Everyone was dying to know who snagged first place, especially since it wasn't the Medical Association this time. Mr. Atticus's smile slowly disappeared, his face growing dark.
Wait, they didn't get first? Then who did?
Instinctively, he glanced over at Flora, but quickly brushed off the thought. No way. Flora was just fooling around, with zero formal training—there's no chance she scored high.
"The Medical Association didn't clinch first this time? So, which team did?" Debra's curiosity got the better of her, and she couldn't help but ask.
The Medical Association had been the champions for the past two rounds, always securing first place. Naturally, everyone thought they'd continue their winning streak.
"Maybe it's us," Selene said, her lips curling into a smirk as she looked at Flora. With Flora on their team, first place seemed like a sure bet.
"Us? Getting first? Ha! That might be possible if Flora wasn't dragging us down," Debra snapped, glaring at Flora. It was all her fault!
The others shared the same sentiment, their faces showing clear displeasure. They deeply resented Flora, thinking she'd ruined all their hard work.
But Flora seemed totally unfazed by their comments. She leaned back in her chair, one leg casually bent, looking completely nonchalant.
Selene didn't bother arguing. Talking to this bunch was pointless; the results would speak for themselves soon enough.
The scoreboard on the massive screen kept updating, now showing Team USA's scores.
Team USA was also a powerhouse, just behind the Medical Association, and had almost beaten them in the last competition.
Everyone's interest was piqued, eyes glued to the screen.
Team USA's players were so tense they held their breath, eyes fixed on the flickering scoreboard.
Marry, 89, 3rd place.
Dream, 85, 6th place.
Yahoo, 80, 11th place.
"Mr. Atticus, it's okay. We'll definitely win the second round," Orla whispered, trying to comfort him. She paused and then murmured, "I wonder how the Austenberg team's scores turned out..."
Mr. Atticus's mood lifted a bit. Flora's score would probably be laughably low. He found some consolation in that thought.
Scores and rankings for dozens of other teams were announced, and Mr. Tanner was sweating bullets.
Joy, Debra, and the others were also on edge, eager yet terrified to see the results.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the scoreboard showed the name "Austenberg" in bold letters!
Mr. Tanner's heart jumped to his throat, everyone's hearts racing. Even Selene couldn't help but look up, her clenched fists betraying her anxiety.
The names were revealed one by one, with Joy's name at the very top.
Joy, 91 points, ranking: first place!
