Accepting a Loss, Part III

“… Wu Meiying lost. I’m surprised,” Wu Àiliàn said.

Wu Meiying was the best fighter among the younger generation, even better than their son. She had no idea what made this girl so strong. It was like she could read her opponent’s moves before they even made them. Did her talent for fighting have something to do with her powers, or was she just good at reading her opponents?

“I’m surprised as well. I’ve watched her train with Wu Jian and Hou Jingshu. I know how strong she has become. I’m shocked there is someone in the tournament who can match her and Wu Jian in combat,” Wu Yōushì said.

Wu Taohua and Wu Àiliàn had been watching the battles alongside their husband, though they had both focused only on the fights with Wu Jian, Wu Meiying, and Hou Jingshu. Those were the only fights they were invested in.
