Chapter 510 - 296 Chain Reaction
Li Ang had made his escape, but what he left behind would not vanish so easily.
At the competition site, Katerina managed to advance to the quarterfinals with some luck and then encountered an opponent who had expended too much energy in the quarterfinals. After a fierce battle, she surprisingly made it to the finals.
Katerina was well aware that if it hadn’t been for the sudden withdrawal of the Japanese contestant, Takaoka Yuichi, she probably would have been eliminated in the quarterfinals and never had a chance to compete in the finals.
However, she still hadn’t figured out why the Japanese contestant had suddenly withdrawn. He was about to take the stage, and he had even taken the other contestants from his team with him.
The only Japanese contestant who stayed ended up facing the champion of the singles race, a contestant from China, in the semifinals. If Takaoka Yuichi had been there, perhaps he would have had a fighting chance, but this contestant, he was still a bit green.
After the singles race concluded, next was the main event, the team race, which determined eighty percent of the resource allocation.
However, many people at the scene noticed that the Japanese Team’s teammates still hadn’t come back.
This was quite an inexplicable situation. If they had been from another place and run into obstacles set by the Japanese Team or affected by some trickery, that would have been understandable.
But what kind of trouble could have befallen them, these local big shots, that would require the whole team to leave and still not return?
And the remaining contestant, along with their team leader, had also disappeared from the scene at some point, leaving not a single Japanese contestant in sight.
