At the Donghua contestants' seating area.
The news that Starry Sky Country had requested to end the tournament was somewhat unexpected, yet it also seemed reasonable.
Although Starry Sky Country held an absolute advantage in the tournament, Donghua had, despite losing several Martial Artists, seen two of their own break through their limits. This ratio was terrifyingly high. If the tournament continued, there was no telling how many more Saint Awakening Powerhouses would be created.
Ending the tournament voluntarily was a way to cut their losses.
The remaining Martial Artists in the seating area had mixed expressions. On one hand, they seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at Starry Sky Country's action, which was tantamount to admitting defeat, because they had defended the honor of the Donghua Martial Arts Realm. At the same time, however, they felt a sense of regret.
With the tournament over, they had likely missed a golden opportunity to advance to Saint Awakening.
