Class Eleven's dark horse

The next women's sport is badminton this afternoon.

Class One has two participants for the single, who are Xia Mingzhou and Lai Li.

Jiang Yue will play in the single badminton match, taking up her classmate's spot, which their classmate enthusiastically gave to her after knowing of the bet between the two classes.

The entire school was now aware of the situation also because someone had posted it in the school's forum.

[Which class do you all think will win?]

[In the school competition bet or exam score bet?]

[Regarding the school competition, of course, we all know already who'll get the highest score.]

[Definitely Class One though!]

[Class One! They have Xia Mingzhou in badminton, so they will certainly win. Not to mention they also included the Rule in Rivalry Tournament in the bet and Cheng Jiayi is in Class One.]

[I've heard Cheng Jiayi is being recruited as a new player for her cousin's e-sports team.]

{Gosh, really? Then isn't Class One using a sledgehammer to crack a nut?]

[Have you all forgotten that the majority of students in Class Eleven spend their entire day playing video games? Who knows, they might win that one.]

[I believe in Class Eleven, sports had always been their forte!]

[Student from above, it's only the male sports that are their forte, their female sports participant's abilities are... questionable.]

[Some of you weren't in the Track and Field a while ago so you all didn't know what happened. I can only summarize it in 5 words, 'Jiang Yue trashed the sprint'! It was hilarious!]

[I agree, it was funny as hell! If her photo was only taken during the sprint, Class One's Participant could become a meme because her expression is so amusing hahaha...]

[I was there as well and I'm beginning to believe Jiang Yue is their dark horse.]

Various discussions were taking place, and the majority of the students thought Class Eleven is bound to lose.

Class Eleven who are cursed to lose are anxious about the game, except for Jiang Yue's circle of friends.

The five of them were happily playing Rule in Rivalry as a 5-member team.

"Big Brother that was so cool of you!" Wan Zhu screamed as the announcement on the game interface say, 'Your team has slayed the Hound Beast'.

They thought the other team would get it but Jiang Yue was able to steal it and leave the place without his health getting reduced!

"Jiang Xiu's timing with the heal was also on-point."

Jiang Xiu said a small 'thank you' to Gao Tian's compliment.

She's starting to love playing this kind of game, and she can see why some students become addicted to it.

It's because the game is really fun to play!

Not to mention her heroes have beautiful effects and outfits, and she can even customize them!

"At this point, we can win the tournament!"

With what Wan Zhu remarked, Kang Jinhai just raised his brow.

He was well aware that Jiang Yue had never lost a game.

This reality slapped him when the two of them used to play at internet cafés in the middle of the night before.

So there's no need to be concerned about losing, instead, they should be concerned about the sports competition.

He has trust in his Brother's skills with the e-sports tournament but is quite doubtful about female's sports. That's because Kang Jinhai hadn't seen Jiang Yue participate in any sports before other than beating people up.

"Brother Yue, Badminton is about to start!" One of their classmates went up to them and reminded them.

And so the five of them went to the gymnasium once again.

It started with a draw to pair up two students to play against each other.

Jiang Yue was paired with a 2nd year student, and she won the game flawlessly.

The opponent failed to win even one rally.

Jiang Yue's display of strength made Class One nervous.

"Do you think they'll win this?"

"I think Jiang Yue is good at sports."

"Oh, come on, she was paired with someone who isn't very good at badminton. If Xia Mingzhou had been paired with that participant instead, she would have received 21 points as well." Xia Mingzhou's friend refuted their classmates' claims.

"Yeah, I think so too."

After two more games, Jiang Yue's opponent was eventually Lai Li, who had also been waiting for this to happen.

San Fang may be defeated by her in the sprint because it is all about running, and Lai Li believes that techniques are unneeded in a sprint, but badminton is different.

To train one's reflexes and coordination, one must play hundreds of games.

And she'd played enough games to hone her body's speed and coordination.

She believes she or Xia Mingzhou can win this one.

"Don't worry, I'll go easy on you," Lai Li remarked with a mocking smile on her face, which Jiang Yue scoffed at.

With the toss coin, Lai Li got to serve first, which will give her the chance to control the flow of the game, and she fully well knows how to do it.

Lai Li always aimed the shuttlecock at the corner of the court after Jiang Yue knocked her serve back, forcing Jiang Yue to run from one end to the other.

If this goes on, the player would surely be exhausted, however, it was Jiang Yue she was playing with. After just running from side to side two times, she was able to turn the game around. She targeted the shuttle cock to the court's far corner, giving Lai Li a taste of her own medicine. And, unlike Jiang Yue, she was unable to regain control of the game, allowing Jiang Yue to earn the first point.

The subsequent rallies weren't any different from the first one.

Jiang Yue dominated the game from start to finish, scoring all of the available points without breaking a sweat. Lai Li, on the other hand, felt like a fish that had just returned to the water after gasping excessively.

Just like San Fang, she was also played by Jiang Yue!

It seemed like the most humiliating experience she'd ever had!

Many students came to watch the game after learning about the bet between the two classes, and they began to believe that Class Eleven might have a chance to win all of the women's sports!

Jiang Yue might be Class Eleven's dark horse.
