Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 96 The Bottle Picking Game

During the last Moon Festival, Casey faced punishment.

This time, all the members of the dance club would participate in the bottle picking game to help Casey secure first place and use the medal to lift her punishment. However, they were not the only ones interested in the medal.

The senior from the tennis club who had previously helped Violeta investigate backend data also had her eyes on the medal.

The reason was that her boyfriend also needed to remove his punishment.

Having previously assisted Violeta, the senior now sought Violeta's help to participate in the game and pick bottles together.

The more people picking bottles, the higher the chances of winning.

Even though Violeta and the senior were not in the same club, Violeta decided to participate because the senior had aided her before. The members of the dance club somehow discovered that Violeta would also be participating in the game.

They were determined to surpass Violeta!

The afternoon activities commenced.

Many small stalls were neatly set up in the open space downstairs.

The stalls offered various items for exchange.

It resembled a small market, and soon a crowd gathered around the stalls.

Some people even held books or figurines in their hands...

After the stalls were set up, registration for the bottle picking game began.

Violeta and Kaylee went to the registration area together and were assigned to the senior's group.

While filling out the registration form, a large group of people from the dance club approached them.

The student council members in charge of the game handed them the registration forms.

The student who was filling out the form in front saw the large group of people from the dance club approaching. They all made way for them, and some felt pessimistic. "There are so many of them. They're going to win this, no questions asked."
