312 Good Acting!
Roderick, the head referee of the afternoon’s matches, rushed to Fanny’s side when he saw Fanny suddenly fall to the ground. After a quick examination, he stood up and gestured to stop the match. He did not even call for the doctor on standby.
“Fanny is fine. He’s just unconscious,” he calmly explained. Then he approached Moss, raised his left hand, and announced Moss as the winner.
“Whoa!
“Was Moss just lucky?! He defeated a senior in one blow!”
“Don’t be unconvinced. Luck is also an essential part of the competition.”
“I’d like to see how long this kid’s luck can last.”
...
Amidst the sparse applause and heated discussions, Moss exited the ring after expressing his gratitude to the audience around him.
“You’ve done well, kid!”
“Moss, your performance was too good!” Bishop and Nat complimented him.
Bishop was genuinely impressed by Moss’s performance and ability to adapt to the situation, while Nat was enthusiastic.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“They’re the ones who gave us more opportunities to win!” Moss laughed.
At this moment, the other team members also gathered around and congratulated Moss.
“We’re in the lead by 4:2. It’s our turn now! Let’s try to end the battle in two matches, ” Gavin said to the other three second-year students as he clenched his fists.
There was no suspense in the next two matches as Co-captain Gavin and Benedict did not give their opponents a chance to even the score. They won swiftly and completed their tasks beautifully.
Kyoto took the lead in the top 64 with a score of 6:2 in the A2 half-zone. Their next opponents, Hanwu Institute and Liren University, were in a fierce battle. As these two institutes were not strong, they would not obstruct Kyoto”s advancement into the top 32.
Moss suggested immediately after the team won, “Let’s go and watch the matches between Donghu University, China Aerospace Science and Technology University, and Military University!”
His reasoning behind his words was that these three teams had higher chances of becoming Kyoto’s opponents for their next matches.
On the other hand, these three teams were top ten contenders. Their overall strength was substantial, so how could Moss let go of the opportunity to indirectly improve his strength by watching the three teams’ matches?
It was especially true for strong teams like these.
“Excellent suggestion! Then let’s not delay any further and act!” Bishop quickly gave his affirmation.
Before dismissing the team members, he reminded them, “Everyone, take notes on your observations. I want to hear everyone’s input during our next preparation meeting for our advancement to the top 32 and top 16. Dismissed!”
The team members mobilized as soon as Bishop finished speaking. This time, Nat naturally watched the matches with Moss. With the experience she had gained from watching and discussing matches over the last two days, she was now Moss’s most capable assistant among the entire team.
Not only could she accompany Moss to watch the competition, but she could also analyze and discuss things with him. Furthermore, after spending two days together analyzing matches, the duo had formed a near-perfect tacit understanding of each other.
Since someone else had taken their spot in the audience stands last time, Moss and Nat had to find another spot to sit down.
Moss glanced at Nat, who had quickly entered a state of focus, and suddenly felt that she was beautiful. He could not help but mumble inwardly, ‘A serious woman is still the most beautiful!’
Then he put aside his smile and started to watch the matches seriously.
Nat noticed Moss looking at her from the corner of her eye. Although it did not linger, Nat’s beautiful face blushed when she noticed Moss’s smile. With her heart pounding, Nat could only use her spiritual power to control herself. As she gradually recovered, Nat quickly regained her focus on the matches.
...
Time seemed to pass quickly whenever Moss fully immersed himself in one thing. In the blink of an eye, the matches in the A2 half had ended.
Moss stretched lazily, yawned twice, and said to Nat with bright eyes, “Aww, time passed too quickly. I hadn’t had enough of it before it ended.”
He had not watched enough, especially the matches concerning Donghu University, China Aerospace Science and Technology University, and Military University.
After an afternoon of watching the competition, Moss vaguely felt that his spiritual power and level had improved to a certain extent. He felt satisfied with watching high-level matches.
Although, it was more difficult for him to use his spiritual power to sense and achieve the effect he wanted in such a competition. Still, it brought him a great harvest.
On the one hand, he used this method to understand his opponents better, his spiritual power potency, and his skills’ strengths and weaknesses.
On the other hand, the higher the target’s level, the higher the requirement on his spiritual power, and the more time he had to spend to compare and deduce their skills.
However, the increase in his spiritual power and combat experience was also more apparent.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Haven’t you seen enough? I admire your patience!” Nat turned to Moss as she spoke. When she turned around, she realized she was looking right into Moss’s eyes, and the two were very close.
They were so close that she could feel Moss’s breath. Furthermore, she believed Moss’s open arms would hug her at any time.
Swish!
Nat’s face instantly turned red, and her heartbeat fastened.
“I-I’m not feeling too well. I’ll return to the resting area for now,” With that said, Nat did not wait for Moss to respond and retreated as if facing a great enemy.
Moss lowered his stretching arms and helplessly spread his hands as he muttered lowly, “Girls are so bizarre. They’re fine one second but can become uncomfortable the next.”
Looking at the gradually emptying arena, he also stood up and left.
...
Meanwhile, Locke made himself a pot of high-quality tea in an antique room. He was thinking about all the matches today as it was his habit. Every night before he went to bed, he would take time to recall what had happened and summarize the day. After a moment, a playful smile appeared on his face.
“You’re still pretending, I see.”
Moss’s performance today did not attract the audience’s attention, but it did not escape Locke’s eyes.
After returning from the arena, he further understood Moss’s situation. The more he understood, the more he realized how extraordinary Moss was.
The more Locke learned about Moss, the more he believed that Moss had deliberately hidden his strength in these few matches.
“Haha, it seems like I can’t underestimate the heart of a champion! Monte didn’t give up on the championship. He just changed his university’s way of pursuing the championship,” Locke muttered.
It seemed like he was getting old. He had only just managed to see through President Monte’s thoughts. That’s right. How could Monte easily give up his pursuit of the championship title?
Locke became even more curious. He was eager to see what Moss’s true strength was like.
“Let’s see how you hide your true strength in the top 16 against Donghu University,” Locke muttered as the corners of his mouth curled upward.
