บท 69: He figured it wasn't a big deal

As Robert was wrapping up his speech, he decided to give one last motivational push to the students present.

"This training isn't just for us, but also includes students and teachers from Elemental High School. Last year's Florida ACT Rising Star came from Elemental High School. This year, let's strive to reclaim the Rising Star honor!"

"Dismissed!"

Amid sparse applause, the meeting finally came to an end.

On the way home to pack, Cain spoke mysteriously, "Mike, I just found out, there are actually 21 spots for this summer camp training!"

"One extra spot?" Mike quickly caught on, "Are you talking about James?"

In the combat tests, James had conceded two matches early and was defeated by Mike in a challenge.

Losing all three matches, James naturally didn't qualify for the summer camp.
