章 47: Central Ring

Lou Cheng set his heart at rest and kept his mind calm, concentrating his spirit and qi on one item and using Jindan to achieve an inward vision. His muscles moved little by little, adjusting and adapting. Everything but the match was forgotten and his full attention was given.

The central ring referee's announcement came as if from the clouds.

"Match Five. Ye Youting won!"

"Match Four and Five are over..." Lou Cheng opened up his eyes, revealing a deep pool inside his eyes. He strode towards the central ring leisurely and climbed that familiar yet strange flight of stone stairs.

How much I once envied those leading fighters of the Martial Arts Club for taking this journey to glory. Finally, it's my turn.

"One, two, three..." He counted his steps walking up the stairs and then stood to the right side of the referee.
