Chapter 932
They didn't even want to be seen anywhere near Karl. How embarrassing!
"The Jones family lost the first match, which was totally unexpected."
"The Reyes family has improved so much. Having a top coach from TM Club really makes a difference."
"I'm suddenly looking forward to this match now. I have a feeling that the Reyes family might be the dark horse this time. The Jones family might actually lose."
Luke's face was already sour like he'd bitten into something rotten, and hearing the chatter around him only made him angrier. They had invited these elite families over to laugh at the Reyes family, but now, it seemed the tables had turned on them! Zachary, usually the one with a smile for everyone, now looked as if he'd swallowed poison.
Casting a frosty glance at Karl, he barked at the Jones family team, "You all better bring your A-game from now on! We must win, and not just win, but do it in style, got it? Anyone who loses again is out of the Jones family!"
Everyone he looked at shivered and quickly shouted back, "Yes!"
Back with the Reyes family team, Andy's first move was to bow deeply to Youth. Without Youth bringing the TM Club team to train them, he wouldn't have stood a chance.
...
"No need to thank me," Youth waved it off. "I'm just here doing a favor for Flora. Without her, I wouldn't have come."
If it weren't for Flora, no amount of pleading from the Reyes family would have brought him here.
Andy turned to Flora and gave another deep, sincere bow. "Thank you, Miss!"
He knew it was all thanks to Flora, and he admired and appreciated her deeply.
Flora lazily responded with an "Ah."
As Andy and Karl cleared the field, the second match quickly got underway.
Andy had set a strong example, and the Reyes family was riding high on momentum, each one eager to claim victory.
But reality had a way of disappointing.
Andy's win came not just from intense training but also his natural talent.
The rest of the team, however, hadn't started with much. Even after cramming for half a month, they had barely improved and were no match for the Jones family, getting thoroughly trounced. One after another, they lost badly.
"Connor, I'm going to take a nap,"
Flora said after watching for a

"Mhm," Connor nodded, adjusting her head to make her more comfortable, and pulled a small blue blanket from his bag to cover her.
It was winter, after all. Best not to catch a cold.

"Just when we thought the Reyes family was going to be strong, they turned out to be just so-so."
"In the whole team, only Adrian and Andy seem to have any decent skills."
"But what's the use of a couple of skilled people? The overall weakness means they can't win. Now, the
Reyes family's team is tre
by
dozens of points."
Watching the Reyes family lose again and again, and so badly, everyone looked disappointed.
They had been so pumped just a moment ago.
The Reyes family was still a letdown.
"Heh, the Reyes family really can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear," Luke chuckled, relaxing as he glanced over at Flora through the crowd.
Seeing her still asleep, he couldn't help but laugh, a mix of anger and amusement.
Sleeping at a time like this?
Heh.
Let her sleep.
She won't be sleeping later.
On the track, he planned to make sure she never forgets what happens when you cross him, Luke.
As another member of the Reyes family was defeated and stepped down, dragging the team even lower, the announcer's voice rang out. "Next up, Luke versus Flora."
