The judge's gaze swept across the crowd, and he slowly began, "Please have the contestant Situ Mingrui ascend the stage."
His voice fell, yet no one appeared on the stage.
The crowd showed expressions of confusion in their eyes.
Mu Qianyue couldn't help but furrow her brow. Ever since she got up this morning, she hadn't seen Situ Mingrui. Initially, she was planning to join the tournament with him, but as the start time approached, he was nowhere to be found, so Mu Qianyue had come ahead.
She hadn't expected that he still wouldn't be here...
Situ Mingrui was never someone who would be late.
"Ha ha, as timid as a mouse; is it possible he's afraid and hiding deliberately?" The young man remarked, he being Situ Mingrui's opponent this time, a representative from Yunying Country.
Given the chance to mock and ridicule Canglang Country, naturally, he wouldn't hold back.
Cang Crown Prince frowned in displeasure.
The audience murmured among themselves.
