"Nice job, Adrien!", Dalia cheered. "You got this!"

In the Library, the students of Mme. Bustier's class were playing Ultimate Mecha Strike III to tryout for the Paris Ultimate Mecha Strike III Tournament. Currently Adrien and Max were playing while Alya recorded them for her blog.

"Come on, Max", Kim cheer for his best friend.

Marinette then entered the library and saw Alya recording the match.

"What's going on, Alya?" But instead of immediately answering, the blogger shushed her.

"Try-outs for the Paris Ultimate Mecha Strike III Tournament! This school sends the two students with the highest scores!", Alya replied in a softer tone of voice.

"Actually, the tryouts offer a partner to team up with Max in the Tournament", Kim added.

"Why Max?", the bluenette asked.

"Cause he's unbeatable! He's a total rocksord! He's got the highest APM over anyone!", the jock said.

"APM?", Marinette said dumbly.

"It's actions per minute, Dumbo", Jamie said butting into the conversation. "I thought you'd know that unless you stopped practicing everything I taught you."

"Shut up, Jamie", Marinette muttered.

"Anyways this tournament is his whole life! He's been grinding all year to level up", Kim said.

On the screen, Adrien's robot, NAD03, used his special attack on Max's robot, MX-01. MX-01 was then crushed and NAD03 wins the battle.

"Adrien is now in the lead", Mme. Bustier announced as both she and Mr. Damocles recorded the results.

"What happened, Max?", Kim asked his best friend in disbelief.

"Hmm", Max said dejectedly but put on a brave face. "Awesome job. We're gonna make a killer combo."

"Good job Adrien", Dalia commended him.

"Thanks Dali", he replied with a smile.

"So let me get this straight. If someone manages to beat Max's score, they'll team up with Adrien at the tournament?", Marinette asked.

Kim scoffed. "No one can beat Max. Or rather Max and Adrien. It's a slam dunk. They're our school's dream team!"

Jamie then grabbed Marinette by her hand, dragged her to a bookshelf and shoved her against it.

"I know where you're going with this, tramp", Jamie hissed. "Don't you fvcking dare pick up that controller and play that game."

"Why do you care? Is it because I'm competition for your precious Dalia?", Marinette retorted.

"Child please. She beat your a$$ as soon as he laid his eyes on her and it's not just Dalia. It's Max as well", Jamie sneered. "This game is really important to Max and if you play right now, you'll rob him of the chance he's been practicing for. So for once, think about someone else besides your entitled attention-seeking self, Marinette."

Marinette thought about what Jamie said for a second until Mr. Damocles made an announcement.

"Well, I think we have our two champions lined up for the Paris tournament", he said in which everyone congratulated Adrien and Max.

"Wait! Uh, Is it too late... to try out?", the bluenette asked as she shoved Jamie off of her and scrambled to the front causing everyone to gasp.

'Why that little...', Jamie fumed glaring fiercely at the latter.
