautiful face.
“If some unvirtuous people really seize the power, there will be a real disaster then!
Her voice was imposing and potent. “How about this? We’ll go to the leaders of the school and talk this
through. We’ll provide evidence and let them judge. If they still think you’re qualified as the judges, we’ll
be fine with losing then!”
That was quite a tough one!
Catherine’s team was really tough!
If other people were unsatisfied with the outcome, they would diss the judges at worst. However,
Catherine meant to drag all the judges down.
Catherine’s natural and graceful demeanor as well as her imposing temperament just convinced
everyone that she had solid evidence.
Before Nash could react, the other seniors of the Student Union couldn’t restrain themselves anymore.
They were all part of the two things Ronin mentioned just now.
They didn’t know what else Ronin and Catherine had got. If Ronin and Catherine laid bare all the
things, it would be hard to say how they would be punished by the school, let alone be the judges of
this event.
Everyone was persuading Nash to make a concession.
Yet, they didn’t dare to make it too clear. After all, if they said too much, it would actually indicate that
they were guilty.
As the situation entered into a stalemate, someone suddenly stood up. It was Terry Hanke, one of the
judges. Everyone looked at him and wondered what he wanted to do. With a serious face, Terry fixed
his eyes on Nash coldly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe said sternly, “This is a serious competition of the celebration gala, but it’s become such a ridiculous
drama! Good for you!”
Nash didn’t know how to respond. In his eyes, Terry was quite a geek. Terry was talented and yet never
talked to others. As the top student in music, he was made one of the judges.
Yet, Terry was too difficult. Now, he suddenly stepped forward. No one knew what he was up to. Terry
pointed at Catherine and her teammates on the stage with an approving look. His voice was powerful
with a tone of admiration.
“I dare say this team is the best I’ve seen on this stage. This is a music competition. If the best team
can’t qualify for the next round, what’s the point of this competition then?
“Just to clarify, if this team can’t advance to the next round, I won’t be the judge, then. A silly show isn’t
for me!”
Terry was tough beyond words, causing an immediate sensation. The audience present felt that
Catherine’s team performed really well, but they were not professional. They simply had a feeling that it
sounded nice.
Now, the comments of Terry, a recognized professional, were undoubtedly a slap in the face of the
judges who didn’t allow Catherine’s team to advance to the next round.
The other judges all looked awkward. It was no longer their call at this point. Elena was rather anxious
at the moment. She knew that she would be in trouble if this went on. She hastily asked for Liana’s
help. Liana was driven nuts by Elena’s pushing and started to curse her inwardly.
However, now, she and Elena were in the same boat. She had no other choice but to help Elena. She
whispered to Nash, giving him a tip. Nash immediately made a decision.
“Everybody, listen up. Now, there is a division of opinion on the matter. So, I suggest having a pause.
The competition will continue when we discuss this and work out a conclusion. Please be patient!”
