Chapter 104 Make Him Climb the Wall

+5 Pears
If Kevin Martin could make all ten spots belong to Class S, then no one could question his teaching ability.
With that expectation in mind, Kevin watched the eleven-to-six draw begin.
Then he watched Julian reach into the box and pull out the red ball again, calm as could be.
Kevin said, “?”
Kane said, “?”
Wesley said, “!”
Holy shit.
Fake.
It had to be fake.
They were not the only ones who thought so. Even the square-faced judge and the entire arena stared in disbelief.
Was this allowed?
Come on. Is Wesley related to someone in admin? One bye was already insane. Two? Are they kidding?”
Maybe the academy is manufacturing drama.”
Glad I’m not in this year. I’d be disgusted.”
Doubt spread fast through the stands.
The judge immediately returned every ball to the box and handed it back to Julian.
At the same time, flying cameras rushed in and surrounded Julian from every angle.
No blind spots.
Draw again,” the judge said. “If you can still draw red, I will personally approve your team’s second bye.”
The balls and the box seemed ordinary.
They were not.
They were made from special material that blocked psychic detection. Even a high-rank AO could not sense which one was red among eleven balls.
Julian did not immediately reach in.
He turned to Wesley.

Fis. Tap the wall

Kane did not lower his voice.
The microphone near the judge picked up every word and sent them across Abyss Dome Arena
Everyone knew the gap between the two sides.
Nobody expected Julian or Wesley to talk back.
Then Julian’s voice entered the mic too.
“Wait. I’m thinking.”
The judge could not help asking, “Thinking about what?”
Julian said, “I’m thinking that since we need to prove our wolf cub is a wolf, not a dog, then even if Wesley
s a lump of mud-or a pile of crap-I still have to find a way to slap him onto that wall.”
Wesley said nothing.
That year, under the apricot blossoms and misty rain, I never should have stepped out to save you.
The arena went hot instantly.
Pre-match trash talk was already rare.
Trash talk from the weaker side was even rarer.
Trash talk that insulted both enemy and teammate at the same time?
Most people had never seen it.
The live director understood traffic perfectly. The giant screens switched at once to the four-person ¡tandoff.
Akito, who had grown up in a great family, understood attention even better.
In that second, he made his decision.
He would use Julian as a stepping stone.
He and Kane had to win this beautifully.
ľ
‘Cadet Shaw,” Akito said with a smile, “Kane and I will show you today that mud will never stick to a wall. no matter how hard you throw it.”
Julian said, “?”
Then he turned to Wesley.
“Then don’t be mud. Be crap. Whatever happens, you’re getting on that wall.”
Wesley said nothing.
