Laughter

As soon as the AI voice resounded, almost instantaneously, each of the terminals the youths were guarding stopped emitting their bright lights, their forms dimming.

Then, the whole camp descended into a brief silence, only to be broken in the next second by each of the youths cheering loudly.

"WOAH!!!!!"

Many of the youths instantly started jumping up and hugging themselves in celebrations.

Unlike the Ravenstein youths who remained unfazed, having expected their win, each of the youths was exhilarated and happy that they won!

And the fact that all of them had participated in the battle had left them feeling proud and happy at how far they had come.

Some of the youths were away from the terminal inside the forest. After Atticus had defeated the whole army, he had commanded each of the groups to enter the forest and get rid of the last batch of youths.
