Chapter 937 - 935 Numerous Rivals in Love
On the dragon boat of Changqing Academy, everyone felt they had the will but not the power, as that previous stretch had already consumed most of their energy.
They also saw that Baiyun Academy’s dragon boat had already caught up, and everyone started to feel anxious and restless.
The drummer, feeling a moment of panic, sped up the beat, causing the rowing actions to fall out of sync, disrupting the entire rhythm.
For a while, the speed slowed even more, and watching as Baiyun Academy’s boat was nearly just half a boat length behind, they became increasingly flustered.
The drummer’s beat became disordered, and the rowers couldn’t find the rhythm. If this continued, it would be no surprise for Baiyun Academy to overtake them.
In the stands, Old Granny Zhang slapped the railing anxiously, "What’s going on? Does that drummer know what he’s doing? Listening to his messed-up drumming, I’m better at pounding clothes than he is!"
Lady Qi, familiar with such competitions from her time in the Capital City, sighed knowingly, "Changqing Academy has lost its nerve, disrupted by Baiyun Academy from behind. If they don’t adjust, they will undoubtedly lose today."
The family members of Changqing Academy nearby were so worried that tears almost came out, "How could this happen?"
"It’s all because of that person who set the question! If he hadn’t fallen into the water and delayed things, it wouldn’t be like this!"
"Exactly!"
Even the hot-blooded students of Changqing Academy were so anxious, they wished they could go up and help.
It seemed that not only Baiyun Academy caught up, but other academies were also closing in.
