Chapter 1230
“I am putting this on the record right now. Without concrete evidence, a single anonymous letter means nothing p>
“No one gets to casually smear my Elyndorian students p>
Seeing the Elyndorian team standing united and immovable, Phelps immediately fanned the flames. “Chief Arbiter, look how arrogant they’re being. They’re definitely hiding something p>
“If they were innocent, why would they fight so hard to stop a simple search p>
“I bet Serena Lancaster is in there disposing of the drugs right now p>
“Every second you waste is just helping her cheat p>
Voss was already embarrassed by Caleb’s verbal beatdown. Driven by a mix of shame and rage, he waved his hand aggressively. “Security! Drag these arrogant kids out of the way! If they resist, write them up for obstructing tournament proceedings p>
The burly security guards lunged forward, roughly grabbing at Lydia Brooks and Caleb Sommers.
Lydia clung to the doorframe, tears welling in her eyes, but she gritted her teeth and refused to yield. “You can’t go in p>
Caleb braced himself, taking the brunt of the physical force.
But in the end, they were just students.
They were no match for grown, professional muscle.
In seconds, the two were violently yanked away from the door.
Seeing this, the rest of the Elyndorian team panicked and rushed forward to help.
But no matter how youthful and spirited they were, they were academics and researchers. Their physical strength was limited. They were easily overpowered.
“Thud p>
“Ugh p>
Cries of shock and muffled groans echoed down the hall.
Students were shoved aside, stumbling to the floor. Skin scraped against the carpet.
Someone slammed shoulder-first into the wall, turning pale from the pain.
Another hit the floor hard, blood seeping through their jeans at the knee.
Just as the tournament security pulled out breaching tools, preparing to smash the door in, a thunderous voice echoed down the hall.
“Stop p>
Everyone froze and turned around.
Marching down the corridor was Chairman Moore, flanked by dozens of men in sharp black suits.
His expression was murder, his aura completely suffocating.
Upon closer inspection, a thin layer of cold sweat coated his forehead.
He had been downstairs handling some arrangements for Miss Serena when the lobby manager had rushed over in a panic, reporting that tournament officials were forcibly invading the top floor. Chairman Moore nearly had a heart attack.
That was Miss Serena’s suite!
These suicidal fools were actually trying to smash down the big boss’s door p>
Furious, Moore barked a command. “Take them all down p>
His bodyguards were highly trained professionals. In a blur of motion, they swarmed
the tournament security, effortlessly pinning them to the floor.
The situation reversed in the blink of an eye.
The previously arrogant officials were now eating carpet.
Voss’s face twitched violently, his chest heaving with rage.
But considering Chairman Moore’s absolute dominance in Severia, he was forced to swallow his anger. His arrogant tone completely vanished Chairman… Chairman Moore
He forced a painful, awkward smile. “What is the meaning of this p>
“You misunderstand the situation p>
“We aren’t here to cause trouble for your hotel p>
“This is tournament protocol. We received a highly credible report regarding a competitor possessing, banned substances, so we had to conduct an emergency sweep.
