Chapter 914
In the end, the Dream Squad was utterly defeated.
Jack's speed was lightning-fast. His moves were brutal, and his techniques were ruthless. Every action was precise, with no wasted motion. The onlookers were stunned and in awe.
"Damn it!"
When the screen turned black and the white flag went up, Cornelius was so furious he almost jumped out of his seat. He slammed his headset onto the table in a fit of rage.
As a regular and ace player at the Galaxy Jockeys Cafe, Cornelius had hardly ever lost a game here. But today, Jack had defeated him with his skills, leaving him completely humiliated.
What made it even worse for Cornelius was that not only had he lost, but he had been crushed so badly that it felt like he'd been toyed with.
The most humiliating part? He lost in just ten minutes.
It was almost impossible to believe. In the world of competitive esports, it was unheard of for a match to be decided so quickly-especially not with such a one- sided defeat.
And to top it off, it had all happened in front of a live audience, turning Cornelius into the unwitting creator of a disgraceful new record.
Standing behind Jack, Wilhelmina was visibly uncomfortable, her face fluctuating between shades of blue and purple. She had always looked down on Jack, convinced they came from completely different worlds. To her, Jack was worthless, and she had longed for Cornelius and the others to humiliate him.
But the reality was that Jack had just defeated Cornelius, someone whom she had thought was unbeatable. And he had done it in such an effortlessly powerful, smooth manner that she couldn't believe her eyes.
Jack's playstyle was so clean and decisive. Cornelius barely had time to retaliate, and his defeat was nothing short of humiliating.
The fact that the match ended in 10 minutes might very well have set a new record, for the fastest loss by a player of this rank. And that record was set by none other than the person Wilhelmina had the least respect for.
Despite her deep bias against Jack, Wilhelmina had no choice but to admit that
his mastery of "World Empire" was at an almost otherworldly level.
Recalling her earlier sneers, Wilhelmina couldn't help but feel a flush of embarrassment. But she quickly reassured herself that Jack had only won by
chance.
Cornelius had split his forces to harass, which slowed his own development, allowing Jack to seize the opportunity. In the next round,

win.
he would definitely win!
"Let's go again. Best of three!" Cornelius said with frustration, his face burning with shame.
Cornelius had tried to humiliate Jack, but now, he had been embarrassed in front of everyone. He couldn't just accept that.
"Alright! I'm in, Just don't start crying
'min
when you lose." Neil's large frame shook with laughter. He had been
worried about losing earlier, but
seeing Jack's overwhelming performance had given hig

newfound confidence.
With Jack on their side, plus reinforcements from Charlotte and Zane, they had nothing to fear from taking down the Dream Squad.
As both sides settled back into their seats, the second round began. The crowd, now on edge, was eager for the next match.
Many initially thought Jack's team would be crushed. However, most still hoped for Jack to thoroughly defeat the Dream Squad.
The conversation earlier had made it clear that the Dream Squad's arrogant behavior had rubbed many the wrong way. It was time someone put them in their place.
