Chapter 753: Chapter 753: Competition Standards?
"9.8 points! Wendy Tierney’s first shot scored 9.8 points!"
After the judge announced the score of the first shot, some were happy, while others were worried.
At the moment, the coaches of the Aethelgard Vanguard Corps, where Wendy was serving, were happily hugging each other.
"A near-perfect score on the first shot will definitely put some psychological pressure on the other competitors."
"I said it back then, bringing her into the team was the wisest choice."
Watching the scene from afar where the Aethelgard Vanguard Corps coaches were hugging each other, Walter Wright was in a panic.
"It’s over, it’s over. Wendy’s first shot already achieved such a good score. Bianca and Patrick might not hold it together."
"Wendy’s shooting has improved again. It seems she hasn’t slacked off in her training recently," Thomas Grant also frowned.
"It would have been better if Wendy hadn’t left our team back then. The gold would have been ours. But now... sigh!"
Feeling a bit regretful, Walter Wright also asked Thomas Grant, "By the way, why was Wendy expelled before?"
When Wendy, Thomas Grant, and others were going on the Westmarch escort mission, Walter was sent abroad on a mission, so he wasn’t very clear on what happened during that time.
He only knew that when he returned to the country, he received news that Wendy had been expelled, while he got a promotion for his successful mission abroad.
"Because of her own character issues," Thomas Grant replied.
Not minding her place, she aspired to replace the Family Head’s wife and even complained about the Family Head’s wife in front of Lord Keaton!
That’s a character issue.
However, Thomas Grant did not plan to share the details with Walter Wright and simply glanced at the crowd on the field and said, "The gold will still end up in our hands, don’t worry too much."
Walter Wright: "I really don’t understand why you have so much confidence in July Quinn. She hasn’t participated in a single training session. Rather than pinning hopes on her, I think it’s better to rely on Bianca. This girl has been training quite hard recently."
Yes, ever since the competition with July Quinn at Stillwater Villa, Bianca was at the training field every day, regardless of the weather.
And what’s most surprising is that Bianca, who previously never listened to Walter’s instructions, recently started taking them seriously and even improved her performance.
So today, Walter Wright felt a bit hopeful about Bianca.
As it happened, it was Bianca’s turn to shoot, and Walter quickly focused all his attention on her.
Meanwhile, Wendy’s first shot from position one scoring an impressive 9.8 points put some pressure on Bianca.
Bianca took a deep breath, telling herself she must make a mark, making those who underestimated her tremble at her feet, including her cousin!
Then, Bianca fired her first shot.
"9 points. Bianca’s first shot scored 9 points!"
This score wasn’t outstanding in all of Bianca’s training, but it wasn’t too bad either.
However, compared to Wendy’s score, it still seemed lacking.
But Bianca believed she would definitely find an opportunity to surpass Wendy later.
After Bianca, it was the turn of a few others.
Some seemingly couldn’t handle the psychological pressure well and only scored 5 points.
While some performed beyond expectations, surpassing Bianca with a score of 9.3 points.
In no time, it was Patrick Sullivan’s turn.
He was in pretty good shape, scoring 9.7 points on his first shot.
Even Walter Wright couldn’t help but praise, "Patrick’s talent is truly remarkable. Choosing him for the International Vanguard All-Round Tournament was definitely the right choice."
After Patrick finished his shot, he seemed very satisfied with his score and turned back to look at July Quinn, "This is what it means to compete, did you see?"
