Jet's exaggerated voice continues to ring through the gym. "Alright, rookies, listen up! This isn't a kiddie league. This is Shizi High Basketball, home of the Dogs! If you can't handle the heat, you know where the door is!"
"We have been champions once, and we will be champions again! With my grit and leadership, I will take you to the top once more. However, that could only happen if you let me top you!"
Some applicants stifled nervous laughter, while others visibly cringed. A few even straightened up, trying to look tougher. Lina rolled her eyes, arms crossed, as she muttered, "This is going to be a disaster."
"That doesn't sound right," Andy muttered, shaking his head.
Meanwhile, Mingze, who decided to try out for this year too, shook his head. "Maybe I should have joined Bao and the others in the football team," he muttered.
Coach Muchen grabbed the microphone back, much to the Captain's reluctance.
"Thank you, Jet. That's enough."
