Chapter 726 So You Think You're Tough?

• Initially, Jace only had about a 50% chance of winning the race. But after witnessing Gabriel's incredible driving skills firsthand, his confidence surged. If Gabriel kept his promise to compete that night, Jace was sure that he had a 90% chance of winning, even with potential mishaps during the race. Seeing Gabriel's unmatched abilities made him realize that, indeed, there were always stronger competitors out there.
• Chase Nelson, the heir of the Nelson family—one of the four great families of Caslion—was also a racing enthusiast and had his own team. Being a long-time friend of Jace, he was happy to sponsor the race. Owen, eager to see Jace humiliate himself, happily accepted the challenge and, with the backing of the Lloyd and Yates families, contributed funds as well. To him, it was worth the money for the entertainment of watching Jace fail.
• To further increase the stakes, Owen added a mysterious grand prize to the race, drawing even more attention. He was determined to publicly crush Jace that night and make him regret not joining his team. Owen believed that, after suffering such a defeat, Jace might finally realize that if he couldn't beat them, he should join them. It was a win-win for Owen—strengthening his team with Jace's talent and solidifying his dominance. With Jace's talent combined with the Fatal Pair, Owen's team would become unstoppable, pushing them to the pinnacle of the racing world.
