The audience was in an uproar when Moss stood on the podium with the Future Star trophy in one hand and the Knight’s Spirit award in the other.
The students in White Deer High’s viewing area were the most excited as they beat their war drums with all their might. They transmitted the joy in their hearts through the rhythm of their war drums.
Meanwhile, Miss Aisha, who was in White Deer High’s viewing area, cried tears of joy.
“M-Moss…” Miss Aisha kept mumbling Moss’s name as countless waves of happiness arose in her heart. “Y-You did us all proud, Moss.”
As Moss’s teacher, Miss Aisha could finally express the many words she stored in her heart to praise her beloved student’s excellence. She was truly happy for Moss and proud of having such an outstanding student.
The nervousness, anxiety, and worry Miss Aisha felt during the competition finally disappeared. At that moment, pride and joy filled her heart. Her student’s who the crowd overlooked, proved their strength by winning one match after another.
In the end, Miss Aisha’s students won the Future Star award with three undisputed victories. They also won the audience’s recognition and respect.
Miss Aisha felt fortunate to have met a student like Moss, especially since she was a young teacher who had just graduated. She reflected upon herself at that moment.
Miss Aisha knew she needed to trust her students. All she needed to do now was constantly strengthen her students’ confidence, establish the belief they had a bright future, and encourage them to be themselves.
With that, Miss Aisha’s heart brightened up suddenly, and she was excited about the future.
Meanwhile, Elroy felt myriad emotions as he watched Moss lift the Future Star trophy.
Taylor was gloomy, and his tone was solemn as he spoke with the other directors of Number Two High’s alliance, “We still underestimated that old man from White Deer High.”
Several directors lowered their heads, not daring to look at Taylor or talk to him. They didn’t know how they lost. They were in the most advantageous position to win the competition but failed.
The directors of Number Two High’s alliance were even more dumbfounded about the knight. It was like the soul of the greatest knight who ever lived reincarnated into Moss.
“Continue investigating Moss! He will be our priority from now on! Moss will be a formidable obstruction to our alliance’s progress! We have to keep track of his movements at all times. Do you understand?!”
Bang!
Taylor slammed his palm on the table and glared toward the podium.
The other directors of Number Two High’s alliance were shocked and immediately responded, “Y-Yes, Brother Taylor! U-Understood!”
…
Meanwhile, the expression of Number Three High’s director, Colson, was not much better. Although the Super Whirlwinds got disqualified from the team Player Kill competition, his Youth Forces and Crimson Fires tied for second place.
They had achieved a historic breakthrough, but in the end, they still weren’t destined to win the Future Star award.
Initially, it was just a situation where Number Three High competed with Number Two High. However, a formidable competitor had appeared, making Colson more anxious.
“It looks like we still have to plan our next step more carefully!”
Hal and Snow nodded silently, their face unwilling. They never expected a remarkable knight like Moss to appear. They felt like all of their efforts went to waste.
“Can we poach Moss over to our side, Brother Colson?” Maddox said in a low voice as his mouth twitched.
“We can try, but let’s not be too hopeful. That old man from White Deer High would never let Moss go. However, I won’t deny that idea so readily.”
“I’ll leave that to you, Maddox. You have to watch Moss’s movements from now on. You must persuade him at all costs if there’s a suitable opportunity.”
“Let’s not say too much here. We’ll find a time to sit and discuss the rest tomorrow and the day after.” Colson looked at Moss, hoisting the trophy with a conflicted expression.
“Okay, Brother Colson. I’ll make the arrangements right away.” Maddox immediately agreed and then fell into profound thought.
…
Elroy ran to White Deer High’s viewing area during the award ceremony. He also wanted to enjoy that exciting moment with his colleagues and students.
“Na’er!”
Na’er quickly wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes when she heard Elroy calling. Then she turned around and left in search of Elroy’s voice.
“Director Elroy, you’re here!” Na’er was surprised to see Elroy come to the audience stands.
“I saw how excited you all were, so I came to join you all. Also, I need you to send a notice in a while. We’ll hold the summary meeting in the Grand Hall of a Thousand People tomorrow at 10:00 am.”
“Afterward, inform the school’s mid-level teachers and higher-ups to hold a meeting at 8:00 pm to discuss a reward for the participants of the annual school professional competition.”
“Yes, Director Elroy!” Na’er stood up straight and answered respectfully.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
White Deer High’s drummers beat the drums again as the cheerleaders cheered. Their voices were high and loud, and their momentum was like a rainbow. They conveyed their blessings and joy to Moss.
Elroy looked at the excited and joyful teachers and students of White Deer High delightfully.
…
People worldwide witnessed White Deer High’s excellent performance in the annual school professional competition and fell into heated discussions.
People surrounded a newsstand in Black Dragon City, while a middle-aged man holding a newspaper asked in surprise when he saw the news about White Deer High’s performance in the competition, “I heard the knight’s team entered the finals in the competition. Is that true?”
“Yeah, it’s been years since a knight team participated in the annual school professional competition!”
“I don’t think so. The media might be making it up to create hype and attract people’s attention!”
“No, this is true. I asked my friend in White Deer City, and he said he went to the stadium to watch a semi-finalist named Moss.”
“D*mn! Are the declining knights making a comeback?!”
“It seems that we, the people of the lower class, are not without hope!”
…
White Deer High’s performance also caused a tremendous response among the many schools surrounding Black Dragon City.
Meanwhile, a white-haired older gentleman wearing a Tang suit in Black Dragon City’s Number Five High’s director’s office watched the award ceremony. He said leisurely, “When did White Deer High obtain such talent?”
“It seems we must adjust our talent search strategy in the future. Do you understand?” The older gentleman pointed at the screen and said to a man in black next to him.
Then the director rolled his eyes and said coldly, “Investigate that Moss boy thoroughly. I want to see his detailed information and the talent discovery plan on my desk tomorrow.”
The man in black respectfully bowed and nodded. “Yes, director. I’ll do it right away. I’ll hand those over to you first thing tomorrow!”
