Chapter 1843
"That''s right. This year''spetition feels more professional," Wayneined.
Bradley tagged along as an extra and said indifferently, "It doesn''t matter if we win or lose. I''m fine as
long as we get to see Nicolepete."
Nicole''s skill was obviously better than Ryder''s. It was up to Nicole whether they could beat Northon
Institute. He said, "Hopefully Nicole could help Royal Creek Institute win first ce."
Every student defeated by Northon Institute had the same anticipation. At this moment, the rest of the
participants entered the second round of thepetition. Three-quarters of the contestants were
eliminated in the first round of thepetition. There were only thirty-plus people left for the second
round.
Thepetition format was a one-to-one battle. Two peoplepeted to see who was quicker to
break through the program created by the organizer. These kinds ofpetitions were rather worth
watching. After all, the judge of this round was the one who designed the program.
"The programmer for today is the director of the International Hackers'' Alliance. He''s also the
webmaster of thergest hacking website locally and internationally, The Hunters. Let''s wee him
as the judge of ourpetition!"
Everyone familiar withputers shot admiring nces once they heard that it was the webmaster of
The Hunters. It was a known fact that the webmaster of The Hunters was a top-notch hacker, ranked
fifth on The Hunters'' international leaderboard.
This international hackingpetition was indeed extraordinary. The organizers even got an
international-level judge to host thepetition.
Ryder''s eyes were sparkling. It had been Gary and his lifelong wish to enter the top ten international
hacker leaderboard. They both have an ount on The Hunters, but their ranking was not even in the
top hundred. Ryder was thrilled to be able to meet the fifth-ranked top yer.
"I never expected to meet the webmaster of The Hunters here. The fifth-ranked top hacker! This
competition is worth the trip," Ryder eximed.
Gary felt embarrassed as Ryder stared at the fifth-ranked top yer intently. He thought, ''Would Ryder
pass out from excitement if he knew the number one yer on the international hacker leaderboard
was right beside him? Besides that, he has personally given out topics to her before.''
Ryder did not know Gary''s thoughts and thought, ''I have to perform wellter to get his attention.''

Gary coughed dryly and muttered under his breath, "I don''t need him to notice me..."
It was already good that Nicole had noticed him. At this time, the host had finished his opening speech.
The participants paired up and sat face-to-face in front of theputers. Zeke sat at the table next to
Nicole.
Before thepetition started, Zeke could not resist asking Nicole, "I never expected you to attend this
competition."
It was merely apetition for high school and university students, but Nicole attended it. She should
not be interested in it at all. Nicole smiled and replied, "You didn''te here by choice either, right?"
Zeke instantly understood her. It seemed like Nicole''s teacher had forced her to join. During his first
time, he was forced to attend as no one in the ss was willing to participate. However, he became the
center of attention after being in a match against the Finley brothers. Otherwise, he would have never
exposed his identity. He had no advantages after his identity was exposed since he offended quite a
few people during the past missions.
"Aren''t you scared of being exposed?" Zeke looked at Nicole worriedly.
Nicole smiled, "The truth wille to light sooner orter."
Nicole was rather optimistic about it. Although she wanted to hide her identity, she was also prepared
to be exposed. "I''m here today to represent the school. I have no intention of exposing too much. Let''s
just take it easy."
