Keerthi was insta-killed by his head tilt. How could that gesture be so charming? As expected, love-blindness was real. This really was the power of love.

"Of course," Keerthi replied, smiling.

"So, what do you do?"

"I'm pursing final year in Video Gaming management," Keerthi replied, her eyes lighting up.

Aaditya looked impressed. "That's amazing. It's always great to see women in tech. We need more of them."

Keerthi nodded, her eyes shining with pride. "I agree. It's important for women to have a voice and representation in all fields, including tech and law enforcement."

His voice is still ringing in her mind which made her heart tickle.

She had never thought that her heart would be moved by a person that she had not known for even a day.

That day, the second round of the 'You might be the Hacker Challenge' officially started. Similar to the previous round, the only difference was that the challenge has changed from an individual level clearance to a team battle match with 3 games.

After dinner, Aaradhya turned on the laptop, logged into the backstage of the 'You might be the Hacker Challenge', and opened the small chat group with her, Arjun[Jishnu], and Ravi[Joe_not_exotic].

The matchmaking process finally gave them an opponent: Aaradhya's team would fight against a team with 5 members. At the beginning of the game, during the 10 minutes preparation time. [Jishnu] quickly established a rough frame for the security wall, then began to finish it. Ten minutes was too short to build a complete security wall. Therefore, many teams would focus on the attack. In the 10 minutes. they would work together to create a simple defense wall and then commit a full attack once the battle began.

Such as the first team they met.

Once the battle started, all five people directly came to attack [Jishnu]'s security wall. Their idea was very simple, as long as they managed to break through their opponent's security wall before Aaradhya's team could do the same, they win. Therefore, the opposing team directly left an entire arena for Aaradhya. It was really an easy attack, and there was no 'plan' whatsever. The security wall they built in just 10 minutes was too rough. When Aaradhya attacked, she found no less than 10 bugs. The next second, the system prompted [Invasion Successful]. The whole process did not even exceed a minute.

The moment they received the system prompt [End of Battle], not only the opposing team, but [Jishnu] was also dumbfounded.

[Jishnu]: The security wall he worked so hard to build has left un attacked before it came into use? He hasn't enjoyed the pleasure of abusing others, and it already a game over?

In the first two games, Aaradhya and her teammates still did not encounter any notable masters and won easily. In the middle of the battle, probably thinking that the opponents weren't challenging at all. [Jishnu] even leisurely chatted with Ravi, mostly grumbling about how weak their opponents were.

Soon after the third game started. [Jishnu]'s voice came again from team's headset, but this time. his tone suddenly became serious.

[Jishnu]: "It's a veteran, be careful."

Aaradhya: "You recognize someone?"

Arjun: "Well, just now I thought that the opponent's layout was a bit familiar, and then slipped over and took a glance at their security wall.  I still don't know the rest of their members, they should not be weak."

After listening to [Jishnu] 's explanation, Aaradhya's expression also turned serious.

[Joe_not_exotic]: "Tsk, the opponent's lineup is indeed luxurious enough. Did the system secretly hear your complaints?"

[Jishnu]: "But don't be afraid, ain't I here. Although my points are not as high as them, my defense skills are definitely better than him. Sunshine, you can just attack at ease, and I will guard our base."

After that Arjun speeded up the building of the security wall.

Aaradhya and Ravi began to attack the opposing team's security wall. Just as Arjun said, their opponents really deserved to be high-ranked masters. The difficulty of breaking this security wall built in only 10 minutes was almost in par with the top five hardest levels.

Aaradhya didn't dare to treat them lightly. She made 5 sets of disguised data, and began to carefully invade the other party's securitu sustem.

[Joe_not_ exotic] asked Aaradhya: "Sunshine, how is your situation there?"

[Sunshine]: A bit troublesome.
