Chapter 160
Suddenly, chatters echoed across the room.
Lionel massaged the space between his eyebrows, seemingly irritated by the situation. “Okay, everyone. Please be quiet!” yelled.
“The reason why we gathered here today is to decide on the team distribution for our gaming tournament,” Lionel explained.
President!” A red–haired girl interrupted Lionel and said, “I dont want to be in a team with Samantha. I hope to be reassigned.”
Another girl retorted. “Well, did we mention that we agreed to be on her team either? We agreed that the teams would be assigned randomly from the beginning. You can’t just change things according to your wish now. Where’s the fairness in
that?”
“That’s right. If we are on the same team with Samantha, won’t we be at a great disadvantage?” another person demanded
Lionel raised his hand and motioned for them to be quiet. He looked at Samantha and said in embarrassment. “Samanth they don’t wish to team up with you. What are your thoughts?”
As everyone anticipated some kind of embarrassment from her, Samantha simply raised her eyes and sized up the crowd before declaring lazily, “Who is on the same team as me? And who is unwilling to have me on the team?”
She sounded like she wanted to settle scores.
The girl with red hair stood up immediately and said unapologetically, “Me, Clara! I don’t want to be assigned with
Samantha
“Neither do L‘ Another boy also stood up and said, “I’m Jacob.”
“Okay” Samantha nodded, discreetly jotting down their names in her head.
“What about the other two?” Samantha turned her head and looked at Lionel.
Lionel looked down at the name list in his hands and said, “Darwin, Leila, both of you are unwilling to change teams. Am I right?”
Everyone was looking around, trying to locate both of them.
A raven–haired boy suddenly sneered and asked, “Does it make any difference which team we’re on?”
A girl suddenly exclaimed, “I know him. He is the new prodigy in the Faculty of Computer Science! Rumor has it he challenged a professor to code during a computer class and even defeated the professor. His typing speed is incredibly fast. so he must be good at gaming too.”
“Oh
- my.
I’d love to be on the same tearn with such a prodigy! Isn’t it a waste of resources to pair him with the likes of Samantha?” another person exclaimed.
“According to his roommate, he is ranked among the strongest players in the game Heroes of Kings‘!”
Immediately, someone tried to recruit him.
Clara said, “Darwin, what about pairing up with me? I believe we can win the championship with our skills combined.”
“P, this Clara surely thinks highly of herself, Someone mused.

“She has every reason too! She participated in the Heroes of Kings‘ tournament before and was ranked in the top ten among the solo players in Elstunda. She was just in her teens at that time”
“Wow, that’s incredible! No wonder she doesn’t want to be on the same team as Samantha,”
However, Darwin only shot Clara an indifferent glance and spat out a word, “Troublesome.”
“You…” Clara’s face flushed red with embarrassment. Then, you better not regret it!”
Lionel shouted at the crowd again. “Leila, where is Leila? Are you here? Say something?
From the crowd, a female voice, cold and distant like an icebergspoke up. “No need to switch teams.”
“Hmph, who is this girl? Cuess she’s also a stubborn one. I bet she has no idea about Samantha’s reputation in our school.”
“Well, if she’s looking for trouble, then let her be. Anyway, well have a greater chance of winning”
Still, I’m envious that Samantha gets to be on the same team as Darwin
Someone scoffed. “It depends on who else is on their team. If the other four members are useless, not even a prodigy like Darwin can carry the whole team*
On the other hand, a man’s voice echoed
President! Our team would like to kick someone out and invite Clara to join us.”
Lionel frowned and asked, “Which team are you? Who are you kicking out?”
The boy replied, “We are Team Xander, and we’ve decided to kick Lawrence out
The boy named Lawrence looked at Xander in disbelief. “Xander How can you just kick me out like this?”
Xander didn’t even spare Lawrance a glance. He looked at Clara and asked, “What do you say, Clara? Would you like to join our team? All the members of our team are ranked above Supreme Star. With us, you’re in good company.”
Clara looked at Xander and the others with amusement and replied arrogantly, “All right. I suppose 1 can join you then.” Lawrence looked at his teammates incredulously. “How can you just kick me away like this? We signed up as a whole team!” Xander sneered and said sarcastically, “Well, because you are the team’s weakest link! If you’re not up to the mark, don’t point fingers when we scout for stronger players. With your skills, I think it’s apt for you to team up with Samantha. You’ll have plenty of time to study and improve yourself after getting eliminated from the game.
“Hahaha!”
There was a burst of laughter from the crowd.
Lawrence’s face turned red and pale, his fingers clenching tightly
Seeing this, Samantha walked toward Lawrence.
She stood in front of him and asked, “Would you like to join our team?”
Lawrence looked as Samantha, and his ears immediately turned red.
He had heard whispers about the newly emerged goddess, who was extremely pretty. He also saw Samantha’s photos in the forum and even saved them secretly.
But when he looked at Samantha closely, he found out that Samantha looked better in person.

Chapter 160
Her skin was so smooth that she looked like a doll.
Samantha was so beautiful that it was somewhat suffocating,
Somehow, he replied automatically as if utterly mesmerized, “Okay”
He didn’t think about anything at all.
Xander sneered beside him. “Well, congratulations in advance, Lawrence.”
Hahahal
There was a burst of laughter from the crowd again.
“President!” A boy with bright pink hair suddenly raised his hand. I wish to depart from my current team and join
Samantha’s
“What? Howard, are you out of your mind? How dare you ditch your friends to join that woman’s team?”
Howard curled his lips and said unscrupulously, “Well, I always value beauty more than my virtues. It doesn’t matter whether 1 get eliminated during the first round if I can team up with the beauty Samantha”
Samantha’s mouth twitched. “I’m not too keen on teaming up with you though.”
Howard smiled and said. “However, no one in the room wants to join you except me. Just accept your fate, Goddess Maybe we won’t be eliminated during the first round with me and Darwin in the team!”
“Haha Xander sneered. “Being eliminated in the second round is still being eliminated”
Howard rolled his eyes at Xander and said, “As long as I can be with Goddess, it’d be worth it, even if it meant being eliminated
Samantha silently facepalmed.
If it weren’t for the fact that she couldn’t find someone else to join her team, she really didn’t want to be with this guy. Not only was his manner of speaking overly flirtatious, but just his flamboyant pink hair was enough to vex her. Besides, if that jealous one were to find out that Howard kept calling her “goddess” non–stop, she could only imagine the trouble she’d be in….
Yet, following Lionel’s proclamation, the arrangements were finalized.
Howard and Jacob swapped places.
Lawrence and Clara swapped places too.
Therefore, Samantha’s team was finally formed.
