Chapter 70: The Race and the Unexpected Attack
---
The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as the crowd gathered for the much-awaited race.
The field, vibrant with the chatter of students and spectators, reflected the tension in the air.
Adam sat quietly on the bench, his lean frame relaxed but his eyes focused.
Beside him, Eric leaned back, his carefree demeanor masking an undercurrent of excitement.
"Adam, this is your moment," Eric said, playfully patting Adam on the shoulder. "Show them what you're made of."
Adam smirked faintly but said nothing.
The announcement rang out loud and clear from the teacher stationed near the track,
"All participants for the 200-meter race, please come forward!" The crowd erupted in cheers as the participants began moving toward the starting line.
Among the noise, Adam's parents stood out, their supportive cries booming above the rest.
