Chapter 617


    There are about fifty indirect descendants of the Turmann family, and only those in the top ten list of


    roboticpetitions could sit and dine with the direct descendants.


    So the roboticpetition became the only chance for the indirect descendants to be somebody.


    Many people stood nervously under the stage.


    Because of therge number of participants, they would be divided into groups by ballot andpete


    for one-on-one.


    Since the total number was even, each groupprised two people.


    Nicole sat on the judges'' bench, nked by Eber and Elijah, both of whom were sitting precariously


    looking down at rings with a very serious look on their faces.


    There were five rings; one main ring and four sub-rings.


    Each had a mechanical barrier around to prevent people from being identally harmed outside the


    ring.


    There was arge screen that broadcasted the roboticbat live and disyed the data analysis.


    Everyone waited with great excitement for Elijah to announce the start of the draw.


    Merry''s expression remained unchanged; she kept looking at the entrance of the venue as if waiting for


    someone to arrive.


    Atst, she saw the door slowly open as Jared and Janus walked in.


    The moment she saw Jared, her face glowed.She straightened her back reservedly, making her stand


    out from the crowd.


    But Jared did not even spare a nce at her but looked straight at Nicole with a smile.


    Janus was standing aside with tablets that had records of the data of the first and second generations


    ofbat, ready to record all the data that would appear and surpass thebat data of the previous


    two generations.


    Merry looked at Jared with an almost unstoppable sh of resentment in her eyes.She then looked at


    Nicole, who was sitting on the bench, and said coldly to Elijah, ''I wonder what makes her qualify to be a


    judge."


    Elijah frowned at Merry, who was filled with resentment.


    "Nicole is capable of it."


    Merry sneered and looked around.


    "Who here can prove that she can be our judge?"


    Elijah''s face sank.


    But Merry was not afraid of him.She craned her neck to look at Nicole beside Jared, the jealousy in her


    eyes so apparent as if she was to cut Nicole into pieces.


    Nicole''s expression remained unchanged.


    Just as Elijah wanted to say something, she stopped him and looked at the people who did not think


    she was qualified to be a judge.


    "How do you want me to prove it?"


    Merry saw her take the bait and was secretly delighted.


    She maintained a bitter tone of voice as she said, "Youe topete with us, take part in the draw;


    thepetition is absolutely fair.We can all see if you are qualified to be a judge and an agent for the


    Turmann family."


    Jared looked at Merry, his eyes sharp as if a sword pierced through the foolhardy woman across from


    him.


    But Nicole gently squeezed the palm of his hand, signaling him to stay calm.


    "Why not?"

    Nicole said, letting out a half-smile, not pretending but still looking as pure as the frost and snow.


    "I''llpete with you all in the ring."


    Elijah''s eyes sparkled upon hearing this.


    Nicole left the bench at once without giving Elijah time to think.


    Carl clenched his fists as he looked at Nicole.


    There was nothing more exciting than watching otherspeting on the same stage with Nicole.


    Nicole looked at this group of people and walked casually into it, then quietly looked at Elijah on the


    other side.


    Seeing that she had indeed made up her mind, Elijah smiled and announced that the draw had begun.
