Chapter 268 I Definitely Won’t Lose,Coolest Girl in Town
Everybody stared at Elise while Addison cheered, “Break a leg!” In response, Elise pursed her lips before replying, “I will.” As soon as Elise accepted the challenge, Janice already knew that she would win. With years of training experience, beating Elise was a piece of cake. Hence, Janice suggested, “What’s the point of just competing? Let’s place a bet to make it more exciting.” “What kind of bet?” Elise asked calmly. Looking at Elise, Janice finally said, “How about you take off your mask in front of everyone if you lose?” When Addison heard this, she was furious.
“You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?” Ignoring Addison, Janice challenged Elise. “So? Are you up for it?” Then, the corner of Elise’s mouth tugged upward. “What if you lose?” Immediately, Janice answered, “Do you think I’d lose?” The idea of her losing never popped into her mind. “Tsk tsk… You should look at the situation you’re in before making big statements as such. Stop acting like you’re invincible. It’s annoying,” Addison criticized with disdain. With a cold snort, Janice stated, “I’ll do anything you want if I lose.” Quickly, Elise uttered, “I won’t ask for anything else. I just want you to apologize in front of everyone. Can you do that?” “Sure. So, what are we competing in?”
Janice replied indifferently. Hearing this, Elise responded, “You choose! I don’t want you to think that I’m bullying you.” Janice was offended. “You really don’t know your place, do you? I’ve been through so much training since I was three, so every event is my strong suit. Do you think I’d worry if you’re bullying me? You can choose! I don’t want you refusing to accept defeat.” With that, Elise nodded her head and looked around before saying, “Let’s compete in three events. The first to win two games is the winner.” “Sure.” Then, Elise pointed to the side. “Shooting, rock climbing, and a 100-meter obstacle course. Are you okay with that?” “No problem.” After reaching a consensus, everyone sensed war between the two.
Noticing that the situation was about to go out of control, Harry stood up. “I’ll be the judge. I promise to be fair and just.” “Sure.” “Okay!” Elise and Janice replied at the same time. “Alright. Now, let’s move to the shooting range and prepare.” All the students cheered because they wouldn’t have to train anymore as they would be watching Elise and Janice compete. With an excited look on their faces, they hurried to the shooting range. “The competition rules are simple. 10-meter shooting range and three chances. Whoever scores the highest wins.”
As soon as Harry finished, he prepared two handguns for Elise and Janice. Right after, the two ladies positioned themselves and started aiming at the target board with their guns. “There’s no turning back now. A bet’s a bet.” After saying this, Janice took her aim quickly. Then, there was a loud bang as she took her shot. Soon after, the target inspector announced loudly, “9 points!” As for Elise, she aimed at the bullseye and pulled the trigger. “Elise, 9 points!” Upon hearing this, everyone cheered. “Good luck, Elise!” Addison shouted with the rest of the crowd. Meanwhile, there were also many people rooting for Janice. “All the best, Janice!” Janice smirked and continued with her second shot. “9.5 points. 9.5 points.”
For the second shot, both of them received the same score again. With constant training, Janice was mentally tough. Yet, she started to waver upon seeing this. Holding the gun, she prepared to fire her third shot. Then, the inspector shouted excitedly, “10 points! 10 points for Janice!” As soon as he said so, Janice smiled smugly and glanced at Elise provokingly. “Fire your last shot well. Be careful not to miss because you’ll lose if you do.” Unfazed, Elise took her aim. A loud bang sounded before the inspector shouted, “10 points! 10 points as well!” Then, there was a loud roar of applause. “Well done, Elise!” Janice’s face turned grim as soon as she heard this. She thought that she would win, but they ended up with a tie after three rounds.
