Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 247 Trying Traditional Outfits

Thankfully, Kaylee intervened, preventing Hattie from succeeding in her deceitful scheme once again. It's possible her score could keep increasing until surpassing Violeta's. Following this round, only Violeta and another guy remained as competitors.

The guy aimed to answer thirty questions accurately, so he had to persist in the competition.

In contrast, Violeta appeared somewhat indifferent. Checking the scoreboard, she had amassed 52 points already.

It remained unclear if anyone could outpace her later, but at the moment, she felt fatigued and desired a break.

"Sir, I need a break," Violeta stated.

The owner responded, "You want to rest? Of course, how about you?"

The other guy still needed to answer thirty questions to win a rabbit lamp for his girlfriend.

"I'll keep going," he declared.

The owner nodded. "Since we don't have enough players for three rounds now, I'll go recruit more students for the third round. So, this young man will proceed to the next round, and Violeta, you can take a break. If you choose to return in the afternoon, we can tally your score and session."

According to the game rule, points accumulated from previous rounds would carry over as long as there were no incorrect answers or forfeits.

Violeta nodded in agreement, saying, "Alright."

She correctly answered eleven questions, earning two portions of snacks as a reward.

However, if she accepted the snacks now, the answers she had already provided would not count toward her total score, so Violeta chose not to claim the prize.
