351 Stay Alert!

Once Shanghai University showed its true strength, it soon put Changjiang University into a passive position.

“There’s nothing much to see in this match,” Benedict pouted indifferently and said when he saw that Changjiang could only defend itself.

Gavin put on a straight face and said lowly, “Observe the match. It isn’t over yet. Shanghai University will likely be one of the teams entering the finals.”

Then he turned to the team and said, “We mustn’t underestimate our opponents at times like these. If we have such thoughts, we will be the ones to suffer.”

“Benedict, you’re the best. Let’s see how Captain Bishop deals with you if you screw up!” said Carolyn, in a bad mood.

“You started herding sheep when Captain Bishop wasn’t here, didn’t you?!” Gerard, who rarely spoke, also spoke up. He was clearly in a nervous state.

Moss smiled as he looked at Benedict and asked indifferently, “Benedict, how long do you think Changjiang can last?”

“Five minutes, no more.” Benedict smiled confidently.

“A bet? I’ll win if they last longer than that,” Moss spoke calmly.

He had determined that Changjiang would not lose the match so quickly because he realized that although Changjiang was losing ground, they were not in a mess.

It was clear that they still had a backup plan, judging from their fighting spirit.

“It’s a bet! Do you want 10% of my GPA?” Benedict’s eyes glowed as he looked at Moss.

He had previously lost 10% of his GPA in a bet with Moss, but he still needed to pay up. This time, it was apparent he wanted to win it back.

“Sure!” Moss agreed readily.

He and Benedict’s bet was mainly to respond to Gavin and raise everyone’s vigilance. He did not expect Benedict to give him such a significant gift.

Moss was overjoyed and added, “You lost the three-minute bet the last time and haven’t transferred the 10% of your GPA to me.”

“Yeah, but that’s because I haven’t been to school recently. Don’t worry. I’m not a person who reneges on his debt,” Benedict quickly explained.

He was afraid Moss would not be at ease, so he added, ” “You don’t have to worry since everyone here is a witness.”

“Moss, you’re doing a good deed, right? Deliberately giving back the GPA you won from Benedict?” Lila, standing behind Moss, asked in confusion.

Charlie was also surprised when he heard this. “Moss, even I want to participate in this, haha!”

“10% is not a small amount. I think you should be careful.” Gavin could tell that Changjiang would not lose so quickly, and Benedict had a higher chance of winning, so he kindly reminded them.

“Good! Then let’s start the countdown now!” Moss did not seem to hear the others and gestured “OK” to Benedict.

“M-Moss…” Nat, beside Moss, wanted to say something but gave up when he saw Moss’s determined eyes.

Benedict and Moss had set the bet, and everyone focused on the match again.

Benedict still had a smug smile after some time had passed. However, his expression froze when Changjiang suddenly formed a double-circle formation.

Changjiang had four students inside and six on the outside to defend but could also launch a surprise attack if needed.

Many of Kyoto’s team members sighed when they saw this.

“Changjiang University is still putting up a fight. They’re tenacious!”

“If Shanghai University encounters the double-ring formation, they won’t be able to win so easily.”

“I can’t underestimate my enemy! Changjiang’s surprise attack almost injured Shanghai University’s co-captain!”

…

Since Changjiang had slightly stabilized their position and almost caused severe damage to one of Shanghai University’s leading participants, Gavin looked at Moss gratifiedly.

After a few minutes, Lila shouted, “Look, Shanghai University is going all out again!”

Kyoto’s team members started to discuss again when Shanghai University’s group attack broke through Changjiang’s outer ring formation.

“This is Shanghai University.’s true strength. They’re still holding it down!”

“Amazing! Besides their captain and co-captain, the other five second-year members are also commendable.”

“The Gold-tier Holy Mage among the newcomers is imposing. His attack power is average, but his amplification effect is perfect.”

…

With this wave of attack’s success, Shanghai University took advantage of the situation and continued to attack fiercely, no longer leaving any chances for Changjiang to retaliate.

Two minutes later, the Changjian’s captain noticed the hopeless situation and raised his hand to admit defeat. At that moment, Kyoto’s team members recalled the bet between Moss and Benedict.

“Let me see how many minutes it has been.” Lila quickly grabbed the clock from Benedict’s hand.

“Yep, it’s been 15 minutes!” Lila exclaimed, “Moss, you win!

“Moss, you’ve won 20% of Benedict’s GPA now.” Felix was excited, even more than when he was before.

“Fortunately, I didn’t participate in the bet.” Charlie palmed his forehead and sighed.

Nat looked at Moss admiringly and praised, “Moss, you’re amazing!”

Moss heard everyone’s words, and his expression turned serious as he said sternly, “Co-captain Gavin was right. We mustn’t underestimate our opponents, especially in these few final rounds.

“I just indulged in Benedict’s bet because I want everyone to be vigilant toward our upcoming opponents.”

“Very good. Moss is right. We must believe in our strength and, even more so, respect and value every opponent.” Sophia stood up and went to the middle of the team.

“The match just now was perfect and sounded the alarm for us. We can’t be complacent and underestimate our enemy just because we have a battle plan we think is good.”

Sophia clenched her fists and said sternly, “We must be aware that we’re still on the weak side. We must maintain our fighting attitude to win the competition.”

With that, she raised her right arm high, exclaiming, “Kyoto, you can do it!”

Her team members quickly gathered around, raising their arms and shouting, “We can do it!”

…

Moss was overjoyed that he managed to snap his team out of being complacent. He even won another 10% of Benedict’s GPA as a bonus.

…

After Sophia dismissed the team, he followed everyone out and returned to his room to rest. As soon as he entered the room, his phone rang.

“Hello, Moss, it’s Flying Wolf. I’m thrilled to see you shine in the competition.”

Moss was delighted when he heard Flying Wolf’s voice. “Thank you for your support, Deputy Instructor Flying Wolf.”

“Moss, I called you for two things. One is that Red Spider knows your captain is injured and can no longer participate. She told me to call you and tell you to believe in yourself and cooperate with your teammates. Remember, anything is possible since the competition hasn’t ended.”

Moss felt something was amiss when he heard Flying Wolf’s words. He immediately asked, “Is there something wrong with Deputy Instructor Red Spider?”

“No, nothing much. Red Spider went to the Great Wall to provide support.” Flying Wolf’s hesitant voice came from the other end of the call.

“Oh, thank goodness. Please convey my gratitude to Deputy Instructor Red Spider.” Moss knew Flying Wolf would not say anything and would not tell him even if he were to look into it, so he continued asking, “What’s the second thing?”

“The second thing is related to the Great Wall. Recently, the Magical Beasts have been extra active, and the officers and soldiers miss you very much. If you have time, come to the Great Wall to do some missions and pass on some experience to the Knights.”

“All right! I’ll find time to go over after the competition,” Moss replied firmly.

Afterward, Flying Wolf gave Moss a few more instructions before saying he had something else to do and hanging up the phone.

After putting down the phone, Moss could not help but frown. He quickly turned on his computer and searched for news related to the battle at the Great Wall.

…

His brows furrowed even more as he read on.
