On the seventh day, the light point on the sixth floor disappeared. However, not long after, a graceful purple figure appeared at the entrance of the Fu Master Tower.
Looking at the emerged Zi Yue, there were some astonished voices outside the Fu Master Tower. Since she has already shown up, it can be completely confirmed that the last two light points inside the Fu Master Tower indeed belonged to Lin Dong and Zhou Tong.
When Zi Yue saw the dense crowd outside the tower upon her exit, a trace of surprise flickered across her cold face, but it quickly dissipated. She walked with small steps to Master Yan and softly said, "Sorry, teacher."
"Hehe, doing one's best is enough," Master Yan smiled and shook his head, then looked up and said, "And who wins or loses is still uncertain..."
Upon hearing this, Zi Yue also looked up, and when her beautiful eyes focused on the light point on the eighth floor, her slender jade-like hands suddenly clenched tightly, and calm heart began to surge with tumultuous waves at this moment.
"Who is it?" Zi Yue asked, her voice slightly trembling.
"Not clear yet," Master Yan sighed bitterly and said, "It could be Zhou Tong, or it could be Lin Dong..."
"Lin Dong..." Zi Yue bit her lips lightly, thinking of that young man. She didn't expect that the ordinary-looking youth would be able to compete with the most outstanding young fu master from Tianhuo City.
"It seems my vision was too narrow." Zi Yue shook her head in self-ridicule. That youth, whom she thought couldn't play a big role, now carried the honor and disgrace of all the fu masters of Yancheng.
As Zi Yue also stepped out of the Fu Master Tower, the air outside the tower became extremely tense in the following time. Everyone understood that the next person to walk out of the tower would decide the final winner of this tower battle!
In this almost torturous wait, another two days slowly passed...
When the time reached the ninth day, there was suddenly a cry of astonishment outside the Fu Master Tower. This sound almost instantly ignited the tight atmosphere.
"The light point on the seventh floor is coming down!"
All eyes suddenly moved and then saw that the light point which had been stationed on the seventh floor for nine days was moving down layer by layer...
Watching the light point descending layer by layer, everyone outside the Fu Master Tower abruptly stood up, their eyes unblinking as they focused on the position near the gate.
The person about to appear will tell them the final winner of this tower battle!
Under the undivided attention of everyone, in just a few minutes, the light point appeared on the lowest level...
Outside the Fu Master Tower, it became quieter, with faint, somewhat deep footsteps echoing from within the tower. A moment later, a vague figure emerged from the dark area and slowly appeared under the gaze of many.
Seeing the man standing at the entrance of the Fu Master Tower, looking somewhat weary and dispirited, there was an instant silence outside the Fu Master Tower. A gentle breeze swept by, blowing the fallen leaves on the ground...
Zhou Tong!
Gazing fixedly at the entrance of the Fu Master Tower, Han Yun felt a wave of dizziness in his mind. The fu masters beside him, including Liu Long and others from Tianhuo City, also showed expressions of disbelief on their faces at this moment.
Amidst the disbelief, some people couldn't help but look again at the eighth floor, and only after confirming that the light point was still there did they take a deep breath of cold air.
The answer was out: the person who successfully entered the eighth floor was not Zhou Tong, but Lin Dong!
After a brief silence, it was broken by the thunderous cheers of the Yancheng fu masters. After losing to Tianhuo City for two consecutive years, their Yancheng finally achieved victory.
Hearing those cheers that made the earth tremble, a gratified smile spread across Master Yan's aged face. He breathed a sigh of relief, this time he had bet correctly...
Beside him, Zi Yue bit her lips, her beautiful eyes gazing at the light point on the eighth floor, the coldness in her eyes seemingly melting away significantly at this moment. No matter how aloof and proud she was, she had to admit, Lin Dong's astonishing performance today left her no choice but to concede defeat.
Amidst the numerous cheers, Zhou Tong silently walked out, then stopped his steps in front of Han Yun. He rubbed his face hard, and the weariness on his face disappeared entirely, with a renewed sparkle in his eyes.
"Let's go back to Tianhuo City."
Zhou Tong said calmly to Han Yun, showing no signs of being devastated by this failure.
Seeing Zhou Tong's calm expression, Han Yun sighed bitterly, not scolding him. He even admired the former's mentality; such a person, even if he couldn't match Lin Dong in the future, would definitely achieve great things.
After speaking, Zhou Tong took the lead and walked outwards, the surrounding crowd quickly making way for him.
Leading the group from Tianhuo City, Zhou Tong walked out. Just before stepping out of the crowd, his steps hesitated for a moment. At this moment, all the attention was focused on him. As soon as his steps paused, everyone immediately turned their focus towards him.
"Master Yan, please convey to Lin Dong that I lost this time without any complaints. However, the next time, if there's another chance, I will definitely surpass him!"
After his words fell, Zhou Tong no longer lingered, gradually walking away until he disappeared from everyone's sight.
"This guy, undefeated in defeat, is quite a character..." Watching Zhou Tong's retreating figure, Master Yan sighed lightly.
The surrounding fu masters, upon hearing this, also nodded their heads. Although defeated, Zhou Tong's demeanor was indeed admirable.
Master Yan smiled faintly, turned his head, and gazed at the light point on the eighth floor of the Fu Master Tower.
"Hehe, but our guy from Yancheng is an even greater character..."
