Bab 1023: Chapter 1023 Not Toast… but Rice Crispies?

There was a somewhat tense moment after that, as Lian valiantly struggled to lift Beatrice off of her. It didn't matter too much, as Beatrice was clearly unconscious but Lian wasn't doing all that well herself. She was exhausted and running low on qi. Beatrice wasn't exactly heavy, but some of her clothing had a good deal of heft to it. For such an exhausted Lian, it wasn't entirely easy to get off. Still, this wasn't wrestling. The announcer should've called the match as soon as Beatrice collapsed. 

Kat wasn't entirely sure why it took so long, the announcer waited for Lian to completely throw off Beatrice AND return to her full sitting height afterwards. "Lian is the winner!" shouted the announcer. "A short intermission between matches will occur before you see the final match in this arena. Please be back within twenty minutes!"
