Sometime later;
After having a night of good sleep, Mark slowly wakes up in the morning and lazily stretches his body, "Yooo…shaaaa… Today is Day 17 and less than two weeks away from the completion of the system upgrade. Hmm, I guess there is enough time… Anyway, let's go and resume our journey. We should reach the palace by evening… Hmmm…"
*Clang* Clang* Clang*
The sounds of metals clashing with each other disturbed his thoughts and made him focus on the outside. Wondering what's going on, he raises the door only to witness two strangers having a swordfight, not just far away from his tent. His other companions were staring at the teenage couple.
Mark stepped outside but it appeared that no one but Song Yue paid attention to him as everyone's eyes were on the strangers who were moving at a crazy speed.
Meanwhile, Song Yue walked toward him and greeted him good morning, asking about how his sleep went.
