328 Choosing the Next Captain!
Nat noticed how seriously Moss watched the match and felt even more impressed.
‘Moss is always able to surprise people, and he’s humble,’ Nat muttered inwardly.
During the college entrance exams, Moss was still tenth in the country. Although the results of the entrance test were a mystery, judging from Moss’s various performances, Nat could already feel that Moss should have been first in that test.
Later, after entering the reserve team for the national first- and second-year student exchange competition, Moss also won over the entire team with his performance and gained everyone’s recognition.
After that, Moss took part in all sorts of activities. He even had to work with the National Magical Beast Emergency Defense Center, or EDC, to deal with some matters which delayed his training and studies.
However, after returning to the team, Moss did not fall behind the others and trounced Noel, even though Noel’s hard work and progress during Moss’s absence were evident.
Moss was even more composed, outstanding, and unexpected when performing in such a significant competition.
He was already among the top first-year students from Kyoto and had a mighty Magical Beast. It undoubtedly made his overall strength even more outstanding.
In the beginning, Nat still had a sense of superiority over Moss. However, in just over a month, she could only look up to the latter now.
Therefore, when she saw that Moss, who was even more powerful, was still entirely focused on studying the competition, Nat only had one thought: to work harder and not fall too far behind Moss. Only then would there be more possibilities between her and Moss.
With this in mind, she looked at Moss with eyes full of adoration before devoting herself to studying the competition.
However, if Nat knew what Moss was thinking, she would probably be even more surprised!
…
Bishop was sitting in front of the big screen in the resting area, discussing the competition with Sofia.
Suddenly, he thought of something and glanced at Moss, who was focused on the match. The corners of Bishop’s mouth curled up as he looked at Sofia with bright eyes and said, “Miss Sofia, can we discuss who will take my place as captain in next year’s competition?”
Sofia blinked at Bishop and smiled. “Isn’t it too early to discuss this?”
Sofia would also think about this problem when she had nothing to do. However, she had never thought Bishop would decide on the next captain so quickly.
According to the usual practice, this would happen in the second semester of the first year. Even though Sofia had a few goals in mind, she did not expect Bishop to discuss this with her so soon.
“Haha, it’s never too early. After all, when this competition ends, we must prepare for the next one. I feel we should select the next captain as soon as possible,” Bishop spoke casually, but his eyes were full of determination.
“It seems you have a candidate in mind?” Sofia asked when she noticed the determination in Bishop’s eyes.
Since Bishop brought up this topic, she also wanted to hear who made Bishop want to choose the next captain so early.
“Yes, that person over there who studies the competition seriously and always surprises me can do it!” Bishop pointed his chin in Moss’s direction, his eyes flashing.
Hearing this, Sofia nodded in agreement and said, “I acknowledge his strength, and I have some understanding of his previous leadership abilities.”
She paused and then changed the topic, “But as Kyoto’s captain, he must be different from the past. He has to lead the geniuses among geniuses. Kyoto only has one goal: to fight for the competition.
It’s only the first semester of Moss’s first year, and many things can happen before next year. Moreover, he’s only sixteen years old. Even a strong and capable student like you only became the team captain in the second semester of your first year.”
“You’re right, Miss Sofia, but I think Moss will be more outstanding than me.” Although Bishop’s tone was gentle, his determined eyes met Sofia’s gaze again.
He explained, “The current Moss is already more outstanding than I was last year. Don’t look at his age, but his calmness and analytical ability surpassed me, who only became a captain in the second semester of my first year. I also have high hopes for him because of his spiritual power.”
Sofia became interested and asked, “What are your thoughts on that?”
“At present, my spiritual power has already reached the level of a low-level expert, but I still need help seeing through Moss’s spiritual power level.
“There were two reasons I couldn’t see through his spiritual power. One of them is that Moss’s spiritual power is more chaotic, so people can’t see through it.
“However, because he has such a powerful Magical Beast, I can conclude his spiritual power is more potent than mine.
“Moreover, you know one’s talent, and an awakened profession determines the upper limit of one’s ability. But now, there is one more important factor in determining one’s upper limit—spiritual power!”
Bishop noticed Sofia was deep in thought and added, “Although Moss’s profession is a Knight, from his various performances since he awakened his profession, he is the synonym of a miracle. He hopes to revitalize the Knight profession.”
“Yes, Bishop, I will consider your suggestion seriously. After the competition, I will report it to President Monte based on our team’s overall performance.” Sofia felt touched and excited by Bishop’s words.
However, she still thought they should wait to decide on such an influential role.
Hearing Sofia’s words, Bishop no longer insisted. He said smilingly, “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Miss Sofia.”

Bishop felt there was no need to continue this topic, so he took a document from the folder and said, “Miss Sofia, this is our battle plan for tomorrow’s matches against the Aerospace University. Please, take a look.”
Sofia took the plan and read it carefully. Five minutes later, her eyes lit up, and she nodded in praise. ‘Not bad! Based on the original, familiar battle plan, he made targeted adjustments and prepared backup plans.’
“It looks like we’re going to shock the other teams again tomorrow!”
…
The afternoon matches went very smoothly. The competition was also exhilarating, mainly because there were some unexpected results.
The competition would become more enjoyable and exciting whenever an upset occurred, and the audience could not predict what would happen.
Among these unpopular universities, Society University unexpectedly lost to Lingwu University. The biggest beneficiary of this was the competition host, Eastern University.
In terms of strength in the A1 half-zone, besides Eastern University, was Society University. Since Lingwu University had eliminated Social University, Eastern University could enter the top four without much effort.
