Of course, it was also possible that the coordination between Classes B, C, and D had not yet fully taken shape.
And the following developments were more or less exactly as expected.
In the first compulsory event, the 100-meter sprint, Class A had held an advantage of around ten points over the other classes. But after the 200-meter sprint, hurdles, three-legged race, and obstacle race, Class A's score was gradually suppressed, while Class B's score began to rise sharply.
Even with four important seed competitors having been drawn away, Class B's results were climbing rapidly.
This increase was clearly the result of coordination between Classes C and D. Whenever a Class B student competed, the students from Classes C and D would yield, ensuring that Class B students could at least place third or fourth and earn points.
It could be said that Class A was now directly facing off against Classes B, C, and D.
The score gap between the Red and White teams in the center of the field was also gradually beginning to reveal an advantage.
Red team (Classes A and D) vs. White team (Classes B and C)
3232 points vs. 3490 points
One side had begun to take the lead.
They had now reached the sixth of the eight compulsory events.
The boys had just finished an intense pole-knocking contest, while the girls had completed the ball-throwing event.
Next came the two remaining compulsory events: tug-of-war and cavalry battle, separated by gender.
The men's and women's tug-of-war events were competitions divided by major team and gender.
That meant the girls of the Red team would face the girls of the White team.
So Class A's girls were now standing together with Class D's girls.
"Looks like our luck isn't great."
"Neither side has an advantage
