The storm chaser, the referee, and the crowd all froze at that moment.
"I give up" kept reverberating all around the arena.
No one could believe what was going on. Just a few moments ago, Cole was extremely arrogant and talking down to a senior; then he switched to escaping all around, and now he has suddenly given up.
"Are you sure?" the referee asked again in shock.
But Cole maintained his neutral smile while nodding at the referee.
"Yes, I am."
The referee still hesitated for a bit; in all his days of refereeing, he hadn't experienced anything like that, so he didn't really know how to react.
But after a moment, the referee regained his composure and got ready to announce.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, there you have it, And the winner is Stormchaser again."
The crowd didn't even bother to scream or cheer; they only sat on their seats while staring at what was going on blankly.
