Chapter 488: Four hundred eighty-six, victorious
Lu Hanmo gazed at Luo Shu on the stage, his face devoid of worry and tension. He understood her, trusted her even more, and knew she would never do anything she wasn’t certain of. This time would be no different.
The elder with the long whiskers stepped onto the stage and announced loudly, "The competition is over!"
In the final second before the competition ended, Luo Shu set down the talisman in her hands, let out a gentle sigh, and a faint smile spread across her face. She had managed to finish in the last moment.
Yuwen Qisha glanced at the talisman on Luo Shu’s desk, surprise, anger, and unwillingness flickering in his eyes.
The results of the competition were being tallied with tense speed, and at this moment, everyone was most concerned about Luo Shu’s performance. Although she had completed the competition at the last moment, it was already quite remarkable that she could finish under such pressure; the likelihood of achieving a high score was very slim.
The judges quickly tabulated the results, which could be said to be both within and beyond their expectations. They had some speculations from the beginning, but the events that had occurred in the middle made them somewhat uncertain. However, the result was almost as they had anticipated at the start.
Once the elder with the long whiskers received the results, he began to announce them. He knew what the people wanted to know most at this moment and if he hadn’t known the outcome, he would’ve been just as eager to find out.
"Tenth place, Liang Yiwen, Mysterious-order Level Eight Fire Rain Talisman, top-rank level, score 8.5."
