Then, unexpectedly, answering their questions, Rowan's cold expression melted away, replaced by a wide, genuine smile that seemed to light up his entire face.
"Hahaha," Rowan laughed out loud, his voice ringing with genuine amusement. "You really fooled us all, Junior."
Everyone blinked in surprise, the tension in the atmosphere easing slightly. Rowan extended his hand, his smile sincere and dazzling.
"Congratulations on your victory," Rowan said warmly, his eyes shining with awe and intrigue. "You and your team did an incredible job. You truly earned this win."
Adrian stared at the extended hand for a moment, then slowly reached out and clasped it. The arena erupted in cheers, the crowd's admiration for both teams clear.
"You were amazing too," Adrian replied, a hint of a smile tugging at his lips. "I thought I was done for several times."
