“Actually, Andrew secured it for me,” Madisyn replied with a resigned smile.

Andrew had been concerned she might replace the assigned room uncomfortable, so he had passed her the keycard.

Initially, Madisyn hadn’t intended to use it, but the encounter with the arrogant Mafelen contestants changed her plans.

“Alright, you start unpacking,” Lynda instructed, her expression turning serious.

“I’ll go over the competition details with you later.

With the competition on the line, they quickly unpacked their luggage.

Gathering on the sofa, they listened intently to Lynda’s analysis.

This time, the fiercest competitors came from Mafelen.

The international competition had consistently taken place in Mafelen over the last few years due to the strength of their contestants.

Most judges were also from Mafelen, inherently tilting the scales against Lorpond contestants.

“Given that many judges are from Mafelen, they might favor their own.

We’ll have to excel to really stand out and secure our spot,” Lynda said gravely.

“Among the Mafelen contestants, the two we’ve just met are exceptionally formidable.

The blonde woman is Julie Hopkins.

She placed tenth last year and is likely to be in the top three this time.

The silent woman beside her is a mixed-race dancer named Anna Murray.

She’s our biggest threat.

Though she didn’t compete Last year due to health reasons, she’s a dance prodigy who gained fame early.

She’s a likely candidate for this year’s champion.

Lynda then showed a video of Anna dancing.

Everyone watched, their concern deepening.

Anna was obviously a leading competitor.

She excelled in both improvisational and traditional dance styles, moving with a distinctive presence.

Her slightly disdainful gaze, as though nothing much mattered to her, enhanced her mysterious appeal.

Rosaline and the male contestant began to sweat nervously.

In their home country, they were considered prodigies, chosen to represent their nation on this global platform.

Yet, now confronted with such skilled rivals, they felt a sense of their own insignificance.

Their extensive preparation had merely secured them a place in the competition.

Seeing their unease, Lynda offered reassurance.

“Regardless of the outcome, this experience is priceless.

Don’t let nerves hold you back.

Just concentrate on delivering your best performance.

“Okay!” they responded, though still visibly worried.

Lynda encouraged everyone to rest well that night to be at their peak for the competition the next day.

Gradually, everyone withdrew to their rooms.

After a shower, Madisyn relaxed on her bed, admiring the stars through the window.

The night sky here was serene and mesmerizing, a quiet solace before the coming challenge.

She watched the stars for a long while until her phone rang.
