Whoosh!


    The crowd was stunned!All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    First ce!


    And it was someone from the Austenberg team!


    Joy was over the moon.


    "OMG, Joy, you''re incredible! You actually got first ce!" Debra squealed with excitement.


    Joy couldn''t hide her happiness. Even though she knew she''d done well, seeing the results made her heart soar.


    "Joy, you really kept this under wraps. After the exam, when I asked how you did, you just said ''okay''!"


    "It''s such an honor for our team to have someone get first ce!"


    Feeling the envious eyes on her, Joy felt even more proud.


    She held her head high.


    But Selene frowned. Joy, first ce?


    She couldn''t believe it.


    They had attended the same training, and Selene knew Joy''s capabilities. Scoring 91 was already beyond expectation, but first ce?


    If Joy got first, then where did Flora ce?


    Selene was filled with doubt, and Mr. Tanner was just as surprised.


    He never imagined Joy would clinch first ce.


    With her skills, he thought cing in the top fifteen would be a stretch.


    But obviously, he was thrilled with Joy''s high score.


    He gave her a nod of approval.


    "Well done."


    His tone was confident.


    At the same time, he sighed inwardly, thinking that if Flora had attended the training and not guessed wildly, she might''ve snagged first ce. Such a pity.


    After hearing Joy had imed first ce, Flora, who had been silent, finally looked up at the big screen.


    A chill crept into her eyes.


    The next name to appear was Selene''s.


    The screen disyed it in bold letters.


    Selene, 90 points, 2nd ce.


    Now, the other teams were getting restless.


    First and second ces both from the Austenberg team? That was unheard of!


    Mr. Tanner''s smile grew wider. Selene''s score was within his expectations. He was about to praise her when, the next second, a row of ring red letters appeared on the screen. en FindNovel


    Flora, zero points, 430th ce.


    Overall ranking for the Austenberg team, 78th ce.


    In an instant.


    The room fell into a deathly silence.


    So quiet you could hear a pin drop.


    For what felt like an eternity.


    Thenughter started to bubble up.


    "Haha! Flora actually got zero points! I heard she just guessed randomly at the end, but seriously, not a single question right?"


    "The Austenbergpetitors did


    really well overall. With first and


    second ces, they could''ve at least


    been in the top ten, maybe even fought for the top three if it weren''t for Flora."


    "I''m starting to feel sorry for the Austenberg team. If I were them, I''d be furious with Flora!"


    Only the top fifty teams could advance to the next round.


    Now, with the Austenberg team ranked 78th, they didn''t even qualify.


    This was the first time the Austenberg team had entered the medicalpetition and failed to make it to the next round.


    The big screen was already scrolling


    through the scores and names of


    the other teams. Mr. Tanner kept staring at it for a long, long time before finally sinking into his chair.


    He closed his eyes and sighed.


    No one expected Flora to score zero.


    Even if she had scored fifty or sixty points, they could''ve made it to the next round.


    The other Austenbergpetitors looked as pale as ghosts.


    Their lips trembled, unable to say a single word.
