In SEEDZ's dorm, except for Mr. Big News and Adrian, the group members were also watching Work'aTon Reborn's first episode.

[Navin: Oooppsss...]

Xi Huan immediately recognized the move that Adrian had just copied and pointed at the screen.

"Adiri has no originality!"

Onscreen, Mr. Big News seemed to have expected it to happen as he perfectly caught the next food bullet that Adrian hurled toward him.

Meanwhile, the others either failed to catch or were late in throwing their next food. They were too dumbfounded by Adrian's deliberate mistake and his cute act afterwards. Even the fans in the comment section were similarly dumbfounded.

– What the hell was that?

– I didn't know such a shameless move could exist.

– Still, no one could deny that Navin looked so cute earlier.

...

Just then, a click sounded from the dorm's entrance, catching the attention of the people watching in the living room. Rayen and the two youngest members had just arrived home from Gyeongwon Affiliated High School.

"You're back, Rayeye, Haruru, Ajiji!"

"Yeah..." Rayen replied.

Xi Huan, as well as the others' complexion, was a great contrast to that of the three of them. They definitely had it better than they did.

"Your side seems—"

"Don't talk about it. I don't want to hear it."

Just remembering the day's events made Rayen's head throb in pain. Liam took it upon himself to shut Xi Huan up by covering her mouth.

Rayen tiredly walked toward them and slumped down on the couch. "What are you watching?"

As soon as he glanced at the screen, he immediately recognized the logo of the show.

"Work'aTon Reborn"

The corners of Rayen's mouth twitched.

'Is it already time for its release?'

Nevertheless, he still continued to watch the show. Meanwhile, Xu Jiji and Yeo Haru decided to return to their rooms. Their backs were hunched as though they were zombies roaming the building.

Rayen ignored the two, focusing on watching the show.

Currently, it was the first round that made the corners of Rayen's mouth twitch further.

Just like how he remembered it, the round was complete chaos.

Starting with the other group's mistake, Adrian quickly reacted.

Earlier, Adrian did that because he couldn't afford to let Mr. Big News catch every piece of food. Adrian wasn't confident about scoring higher than Mr. Big News.

He didn't expect that his act would also rattle the other groups.

It was a good outcome, though. Even though he sabotaged Mr. Big News, their team was still ahead of the others.

And so, after the first oopsie that Adrian made, he tossed the next batch of food hurriedly. The food flew toward Mr. Big News like bullets from a machine gun, which Mr. Big News easily caught while squatting.

Finally, the other groups recovered and resumed their actions.

The camera focused on the scene of Mr. Big News frantically trying to catch everything. His forehead was covered in sweat.

The editor also did a good job. They made the scene dramatic with their collection of sound and visual effects. It was just like a scene from a shounen manga where the main character produced a barrage of attacks.

[Navin: Ratatatatatatatata!]

[Big Newz jujutsu! Whoosh whoosh!]

Mr. Big News tried his best to catch up with the rapid firing from Adrian. Their score immediately skyrocketed.

Now that they were quite ahead, Adrian decided that it was enough. Every throw that he sent next to Mr. Big News was all on tricky angles.

The other teams also realized Adrian's thoughts.

They could only choose from two options here.

First, they could try to sabotage their teammate as well, so even if their team loses, they wouldn't be the ones who would be punished. However, this came with a repercussion. If they actively sabotage their teammate, the latter could also do the same.

Secondly, they just had to try their best to win. This was simpler, but of course, they were just humans. They wouldn't be able to perfectly catch every piece of food sent their way.

But the Rats would be better off since they have better physiques and reflexes. If their turn to catch the food while squatting came, the Rats wouldn't be able to ensure they would win against the Badgers.

And so, most of the Badgers chose the first option.

But ultimately, the winner of the first part of the first round was SEEDZ.

The moment the camera panned to Mr. Big News, his face was entirely red. He was huffing and breathing so hard, it seemed like he would explode any moment. His sleeveless tank top was tightly clinging to his skin, revealing the sculpted figure underneath the fabric.

It was truly a feast for the eyes.

– Mr. Big News definitely worked hard. Look at his sweat.

– This is blatant power tripping!

– Who cares? It's worth it (drooling emoji)

– It's worth it +1

– It's worth it +2

– Thank you, SEEDZ's leader, for such a gift! (thumbs up)

– I hope Big Newz will reveal his workout routine after this...

Still, the show wasn't yet ending. The second part of the first round finally came.

It was now the Badgers' turn to squat.

Knees bent, the second part began. The camera panned over the faces of the rats, each of their eyes gleaming with light.

Once the bell sounded, the atmosphere immediately changed.

[Revenge time!]

Just as expected, a few of the Rats immediately started with the sabotage. The Badgers couldn't help but grimace.

However...

"If you don't throw it properly, I'll secretly sneak in Rayen's dish in your dinner tomorrow," Adrian exclaimed toward Mr. Big News.

"....." Rayen onscreen, who was just standing on the corner silently.

"....." Rayen, who was just watching on the sofa.

– lololol

– What good blackmail material!

– Nice! +1 villain point for Navin!

Out of fear, Mr. Big News could only try his best. Adrian also did his best to try to catch everything while remaining in a squatting posture.

He could catch most of them too. After all, he was just lazy, not clumsy.

Following Adrian's example, blackmail words from the other teams immediately filled the room.

"Yuu, I will definitely remember this!" Vee said while making a slitting throat gesture.

"If you don't throw it well, I'll hide all of your socks!" Ty said to Kevin.

"Brother, this is just a game!" RX said after also getting blackmailed by Kang Dongju.

"What game?! I'll tell Mama to give you the bathroom duty if we lose because of you!"

"Nooo!!!"

Of course, there were a few exceptions — Mr. Big News and Han Daon.

The two people looked at each other wryly.

But unlike Mr. Big News, who was being threatened, Han Daon wasn't doing this out of fear.

Actually, out of everyone, ALTAIR's team was the most harmonious. Earlier, Choi Jiho didn't try to sabotage Han Daon, so Han Daon also didn't do anything shady out of respect for his brother leader.

However...

Even though Han Daon was doing his best to throw the food carefully so that Choi Jiho could catch it, every throw failed — no, to be more precise, every catch failed.

When the camera panned over toward Choi Jiho, the audience was left speechless.

– What is Jiho doing?

– I already expected it...

– TT our clumsy leader... Noooo!!! Please don't show it anymore! Preserve our leader's dignity!
