Chapter 89: A landslide victory
When they were outside the Combat Arena, in the hallways, Professors Ren and Alan approached them to congratulate them.
"It seems we worried too much. Congratulations on your first victory," they said, greeting them and welcoming them with water.
"Despite the mistakes, you won without losing a man and were able to restrain yourselves enough to avoid killing anyone. That’s a good sign that you’re controlling your powers quite well," said Steward, coming up from behind.
"Jenna and Elliot, I offer my congratulations, especially to you, Jenna. Despite being the youngest, your performance was incredible. I would dare to say with certainty that you will be the MVP of the day," he said.
Jenna smiled with slight embarrassment. "Mr. Steward, I just did what I could. If the team weren’t so good, it wouldn’t have been worth anything, so it’s an honor for all of us."
"Haha. Well, those who don’t get carried away by victory are the ones who go the furthest in competitions." Steward then looked at the rest of the team.
"Good game. I hope you continue to show that guts to go all out. Although we need to refine our strategies, what I saw today was great."
Andrew remained silent after nodding, still analyzing the battle he had just fought, trying to understand how he could improve.
"Hahaha, thank you, Mr. Steward. Next time will be better, and I won’t let these guys outshine me." Rich exclaimed, cheerful as always, even though he was sore.
Meanwhile, Chris hung his head.
"Is something wrong?" Steward asked, causing Chris to sigh.
