"It's over-it's all over-"
"Even Zhu Tian lost. Ideal City-there's no hope left!"
"How could this happen-"
"Who on earth is he-is he a god?"
When Zhu Tian plummeted from the sky, all of Ideal City fell deathly silent. The citizens stared blankly, the last glimmer of hope slowly fading from their eyes.
