When they lost in the first round, there was a huge uproar on the field. When people saw that they lost in the second round, the uproar was a little smaller, of course, only a little.
Everyone was shocked that Randy's team, who had lost in the preliminaries last year, would be able to make it into the National Championship this year as the third place.
Randy could not believe that he had really made it.
Best two out of three. The outcome had been decided. When they got off the stage, Wink and Urchin hugged and cried. Lord Top sat on her seat and exhaled. Her fingers were trembling slightly due to excessive use.
"We win." There came Captain Randy's voice. Lord Top turned around and saw Randy standing behind her. She also stood up and smiled at him. "Yes, we win."
The team members all rushed up and hugged Wink and Urchin. Due to her status as Lord Top, they wanted but didn't dare to hug her. A few who were brave enough hugged Captain Randy and ran away right after that so that they wouldn't be beaten up.
"A hug?" Randy spread his arms and asked Lord Top.
Her fingers were still shaking. She only thought for a moment before reaching out to wrap her arms around him.
It was a very light hug. Just as she was about to go, she was held tightly in his arms.
Randy hugged her tightly. He was silent. There was no need to say anything.
She made it to the National Championship.
He held her in his arms and felt how thin and tiny her body was. However, there was such a strong faith in this body. It was the strong faith that led them to the National Championship that they had never imagined before.
The audience was seething. In the midst of the controversy, only a few were screaming and cheering. The teams that had spoken sarcastically of Randy were all sitting in the audience with expressions of disbelief. They were full of confidence at the beginning and thought that Randy would run away from the back door in three days. Who would have thought that he would lead his team of fewer than ten people to fight until now and even take the third place?
After all, the Dragon Team was a national team. They were trained in official bases and some of them were even packaged as star players. As for Randy's team, they were on their behalf. After this match, Randy's team overshadowed Team S.
Carl and his team members took the trophy for the third place in the preliminaries. When they took photos, Carl smiled proudly. Randy was standing next to him, and Lord Top was standing next to Randy. Lord Top, who usually did not smile, wore a happy smile towards the camera.
In the video, Randy showed the trophy and photos. They all sent their blessings. Ferne even winked and asked, "I think you will hold a wedding after the National Championship, right?"
They were about to break up after the National Championship.
Randy did not say anything. He still had more important things to ask. "What's wrong with Vincent? Why didn't he come to us?"
After Ferne and the others had known that Vincent was still alive, they did not tell Randy in order not to affect him in the competition. They told him the news today. As a result, Randy was so excited that he wanted to buy a ticket to come. He had been immersed in the joy that Vincent was still alive and did not see the strange expressions on Ferne and the others.
"He doesn't remember us. His current identity is Mr. Baron of the Emerald Island," Ferne explained concisely.
"Are you kidding me?" Randy was full of disbelief. When he saw the silent faces in the video, he was almost convinced. "Damn, is this...true?"
Only then did Jaquan describe everything that they had seen since coming here. In the end, he also told them about the idea of bringing Vincent back for treatment. Of course, they had an even chance of doing it and the chance stood on the premise that he was knocked out and taken away smoothly.
They joked around for more than half an hour. The battery ran low, so they took out a few chargers from Kamron's suitcase and put them on the side for backup.
They had nothing to do, so they started to play games. It was the words string up puzzle that they used to play in the Forest Hot Spring. However, there was no hot spring here, so they turned off the lights. The loser did not drink and could only take off his clothes.
When Ferne was naked, Janessa said that she had played enough and was ready to go back to sleep. Randy also went offline.
They stood up. When Janessa opened the door and was about to leave, dim candlelight leaked in. She immediately turned her head and put her hands on her forehead to make a looking posture. Unexpectedly, the moment she opened the door, Noah threw clothes on Ferne and stood in front of him.
Janessa had a regretful look on her face as she tilted her head and asked Emma, "Did you see that?"
"..."
Jaquan took Emma's hand and ran.
Armando thought for a moment and also took Janessa and quickly left.
Noah closed the door. A moment later, he walked to the table and lit up the candle. When he was about to put away the mat where they had just played the game, he accidentally glanced at Ferne's half-naked body with the corner of his eye. He narrowed his eyes unconsciously.
Ferne was just about to put on his pants when he saw the glance. "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen long legs?" he asked.
Noah looked at him with a subtle gaze, and only after a moment did he say, "You are wearing my underwear."
