Xiong Ying High School's Sports Festival was not only a major event for the school, but it was also a celebration for the national media and people. Apart from the media that chased after the hot news and the ordinary people who released their passion, the Sports Festival was also a major way for large companies and professional agents to find business opportunities and talents, as well as professional heroes to find targets to nurture.
For the professional heroes who graduated from Xiong Ying High School, the Sports Festival was their first public appearance. It was even the beginning of many people's path to becoming a professional hero.
Therefore, performance at the Sports Festival was equally important for Xiong Ying's students.
Cymbidium Japonicum's grandfather and parents had graduated from Xiong Ying High School. Her grandfather had graduated from the Hero Science Course, and her parents had studied Business Course. Every year, they paid attention to their alma mater's Sports Festival. This year, their daughter was going to compete, so they paid extra attention.
"Mom and I will be there to see your performance." Tatsuya Kizuki was a tall middle-aged man. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and a suit. He looked like he was good at calculation. "Perform well, but don't be too nervous."
Maiko Kanetsuki was a petite blonde beauty. She was now a professional hero agent. When she spoke, she had a capability that was different from her appearance. "Perform well. It's best if you shine. Seize the opportunity. Mom will definitely make you the most popular professional hero." With that said, she hugged Cymbidium Japonicum tightly.
"I don't want to be 'made'. Real heroes are popular because they can bring a sense of security to the people. They are not packaged with tricks," Cymbidium Japonicum muttered softly.
"What did you say?" Maiko Kanetsuki straightened her back and narrowed her eyes at her daughter.
"I said thank you, Mom. I will definitely work hard!"
Maiko Kanetsuki reached out and rubbed Cymbidium Japonicum's head. "Good girl." Then, she casually asked, "I remember that you are in the same class as Fire Hero Andwa's son. How is he?"
"Student Hong … His personality is very strong, but I can't really describe it. Oh, he's very quiet and seems very cold." Cymbidium Japonicum recalled their limited interactions. "His words are a little confusing."
"This kind of personality …" Maiko Kanetsuki was deep in thought. "Actually, he's quite popular. But if he's like his father, it'll be bad …"
Sure enough, you guys were there to look for business opportunities, not to see my performance.
The Cymbidium Japonicum puffed up its cheeks.
"I wonder if there are any eye-catching inventions from the Auxiliary Department this year." Tatsuya Kizuki did not notice his daughter's expression and said in a low voice, "We have to pay attention to the students in the Business Studies Department too."
Maiko Kanetsuki suddenly raised her head and glared at her husband angrily. "Don't you dare snatch the business student that I have my eyes on this year."
Tatsuya Kizuki did not have the slightest bit of grace. "What do you mean by 'snatching'? We used the treatment and future development to let them choose for themselves. They chose me."
Here we go again …
Cymbidium Japonicum looked at her parents who were like fighting cocks. She was speechless and pressed her temples.
Hideki Watsuki sat in a quiet room and drank tea. He waved at Cymbidium Japonicum.
"Grandpa." Cymbidium Japonicum sat beside her grandfather with grievance. She acted coquettishly for a while before talking about business.
"Xiongying's sports festival has different events every year, but the final is always a 1v1 elimination match." Hideki Watsuki said with a nostalgic expression, "The third grade is actually the most popular class every year. But because of the USJ incident this year, the first grade Class A will definitely be the focus of attention."
Students who had already fought with real enemies … Probably everyone wanted to know what kind of power they could show and how big the gap was.
"Just because we fought with the enemy?" Cymbidium Japonicum still could not understand this gap. "No matter what, I will perform well and do my best."
Hideki Watsuki looked at his granddaughter with gratification.
"But …" Cymbidium Japonicum suddenly lowered her head and stared at the teacup on the tea table with a conflicted expression. "I want to know how far I can go without relying on my 'ability.'" She looked up at her grandfather, then immediately lowered her head and said as if talking to herself, "My 'ability' can disappear at any time and change into a new ability at any time. I have a feeling that it doesn't belong to me, so I …"
A large hand suddenly pressed down on the back of her head. Cymbidium Japonicum heard her grandfather's old but powerful voice. "Just walk the path you choose well."
"Leave no regrets."
Leave no regrets.
Cymbidium Japonicum clenched her fists.

But when it really came to the competition, Cymbidium Japonicum found that she could not be capricious and not use her ability.
She successfully passed the first obstacle race's preliminaries and saw the second race's event — horse riding.
This was a team competition. When everyone used their abilities to cooperate, if she insisted on not using her abilities, she would be irresponsible to the team.
Cymbidium Japonicum instantly made a decision and locked onto the person she wanted to team up with.
Cymbidium Japonicum walked up to the fierce-looking Explode and shamelessly recommended herself. "Explode -san, please team up with me."
"Huh?" The powerful Explode was already surrounded by many people who wanted to team up with him. When they saw Cymbidium Japonicum, they were a bit surprised.
"My attack power is not very strong, but I can flexibly create obstacles and confuse the enemy. I'm more suited to be a 'horse.'" Cymbidium Japonicum clenched her fists and looked Explode in the eye. "And teaming up with the strong is the best way to win."
"Me too," Sharo Sejima said confidently.
Explode seemed to have thought of a good plan, and the corner of his mouth pulled up into a sinister smile.
While the others were still struggling to choose their teammates, the four members of Explode's team were quickly formed: Explode, Sharo Sejima, Cymbidium Japonicum, and Setsuru Fanta.
The discussion time was only fifteen minutes, and it was almost halfway through. Cymbidium Japonicum looked at the noisy scene and took a deep breath.
"I need to make some preparations," Cymbidium Japonicum pulled out the shapeshifting device from the collar of her sports uniform and held it in her hands.
It's nothing, everything is for the sake of victory.
If I could temporarily leave now, I would definitely choose to shapeshift in the toilet.
But …
"Please forgive me for using this method to be chivalrous." Cymbidium Japonicum made up her mind and held the shapeshifting device tightly with both hands.
A dazzling golden light emerged from between her fingers, and a cool breeze blew her hair. She slowly floated into the air amidst the golden light and the cool breeze.
"What is that? It's Kizuki!" Mike's voice rang out along with the bright light in the stadium. "What is she doing?"
Melodious music began to play, and shining rose petals flew out from the ball of light.
The players in the stadium and the audience in the stadium looked at Cymbidium Japonicum in surprise as she slowly rose into the air. They looked around for the source of the ethereal music.
"Kizuki is floating. Is she dancing … What the hell is going on!" Mike's surprised voice echoed in the stadium. "This, this is too unexpected. She is changing! Is she shapeshifting? "
Of course!
So, keep your voice down!
Cymbidium Japonicum couldn't wait to fly out and cover Mike's mouth, but she still couldn't control herself and did two consecutive twirls in the air.
"Kizuki did two consecutive twirls in the air without any leverage! High, high difficulty! "
"Her costume changed!"
"A hat appeared in her hand! Am I the only one who saw the rose petals? "
