"This event will eliminate the three teams with the lowest scores. From the looks of it, these team leaders won''t be among those eliminated." "Well, that''s not necessarily the case."
"How could they possibly be eliminated? If a team leader is eliminated, wouldn''t that be a huge embarrassment for their airline?"
"Don''t speak too soon, the situation on the field can change in the blink of an eye."
Among the pilots, some older veterans, steeped in experience, knew all too well about the deliberate ousting ofpetitors in such trials.
This wasn''t underhanded; defeating opponents to ensure they posed no further threat was perfectly normal.
In the air.
Charlie''s heart pounded, "Madison... slow down, be careful not to hit the virtual track."
"It''s fine," Madison was surprisingly calm.
She had already imprinted the course in her mind, confident in her knowledge of how to fly it. Her expertise in these specialized areas had been honed at the first flight academy, not to mention the pointers her grandfather had once shared with her.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
Perhaps it was her grandfather''s blessing that was with her now.
Thus, she had even less reason to let their mainpetitor, Air China, take the lead.
"Zheng team, that ne nearby must be Madison''s, she''s flying fast too," Zheng Congyu''s deputy noted.
Zheng Congyu didn''t bother to look around, focusing entirely on piloting the ne to avoid touching the virtual track, perspiration dotting his forehead.
"We''re near the end!" his deputy eximed excitedly.
In the supervisory channel, two pilots typed messages.
Pilot One: Is there a chance of a leak?
Pilot Four: I''d like to know too. Howe there''s no need for a co-pilot?
The ground staff showed the conversation to the head of thepetition.
They were immediately curious about a possible leak.
But after the head official nced at the experience of the pilots on the two nes, he said, "No leak. Both have military flight experience; it''s normal for them to know the virtual routes." Sigh.
They had wracked their brains toe up with tasks none of the pilots had experienced, yet they still couldn''t avoid it.
What did this show?
A wealth of experience is incredibly valuable.
Those watching from the ground soon saw three or four nes emerge together from the clouds.
"Look, look!"
"Who''s in those two lead nes?"
"Probably pilots from Air China and Mukino Airlines, right?"
Apart from these two, who else couldpete?
Obviously, there was no one.
On the ne.
Charlie noticed another ne not far behind them and squinted, "Madison, we''ve got a ne on our tail."
"They''re keeping up with us?" Madison managed to speak even while flying the intricate course.
Charlie had experienced cutthroatpetition before, "I''m afraid they''re not just trying to win."
A flicker of unpleasant thoughts crossed Madison''s mind.
"It''s Air China''s craft!" Charlie clenched her teeth.
The next second, she suddenly shouted, "Madison, dodge to the right!"
Madison''s reflexes were lightning fast. Before Charlie finished her sentence, she had already steered the ne to the right.
Thankfully, the flight course wasplete, and all that was left was a routinending. However, this maneuver had veered them away from thending strip.
"We''re in trouble..." Charlie gritted her teeth in frustration, "They deliberately forced us off thending path! Zheng Congyu has already flown away!" First ce was definitely out of reach now.
Madison''s gaze was intense as she quickly redirected the ne towards thending strip.
However...
One ne, two nes, three...
One after another, nes flew past them.
"Madison..."
Charlie''s heart raced with panic, cursing the craft that had targeted them.
"It''s toote, if we don''tnd now, we''ll be eliminated."
Madison was acutely aware of this.
On the ground.
"What the hell? Captain Madison could havended straight on the runway, why did she suddenly change direction?"
"Could it be that she hadn''tpleted the route?"
"They were close to the runway; how could the route be iplete?"
"Did something happen?"
"It''s toote, four nes havended! Without Captain Madison among the first five, she''ll be easily eliminated!"
Brian was also anxious.
What were they to do now?
Elsewhere.
"Charlie, hold tight."
At Madison''s words, Charlie immediately gripped the safety handle, knowing Madison was preparing for a desperate move.
True to form, just as she secured
grip, the ne suddenly lurched

If they didn''t cut through, they couldn''tpete for a spot on the runway. The other nes wouldn''t make way but block her path instead.
And whether this was a tactic orchestrated by Zheng Congyu, Madison couldn''t say.
All she could do was give it her all to seize the runway first.
"My God..." Charlie felt as if they had spun a great circle in the air, her head nearly spinning.
The supervisor clung to the handrail for dear life.
Madison didn''t blink, her pupils reflecting the growing image of the nes ahead.
"Oh my God!!"
"Unbelievable!!"
"Is she a stunt pilot?!"
"She squeezed right between two nes? But can shend at this speed?"
Of course, she couldn''t.
The speed was too high for a safending.
So, everyone on the ground turned pale with fear as the ne, which had jostled its way through, headed straight for the end of the runway.
At the end of the runway, facing the assembly of watching pilots.
If she couldn''t stop, it would be the end for them all!
However, the anticipated disaster didn''t ur.

The pilots of those two nes, reacting instinctively, quickly dodged to either side.
In the blink of an eye, the scene on the field changed.
The two nes flew off to the sides, and the craft that looked to be ousted from the racended in the opposite direction on thepetition''s dedicated runway.
The field fell silent for a moment.
Was such anding even possible?
Could someone fight so hard to avoid being eliminated?
"Brilliant!!!" Henry shouted first.
His voice roused the stunned Mukino Airlines pilots, who almost all stood up, cheering and apuding for the two women in the ne!
"Beautiful!"
"Awesome!"
"True to our team leader from Mukino Airlines, she''s got the guts! Haha!"
