On the chief instructor’s platform, Mason sat with his legs crossed as he seemed to be lost in thought with downcast eyes.
Snickering, the chief instructor turned to the man. “It’s clear who the winner is!”
He knew he wouldn’t be wrong about this person. The winner of the shooting category had to be Hannah.
Mason pursed his lips and muttered with an unfathomable look in his eyes, “Don’t forget that there are two more rounds left!”
“Of course I remember that!” Hannah already won the first round, so there’s no doubt about the outcome of the following rounds. The chief instructor thought to himself. Besides, Janet hitting the 7th ring must have just been a lucky shot!
Of course, he did not say that out loud!
For the following round, Hannah was once again the first one on the field.
After achieving the results of the first round, she came on stage with confidence overflowing from both her movements and her eyes.
After a loud boom, the number appeared on the big screen in an instant.
Without delay, the judge made the announcement. “Hannah Meyer from medical school has hit the 9th ring for the second round!”
At once, a chorus of chatter erupted.
“Holy sh*t, Hannah actually hit the 9th ring on her second shot?”
“Her standard is almost as high as our instructor’s!”
“Tsk, tsk. Hannah is truly deserving of being Charles Meyer’s daughter. She’s just as impressive as he is!”
“She truly is the daughter of a general! She hit the 8th ring and 9th ring on her first and second shot. It’s clear who the champion is!”
At the same time, the other participants directed envious and admiring glances at Hannah, who pursed her lips and smiled as she pranced to her seat while the rest of the participants went on stage.
Just then, White Python shuffled toward Janet and reminded her, “Miss Jackson, the way you held the gun wasn’t right. You should learn from Miss Meyer.”
Upon hearing this, Janet’s eyes lifted as she gazed at him before nodding with a faint smile. “Alright!”
Upon seeing her seemingly unconcerned attitude, he pursed his lips and said nothing more.
After seeing Hannah’s impressive performance, the remaining five students believed that she would be the winner, so they simply gave up and shot without even aiming. They were no longer bothered to win the competition.
As such, Hannah was in the lead by a large margin.
With 17 rings in total after two rounds, this score was basically beyond the reach of the other five students.
Next, it was Janet’s turn.
After witnessing her first shot, everyone’s expectations for her weren’t as high as before, which was why they stopped watching and started to mind their own business.
Janet slowly got up and sauntered to the stage.
Out of nowhere, she stopped in her tracks when she was walking past Black Python and beckoned to him. Puzzled, he then leaned over to listen to her.
During the conversation, a perplexed look surfaced on his face before he called White Python over to have a discussion.
However, the both of them didn’t seem to have come to an agreement as they eventually asked the judges and the chief instructor for their opinions.
As he listened to the judge’s voice through the intercom, the chief instructor was silent for a long moment before nodding and sternly responded, “Granted!”
Upon hearing this, Mason turned to look at him and raised his eyebrow, but did not ask what it was about.
Meanwhile, the audience below the stage were watching the instructors and judges in confusion as the latter all huddled around for a discussion.
“What’s going on?”
“What exactly did Janet say to Instructor Black Python?”
“Don’t tell me she’s withdrawing from the competition!”
“It looks like it. Is she getting cold feet?”
“D*mn, how cowardly of her to back out now!”
“She probably thinks she can’t beat Hannah, and that she would embarrass herself if she persisted!”
“That makes sense!”
The crowd discussed with one another, but they couldn’t come up with a reasonable explanation.
Meanwhile, at the spectator area, Abby was looking in all directions in puzzlement. “Why did Janet stop?”
