Chapter 165: A Deadlocked Score, Who Will Win and Who Will Lose?

Chapter 165: Chapter 165: A Deadlocked Score, Who Will Win and Who Will Lose?

Cedriel raised his long, thick tail, using his body to spin the snow tube around. At the same time, his tail swept away the surrounding inflatable bowling pins. With a few loud CLATTERS, he also achieved a great score of eight!

[Cedriel: Even though I only scored eight points, my posture was cooler than anyone else’s!]

[Compared to the Mojin King Tiger, why does Doctor Xu look even more pathetic?]

[Xu Yi: After working hard for so long, I can’t even compare to a divine tiger’s tail swipe. Sob...]

When Cedriel swaggered back to the starting point with triumphant steps, he even deliberately shot a glance at Xu Yi. The doctor couldn’t hold it in anymore, completely turning into a depressed wreck.

"I’m not playing anymore! This is too much bullying!"

"Ahem, how about... we just announce the end of the match?" Liang He suggested. She couldn’t bear to torture their fragile little hearts anymore.

However, the remaining Silver Feather and Hoder were not the type to admit defeat easily. They completely ignored Xu Yi’s complaints, rallying their spirits to strive for a comeback!

"I’m next!" Silver Feather declared.

She stepped up as the second to last. The final person would undoubtedly face much more pressure, so she figured it was best to leave that burden to Hoder. Refusing to overthink it, Silver Feather used her lithe posture and natural instinct for the snowy environment to easily score a fantastic nine points!

[This young lady is so cool! So far, she’s the one who makes it look the easiest!]

[As expected, a strong female lead is my favorite! Let me hug you, sis!]

[As soon as the cool lady appeared, everyone and every beast before her was put to shame! Hahaha!]

So far, the Divine Team had sent out four people for a total of twenty-one points. In contrast, the Divine Beast Team had only sent out three, yet they already had twenty-three points. Therefore, it would be extremely difficult for the Divine Team to catch up unless the Platinum Giant Lion and Canglan Hunting Eagle made mistakes.

"Then Cyril will go first. Lanton, how about you take the finale?" Liang He didn’t want to end the match abruptly. She decided to let the more energetic Platinum Giant Lion go first, especially since he hadn’t performed very well during the demonstration earlier.

As for the Canglan Hunting Eagle, although being the last one carried a lot of pressure, Liang He believed that if it was the loyal and reliable Lanton anchoring the team, he would definitely succeed.

"ROAR!"

"SCREECH!"

The two Beast Beasts had no objections to Liang He’s arrangement. The result was exactly as she had predicted: although the Platinum Giant Lion didn’t jump up in fear this time, he only knocked down four inflatable bowling pins.

"Cyril is so brave. You’re not scared anymore, right?" Liang He praised. She didn’t care about the score; her first instinct was to encourage the Platinum Giant Lion’s bravery. This instantly cheered him up from his slight disappointment.

"ROAR!"

"That’s right, I am the bravest lion!" he thought proudly.

[Pfft— The Platinum Giant Lion is really... so easily coaxed. [Facepalm.jpg]]

[But Cyril really did better this time than last time. At least he didn’t embarrass himself. He deserves praise!]

[Wait, what’s wrong with you toxic commenters? Weren’t you just mocking Doctor Xu? Double standards are a big no-no!]

[Now both teams have one chance left, and the total score difference is six points. I wonder if there’s a chance for a comeback?]

There were still some netizens who cared about the results of the match. The Divine Team was trailing by six points. If Hoder could get a perfect score and the Canglan Hunting Eagle scored less than four points, they had a chance to turn the tables.

"How about we push Hoder together?" Xu Yi suggested. Hoder was probably the heaviest among all of them. It was difficult for one person to control the force alone, so Xu Yi wanted Silver Shuttle to help push him.

"Alright! We’ll push together!" Silver Shuttle, who had already composed himself, nodded with a firm gaze. If they could achieve a comeback, half the credit would be his!

"Hoder, tell us when you’re ready."

"Alright, I’m ready!" Hoder’s fighting spirit had also been ignited.

Having observed for so long, he had basically mastered the trick to avoiding a wipeout. All he needed to do was knock down as many bowling pins as possible. Actually, there was a loophole in Liang He’s relaxed rules. For example, the moment he was about to crash, he could lunge at the inflatable bowling pins with all his strength. Even if his feet touched the ground, it would still count as completing the task of knocking them down.

[Wow, Mr. Bodyguard is so smart! He actually knocked down all the bowling pins!]

[Amazing! Does this mean the Divine Team has a chance to turn things around?]

[Now it all depends on the Canglan Hunting Eagle’s performance. As long as he gets less than four points, the Divine Team wins!]

People were always particularly interested in underdog comebacks. Even a trivial bowling match could arouse their enthusiasm.

"Hoder! Well done! You were amazing!"

The Divine Team cheered for Hoder’s perfect score. However, they hadn’t forgotten the Canglan Hunting Eagle, who was going last. It was a bit too early to celebrate. Logically speaking, the Canglan Hunting Eagle only had two talons resting on the snow tube. It would be very easy for him to lose his balance and flip over, so they weren’t entirely without a chance to win.

"Liang He, you aren’t going to let Lanton cheat and fly over with the snow tube in his claws, are you?"

Feeling that victory was in sight, Xu Yi was no longer sad and even had the time to nitpick. Of course, he was just joking and teasing. He didn’t genuinely suspect Liang He and the Canglan Hunting Eagle of cheating.

"Flying over requires flapping wings, and Lanton won’t do that," Liang He replied. Her meaning was clear: first, if they were suspicious, they could judge by whether he flapped his wings; second, Lanton had his own pride and disdained cheating.

Just as Liang He said, the Canglan Hunting Eagle merely spread his wings to maintain balance without flapping them.

"What? That works?!"

Under Silver Shuttle’s disbelieving gaze, the Canglan Hunting Eagle obediently stood on the snow tube and hurtled toward the bowling pins. However, because his wings were so broad, he didn’t need to brake at all; he simply plowed straight ahead, scattering the inflatable bowling pins in all directions.

"..."

As the final inflatable bowling pin was blown over by the wind generated from his wings, Silver Shuttle and Xu Yi hung their heads in disappointment and sighed deeply.

"Sure enough, the ones holding the finale are all big bosses..."

In the end, the Divine Beast Team still won by a margin of six points.

[Lanton still has a huge advantage playing this game~]

[I think it’s a bit unfair. If it weren’t for his wings, the Canglan Hunting Eagle might not have won.]

[Wait, are you guys only looking at his advantages and ignoring his disadvantages? Lanton has to control his instincts while standing firm on the snow tube. That in itself is very difficult.]

[Agreed with the person above! Besides, it’s just a game to begin with. If we’re really going to be serious about it, the Divine Team would have lost right at the beginning when they failed to even touch the pins.]

Seeing that the netizens were about to start arguing, Liang He hurriedly said goodbye to them and closed the livestream. Turning to look at the dejected Xu Yi and the others, she had already thought of comforting them with good food.

"You’ve been playing all afternoon. Are you hungry? How about we prepare dinner early?"

Although they had finished breakfast at almost eleven o’clock, it was past three o’clock now, so it was fine to start preparing dinner. Upon hearing this, everyone raised both hands in absolute agreement.

"Eat! I’m going to turn my grief into appetite!"
