This game was not only competitive but also joyful. For the first three rounds, the participants were mainly boys. However, for the fourth round, a girl was added into each team and it was decided that if a girl hit then the team where she was in could gain four scores. The game formally started along with a whistle. Members of each team were enthusiastic, actively cooperated with each other and conducted defense and attack round by round. The scores of two teams were almost the same, which contributed to a thrilling and stimulating atmosphere. It was until the fourth round where a girl was added into each team that the thrilling atmosphere reached its peak and finally the representative team composed of graduates admitted in 2013 won by a narrow margin. After the game, teachers from MPA Center issued precious gifts for each team and took a picture with them for commemoration.
