The No.1 Military Academy did not get a ranking in this round of the competition. However, because they got first place in the previous two rounds, their total points did not fall to the very bottom.
Chloe and her friends played in the artificial small base for about two days before the first place was finally decided. Surprisingly, it was the Brut Military Academy.
Second place was Tagar, and third place was Sasley. The No.1 Military Academy was at the bottom.
Chloe still found it a bit strange - how did the Brut Military Academy end up getting first place? She was just thinking about it to herself, but Daniel directly cried out:
"How the hell did the Brut get first place? Is there some kind of scandal? What happened with Tagar and the others? I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Huaibei forced his mouth shut.
Daniel looked extremely angry and frustrated.
It was fine that they didn't get first place, but when they saw the Brut Military Academy get it, they felt extremely upset.
This whole thing was just too much of a coincidence.
Chloe thought that before the competition, Kamen from the Brut Military Academy was still arrogantly saying that the first place would definitely be theirs in the next round.
At that time, she thought it was just a joke. But who would have thought it would actually come true?
Now it was just awkward. Extremely awkward.
Chloe exchanged glances with her friends, and they unanimously fell silent.
After a long time, Katherine said softly:
"I still feel like this is too suspicious. For it to happen twice in one competition that a military academy doesn't get assigned a terrain, not to mention that rainforest giant snake that was supposed to be extinct showed up, and we just happened to run into it? It's just too unlucky to be a coincidence."
Qin Huabiei pressed his lips for a moment. "Let's not think too much about this. Otherwise the media will say we're sore losers. Perhaps this is just our bad luck."
Katherine lowered her eyes, her brows slightly furrowed.
She still felt like something was not normal.
"Actually, I think so too," said Chloe lightly.
When she saw that everyone was looking at her, she shrugged and said matter-of-factly:
"Is this hard to understand? Our No.1 Military Academy has the strongest capabilities. If it wasn't for these strange coincidences, wouldn't the first place have been ours for sure in this competition?"
She narrowed her eyes slightly. "And I don't believe there are such convenient coincidences in this world."
Katherine nodded firmly in agreement. Daniel also cried out,
"I'm telling you there's definitely something sketchy going on!"
Chloe glared at Daniel. "Keep your voice down. I do think something is off, but we shouldn't show it on our faces right now, lest others gossip about us. Especially you, Daniel."
Daniel looked extremely wronged as he went to sulk in the corner, hugging the hot water bottle.
Soon after, the spatial vortex appeared and sucked all the No.1 Military Academy members back.
As soon as they landed, a noisy group of reporters crowded around them.
Daniel almost got a microphone stuffed in his mouth.
The reporters squeezed against each other:
"What are your thoughts on losing the championship in this competition?"
Seeing Daniel reveal an angry expression, Chloe quickly shoved him behind her and steadily grasped the microphone:
"First of all, congratulations to the Brut Military Academy on their championship. I always knew this military academy had unlimited potential. Although they were temporarily left behind before, as long as they seize the opportunity, they will claw their way up relentlessly like an undefeatable cockroach."
Just then the Brut Military Academy people happened to walk by them, so Chloe gave Kamen a thumbs up gesture and earnestly said into the microphone:
"Go Kamen! We believe in you!"
Over there, Kamen was disgusted by her deliberately sweet tone of voice, cursing "psycho" under her breath before going over to the other reporters to give interviews.
The reporters were also a bit stunned, not expecting that Chloe would choose to confront the Brut Military Academy straight on.
Fortunately, the reporter quickly reacted and continued asking: "So what are your thoughts on this competition?"
Daniel popped his head out from behind Chloe, yelling loudly:
"Mushroom soup! Extremely tasty! I recommend everyone try it!"
Qin Huabiei pressed him back down.
Chloe glanced back, raising an eyebrow slightly, before turning back around to continue answering:
"We felt this competition was very interesting. Not only did we experience the wonderful feeling of brushing up against death two or three times, we also got to experience quite a happy camping life. I'm very satisfied personally."
She passed the microphone to the other team members. "What about you guys?"
The teammates behind uniformly answered: "We are also extremely satisfied!"
Their voices were full of energy and they sounded extremely happy.
Chloe nodded in satisfaction and stuffed the microphone back into the reporter's hands. She tiptoed and patted his shoulder, then led her teammates away.
Leaving the group of reporters tangled up in the wind behind them.
Weren't they here to film the No.1 Military Academy's embarrassing loss? How could they all be so relaxed and carefree? Weren't they really upset about losing the championship? Or were they just putting on a strong front?
But when the reporters turned around to look at the retreating backs of the No.1 Military Academy members, they discovered each of them had straight backs, walked briskly, without the slightest hint of dejection or despair.
The mentality of the No.1 Military Academy's main team... was unexpectedly good.
...
Chloe really didn't care that much.
Although they didn't get to enjoy pulling down the flag, the camping experience was still pretty good.
People should be content with what they have and follow their hearts' desires.
Just as she was thinking this, Ren Yunying walked over from the other side.
Chloe hurried over and said awkwardly: "Instructor Ren, we lost the first place spot. You aren't mad, are you?"
Ren Yunying looked at her speechlessly: "As long as you kids can come back alive, I'll thank the heavens and earth."
Chloe grinned and scratched her nose.
Looking at this group of cubs who were more or less injured, Ren Yunying felt distressed but also gratified.
She crossed her arms. "You all did very well this time. Being able to exhaust the rainforest giant snake to death, you've already surpassed many of your peers."
"Especially you," Ren Yunying singled out Chloe. "If I'm not mistaken, your perception should have levelled up, right?"
Chloe, caught off guard at being singled out, immediately said excitedly: "Yes!"
No one was clearer than Chloe herself about the changes in her body and perception.
She was super powerful now!
Ren Yunying shook her head, then swept her gaze over them and landed on Anderson's figure at the back.
The youth's eyes were very tranquil, without any ripples.
Even when their eyes met, there was no extra expression in the depths of his eyes.
Ren Yunying felt a slight headache coming on.
She called out Anderson's name. "You, come with me."
Chloe looked at him in surprise.
But she saw Anderson silently nod, reaching out to tidy his sleeves.
Noticing Chloe looking at him, the youth rarely revealed a gentle, comforting smile, and said softly:
"Don't worry."
