Chapter 1848
Mr. Hardy frowned and looked at Zeke. "Did I offend her?! She was the one who offended me! Anyway, regardless
of who offended who, don't go easy on her! Do you hear me?!" Mr. Hardy stormed off, missing Zeke's pale face
along the way.
Tm the one in trouble if I encounter her! It's hard to predict who will be the one showing mercy to the other! Nicole
initially had no intentions of squaring off against me! Yet, Mr. Hardy had taken the liberty to screw it up for me! Ugh!
This really pisses me off!' Zeke thought.
Nicole and Mr. Zach had returned to their seat by then, with the latter saying to Nicole, "Thank you for earlier. Don't
let this affect you later. Go and get yourself ready for the next round."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRyder nodded his head. 'Alright.’
Nicole only nodded lightly, showing that she had heard him. Mr. Zach felt that Nicole was even more mysterious.
The next round was in full preparation, and everyone was anticipating the duel between Zeke and Rowdon. This was
essentially a competition between the sitting champion and a famous hacker, an intense match that nobody had
expected to witness when they came to participate in the competition. The crowd was rubbing their hands together
in anticipation.
While the organizer was preparing professional equipment for Rowdon on stage, other participants had also taken
their seats.
Mr. Hardy led Zeke to his position, not forgetting to remind him. "Good luck! You'll bring glory to the school if you
defeat that famous hacker and enter the finals directly!"
Mr. Hardy would never pass up the opportunity for Zeke to make a name for himself.
Then, Zeke looked at Rowdon coldly, and calmly replied to Mr. Hardy," Don't worry. I'll definitely skip the semi-finals
and advance to the finals."
Zeke would never miss the chance to save some time if he could.
At that point, Rowdon looked at Zeke with mockery in his eyes. ’Well, don't you have a big mouth? Still, I do admire
your bravery. You're not even flustered at the thought of facing a professional hacker like me. After the competition
ends, I might consider letting you join The Hunters."
Zeke sneered. 'Wait till you know who I am before you say those things."
Rowdon was left flabbergasted at Zeke’s arrogant behavior. 'Who could he be? Who could this high-schooler even
be?'
Rowdon's eye's then turned cold as he suspected Zeke was just bluffing.
He would not let Zeke pass this time, for this was his month-long effort. After all, the duel had everything to do with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhis reputation.
'As the webmaster of The Hunters, ranking fifth in the international hacker's leaderboard, wouldn't it be a joke if I
lose to a high scholar? I would be the laughingstock of everyone around me,' Rowdon thought to himself as he
began to prepare for the competition.
The match was a head-to-head competition. The previous round depended on the speed by which they could crack
the master-level programs. Now it was a direct confrontation between the two, to see who could hack into the
opponent's CPU first. It was a rather competitive match, and everyone was paying close attention to it.
On the other hand, Nicole was up against Edwin, who could not resist himself from complaining, "Ugh! How did we
end up together?"
Nicole shot him a playful look. "What's wrong? Are you not happy with that?"
