But Bianca White didn’t expect that Wendy Tierney had no intention of making a move against July Quinn; instead, she put away the potion, and said with a sigh:
"Alas, if you don’t act, then I can only watch July Quinn take four gold medals."
Wendy Tierney noticed Bianca White’s paused silhouette from the corner of her eye, and continued.
"However, it’s not so bad for me. After all, I’m currently serving the Vanguard Corps in Aethelgard, so I won’t need to return home anytime soon and witness July Quinn being celebrated like a star. But you remain in The Keaton Family’s Vanguard Corps with July Quinn. By then, comparisons between the two of you will be inevitable."
"By the way, the Flare Team selects a seed player from the All-round Competition each year. I think this year, with July Quinn winning four gold medals in one go, she is bound to be the chosen seed player."
Bianca White had heard what Wendy Tierney said before.
Originally, she also hoped to stand out in the All-round Competition to see if she could join that esteemed Flare Team.
But all her hopes were dashed with July Quinn’s repeated gold medal victories.
Is Wendy Tierney really planning to not act against July Quinn?
And can she truly sit back and watch July Quinn become celebrated like a star?
Bianca White hadn’t yet weighed the answers in her heart when Wendy Tierney also stood up, ready to leave the bar.

As Wendy Tierney walked toward the bar exit, Bianca White could no longer restrain the devil inside her and called out to her.
In the instant Bianca White called her, Wendy Tierney’s lips curled into a smile unseen in the corner...
Meanwhile, in another corner booth of the bar—
July Quinn was sipping a drink, as the blond, blue-eyed man across from her reported some information.
"Two thousand Golden Kapok Cards were issued this year, with Angela Bank releasing them externally..."
July Quinn, with her eyes slightly closed, it was unclear whether she was absorbing it all.
When the man’s report was nearly complete, July Quinn finally spoke: "How’s the construction of Golden Kapok Academy going?"
"It’ll officially open next spring, and there’ll be a Golden Kapok Scholarship Gold Award set up in your name."
Golden Kapok Academy was planned by July Quinn as a postgraduate investment founded domestically, and it already boasts top-tier faculty resources.
When this news reached home, it caused quite a stir.
Many prestigious students hoped to continue their studies at Golden Kapok Academy, especially those from high society.
Because they have gotten inside information that the Academy is backed by the Angela Club, which brings together all top circles of Aethelgard’s elite.
Being able to study at this academy could equate to opening up connections in Aethelgard, which would undoubtedly benefit future career development.
"Uh-huh, set the scholarship amount higher and raise the threshold a bit."
After discussing various other projects, when their conversation was about wrapped up, Roman Kidd and his assistant manager also entered the bar.
However, unlike others who come to this bar for drinks or fun, Roman Kidd was here solely to recruit an outstanding member for the Flare Team.
Indeed, this year’s sole spot fell on July Quinn, who scored perfect tens in two consecutive shooting events.
Hence, Roman Kidd’s presence at the bar was based on information from Thomas Grant and others, knowing that July Quinn was currently there.
"Where’s July Quinn?" Roman Kidd disliked the dark and noisy atmosphere of bars, with his brows slightly furrowed.
Following the direction indicated by his assistant manager, Roman Kidd saw July Quinn engrossed in conversation with a foreigner...
