Job Change For Everyone: My Job Can Infinitely Evolve

Chapter 89: Winning Three Matches in a Row

The following day was the second half of the individual Player Kill competition in the annual school professional competition.

The audience remained enthusiastic as they applauded and cheered. Many audience members even formed fan groups, meticulously preparing banners, streamers, and slogans for their favorite teams and contestants.

Banners and streamers filled the audience stands, as far as the eye could see. Every fan group competitively cheered as if to see who could cheer louder for the teams and participants they liked most.

Moss didn’t have a battle in the morning, but he arrived early at the waiting area. He came to cheer Alan on while observing his competitors.

Moss noticed that Alan was nervous, so he distracted him by saying, “The addition of the spherical drones yesterday was quite enjoyable, huh, Alan?”

“Oh, yeah! Those drones are a great addition to this year’s competition. I interacted with the drone and asked it to report on our group’s battles when I watched your match yesterday,” Alan’s eyes lit up as he excitedly talked about the spherical drones to Moss.

Alan pursed his lips and stretched out his three chubby fingers as he spoke with a displeased expression, “Although, I wish the interaction time were longer. The interaction time is only three minutes long if others want to use it.”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Moss and Alan chatted for ten minutes before the deafening sound of drums echoed through the stadium.

Alan, who had just laughed, abruptly revealed a stern expression. He even rubbed his palms with his thumbs from time to time.

Moss saw through Alan’s nerves, so he put his arm around Alan’s shoulder and encouraged him, “Relax, Alan. Our teachers have carefully created counter-measures for us. We’ve also conquered a two-star Mystic Realm together. You are no longer the Alan in the awakening stage from a few days ago.”

Alan felt much better when his best friend encouraged him. His eyes shone brightly as he confidently followed the drone to the arena.

Just like that, the second day of the individual Player Kill competition began.

…

The battles that occurred that morning were as exciting and intense as ever. The most famous players won their battle with no surprises.

However, there were some unfavorable battles. A player from Number Six High defeated a player from the crowd favorite, Number Three High’s Mighty Winds.

Moss watched the competition the entire morning and discovered that watching the matches and participating differed entirely, especially watching his school’s participants.

One may tend to feel mixed emotions and psychological changes when watching one’s team fight.

Of course, Moss would feel a sense of pride whenever his schoolmates won their battles. Sometimes, his feelings would be stronger for his schoolmates’ battles than his own.

Although Moss had a match in the afternoon, he was unusually relaxed. He knew that Deng Lun had seriously injured the opponent he would face in the afternoon.

As expected, Moss won his afternoon match without even unsheathing his sword. He only used his shield to win the battle. Moss’s afternoon match seemed easy and carefree compared to his battle with the ferocious Berserker, Stan.

Moss felt like he hadn’t had enough action yet. But after his match, he immediately set aside his relaxed mind and shuttled around the various arenas, observing the more popular contestants’ performances.

…

Although the organizing committee hadn’t announced the team Mystic Realm competition yet, the general ranking of each team was updated based on the contestants’ performances over the past two days, and a new individual comprehensive ranking got added to the list.

The top five teams remained on the list, but their positions changed. The Super Whirlwinds, Crimson Fires, and Invincibles were in first, second, and fourth places. However, the third and fifth places had swapped, putting the Youth Forces in third place.

Due to Mill and Bass’s outstanding performances, Team Mill had risen in ranks, claiming seventh place.

Team Moss went through the most changes. They were in thirty-second place previously but managed to climb the ranks, claiming the twenty-second place in the overall ranking.

The top ten were as follows:

First place: Miller, from Number Two High.

Second place: White, from Number Two High.

Third place: Turner, from Number Five High.

Fourth place: Voss, from Number Three High.

Fifth place: Deng Lun, from Number Two High.

Sixth place: Mitchell, from Number Six High.

Seventh place: Evan, from Number Four High.

Eighth place: Tom, from Number Two High.

Ninth place: May.

Tenth place: Pell, from Number Five High.

White Deer High’s highest-ranking student was Mill, who was fifteenth on the list, while Moss was eightieth. It was because he won three consecutive battles. Otherwise, Moss would’ve been last on the list.

The organizing committee released the ranking list, quickly attracting intense discussions.

Meanwhile, Number Two High’s lounge scene was lively and joyous. Campbell and the teachers leisurely discussed the newly released list.

“Principal Campbell, take a gander at our school’s contestants. They have received full approval from the National Professional Alliance. The Super Whirlwinds has entered the top ten of the individual ranks!”

“Yeah, it’s going to be a brilliant year for us. Everyone will remember Number Two High after this.”

When Campbell heard the teachers ‘ praise, his heart was full of joy, but he feigned calmness before the students and teachers.

He continued to sip his red wine as he said leisurely, “Yes, very good. Since the National Professional Alliance approves of us, we cannot let them down. Our students will fully display the elegance of Number Two High!”

However, the usually cautious Campbell rolled his eyes and added, “Nonetheless, we have to remain vigilant. Do not allow our carelessness to cost us our rightful victory. Oh, right, what’s Team Moss’s ranking?”

“Moss has won three consecutive matches, Principal Campbell. His team members have also won several consecutive matches. However, Moss’s luck will come to an end. Tomorrow will be his final match in the individual Player Kill competition!”

Campbell was aware of Deng Lun’s strength. After watching a few matches, he noticed the gap between Moss and Deng Lun. Thus, he nodded in agreement. The corners of his mouth curled into a menacing smile as a trace of viciousness appeared in his eyes.

…

Meanwhile, everyone was busy in a famous gambling ring in White Deer City. They were at their busiest whenever they heard a new announcement.

As soon as the organizing committee revealed the ranking list, the gambling ring entered a state of emergency. The analyst in the gambling ring raced against the clock, calculating the new odds.

The gambling ring severely lacked telephone operators and related service staff. They even forced their interns to answer the phones, working double shifts, twenty-four hours a day, constantly answering phone calls. Despite that, they still failed to meet most fans’ needs.

“Hey, didn’t I tell you to add five hundred yuan to Miller just now?! Why isn’t it on the report yet?!”

“W-What? Moss’s odds were still low when I placed a bet yesterday. Why is it going up?”

“I’m sorry, boss. They’re still updating the odds. Please be patient.”

“I’m sorry, the previous odds have already changed. We can’t add to it. If we buy in again, we’d have to recalculate the odds.”

“Jeez, your odds change faster than a balloon popping. How am I supposed to buy in now?!”

“F*ck!”

No matter what the gambling ring’s workers did, they couldn’t please the betting fans when faced with constantly changing odds.
