Chapter 102: Each Team’s Calculations!

Even though the organizing committee had postponed the individual Player Kill competition, each school was busier than ever, especially the weaker schools with no sponsors. Not only were they busy, but they were also more anxious.

The team Player Kill competition would occur after the individual Player Kill competition, so there were at least three to five days left. However, the organizing committee had adjusted the schedules, and the individual Player Kill semi-final and finals would resume after the team Player Kill competition, catching several schools by surprise.

Although there was more time for them to prepare for the individual Player Kill competition, there were only two days before the team Player Kill competition. Everyone felt the pressure.

Meanwhile, cigarette smoke filled the air in Number Two High’s director’s office. The prominent leaders of Number Two High’s alliance gathered, and everyone had different expressions as they whispered in groups of twos and threes.

“I’ve gathered everyone here for a single purpose: obtain more points to claim the Future Star award! That way, we can ensure that we get more resources from the National Professional Alliance,” Taylor spoke expressionlessly with determination in his eyes while tapping on the table with his fingers rhythmically.

The atmosphere in the office was quiet for a moment before it warmed up again.

Number Four High’s director raised his hand with incomparable solemnity and took the initiative to speak, “Let me make a statement, Brother Taylor. Number Four High will cooperate fully!”

Then Number Five High’s director patted his chest and said confidently, “My school will defend Area A1 and A2 with our lives to ensure a spot in the top four, Brother Taylor!”

Number Seven and Eight High’s directors also expressed their opinions. They would get points and cooperate wherever they could. In short, everyone present agreed to ensure the overall interests of Number Two High’s alliance.

Number Ten High’s director did not say a word. He could not help but roll his eyes with a solemn expression.

Taylor finally relaxed after hearing his brethren’s opinions. However, he saw Number Ten High’s unsightly expression. Taylor could guess what he thought, so he said gently, “Don’t hold it in, Sixth Brother. Just tell us what you’re worried about since I know you’re the one who’s under the most pressure.”

Number Seven High’s director furrowed his eyebrows as he said with a troubled expression, “Brother Taylor, I’m still unsure if my team can win against Team Moss in the first round.”

“I know what you mean. Moss has been in the limelight recently, and the other participants from his team had also performed well in the individual Player Kill competition. They are indeed a danger to us,” Taylor said calmly.

However, his face became serious again. Taylor’s eyes shone as he said in a high-pitched voice, “Indeed, Moss is a formidable opponent, but don’t worry. We will help you with all our might. You can use my school’s resources as you wish. Just do what you need, and it’ll be over soon.”

Number Seven High’s director nodded his head vigorously. However, he still felt it was a troublesome matter. Moreover, he was nervous because he knew how important the first match was. Number Two High’s alliance’s plan to enter the quarterfinals ahead of time would fail if he could not beat Team Moss, and the uncertainty of the team Player Kill competition would increase significantly.

Late at night, in a private clubhouse outside the school, the prominent leaders of Number Eleven and Twelve High sat on both sides of a coffee table. Everyone’s faces were unusually solemn.

The organizing committee had suddenly changed the competition’s schedule, making them flustered. They gathered to discuss their next step in the annual school professional competition.

As Number Eleven High’s director had yet to express his stance on the situation even after drinking two pots of tea, Number Twelve High’s director frowned and asked anxiously, “I say, what on Earth are you thinking, Snow? Please give us a straightforward answer.”

“I think we should analyze the situation properly before making any decisions, Meeks. It would be troublesome to change our plans once we’ve decided.” Snow, Number Eleven High’s director, replied with a troubled expression as he pointed at the data on the coffee table.

“We’ve looked at the data countless times. We are more than capable of handling the situation. We must make it to the top sixteen to get points in the team Player Kill competition. But considering the current signings, we can only get two measly points in the top sixteen!”

“There are two significant obstacles if we want to enter the top eight, Number Two and Three High. We are hopeless against them. Although the organizing committee had yet to announce the team Mystic Realm competition results, one could guess the results from the individual Player Kill competition,” Meeks was expressionless as he spoke.

The room instantly fell into silence upon hearing Meeks’s words. For a moment, the atmosphere was unusually depressing.

After a while, Snow rolled his eyes, and a smile flashed across his face. Then he said tentatively, “White Deer High’s performance is excellent this year. Moreover, they had a good relationship with us in the past. Can we consider joining forces with them?”

“White Deer High has a good relationship with us, but this is an era where resources matter most! Number Two and Three High have accumulated many high-quality resources over the past few years. Moreover, they have begun using their alliance’s power to pave the way for their participants in the individual Player Kill competition. The team Player Kill competition will only get more intense!”

“White Deer High will find it challenging to hold their own no matter how strong they are. Also, since they are not part of an alliance, they are no match for Number Two and Three High.” Meeks analyzed both sides of the coin with a weighted expression.

Snow picked up his teacup to take a sip. After some thought, he said, “Which side do you prefer, Meeks? Number Two High’s alliance and Number Three High’s alliance?”

“Number Two High’s alliance, of course!” Meeks said matter-of-factly. After that, he locked his gaze on Snow. It was evident he wanted to know what Snow was thinking.

“Number Two High’s alliance has grown exponentially. Six schools are supporting them, so they might not value us. However, only three schools support Number Three High’s alliance, and it’s more likely for them to accept us.”

“You have a point. Still, can Number Three High’s alliance beat Number Two High’s alliance? If not, we won’t have any resources to share, and there is no point in joining,” Meeks spoke righteously, but it was apparent he was more excited than before.

At that moment, Snow knew Meeks had already decided to join Number Two High’s alliance. Since the two had differing opinions, there was no need for them to speak any longer.

Snow picked up his teacup and took a sip. Then he said smilingly, “I think it’s getting late, Meeks. Why don’t we call it a day and go home to sleep on it?”

“Take your time. Farewell!” Meeks snarled and turned to leave.
