Bright sunlight spilled across the earth.
Under the sun's rays, Pope's Palace appeared even more resplendent and magnificent, like the dwelling place of immortals.
Before Pope's Palace.
Two rows of palace guard knights stretched from the entrance of Pope's Palace all the way down the mountain.
Their armor gleamed silver, their knightly swords heavy and imposing.
They made all of Pope Mountain seem even more majestic.
The eliminated teams had already left. They were not even permitted to watch the final day's battles.
Only true young powerhouses were qualified to set foot on the plaza before Pope's Palace.
However.
Ye Qiu's group was surrounded by a flock of lovely girls.
Huo Wu, Meng Yiran, and the entire Heavenly Water Academy Team had all mixed in with them.
When the fourth round ended.
Ye Qiu had been called over by Shui Bing'er.
Then he had fallen into Huo Wu's ambush. After her persistent coaxing and pestering.
Ye Qiu had finally agreed.
As for why Shui Bing'er had been the one to call Ye Qiu over.
It was entirely because Huo Wu knew her own limits.
She had already ambushed Ye Qiu many times. If she wanted another chance to be alone with him.
Ning Rongrong and the others certainly would not allow it.
But Shui Bing'er was different.
She looked like the honest sort, the kind who would not seduce men.
To be safe.
And to avoid another conflict with Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and the others.
Huo Wu and Shui Yue'er had obediently wiped away the marks they had left on Ye Qiu's face
before letting him return.
The two girls seeking to rise in status clearly showed signs of forming an alliance.
Early that morning.
Under Ning Rongrong's furious gaze.
Huo Wu and Shui Yue'er sensibly lowered their heads
