"Brother Wei, how's the battle going?" Jiang Shengjun approached Wei Yi, his curiosity evident.
Among the three, Wei Yi was the easiest to talk to—sothing Jiang Shengjun had concluded after careful observation.
Although Liu Ruyu was stunningly beautiful, Jiang Shengjun understood a simple truth:
A beautiful woman is like a rose—admire from a distance, don't provoke.
Besides, Liu Ruyu's status was far beyond his own as the Pri Minister's son.
As for Wu Ying...
Didn't his face already scream "Stay away from "?

"The first round of battles is over. We're now in the second round," Wei Yi answered calmly, unfazed by Jiang Shengjun's casual approach.
"Already?! That fast?" Jiang Shengjun's eyes widened.
Wasn't this way too quick?
Aren't battles at the Pathseeker level supposed to last for days?
Had all those historical records and biographical novels been lying to him?
"Did you really think high-level battles last for days, like in those novels?" Wei Yi raised an eyebrow.
Jiang Shengjun chuckled awkwardly, feeling exposed.
"In a battle between top experts, even the smallest differences are magnified. A single mistake can decide the outco," Wu Ying unexpectedly chid in, his usually silent deanor breaking.
"The drawn-out fights in novels? Those are just for dramatic effect. In reality, they almost never happen," he added.
Jiang Shengjun suddenly understood.
He then asked, "So, who's winning?"
"His Majesty, Senior Xia, and Senior Haitang have all won their matches. Senior Daoxu's match ended in a draw," Wei Yi replied, his eyes glued to the screen.
Jiang Shengjun frowned slightly.
There were too many seniors involved, and three of them were unfamiliar to him.
After so thought, he managed to match nas to faces.
"Sounds like an intense battle," he muttered, deciding to pause his own Tower of Trials session and simply watch.
After all, he had plenty of ti to play later.
But watching high-level combat in real-ti?
That was a rare opportunity.
Besides... eating snacks while watching a fight seed like a great experience.
Jiang Shengjun suddenly realized sothing profound.

While he enjoyed his instant noodles, spicy strips, and cola, the others couldn't help but stare.
Wei Yi, Liu Ruyu, and Wu Ying swallowed hard.
That wasn't just ordinary food—
That was Chaos Origin Spring Water!
That was Spring Water!
What a waste!
If not for Origin Mall's strict no-resale policy, they would've tried to buy so from him in an instant.
Alas, the rules were the rules...
Not long after, the Bu siblings arrived at Origin Mall as usual.
"Huh? What's going on? Why aren't you guys playing Tower of Trials?" Bu Shiyi asked, confused.
"Co quick! The seniors are battling in arena mode. If you're late, you'll miss it!" Wei Yi urged.
"What?! That's happening right now?!" Bu Lige exclaid, eyes widening in excitent.
