The Tournament's Final Battle, Part I

It was the last day of the tournament. Everyone was excited about the upcoming fight between Jian Wu and Mei Xilan. The stands were abuzz with a crowd of excitedly talking guests who’d all come to see a good show. The betting booth was particularly busy as people made predictions on who would win.

Wu Jian stood in the waiting room with Mei Xilan and Hou Jingshu, who had decided to accompany him even though she was no longer in the tournament. The young princess was definitely acting clingy that day. She had been hugging his arm ever since they left for the arena and hadn’t let go. Despite being depressed about losing yesterday, she was smiling like she’d won the national Cultivator Cards tournament.

It’s like she took all of her frustrations out on me last night… not that I can complain.
