The audience erupted in a mixture of applause, shouts and admiration. Klaus's shot was simply extraordinary, and he had managed to hit the golden deer with stunning accuracy, even amidst the chase and time pressure.
Allan, for his part, was speechless as he watched the scene. He had underestimated Klaus's ability for some reason, even though he had witnessed his flawless performance on the circuit, and now he was facing the reality that he had been outdone. Sadness slowly settled in his eyes as he realized that Klaus had conquered the deer, but he didn't allow himself to fight or argue with Klaus about it, because he didn't have time, so he quickly ran back through the forest to find another golden animal to hunt.
Eventually, Allan failed to qualify and the leaderboard for the grand final looked like this:
[First Place - Klaus Park
Second Place - Ethan Williams
Third Place - Maria Gonzales
Fourth Place - Ryan Carter
