The enthusiasm of the 100,000 spectators completely overshadowed the sweltering heat of June.

As the last event of the day concluded, the audience did not rush to leave, but instead looked expectantly at the open space of the sports field.

As expected, just like the last Royal Games, the red and black Cuju teams arranged by Liu Hong once again entered the stadium and began a fierce Cuju match.

After months of continuous training and improvement, the matches between these two domestic Cuju teams are now more entertaining than ever, while still maintaining their passionate intensity.

Watching the players on both sides fight tooth and nail on the field, the audience's passion was completely ignited.

Even the usually composed Liu Hong couldn't help but stand up excitedly when he saw the player shoot.

The players' fighting spirit and their indomitable will completely won over everyone present.

This also made up for the slight regret in Liu Hong's heart.

As a gong sounded, the football match ended in a draw, and the crowd left the stadium with a sense of unfinished business.

Soon, news of the intense competitions and thrilling final battles at the sports meet spread throughout the streets and alleys of Luoyang.

For the next ten days or so, the sports field remained packed, and Liu Hong personally attended every day to watch the games.

Liu Hong also gave generous rewards to the athletes who performed exceptionally well.

As the saying goes, what the superiors do, the inferiors follow. Seeing that the emperor and the powerful officials in the court loved sports and Cuju (ancient Chinese football), people began to imitate them.

With the successful conclusion of the sports meet, a wave of sports enthusiasm began to sweep across the entire Han Dynasty.
