Chapter 264 Xanthea blinked back tears as she stood outside the coach's lounge, feeling utterly alone without Orion around.

Alright, everyone, listen up! We're kicking off the third round of assessments-100-meter dash!" "Tracks are divided by gender, with the fastest male and female getting 2 points, the slowest scoring none, and 1 point!" You've "This final round will determine your chances of picking your instructor teams, so give it all you've got!" "Boys, get ready!" yone else receiving a a nap." Nelson grumbled, "Competing in a sprint against a former Olympic champion?

Xanthea, Isabella, and Olivia were neck and neck in points.

For them, this sprint was crucial. Winning could mean securing a spot on Team Orion.

Rachel, although trailing by a point from the shooting round, could still cout on top if she won this race.

As the four girls lined up, the tension was palpable, even through the screen.

Bets are open! Who's your pick?] I'm betting on Xanthea; those long legs give her a natural edge!] [I'm on Olivia. Sure, Xanthea's got the height, but she's been more of a pampered princess. Olivia's got real track experience from the junior sports festival!) [No takers for Isabella? Something tellsshe's got her eye on Xanthea; it could be the established top stars' apprehension towards the rising new ones.] "Ladies, to your marks!" "Ready-" Jonathan blew the whistle, and the girls got into position, the race ready to explode into action.

Isabella clenched her fists, determined to outrun Xanthea.

Olivia glanced at Xanthea's dominant stride and felt a surge of malice.

This was the final assessment; she couldn't let Xanthea win!, Especially after she seemed to have charmed Mr. Lockwood. If she also made his team, who knew what would happen next? As they prepared to start, Xanthea looked up and saw Orion stepping out of the lounge, watching the race from the sidelines.

The track was narrow, and with the high speed and their flashy athletic gear, it was a blur oxmotion. Amid N the intense competition, no one noticed Olivia suddenly stick out her leg, sending Xanthea tumbling. "Aah!!!"

Mid-sprint, Xanthea tripped and fell to her knees, sliding forward due to the momentum, clearly off the track and heading towards the sidelines until she grabbed onto something to stop herself. The incident happened so fast that the crowd was still processing what they saw.

the Xanthea, did she just crash into Mr. Lockwood's legs? She exhaled a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, she hadn't hit the hard om track, and the soft grass had m cushioned her fall in not for something to grab onto, she could have been seriously injured. *apter 26 She wondered who had tripped her. She would definitely confront her later! But for now, realizing what-or rather, whose legs-she was holding, she looked up and found herself face-to-face with Orion.
