On the martial arts platform!!
Qin Jishi lay on the ground, his vision blurred into a world of blood-red.
His consciousness was rapidly fading, and his life force was draining away.
His chest was shattered, and his internal organs had been severely crushed. The excruciating pain had already numbed him, while everything around him was deathly silent.

"..."

Zhang Shiqing's figure vanished as well. Immediately afterward, Su Qi appeared.
"Su Qi, did you come to see me off too?"
