The Elite Five weren't newbies—not in the slightest.
Maybe, except for Kai, who, if you think about it, has only been playing for a little over a year.
However, when faced with the five veterans, they felt like babies.
The players stood in their positions, feeling the nerves of the game. They glanced at each other before nodding. Earlier that day, before going to the court, Kai had told them something. "We've got one shot at this," he had said.
"No showboating. No pride. We play as a team, or we lose as one."
For once, there were no objections—which was very impressive since the five of them were the most stubborn people Kai knew. Even Jian and Jimmy, who were usually defiant, nodded without any word.
They felt the implications now. Once they lose, they were really going to leave.
