Chapitre 27: CHAPTER 27
In the chess arena, the students from both sides sat down one by one.
Gloria's opponent was Vincent.
Facing the mayor's son, Gloria had a decent smile and a gentle voice, showing the demeanor of a rich young lady.
She hoped to win the favor of the mayor's son so that it would be more convenient for her to do things in the future.
However, Vincent had no time to pay attention to Gloria. He looked at Kendall at the end of the line through the crowd, and he couldn't help blushing again.
She looked great in the maid outfit.
Now she looked even better in her school uniform!
Without the cuteness of the maid outfit, she was even more glamorous and aloof in the school uniform!
Seeing this, Gloria gritted her teeth.
What was so good about Kendall? Why was he watching Kendall?!
The mayor's son was probably blind. How could he ignore her, the real good girl?!
Kendall's opponent was Ellen.
As soon as Ellen sat down, she snorted coldly, "Kendall, I won't leave halfway like your previous two opponents. Don't cry and beg me to draw!"
Kendall didn't talk nonsense. She just moved a chess piece and pressed the chess clock.
In the auditorium, a student was watching the game between Kendall and Ellen.
Others nudged him and dissuaded him, "Are you stupid or something? What kind of suspense can there be between Kendall and Ellen? You should look at other people!"
"You're right."
Except for the students in Class 7, almost no one paid attention to the game between Kendall and Ellen because everyone knew that Kendall's chess rank showed that she had not passed the test.
She had won two games purely out of luck.
In the finals, she met Ellen from the strongest LWHS. How could she compare with Ellen?
She would certainly be the one who lost the game the fastest!
Even the reporters authorized by several schools to be in charge of taking pictures and videotaping all pointed their cameras at the others, acquiescing that Kendall was out.
Time passed slowly in the more anxious game.
Students from the two schools fought fiercely on the chessboard, which was exciting and tense.
Beads of sweat dripped from the forehead of Gloria, who carried the hopes of Powell High School students. Not only did she not get the advantage, but she was gradually at a disadvantage.
She could feel that Vincent was always better than her.
After all, the mentor of LWHS was Jones, the strongest chess player in Rosemont.
She took a deep breath, pushed down her "king" and said, "You win."
In chess, to push one's "king" down was to concede defeat.
If she didn't admit defeat, she would lose even worse later.
"Oh…" Disappointed voices sounded in a wide range.
Seeing that Gloria was defeated, the rest of the students at Powell High School stopped persevering and conceded defeat one after another.
Austin persisted the longest but to no avail. He could only push down his king in the end.
"It seems that we have got a champion now. Congratulation… No, Kendall and Ellen are still playing!" The referee scanned the board and was about to congratulate LWHS when he found that Powell High School hadn't been completely defeated!
Kendall, who everyone guessed would be out early, was sitting there playing chess with Ellen!
Jones, who was ready to accept the award on the stage, turned to look at Russel and found that Russel's eyes were fixed on Kendall.
The gleam in his eyes was called hope!
Kendall and Ellen instantly captured everyone's attention.
The reporters rushed over, afraid of missing any details!
In the camera, Kendall was sitting in a standing posture, with a straight back, a calm expression, and no rush!
Ellen was pale, sweating profusely. Her eyes were out of focus, and her lips were trembling!
Ellen's confidence and arrogance before the game was gone!
The chess clock on the side had already turned half a circle.
It meant that Ellen had spent half an hour just thinking about the next move!
A few minutes later, Ellen pushed down the king and said weakly, "I -surrender."
She was no match for Kendall!
Kendall was not a rookie!
Kendall knew every move she was about to make!
But she had no idea what Kendall was about to do!
Wow!
The audience became excited, and those who were about to leave sat back.
Asher led the students in Class 7 to cheer, "Kendall, you rock!"
The referee picked up the loudspeaker, "Powell High School, Kendall wins and enters the wheel war mode!"
The wheel war was a separate rule set up for the finals.
The referee picked up the loudspeaker, "Powell High School, Kendall wins and enters the wheel war mode!"
The wheel war was a separate rule set up for the finals.
When Party A had only one person left, he was going to fight against all the people of Party B who had not been eliminated one by one to guard the last hope.
This would be nothing more than two results.
He would either win all or equalize the points, and then the mentors of both sides would play the final round!
He might be exhausted in his fight against a certain person and leave the field.
It was no exaggeration to say that Kendall shouldered the glory and victory of the entire Powell High School.
The current score between Powell High School and LWHS was 1:19.
In other words, Kendall needed to win 19 games in a row to tie the game. She couldn't afford to lose even one game!
Gloria was dumbfounded.
All of them had lost to LWHS, but Kendall won.
She was a country girl, but she knew how to play chess.
Shouldn't she hold them back?!
Why did she become the last hope?!
On the chess arena, the referee asked Kendall excitedly, "Which student from LWHS do you want to play with in the first game?"
Kendall had options.
"What time is it?" Kendall said irrelevantly.
"Four thirty in the afternoon." The referee looked down at the watch on his wrist.
"Well, let's play together. I'm in a hurry to go to work." Kendall sounded so calm and confident.
"1V19, play chess together, I will lose if the timeout expires."
She had to go to work at Grace's dessert shop.
Hearing her words, others were shocked!
Jones looked at Russel frequently. Was she Russel's student? She was so cocky.
Russel clenched his crutches tightly and couldn't help smiling.
He knew Kendall would not let him down!
The referee trotted over to Adrian, Jones, and Russel to ask for their opinions because what Kendall was going to do was unprecedented and outside the rules!
"It depends on what the two mentors have to say." Adrian's tone was complicated.
He remembered what his friend Damien had said about Kendall.
Damien called her a sharp sword that was hard to hide in the box.
Now it seemed that this "sharp sword" was about to be unsheathed!
"I'm fine with that." Russel smiled, looking expectant.
1V19, what a crazy and exciting thing!
"Since my old friend has no objection, then I agree." Jones sneered, "I just hope that after the game, no one will say that LWHS has more people and is bullying her!"
The girl named Kendall with no rank had indeed beaten Ellen.
But Ellen's strength in LWHS was only mid-to-low!
He didn't believe that Kendall could beat all of them!
The staff followed the instructions and rearranged the chess arena.
Nineteen tables were arranged in a U-shape, which was convenient for Kendall to stand behind and move around.
Vincent took the stage again with the students except for Ellen and took their seats in an orderly manner.
"Kendall, are you sure you want to do this?" the referee asked one last time.
He hoped Kendall would understand what it meant to do that.
Playing chess was not a physical fight, and it was not simple as punches or kicks.
One needed to use his brain to play chess, to think, plan and trap.
The brain of an ordinary person was only enough to support the victory or defeat of a game of chess.
Kendall would have to deduce 19 games of chess in her mind at the same time!
How appalling!
"I'm sure." Without hesitation, Kendall stepped into the U-shaped battlefield!
