The glory of that first-place sea monster now only serves to highlight how utterly defeated it is.

It had never experienced such humiliation in its entire life.

"Don't be discouraged," the octopus-like deep-sea creature beside him comforted him. "This is only the first round; we still have a chance."

Although the octopus head was also unhappy, it was even more unhappy to be defeated by the sea monster that was ranked ahead of it.

In particular, the octopus-like sea monster that resembled it was given the right to announce the results of the competition, and its smug appearance was extremely annoying to it.

If it wins first place, it will have to step on the head of that octopus sea monster to truly shine.

"An opportunity?" The Beast scoffed. "Didn't you see the expressions on the audience's faces? They're all laughing at us!"

It didn't want to be laughed at, especially since the first place winner of the game was a sea monster.

How can a mere sea monster be compared to it!

This is an absolute insult to it!!

This stupid game, I'm not playing it anymore!!!

As the several target deep-sea creatures each had their own thoughts, some preparing for revenge and others ready to give up, a sudden, impassioned shout rang out in the hall.

"Don't give up!" shouted a massive shark. "Aren't you the pride of the deep sea? How can you just leave like this?"

“That’s right!” The sea dragon clan member next to him chimed in, “It’s just one failure. Look at how the A-rank deep-sea clans are all at the top. You S-ranks should really try to prove yourselves. Otherwise, if word gets out, how will you ever be able to stand up in the deep sea again?”

These words seemed to trample on the already shattered self-esteem of the target deep-sea creatures, reducing it to dust.

Seeing this, some of the surrounding deep-sea creatures cheered loudly, encouraging the target deep-sea creature, "Yes, don't give up!"

Some looked doubtful and muttered, "Them? They can't possibly turn things around. I doubt it."

This bizarre encouragement, coupled with the belittling, nearly made the target deep-sea creatures vomit blood.

Indeed, my fighting spirit was ignited, but it was fueled by anger!

“You’re right,” the thorny deep-sea creature gritted its teeth, “I will never admit defeat!”

The other deep-sea creatures nodded in agreement and rallied.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination.

“Come on,” the octopus-like deep-sea creature stretched out its tentacles, “I don’t believe it.”

These deep-sea creatures regained their fighting spirit and straightened their backs once more.

Ais watched all of this with a cold eye, a slight smile playing on her lips.

He turned to look at Yanlin and whispered, "Pururu, this is interesting."

Flame Scale nodded excitedly: "Pfft! The real show has only just begun!" (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
