Qiann Yan's gaze remained on the boy's face, still lazy in demeanor, his eyes continuously observing the 11 cages covered by black cloth.
But after looking around, he answered, "Number 6."
No one was surprised that he made the decision so quickly, this was A9.
"A9 player, are you sure you choose number 6?"
The boy replied decisively without hesitation, "I'm sure."
The other cages sank into the ground and disappeared, leaving only number 6. The black cloth was slowly lifted, revealing an expected emptiness inside.
"Congratulations, A9 player, you've answered correctly. You are awarded 11,000 points."
The number 6 cage sank into the ground and vanished, and the boy was transported outside the area.
Once again, the sound of flipping cards and selecting players to play echoed, leaving the crowd no time to cheer for the boy, instead filling them with tension.
Any player who hasn't played today might be chosen; it felt like the sound of life and death.
