273, Who Wins and Who Loses

The sky was overcast, and the little incident involving Zhao Douan's arrival quickly subsided.

People once again focused their attention on the empty fighting stage ahead and the upcoming magical duel.

"When will it start?"

From his high vantage point, Zhao Douan's gaze alternated between the two opposing stands on either side.

Those were the positions of the Heavenly Master Mansion and the Divine Dragon Temple.

His eyes instinctively searched for Jin Jian, but failing to locate him amidst a group of magicians clad in priest robes, he only noticed Gongshu Tianyuan.

This craftsman magician, chock-full of bizarre ideas, was dressed in a brand-new robe today and didn't carry the large bamboo tube that he usually kept as a "pet" fox fairy.

Standing with his hands behind his back amidst the crowd, he looked solemn and serious, as if sensing the stare coming from this direction, Gongshu Tianyuan looked over with a slight surprise.

Then, he nodded at Zhao Douan.
