After that round, everyone looked at Yun Bilu in awe. That young lady had risen to fame just after one round, and she was not one to be trifled with.

Yun Bilu had no idea that she had become famous.

Huang Yize came to the waiting room and massaged Yun Bilu’s body. He also poured a warm cup of water for her.

Yun Bilu panted aggressively. She wanted to sit down and rest, but Huang Yize stopped her. “You can’t just sit down like that. You won’t be able to get up later.”

Yun Bilu panted and replied, “I’m so tired.”

“You didn’t look like you were tired while you were in the arena.”

“I realized that everything that Master had shown me is not effective at all. During the actual competition, there are so many things to watch out for. I can’t even process everything quick enough. I can only fight back based on my instincts.”

Yun Bilu was really rather exhausted, and she couldn’t stand anymore. She hugged Huang Yize and leaned against him. “I’ll just hug you like this then. I’m not sitting down!” Despite her words, she had completely rested her body against Huang Yize.

Huang Yize allowed her to do so as he said, “Next, you’ll have to fight the two winners from the previous rounds. You have to win the two of them in order to get to the final round.”

“That’s utterly unreasonable.” Yun Bilu pursed her lips and felt wronged.

“That’s the rule. It’s to make the contestants give their all and to hasten the entire competition.”

“No wonder everyone tried to beat their opponents up as soon as possible. If their match was a draw, both of them might be eliminated.”

“Those from a draw match are either highly skilled or crafty. Therefore, the rules had been set this way. Well, it’s good too. This way, you can train yourself. Defeat the two of them and you’ll end up in the top ten contestants.”

“Cough, cough...” Yun Bilu coughed and rested in Huang Yize’s arms gloomily. She didn’t want to talk anymore.

“Once you’ve had enough rest, go outside and watch the matches.”

“Can you let me rest a while longer?” In fact, Yun Bilu just couldn’t bear to leave Huang Yize. She wanted to hug him even longer.

Huang Yize was just about to playfully knock on Yun Bilu’s head when she hurriedly let go off him. She whined, “You don’t care about me at all.”

Huang Yize replied seriously, “Since you’ve decided to compete, I won’t give in to you. Think back on your competition earlier so that you can learn from it and use your new skills for the final round.”

Yun Bilu giggled. “Huang Yize, don’t you think I can surely beat Lin Zhi and Li Qiuxiang?”

Huang Yize pinched her cheeks and said, “Don’t get ahead of yourself. It’s taboo for all competitions.”

“Yes, I know.” Yun Bilu might be pouting, but she felt sweet deep down.

Lunch was held in the large dining hall beside the arena. The chief minister provided all the contestants free meals. A lot of people wanted to speak to Yun Bilu, but sensing Huang Yize’s aura, they didn’t dare to get close to her at all.

Huang Yize was radiating an icy and strong presence, so it was hard for anyone to try to approach him.

Yun Bilu and Huang Yize were discussing strategies for the competition and didn’t notice the changes in their surroundings.

After lunch, Gu Zhengxun spoke to Yun Bilu regarding her match and explained to her which strategies to adopt for each specific opponent.

Yun Bilu listened attentively. The first match in the afternoon involved Bo Guangjian and two other winning contestants from earlier. Undoubtedly, Bo Guangjian still won even though he single-handedly fought against two of them. He qualified straight for the finals.

After that, Yun Bilu fought against Lin Zhi and Li Qiuxiang.

Yun Bilu knew that the two of them were strong too, so she didn’t dare to let down her guard. She fought them both with a combination of moves.
