Though Tian Jingren had left, the Plum Meeting had to continue. Yet, many Cultivation practitioners felt rather disappointed since they missed the chance of meeting the grandmaster to get evaluated.
Guo Dong, the disciple of the Water-Moon Nunnery, won first place in the zither tournament. The chess tournament was next.
In the past plum meetings, the chess tournament had attracted the least attention, simply because the final result had already been determined, rather than the fact that people weren't interested in the tournament.
Like the saying "The winner is guaranteed to be the Water-Moon Nunnery", the winner of the chess games…was guaranteed to be Tong Yan anyway.
However, the situation was kind of different that year. More attention had been paid to the chess tournament.
Of course, nobody doubted that the final winner would still be Tong Yan.
