Chapter 1260
Consul Bennett’s voice choked with emotion.
His eyes were red, his voice trembling.
He truly ached for those kids representing Elyndor on the battlefield of academia.
His words caused the atmosphere in the conference room to grow heavy once
more.
Everyone fell silent.
This was exactly the root of their previous anger.
Yes. The greater good mattered.
But behind the greater good were thirty-five Elyndorian youths, full of pure passion, traveling to a foreign land to win glory for their country.
Ambassador Sterling looked at their somber expressions and suddenly laughed.
He shook his head, his gaze sweeping slowly over the crowd before asking, “Then what do you all think of the Captain of the Elyndor delegation, Serena Lancaster p>
The executives were momentarily stunned.
Quickly, someone spoke up. “Is there even a question? Serena’s abilities are exceptional, and her quick thinking is staggering p>
“Her temperament, her vision, her ability to control the room-she’s top-tier. It goes far beyond what someone her age should be capable of p>
“If it hadn’t been for her at the opening ceremony, Elyndor really would have fallen victim to Severia’s schemes p>
Another chimed in with continuous praise. “Serena perfectly embodied Elyndor’s grace and absolute dominance. Standing out there, it wasn’t even a competition for her-she was single-handedly holding up Elyndor’s dignity p>
For a moment, the conference room was filled with nothing but praise for Serena. Ambassador Sterling listened and slowly nodded.
He looked up at the replay of the opening ceremony on the screen. He watched the slender, graceful girl standing perfectly straight, holding off all of Severia with the presence of an entire army.
He smiled, his tone absolutely certain. “So, as long as she’s there, the pride of the Elyndor delegation will never be tarnished p>
The crowd’s expressions shifted, and they all looked at Serena on the screen.
But someone still couldn’t help but worry. “I admit, Serena is remarkably talented, but no matter how capable she is, or how well she handles pressure, she’s still just a ginin he early twenties p>
“Severia is relentlessly targeting them with zero bottom line. Being isolated and unsupported like this will definitely take a massive toll on the morale of our Flyndo
representatives
Ambassador Sterling didn’t speak. Instead, he raised his hand and pressed the remote again.
The screen shifted, cutting to a playback of the aftermath of the opening ceremony. The camera locked onto the Elyndor team’s rest area.
In the footage, the thirty-five Elyndor representatives looked fired up, their eyes shining brilliantly. Not a single one looked defeated or discouraged by the sabotage.
Sure, they were passionately cursing out Severia in righteous anger.
But more than that, they were practically buzzing with the urge to fight.
It was pure, unadulterated hype.
Their eyes burned bright, and whenever they looked at their Captain, their faces were filled with undeniable awe and trust.
It was as if they were looking at an omnipotent god!
That didn’t look like low morale at all.
That looked like a team that was ready to tear the roof off the place.
Ambassador Sterling pointed at the screen and asked, “Look at them. Does this
look like a team whose morale has been broken p>
The executives stared at the Elyndor representatives, who looked like they had just downed a gallon of adrenaline.
Their morale was through the roof.
Ambassador Sterling said, “You can rest easy. As long as Serena is there, the Elyndor team won’t suffer any losses, and the competitors morale won’t be dented by any of their dirty tricks p>
