After Qiu Yidao voluntarily surrendered, Uchiha Qi stopped attacking. After fighting Qiu Yidao, he had come to know him well. He believed that Qiu Yidao was not only capable but intelligent as well. He could read the situation clearly and was not as honest and dull-witted as he appeared.
"Akimichi Deren has voluntarily forfeited. Uchiha Qi wins!" After Qiu Yidao's defeat, Dongqiao Cheng immediately went to the center of the arena to announce the result. The awaiting Medical Ninjas swiftly arranged treatment for both contestants' injuries.
"Mom, did Brother Justice lose?" Ino asked in confusion after hearing Dongqiao Cheng announce the result.
"Yes, his opponent was very strong!" After watching the first match, Lingqiu was somewhat worried about Mirai. She gently frowned as she spoke to Inoue.
"Oh, but Brother will definitely be fine, right?" Hearing something unpleasant, Ino asked quietly.
"From the looks of it, Mirai won't be in any danger for the time being!" To keep Ino from worrying, Lingqiu smiled and stroked Ino's shoulder.
"For the second match, Nikka Tetsuji will face Uchiha Itachi of Konoha Village. Please welcome both candidates to the arena!" While the audience was still discussing the thrilling first match, Dongqiao Cheng returned to the center of the arena and announced loudly.
Without a doubt, this was another highly anticipated battle. As two of Konoha Village's great clans, the question of which was superior—the Uchiha Clan or the Hyuga Clan—had always been a favorite topic of discussion. Now, everyone would finally witness a direct clash between the two heirs. Many were delighted by the prospect.
"Go, Itachi!" When Mirai saw Uchiha Itachi enter the arena, he smiled and cheered for him. Uchiha Itachi nodded.
"Elder Tetsuji, cheer up as well. Let's watch a wonderful match!" Mirai said to Nikka Tetsuji with a smile.
