Chapter 108 - Team Action Firsts Drama (1/2)

Jun Le and Vivian sat in a corner and watched the others scream at each other. Danny could hear the yells from below. By the time he arrived at the indoor sports hall, he was already mentally prepared for a damage cost of at least five thousand dollars.

Instead, he saw an intense match of basketball.

Camila acted as the referee and yelled foul when Dragon kicked Teddy away. From the headband colours, Rebecca and teddy were a team while Dragon and Roy formed another team. Danny deadpanned. Was this what the calories from pizza and burgers were going to be wasted on? When were they going to study?

”What's going on?” he asked the two boys who weren't participating.

Vivan smiled. ”They are competing to come to an agreement on whose strategy they should use. Rebecca said that focusing on core subjects was easier but Dragon and Roy claimed that they should work on the other subjects since the notes for the core subjects will be released soon.”

Danny groaned. He needed another smoke. Studying anything would be better than playing a thuggish game of two-men basketball.

Jun Le grinned happily as Teddy successfully blocked Roy while Rebecca scored. Dragon screamed in anger at his loss. The blue team was completely wiped and Rebecca looked smug with her win.

”There, we won this fair and square three to two. We are doing core subjects,” she panted.

Roy rolled his eyes. ”I'm going to sit out on this. It's too easy.”

Jun Le's eyes followed the high jumper with a sparkle. Whenever he met opponents who underestimated him, Jun Le would also have a similar look in his eyes.

While they rehydrated, Rebecca started lessons, taking special care to smack Dragon with a foam bolster she found in the storeroom. Camila tidied the place up for lessons and was pulling out stack after stacks of frisbees.

Danny watched as Jun Le approached Roy who claimed that core subjects were too easy.

”Are you confident to get a hundred?” he asked.

Roy raised his brow. Who was this pipsqueak?

”Hundred? I'm not Rowan. As it is, getting an A for core subjects would be easy. I'm only bad at history and language seeing as my brain refuses to remember things.”

Jun Le nodded. ”How about helping them out then? Rebecca can't handle this many people. Dragon alone needs two dedicated tutors.”

Roy thought about it and Danny observed from the side. Whatever these kids were planning, he had to observe for a little while to see if it was safe and effective. Rebecca seemed to have something up her sleeve when she made Dragon look at the same formula and practice the same question over and over.

Roy walked over and took over the drills thanks to Jun Le's nudging. That gave Rebecca some time to help Teddy out. The chess grandmaster helped Camila to arrange the frisbee and took out some markers to scribble multiplication questions on scrap pieces of paper.

It was true that some people's mathematical basics were lacking but what exactly were they up to?

His question was soon answered when Rebecca gave Roy the green light to stop.

”Alright, we're going to play a game. Have you all remembered the basic timetables and formulas earlier?”

”Yes, ma'am!” they saluted and Rebecca nodded.

Jun Le stood by the side recording answers and scores while Camila and Rebecca took turns tossing the frisbees with questions at the bottom. The training involved being able to identify key points in the question and applying the learnt formulas.

Danny was impressed. He had to be sure to include this in his report. The counsellor thought that Vivian and Roy might have higher scores but when Jun Le announced the results, they were all surprised at Teddy's accuracy.
