Chapter 563 E-sports Competition
The scene was silent for at least a minute as if even the air froze instantly.
The several boys sitting directly before Catherine had almost identical expressions and movements. Their eyes and mouths were wide open as they stared straight in Catherineâs direction.
The one who came back to the senses first was Amelia. After all, she had been with Catherine for a while and was already somewhat familiar with Catherineâs striking looks. She wasnât that surprised.
However, Amelia was still excited to see so many people marveling at Catherineâs appearance.
She lowered her voice and approached Catherine. She said, âSuper Catherine, your appearance is truly stunning and amazing!â
Catherine glanced at her lightly. She coughed to clear her throat. Her sudden cough pulled back the drifting thoughts of those around her.
The boys lowered their heads one after another. They dared not to look directly at Catherine again. The female senior smiled awkwardly, but inwardly, she was thrilled.
She did not expect that she would accidentally find such two beautiful schoolgirls for the club. With the addition of these two schoolgirls, their club would have no worries about flourishing.
The female senior said to Catherine and Amelia, âPlease take a seat. Our club is different from other clubs. The biggest characteristic of our club is that we donât follow the rules. Iâll introduce you to the members of the club so that you can get to know each other.
âThis is the president of our club.â
The boy mentioned had a simple and honest appearance. The skin on his face was smooth and clean. He wore a pair of black framed glasses, which made him look like a good student.
He took the initiative to stand up and greet Catherine and Amelia, âHello, guys. My name is Franco Braun. Iâm a junior in the engineering department.â
Catherine followed Amelia and responded to Franco, âHi, Mr. Braun!â
The female senior mysteriously whispered to Catherine and Amelia, â Iâll tell you a secret. Franco and Hero are in the same dormitory. Hero can definitely be considered a member of our club.â
Catherine had no interest in Hero at all. She looked very calm.
Amelia was different. She was so excited that she was about to jump up.
Looking at Ameliaâs excited reaction, Franco felt a little proud inside. Hero was really a living sign for their club!
He looked at Catherine again. Seeing that Catherine did not show any interest in Hero, he could not help but be a little curious.
âCatherine, donât you like Hero?â
Catherine did not expect Franco to ask her about it like this suddenly. She turned her head to him and replied, â Yes!â
Her cold tone made Franco a little embarrassed.
He thought in his heart, âHer nature is so cold.â
Amelia sensed something was wrong with the two of them, so she tried to smooth things over quickly. âMr. Braun, itâs not that Catherine doesnât like Hero. Thatâs just her personality. Sheâs not interested in anything.
âShe is completely focused on her studies, and I forced her to join the club. I just want her to interact with everyone more so that she can have a more outgoing personality!â
Ameliaâs explanation instantly dissolved the awkwardness. Franco smiled and said, âIt seems that Catherine should be a top student with excellent grades!â
Catherine did not respond.
Amelia rushed to answer, âOf course. Catherine is my idol when it comes to studies. Sheâs the top science student in Casier. Sheâs very good at her studies!
In the face of Ameliaâs praise, Catherineâs expression remained indifferent. She still stood in her original position.
She did not seem arrogant or irritable but exuded a domineering aura.
At the Styre University, there were many top students. Everyone there was accustomed to the students with excellent studies and isolated personalities.
After all, at Styre University, a top school, students who focused on learning and neglected other things were too common.
âI see.â
When they were chatting, a member of the club suddenly shouted out, âHoly shit!â
The sudden sound instantly attracted everyoneâs attention. Franco looked toward the club member who had yelled out. âBerg, what happened? Why are you shouting?â
Berg was the personâs nickname, and everyone in the club called him that.
âMr. Braun, those guys from the University of Penny are initiating a challenge to us inside the public channel.â
Hearing Bergâs explanation, a member
shouted disdainfully, âSo what? Berg, take it easy. Itâs just such a small matter. Itâs not worth shouting like that! Are we still afraid of the Penny Team?â
âCut the crap. Letâs turn on the game, get online and fuck them off!â
Berg was so anxious that he patted his legs to explain, âItâs not like that. Their team has recently recruited new players, too. They recruited the striker of the League Team, and their morale has risen so much that they said theyâre going to make us lose seven times in a row tonight!â
âThe striker of the League Team? You mean Stanley?â Franco frowned at Berg.
Berg nodded. âThatâs right. Itâs him. Mr. Braun, why donât we ask Hero to join us? With this kind of professional player like him joining them, we still need a good player to secure a win!â
Stanley was the League Teamâs newly recruited striker. His playing style was particularly aggressive. He became famous not long after joining the team.
Although all of them were good at the game, they were only limited to playing against ordinary players. There was still a big gap between them and professional players.
Facing Bergâs proposal, Franco shook his head. âHero is in closed training these days.â
Hearing this, Berg was a bit desperate.
âWhat are we going to do then? Wait to lose?â
Franco tried his best to act calm in order not to let his teammates suffer from low morale.
âDonât be so demoralized. Who says weâre bound to lose? They said they would make us lose seven times in a row? The Penny Team is too arrogant.
âLetâs get online. Letâs go frustrate the Penny Team!â
They met such an intense scene on their first day joining the esports club. Amelia was a bit nervous and pulled on Catherineâs sleeve secretly.
âSuper Catherine, is this going to be okay?â
Catherine glanced at her with a faint and cold look. She looked incomparably calm.
âLetâs take a look first.â
There were only four positions in the game team.
To facilitate better viewing for the rest of the club members, Franco projected his phone onto the large screen.
As soon as the players of the esports club got online, the Penny Team sent out an invitation to apply for a rivalry match.
They chose the entertainment mode, team killing!
The rules were simple. The team members could resurrect an unlimited number of times, and whichever teamâs one member got 16 kills first, the team would be considered the winner.
Team scores would not be accumulated. Only individual scores were considered.
Everyone was familiar with this mode. Franco and his team also used this mode before, so they were particularly familiar with this map board.
As the team leader, after entering the. game, Franco started deploying.
âBerg, you three cover me. This mode is for combat. My ability to shoot is still good, so Iâll be the main player!â
Berg and the others naturally had no problem with that. After all, among the four of them, it was indeed Franco who was the best in the game.
While they were still deploying, the Penny Team had already started clamoring arrogantly.
âFranco, stop struggling. Just admit defeat voluntarily.â
The opponentâs sarcastic tone sounded very unpleasant, making them very uncomfortable.
Originally, playing the game was to have fun, but to the Penny Team, it became a symbol to show off their strength.
Although the Penny Team said harsh words, the esports club refused to admit being inferior to them.
âLetâs use our strength to tell us who will win. Penny Team, be careful. Donât get a real walloping later!â
