Aside from Selene, the other three members could barely stand, their legs turning to jelly.

They watched Flora climb the steps, her body shaking more violently with each step, almost gasping for air.

There was no mistaking it! She was the woman from the island!

Flora's features were generally soft, but it was her eyes that stood out. Half-lidded, they had a wild, reckless glint. Without a mask, people would take in her whole face, but with it on, those eyes were simply mesmerizing!

Those unforgettable eyes...

"Ah-"

A girl from the medical team, seeing Flora get closer, let out a piercing scream, stumbling back and falling to the ground.

She shook uncontrollably!

Seeing Flora brought back the gruesome image of Susan...

This woman was a demon!

She was the devil!

"What's happening?"

The crowd below exchanged confused looks, just as baffled as the online viewers.

What was up with the medical team?

Why were they acting like they'd seen a ghost?

Mr. Atticus was just as puzzled, even embarrassed by their behavior. He stood up and walked over, intending to get to the bottom of it. But as he got closer and saw Flora's face clearly, he froze. It was as if his feet were nailed to the ground. He couldn't move an inch.

He just stared at Flora, at the eyes above her mask.

A chill swept through him, seeping into every pore, making him shiver uncontrollably.

It really was her...

The woman from the island...

"Contestant, are you feeling unwell?" The host, snapping out of his shock, asked, "Can you continue the competition?"

"I can't! I'm not competing!"

The girl was almost in tears. Compete against Flora?

Did she have a death wish?

Even Mr. Atticus had been utterly defeated, and Susan had been killed

by her. The image of blooded

Susan was still fresh in her

She didn't want to end up like that.

"I-I-I won't compete either!"

Aside from Selene, the other three contestants from the medical team chimed in hastily, speaking so fast they nearly bit their tongues.

Sure, backing out last minute was embarrassing, but it was better than losing their lives.

Especially after seeing Flora, fear wrapped around them like a net, leaving them unable to think.

They had only one thought!

Get away!

The farther from this woman, the better!

After speaking, they scrambled down the stairs, like they were being chased by ghosts.

Their actions left everyone dumbfounded.

Not competing?

The competition hadn't even started yet.

What was wrong with the medical team?

"I feel like... they're scared of Flora..."

"I had the same terrifying thought... They seemed to back out after seeing Flora. Is she really that intimidating?"

In the audience, all the students

bet

from the University of Maple Grove

looked visibly shocked, and the

online viewers went wild, flooding

the chat with comments.

Everyone wondered if the medical team had suddenly lost their minds.

But deep down, they were also curious why the medical team was so afraid of Flora.

With the medical team's sudden withdrawal, the University of Maple Grove won by default.

"Flora, did they forfeit because of

you?" Dr. Ray was still in a daze, unable to grasp what had happened with the medical team, but he had a gut feeling it was all about Flora.
