Chapter 67 - Chapter 67: Here's Our Chance!

"Impressive, Saiki, I slightly underestimated you."

Sudo patted Saiki's shoulder, smiling as he spoke.

'?'

Saiki's eyes were full of doubt.

"Just now all of your opponents were members of the track and field club. I didn't expect you, Saiki, to actually be able to achieve such a ranking!"

Hirata Yosuke also smiled as he praised.

'You @#¥@#¥'

Saiki was already completely speechless.

"Saiki-kun... you're amazing..."

"Not bad, Saiki!"

Karuizawa and Sakura immediately handed over water, praising Saiki.

———

Unknowingly, several events had already ended.

Before the next competition started, the initial scores of the red and white teams were announced, Red team 2,110 points, White team 1,891 points.

Although the competition had just started not long ago, the red team already had a slight advantage.

The next event was the pole-toppling contest, simple yet rough, and somewhat dangerous as a group competition.

The rules were very simple, there were several wooden poles inserted into the soil on the field. The class on the field needed to protect their own class's wooden poles while pulling out the opponent's poles. The group that first took down two of the opponent's poles would win.

'Yare yare, actually have to participate in this kind of match?'

Although he already knew earlier that he had been assigned to this event, Saiki still felt a bit helpless about his situation,

'But thinking about it a little, this event can be accepted. As a team event, at least I can fish in troubled waters.'

Saiki raised his head. In front of him was the allied army of Class C and Class D. Although there were familiar faces like Kanzaki Ryuji, there were also quite a few unruly elements from Class D.

'Although they say the classes are divided according to overall ability, there are obviously a lot of troublemakers assigned to Ryuen's class.'

Saiki thought in his heart, and at the same time he could also hear the inner voices of those Class D members.

[Kill them!]

[Beat the hell out of these guys!]

[We must beat them to death!]

'Hey, hey, isn't this a sports festival event? Why does it sound like a fight?'

Saiki narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze falling on the direction where Ryuen was in the opposing camp.

[In the pole-toppling contest, the referee has no requirements for actions during the match, so if someone gets injured in it, it will be regarded as an accident during the match!]

[I've already taught these people techniques like elbow strikes. Let's make Sudo get injured in this match.]

[Let us white team take this event.]

'Yare yare, I see.'

Saiki had already heard Ryuen's thoughts earlier. It seemed the other party was going all out,

'Although I originally wanted to fish in troubled waters, if it's like this, I can't just sit by and watch.'

After everyone was ready, with the referee's whistle, the match officially began.

Class A was responsible for defense, while Sudo of Class B led other boys from his class to attack,

But at that moment, Class D students also rushed forward in a crowd. Some members directly surrounded Sudo tightly, and took the opportunity to keep elbowing and shoving him.

Even though Sudo's physical ability was quite good, he still felt unbearable pain, and for a moment lost his balance, falling to the ground.

"You guys are completely using foul moves!"

Sudo shouted angrily.

"Just complaining is useless. In the eyes of the teachers, getting injured in this match is a very common accident~"

Ryuen, on the side, coldly smiled as he looked at Sudo.

Aside from Sudo, boys from Class C were also responsible for defense. Although they did not use dirty tricks like Ryuen's class, they still successfully restrained Class B without Sudo.

On the other side, the remaining Class D members raised their elbows and charged forward recklessly, easily tearing through Class A's defense, and Albert had already arrived in front of the first pole, his enormous strength easily pushing it down.

"Damn it!"

Sudo unwillingly climbed up from the ground, loudly complaining.

"It's not over yet! The second round is about to start! We still have a chance!"

Hirata Yosuke immediately comforted Sudo.

Although knocking down two poles meant losing, now the red team was already at the edge of crisis,

The second round's battle had already begun, and Class D chose to repeat the same tactic, some went to foul Sudo, while Albert and others directly charged toward the second pole.

About seven or eight boys surrounded Sudo, openly using various methods to attack him. He was already prepared to endure pain,

But Sudo found that when others hit his body, it didn't really hurt much at all.

On the contrary, those Class D members' faces instead showed expressions of pain.

"This guy, is he made of steel bones?"

"So painful, so painful!"

"What's going on, what's with this guy's body?!"

Sudo didn't care about that and directly charged toward the opponent's pole, easily toppling it.

It was a tie.

"Awesome!"

The red team members shouted loudly in celebration.

"Strange, I feel like just now I was full of strength?"

Sudo looked at his own hands with a face full of doubt, but one second later, his gaze moved forward, and a smile appeared on his face, "It must be my determination to win and the effect of adrenaline! I've heard that in extreme situations humans can unleash infinite potential, it must be like that!"

'Yare yare, actually it was psychic powers.'

Next to Sudo, Saiki looked at him expressionlessly.

Just now, it was exactly Saiki who used psychic powers to assist Sudo's breakthrough.

He used telekinesis to reduce the damage of Class D students' attacks on Sudo, and also launched some degree of attack on them to make them feel pain, at the same time applying telekinesis to Sudo's torso to slightly give him more strength. This was the key reason Sudo could fight many at once.

It was precisely because there were many people and the scene was chaotic that Saiki could use his ability relatively freely.

[Damn, eight people still can't restrain him? Looks like I'll have to send more to deal with him! This guy is more troublesome than I thought.]

Ryuen's brows furrowed slightly at this moment, [But the one in the advantageous position is still us!]

On the other side, Albert had already completely torn through Class A's defense, arriving in front of the red team's pole and preparing to push it down. His physical strength far exceeded that of normal students, even above Sudo,

But even so, that pole didn't move an inch.

"WTF?"

Saiki watched all of this from afar, 'Although I originally planned to fish my way through, since you're doing this, I'll also give you a little lesson.'!

"Holy shit!"

At this moment, Albert's mind was full of doubt. Clearly earlier he had easily pushed down a pole, but now he couldn't push the second one at all.

That pole was as if welded to the ground, not moving an inch.

In reality, this was exactly Saiki's doing with telekinesis.

At the same time, Katsuragi Kohei and other Class A members were holding onto Albert's body with all their strength, trying hard to push him backward, forcing him away from the pole.

This action barely achieved some effect, even with Albert's terrifying strength, he gradually fell into a disadvantage, being pushed back little by little.

[Albert's strength is actually not enough?]

Ryuen's face showed a somewhat surprised expression. He hadn't expected that even with Albert, they would be at a disadvantage. Clearly when pushing down the first pole earlier, Albert was very relaxed.

[But I suppose Katsuragi's side should also be near their limit. As long as we keep defending now and take out the most threatening Sudo, the one winning in the end will still be me!]

Ryuen thought so, and immediately shouted loudly, leading the people around him to go together to block Sudo, within just a few seconds, more than ten people were blocking Sudo's way.

"You're not getting through!"

Ryuen's face wore a provocative smile, his eyes locked on Sudo.

"My current state couldn't be better!"

Sudo also smiled at Ryuen, "Right now, I'm like I've entered a ZOOM or FLOW state!"

'Did you walk into the wrong set?'

Saiki silently retorted in his heart, while his gaze remained fixed on Sudo.

Just now, he had been continuously using psychic powers to assist Sudo, which took quite a bit of his focus, after all, if he wasn't careful, others might be blown away, or Sudo himself might be blown away.

Now that Ryuen had brought even more people to surround him, Saiki needed even finer control.

"We have to take this point!"

Sudo suddenly accelerated, rushing toward another pole, while the allied army of Class D and Class C simultaneously charged toward him.

'I'll help you a little.'

Saiki spoke to himself in his heart while using telekinesis to slightly control Sudo's movements.

"This feeling... it's like there's a god helping me!"

Sudo felt he was in an exceptionally good state, making sudden stops and sprints, almost breaking out of Ryuen's encirclement.

[This guy, although his physical ability is indeed pretty good, is it really to this degree?]

Ryuen was already panting heavily, and at the same time, he was completely enraged by Sudo.

In his eyes, Sudo was just a guy no different from an idiot,

But now, even so, he still couldn't take him down. This made Ryuen very unhappy, and he was eager to completely crush Sudo.

Sudo sped up, with Ryuen and a group of people chasing frantically behind. During this process, Sudo also very nimbly avoided the opponents' attacks again and again.

"Go support Sudo!"

Hirata Yosuke shouted loudly, and other boys from Class B rushed forward to help.

On the sidelines, the audience also kept cheering.

"This is amazing, this is the first time I've seen such a match!"

"Didn't expect that guy named Sudo to be so agile, so impressive!"

"He's indeed very impressive... but isn't this match supposed to be the pole-toppling contest? How did it turn into tag?"

After someone said this, the spectators seemed to fall silent for half a second.

"Damn it, is this guy a monkey?!"

At this moment, Ryuen was panting heavily, his face full of exhaustion.

'Good, keep it like this and use Sudo to take the match. This way...'

"Saiki, here's our chance! Go now!" Just then, Sudo shouted loudly to Saiki.
