Tu Bai remembered he could not let anyone see his wound being stitched and hurriedly bowed to the judge, saying, "Thank you for your concern, sir. I will bandage it after watching my sister's competition. There is no need to trouble the doctor, as my classmate is a doctor himself."
The judge had just seen Bai Ruozhu administer a needle to Tu Bai and nodded without insisting further.
Right behind Tu Bai, separated by just one person, stood Wu Ying, her expression grave. Her performance this time was not only for herself but also for her brother, the Study Palace, and the honor of Beiyu City. She even bore the weight of defying those who insisted on highlighting the differences between the North and the South. Her pressure was immense.
"Little sister, you can do it!" Tu Bai said.
