Mu Qingli called over Teacher Wang and the principal, along with Sakai Yaoko's teacher and principal, as well as an envoy from M Country.
After hearing the whole story, both Teacher Wang and the principal expressed their concerns.
After all, Sakai Yaoko's strength was not to be underestimated; she was a renowned prodigy from R Country, featured in newspapers and on television, a household name there.
"Qingli, don't act rashly," Teacher Wang said in a low voice. "In front of the whole world, this is no longer just about you!"
The principal also voiced his worries, "Teacher Wang is right, Qingli. It's normal for young people to want to win, but you must also know your limits. If you lose, the shame won't just be yours..."
Although the principal and Teacher Wang were aware of Mu Qingli's abilities, her opponent was, after all, a prodigy from R Country!
Moreover, in the semifinals, Mu Qingli's total score was ten points less than Sakai Yaoko's!
