But no matter how long everyone waited, the two people never showed up.
The game is about to start. Could it be that these two people... are both late?
Just when everyone's hearts were as restless as ants, two figures came gracefully.
The man has black hair draped over his shoulders and looks as handsome as a god; the woman is extremely beautiful, with a pure and graceful figure, like the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady descending to the mortal world.
At this time, they held hands and slowly landed on the battle stage.
"It's finally here!" the audience shouted in unison.
I thought they were both late.
"The competition has officially begun."
As the incense stick burned out, the assistant referee announced the start of the game.
The first place winner will have an additional attribute added after the game results, but the second place winner will get nothing.
But the two people on the stage—
The two men smiled at each other and said in unison, "I abstain."
Suddenly, the audience fell silent.
Everyone was silent.
Su Luo's abstention was understandable, but what kind of abstention was His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin? He could defeat Su Luo with just a wave of his hand, right? He actually chose to abstain.
In the VIP seats, several old men laughed when they heard this.
"Interesting, really interesting." Old Master Beichen stroked the few goatees on his chin and smiled. "Now that both of them have given up, Brother Rong Yun, what do you think we should do?"
Master Rong Yun is the chief referee, so naturally he has the final say.
Old Master Li snorted coldly, "To abstain from such a solemn occasion because of a child's personal feelings is simply ridiculous."
Mr. Luo also followed suit and echoed Mr. Li.
The rest of the people also took sides.
"Brother Li, what do you think we should do?" Master Rong Yun glanced at Grandpa Li with a faint look.
This person from the Yao Chi Li family had a deep hostility towards Nangong and Su Luo, and everyone present knew this.
Elder Li was unequivocal, stating his thoughts bluntly: "In my opinion, abstaining is not a decision a strong person should make. A strong person should forge ahead, preferring death to submission, not abstain!"
"So?" Master Rong Yun's voice was calm, and his expression could not be seen.
"So, there's no first place in this competition, only two second places!" Old Master Li shouted, "If this were on a battlefield, on the line of life and death between the demons and humans, and when the human race's cause was put against personal feelings, Nangong Liuyun would most likely choose personal feelings. Tell me, is such a person qualified to be the champion? Is he worthy of that position?"
The old men present frowned slightly.
What Mr. Li said was not without reason. A man should have great ambitions. If he places too much emphasis on personal relationships, it will be the biggest psychological barrier and will prevent him from achieving great things.
Master Rong Yun looked indifferent and did not comment.
Seeing that Master Rong Yun remained unmoved, Mr. Li's eyes darkened slightly.
Old Master Beichen sneered and looked at Old Master Li with disdain: "Old Li, you are not afraid of that kid Nangong, are you?"
"What did you say?" Mr. Li was angry.
"Isn't it? Nangong Liuyun is a three-element mage of wind, water, and thunder. He's still young but has risen to the commander level. He's a well-deserved new generation king. If he adds another elemental attribute, when all the elements are finally integrated, how powerful will he be? Don't you understand?"
Before Mr. Li could refute, Mr. Beichen sneered, "It's common knowledge that the Yaochi Li family has a grudge against Nangong Liuyun and Su Luo. It's also common knowledge that you don't want those two to become more powerful. So, there's no need to explain, because explaining is covering up, and covering up is making up stories."
"You!" Old Master Li pointed at Old Master Beichen angrily and almost vomited blood.
