Chapter 53
The arena still abuzzed with excitement, the sounds of cheering and whispered discussions filling the air.
Battles after Battles still going on. Feng Jiao Xue had three more fights after her duel with Feng Ming but it was... unticlimactic after the first two yet her viewers never failed to lean on the edge of their seat, curious how far this little surprise could go farther. Waiting with bathed breath for her victory or defeat.
Even in the preperation room, Feng Jiao Xue was still feeling her Qi waiting to be unleashed again like a caged beast that finally had a taste of freedom.
Feng Jiao Xue still feeling the rush of her victories was about to turn it in and retreat for the day as her five matches already qualifies her for the next round when a familiar presence halted her in her tracks.
Clap... Clap... Clap. A slow, deliberate clap rang out.
Feng Jiao Xue’s heart skipped a beat feeling tha familiar Qi signature behind her, the screams and roars from behind the door leading to the arena seeming to quieten at the unmistakable sound. She didn’t need to look back to know who it was, she felt it in the air, the subtle power he carried, the quiet confidence in his every step as each footstep rang on her ears coming closer.
Liang Feng, the Crown Prince.
Feng Jiao Xue closed her eyes as he makes his way toward her.. His dark robes shimmered in the light, and his eyes locked onto hers with an easy, almost warm smile.
"You did well," Liang Feng said, his voice calm and deep, but there was something there, an understanding. "I didn’t expect anything less from you Jiao Xue or should I say FengJiaoXue."
