Chapter 181: Still Number One!
Flying Wolf paused and nodded in satisfaction when he looked at the students below discussing fervently below the stage. He pointed toward the big screen and asked smilingly, “What would you all do if a team encounters such a situation and asks for your help during the final mission?”
The assembly hall instantly became quiet because it was a difficult question. The situation was unfavorable for Team 016 and would worsen if anyone agreed to help them. It would have disrupted other teams’ plans and significantly impacted their scores in the final mission. There were even life-threatening dangers during that mission.
Flying Wolf revealed a severe expression when he noticed the students below were in a dilemma. “I know it will be difficult no matter who encounters such a situation. But!”
Flying Wolf changed the topic and looked at Moss. “When Team 016’s captain asked for B-666’s help, B-666 accepted them with open arms. Still, the Guardians did not panic when they heard of Team 016’s crisis. Instead, they appeared exceptionally calm and collected under B-666’s command.”
…
The students below were shocked and amazed when they witnessed the Guardians’ heroic performance and Moss’s outstanding leadership. The students could not believe their ears when they heard Flying Wolf’s heartfelt words.
Everyone responded with thunderous applause and heartfelt praises when the screen showed Moss and Team 016 leading many Magical Beasts into their encirclement while valiantly surrounding them in a pool of water Baylon had created to seal the beasts.
“That was amazing!”
“What a brilliant battle!”
“B-666’s plan was astounding!”
Even Arthur and Duke repeatedly nodded in admiration when they saw how well the Guardians and Team 016 worked together.
Then the screen showed the Guardians and Team 016 smashing the final Stubborn Donkey Mouse ice sculpture unto pieces, causing the students watching to clap. The students also cheered and let out hearty waves of laughter.
At that time, Flying Wolf knew he did not need to explain further because the students finally understood why Moss had obtained full points in his final mission.
......
Although the students understood that, they still could not comprehend why Moss obtained full points for the entirety of the final phase because he had given up on the ambush mission.
A hint of relief flashed across Red Spider’s face when she noticed the students’ doubtful expressions. She said in a gentle tone, “I shall explain this matter.”
Moss’s results appeared on the screen. There was a big 0 on Moss’s report card and an eye-catching +20 beside the words “Loyal to chivalry,” which shocked everyone. The students were puzzled beyond belief.
Red Spider had expected the students’ reactions and continued, “I think everyone knows how important it is to stay true to your paths. You must possess principles, spirit, and faith.”
Red Spider’s heart raced as she said those words. She felt as though she had returned to her glory days. She looked at Moss, who was calm and composed as he stood among the crowd. She recalled thinking Moss was beyond his time and continued, “When B-666 encountered a mission that contradicted his chivalry, he spoke his mind and resolutely gave up out of principle.
“He knew it would affect his results and other series of events. However, none of you ever questioned this matter. Although B-666 scored zero points during his ambush mission, the supervisors still decided to reward him with 20 points due to his principles, professionalism, and chivalry.
“The rest of you have a long way to go. You will undoubtedly encounter many challenges and temptations in the future, but you will only go further and soar higher if you adhere to your paths.”
The students listened to Red Spider’s sincere words, even though some still had some gripes about Moss’s scores.
However, the doubtful students considered Moss’s formidable strength and thought he would have completed his ambush mission like it was nothing. They felt it was only a matter of time before Moss claimed first place.
It was just that Moss disdained to go against his principles, even though he would lose his chance to claim first place.
Besides the doubtful students, most of them immediately went up to Moss to congratulate him after hearing the instructors’ explanations.
“Congratulations, Moss!”
“Congratulations, B-666. You deserve first place!”
Amidst the waves of congratulations, Moss’s teammates suddenly tossed him in the air as a form of celebration. He wanted to spend the remainder of his time in the elite training camp in a low profile, but it seemed the Guardians did not allow it.
…
After looking at the results, the students prepared to enjoy themselves to the fullest during their last moments in the elite training program. Then Kevin’s bell-like voice sounded, “There are two more things I would like to convey to you on behalf of the elite training program.”
“Firstly, we will hold a ceremony tomorrow at 9:00 am, and all students must attend. You can also invite your parents, teachers, and friends to witness your glorious moment together. Please be on time!
“Secondly, to celebrate the 201st elite training program’s successful conclusion, the organizing committee has prepared a sumptuous meal for everyone. You can all eat as much as you want without using meal tickets!”
The students were ecstatic after hearing the two pieces of news. However, the students who bet to win extra meal tickets felt embarrassed when they heard the second piece of news.
…
Moss did not go to the cafeteria, even though he also liked the food in the training camp. Instead, he was looking at the training grounds thinking about something.
Suddenly, the system sounded in his mind, “Congratulations, you have unlocked an intermediate-level achievement. Holy Belief value increased by 15! Current Holy Belief value: 105/100.”
“Congratulations, you have reached level 25. You have met all the requirements to evolve into a Great Holy Knight. Do you wish to evolve now?”
