Even with the air conditioning fully turned on in the martial arts hall, it couldn't stop the students' passionate hearts for gossip. The buzzing sound of their discussions filled the air constantly.
Most topics were about Mu Binglan and Ju Yuuzen, some mentioned Lin Tian, but those quickly got drowned out by other voices. As for the completely unknown Qiao Xiaoyi, no one brought him up at all.
Of course, many people didn't know that Qiao Xiaoyi was going to participate; his entry was decided privately.
While everyone was engrossed in their discussions, those involved seemed unfazed. Some closed their eyes to meditate, some were chatting, while regular members of the two clubs locked eyes in a stare-down, even before the competition had begun.
In the heated atmosphere, a man holding a microphone walked up onto the stage. Probably to match the evening's martial arts vibe, the host was also dressed in a training uniform.
