Noelle paid no heed to the online buzz. People would always talk, and she couldn't control what they said anyway. Moreover, her main task was to focus on the extra training for now.
On top of her daily long runs and core training, she also cranked up her upper body strength training.
She'd be the earliest to arrive at the training ground and the latest to leave every day.
In the physical fitness test one week later, her results were twice as good as they were the week before.
As a result, she climbed up four rankings in Flame Speed Racing. That was a remarkably fast improvement.
At the same time, the racing teams in the intensive training camp began their selection for their captains.
The captain selection was done by the coaches, who did the evaluation based on the members' overall strength and performance.
After the coaches completed their evaluation, Noelle was selected as the captain of Flame Speed Racing.
The news shocked everyone, including Noelle herself.
Hazel stood up to protest, "Noelle's new here. She might be older than us, but she isn't as experienced as us. I think Alexis should be our captain."
Hearing her words, everyone assumed she was standing up for Alexis.
After all, before Noelle showed up, Alexis was one of the strongest members on the team.
The other team members chimed in, "Yes, why was she selected to be our captain? Many of us have better stamina than her. She only arrived a while ago. Can she lead us well?"
Jayden grumbled in displeasure, "Coach Landaal, it's one thing to add a new member out of nowhere, but making her our captain too? That's not fair to the rest of us."
Even Noelle felt that this was a bit too much.
She was indeed new, and she didn't feel like being the captain.
Being the captain meant she had to manage the team members.
With her focus now on training, she wasn't interested in managing people.
Right then, Hunter pulled out her full physical fitness test results. "Noelle was chosen as the captain solely because of her exceptional abilities. Her stamina might lack a bit, but she scored full marks in other training categories."
He then tossed the results to the rest of the group. "If you're not convinced, match her results first before you talk."
At once, everyone's gaze landed on Noelle's test results.
After taking a good look at her results, they were naturally shocked.
"What the hell? She scored full marks for track driving? Are you saying Noelle's driving skills are flawless? Even when she's driving on a track when it's raining?"
"Unbelievable. Her lap time differences are under five seconds. What kind of monster does that?"
