Chapter 38: Chapter 36 Preparation

The Beiqiao Shuizhong Team left Tiger Gymnasium and Oakland victorious.

As the bus pulled away from Fremont High School, the onlookers by the roadside watched with a resigned and calm demeanor.

Inside the bus, the Shuizhong Team players suppressed their ecstasy, partly because they were all tired and sleepy, and partly because they didn't want to provoke people nearby in Fremont.

It wasn't until the vehicle left Oakland and got onto the Bay Bridge that the team's emotions truly exploded and were released.

They rolled down the windows, shouting out to the Pacific Ocean Bay, venting more than two weeks of mental pressure and the joy of victory.

The Bay Bridge, spanning San Francisco and Oakland, tightly binds the two cities together. At night, the lights on the steel-cable bridge outline its shape, seemingly illuminating the path forward for the Shuizhong Team.
