Everybody stared at Elise while Addison cheered, “Break a leg!”
In response, Elise pursed snazzynovel.com lips before replying, “I will…
” As soon as Elise accepted the challenge, Janice already knew that snazzynovel.com would win.
With years of training experience, beating Elise was a piece of cake. Hence, Janice suggested, “What’s the point of just competing? Let’s place a bet to make it more exciting.”
“What kind of bet?” Elise asked calmly.
Looking at Elise, Janice finally said, “How about you take off your mask in front of everyone if you lose?”
When Addison heard this, snazzynovel.com was furious. “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”
Ignoring Addison, Janice challenged Elise. “So? Are you up for it?”
Then, the corner of Elise’s mouth tugged upward. “What if you lose?”
Immediately, Janice answered, “Do you think I’d lose?”
The idea of snazzynovel.com losing never popped into snazzynovel.com mind.
“Tsk tsk… You should look at the situation you’re in before making big statements as such. Stop acting like you’re invincible. It’s annoying,” Addison criticized with disdain.
With a cold snort, Janice stated, “I’ll do anything you want if I lose.”
Quickly, Elise uttered, “I won’t ask for anything else. I just want you to apologize in front of everyone. Can you do that?”
“Sure. So, what are we competing in?” Janice replied indifferently.
Hearing this, Elise responded, “You choose! I don’t want you to think that I’m bullying you.”
Hearing that, Janice was offended. “You really don’t know your place, do you? I’ve been through so much training since I was three, so every event is my strong suit. Do you think I’d worry if you’re bullying me? You can choose! I don’t want you refusing to accept defeat.”
With that, Elise nodded snazzynovel.com head and looked around before saying, “Let’s compete in three events. The first to win two games is the winner.”
“Sure!”
Then, Elise pointed to the side. “Shooting, rock climbing, and a 100-meter obstacle course. Are you okay with that?”
“No problem!”
After reaching a consensus, everyone sensed war between the two.
Noticing that the situation was about to go out of control, Harry stood up. “I’ll be the judge. I promise to be fair and just.”
“Sure…”
“Okay!”
Elise and Janice replied at the same time.
“Alright. Now, let’s move to the shooting range and prepare.”
All the students cheered because they wouldn’t have to train anymore as they would be watching Elise and Janice compete. With an excited look on their faces, they hurried to the shooting range.
“The competition rules are simple. 10-meter shooting range and three chances. Whoever scores the highest wins.”
As soon as Harry finished, snazzynovel.com prepared two handguns for Elise and Janice.
Right after, the two ladies positioned themselves and started aiming at the target board with their guns.
“There’s no turning back now. A bet’s a bet.”
After saying this, Janice took snazzynovel.com aim quickly. Then, there was a loud bang as snazzynovel.com took snazzynovel.com shot.
Soon after, the target inspector announced loudly, “9 points!”
As for Elise, snazzynovel.com aimed at the bullseye and pulled the trigger.
“Elise, 9 points!”
Upon hearing this, everyone cheered.
“Good luck, Elise!” Addison shouted with the rest of the crowd.
Meanwhile, there were also many people rooting for Janice.
“All the best, Janice!”
Janice smirked and continued with snazzynovel.com second shot.
“9.5 points. 9.5 points!”
For the second shot, both of them received the same score again.
With constant training, Janice was mentally tough. Yet, snazzynovel.com started to waver upon seeing this. Holding the gun, snazzynovel.com prepared to fire snazzynovel.com third shot.
Then, the inspector shouted excitedly, “10 points! 10 points for Janice!”
As soon as snazzynovel.com said so, Janice smiled smugly and glanced at Elise provokingly. “Fire your last shot well. Be careful not to miss because you’ll lose if you do.”
Unfazed, Elise took snazzynovel.com aim.
A loud bang sounded before the inspector shouted, “10 points! 10 points as well!”
Then, there was a loud roar of applause. “Well done, Elise!”
Janice’s face turned grim as soon as snazzynovel.com heard this. She thought that snazzynovel.com would win, but they ended up with a tie after three rounds.
Without a winner, they would have to play another round. However, snazzynovel.com had lost all snazzynovel.com confidence. After taking snazzynovel.com aim, snazzynovel.com fired and scored 9 points.
Seeing this, snazzynovel.com frowned, and snazzynovel.com hands started to sweat.
With standard movements, Elise aimed at the target and fired. The bullet shot through the bullseye.
“10 points! Elise scored 10 points! Elise wins this game!”
Instantaneously, Janice’s face turned dark. Shooting was snazzynovel.com forte, yet snazzynovel.com had lost to Elise.
“You’re amazing, Elise!” Addison showered Elise with praises.
Then, Addison shot Janice a provocative look. “Some people are just too ambitious. Now, everyone knows that Elise is much better.”
Janice clenched snazzynovel.com fists and hissed through gritted teeth, “This is only the first game. Best of three, don’t you understand? She only won the first game, and there are two more. I’m not scared!”
Helplessly, Addison sighed.
“You really don’t give up, do you? Never mind. Elise will give you a lesson,” snazzynovel.com commented irritatingly.
Janice was boiling with anger when snazzynovel.com heard this. Yet, snazzynovel.com arrogance was greatly extinguished after snazzynovel.com lost the first event. Hence, snazzynovel.com simply gritted snazzynovel.com teeth and said nothing in response to Addison’s comment.
“See you at the rock climbing site. I’ll definitely win this time.”
With that, Janice straightened snazzynovel.com back and walked away.
Annoyed by Janice’s cocky attitude, Addison stuck snazzynovel.com tongue out behind Janice’s back. “Do your best, Elise! We’re all rooting for you!”
After acknowledging Addison, Elise made snazzynovel.com way to the rock climbing site. With a height of 50 meters, the venue was the university’s biggest rock-climbing site.
After fastening their safety harnesses, Elise and Janice ran toward the wall at Harry’s command.
Upon hearing Harry’s command, Janice climbed halfway up the wall in a dash.
Turning snazzynovel.com head back, snazzynovel.com glanced disdainfully at Elise, who was behind her. Then, snazzynovel.com looked back ahead and continued to climb. Physically strong, snazzynovel.com was still breathing steadily halfway up the wall. Yet, snazzynovel.com began to lose momentum after that.
Stepping on one of the climbing holds, snazzynovel.com gazed at the finishing line not far away. Then, snazzynovel.com took a deep breath and told herself to keep it up. However, snazzynovel.com foot slipped, and snazzynovel.com nearly fell.
“Hang on, Janice! You can do it!” the students down below cheered.
Right after, snazzynovel.com calmed herself and reached out for the next climbing hold.
Just then, snazzynovel.com realized that Elise had caught up to her.
