Chapter 354: -347- Competitiveness
On the high platform of Demacia, Marshal Tianna's knuckles turned pale as she tightly grasped her sword, expressionless as she looked at the television.
Although her face showed no expression, with her usual cold demeanor, her actions revealed that she was somewhat thrilled at the moment.
Because the images on the television not only ignited the enthusiasm of the people in the grand square but also excited this marshal.
She stared intently at a young man she recognized, a soldier of the Dauntless Vanguard.
"The one leading the race is Shagu from the Qiyasha tribe, but he doesn't have much of an advantage because behind him, the girl from Stonewall Town, Little Stone, is catching up to Shagu at an extremely fast pace! And from Little Stone's face, it's not hard to see that she's still got plenty of stamina left!"
"In third place is Kaeya from Demacia!"
Seraphine spoke rapidly, her professional demeanor shining through. Recently, she had been learning how to narrate events on the field. And even with flaws, they were often overlooked due to Seraphine's captivating voice.
Because Seraphine's voice was just too pleasant, and after she raised her tone, anyone listening to her voice couldn't help but be excited.
"Little Stone has overtaken Shagu!"
"Kaeya has also overtaken Shagu, and now leading in first place is actually a girl!"
Tianna heard this and pursed her lips.
What's wrong with being a girl?
Except for Freljord, there is a bit of a male-dominated culture in any country in this world, but these situations occur more often in weaker countries and tribes. But in nations like Demacia and Noxus, what matters is not gender, but ability.
This can be seen from Tianna being a woman and becoming a marshal.
"There are still two hundred meters to go, and Little Stone is still running in the lead!"
In Stonewall Town, Ayelia covered her mouth, with Uncle Stone next to her, and Liz, who was already shouting.
Uncle Stone raised his hands high, shouting encouragement with force.
The mayor of Stonewall Town was also waving his cane, tapping the ground with excitement.
Of course, they knew that Little Stone couldn't hear their voices.
Of course, they knew that doing so would seem a bit silly.
But at this moment, watching the skinny girl running with her head down, and panting heavily, they couldn't help themselves.
"Come on, Little Stone!"
Ayelia even joined in the shouting. Since fleeing from Noxus to Stonewall Town, Ayelia had always had a heavy feeling in her heart.
Being ravaged by war, plus not finding Alistar yet, changed her.
It made her a reticent person.
But now, seeing Alistar on TV and witnessing the girl she had spent several years with running in first place in such a competition, Ayelia suddenly shouted.
Feeling this regret, Ayelia suddenly felt the heavy feeling in her heart seem to have lifted.
Her heart beat faster, the corners of her mouth showed a large curve, and then, she shouted again.
"Come on!"
"You can do it!"

"Vi, come on! How can you be in the sixth place!!!"
Hearing the piercing scream in her ears, Lux lowered her head in distress.
Of course, she wanted to cheer for Vi because she had a good relationship with Vi.
But Lux also wanted to cheer for Kaeya because Lux was from Demacia!
And Kaeya often took care of her, being a friend of her brother's, he could also be considered her brother.
So, it's not strange at all to cheer for Kaeya.
But when she noticed Powder next to her, Lux decisively chose to close her mouth.
Not cheering for Vi, at the same time, she didn't cheer for Kaeya either.
Helping neither was the best choice.
Seeing Vi running was back there, Powder was really anxious.
"Darn it, it's all because I let you steal my food every day, and now you're so fat you can't run!"
At this point, Powder would hug Lux's neck while yelling, and Lux's head would rest against Powder's flat chest, feeling the sof... touch of ribs....
Reaching out, Lux squeezed Kaisa's hand who's also cheering for Vi, signaling for help.
However, Kai'Sa didn't respond to Lux.
Because she was also very excited now!
The audience watching TV was excited, let alone those watching live.
The waves of cheers made Kai'Sa excited too.
Even as an enforcer who's maintaining order, Kassadin was getting hyped too.

"In first place, Little Stone!"
Seraphine shouted loudly.
"Congratulations to Little Stone for winning the first place in the 300-meter sprint with a time of 20.03!"
The camera shifted from Linwin to a girl.
Her skin was somewhat dark, and she looked young. She was looking up at a screen with bright red letters and time displayed on it.
Little Stone couldn't read, but she heard "first place," and then, she looked up at the bright red letters on the top line of the screen.
"But there are still several groups behind to compete. Who will be the first in the sprint? Please stay tuned!"
Seraphine shouted loudly.
---
"How do you feel?"
Linwin asked with a smile, putting his arm around Vi's shoulder.
The second group of participants is getting ready, and Linwin found some time to come and find Vi.
Currently, the first place on the leaderboard is Little Stone from Stonewall Town, the second place is Kaeya, and surprisingly, the third place is not Shagu, but a young boy.
And Vi, she's in sixth place.
And in the first group, there are only eight people running together.
Vi can be said to be at the bottom.
"Very annoyed," Vi leaned against Linwin and said.
"That was kinda unexpected," Linwin tightened his grip, patting Vi.
He knew Vi too well.
Vi's competitiveness is extremely strong. Caitlyn helped her sign up for the race, and at first Vi might not have taken it seriously. But after the opening ceremony, after this competition, with Vi's personality, losing the race would definitely make her unhappy.
And now, it's exactly as Linwin expected.
Looking up at the screen, the current first place is a sixteen-year-old girl named Little Stone.
This really caught Linwin by surprise. He knew this girl could run fast because she was quite famous in Twin Cities Village, but Linwin didn't expect her to perform exceptionally well this time.
And she even outran Kaeya from the Dauntless Vanguard.
To this, Linwin was naturally surprised.
Is this girl's physique... in terms of speed and endurance, not much worse than this Dauntless Vanguard soldier?
Is she really just a native girl from Stonewall Town?
"I will win it back in boxing."
Breaking free from Linwin's hand, Vi said loudly.
"Haha..."
Watching Vi's back, Linwin couldn't help but laugh.
Winning back in boxing?
Ha, that's even harder than the race.
Vi's fighting skills are of course formidable, being the top fighter in Twin Cities is no joke, and she's been super good at fighting since she was a child.
But in this combat registration form, there are also a bunch of monsters.
Sett, Sejuani, these two 'S' named guys, can Vi really beat them in a fight?
If Vi wears a Hextech gear, of course, she can win easily, but the problem is she can't!
And these two guys, one is a half-vastaya, and the other is an iceborn.
Linwin shook his head, forget it, this is not something he should worry about.
"The second round, get ready!"
Ionia's physique is strange, if Demacia's Dauntless Vanguard are average superhumans, then Ionia can randomly producing big superhumans!
Like Xin Zhao, Yi, these guys, their physique can't be said to be human, especially Xin Zhao, he's a monster with a young face in middle age.
