Catherine had just finished her meal when she received a call from Marshall, asking them to gather in the hotel's second-floor meeting room in ten minutes to discuss the details of the upcoming competition."Shall we go?" Catherine looked up at Amelia.After taking the last bite of the pizza, Amelia mumbled, "Sure, coming right up!" She was too full from eating but could not waste the delicious food. Having such perks while sharing a dorm with Catherine was fantastic.After getting ready, Catherine and Amelia headed towards the meeting room. The third floor of the hotel was a conference hall with various meeting rooms.This hotel was the closest to the competition venue. Since the competition hadn't started yet, the early-arriving teams had to rest in nearby hotels. Several teams from seven or eight countries were staying in this hotel.Catherine and Amelia made their way through the crowd towards their meeting room. Catherine's beautiful face immediately drew the attention of man

Inside the office were the judges of the organizing committee and the chairman of the committee, Richard Goodman. Everyone held their breath as they watched Richard, known for his sternness, slowly emerge. It was well known that he didn't like any trouble, especially during competitions.Styre University had violated Richard's taboos this time, and people didn't know what kind of punishment Styre University would face. Some secretly gloated at the thought of Styre University being expelled from the competition, while others felt sorry for them. Missing out on such a major competition would be a huge loss for Styre University."Who's causing trouble?" Richard asked in a cold voice. His deep voice echoed throughout the meeting room, making everyone tense and hold their breath.Members of the Johnville Team couldn't wait to speak up as soon as Richard appeared. Although Richard was from Alton, he had Theisian heritage, and they were confident he would support the Theisian team."Mr. G

After staying at the hotel for three days, the Bide Cup officially began. Styre University sent out two teams, led by Marshall for the EIE Team and Fergus for the Biology Team. Having two teams at once already made Styre University a strong contender among the nations.The competition started, and the opponents for the first round were decided through a draw. Fergus's team was the first to go up for the draw, and they ended up drawing the Isaranian Team.The Isaranian Team wasn't considered very strong, so winning against it in the first round wasn't too difficult. The university leaders immediately sought Fergus's opinion, asking about his team's chance of winning. He gave a modest smile and gestured a number—sixty percent.It was well known that Fergus was always cautious and liked to keep a card up his sleeve. When he said sixty percent, it probably meant at least eighty percent. Upon hearing this result, the university leaders felt reassured. If there was an eighty percent chanc

The next day, the competition officially began. Due to the spread of various rumors, many people were pessimistic about Marshall's team, believing that they were bound to lose.Before the competition started, the odds for betting on the outcome had already soared to 1 to 30, with almost no one believing that Marshall's team would win. In order to earn more money, some unscrupulous haters spread rumors about Catherine, even going as far as to say that she only became a researcher in the laboratory through personal connections.Marshall led his team to the entrance of the sealed laboratory. He personally ushered each of his students into the laboratory. When he saw Catherine, who was walking at the back, he gently patted her shoulder. "Don't worry. Just believe that you are the best," he said earnestly.Faced with Marshall's sincere advice, Catherine remained indifferent. Used to her temperament, Marshall didn't mind. "Remember, you don't need to worry too much. Just follow your heart

Marshall led the students to lunch after the competition ended. They couldn't return yet, as the result of the competition would be announced in the afternoon. After discussing it, they all went to the designated cafeteria for the participants to have their meal.As they sat down after ordering their food, they watched the Johnville Team, who appeared arrogant and insolent, swagger into the cafeteria.Marshall, not wanting any trouble, advised his students, "After eating, let's go to the rest area and rest for a while. Once the competition result comes out in the afternoon, we can go back to the hotel and take a good rest."Jason overheard these words as he passed by. "Why wait for the afternoon? In a competition that's certain to be lost, waiting for the result is meaningless. I advise you guys not to waste time. Go buy a ticket back home early and focus on your coursework. Hah! You're going to lose anyway!"Jason's disdainful laughter infuriated the students of Styre University.
