"What was that?" Kai asked when Marcus hadn't passed at the last second.
Marcus didn't respond and merely walked away.
He went to the bench and dropped his towel. Despite its light material, it made a relatively loud noise, startling their teammates.
Kai, still on the court, shook his head and exhaled sharply. The rest of the team exchanged worried glances as Coach Xu Wei folded his arms, visibly tense.
Just then, Marcus stood and started walking away from their bench.
"Marcus, where are you going?" Caleb asked. However, Marcus didn't respond. Jaw-Long held onto his arm, but Marcus forcefully shook his hold off and continued walking away.
"This isn't good," Dong muttered, watching Marcus disappear down the tunnel.
Coach Xu Wei ran a hand through his hair. "Maybe this was a mistake…Putting so many strong personalities on the court together."
"Or maybe the entire competition was a mistake," Max said out of his frustration.
