Xia You turned around and saw Misty standing on a low wall behind him, watching him with a popsicle in her mouth.
When she saw him turn, she jumped down from the wall, walked over, and handed him the other popsicle she was holding.
"Why didn't you go look around?" Xia You asked curiously. "Didn't I give you the day off and tell you that you didn't have to keep me company?"
"There wasn't much to see." Misty took the popsicle out of her mouth and shook her head. "Just buildings in different shapes. After you've seen enough, they all start looking the same. Besides, the festival's still several days away, so there's really nothing to see yet."
At that, Misty gave Xia You a teasing look. "Still, good thing I came looking for you. Otherwise, I'd never have seen you locked in such a 'fierce struggle' with these kids!"
Xia You rolled his eyes at her. "What fierce struggle? I was crushing everyone, okay?!"
"Yes, yes..." Misty's smile widened. "Crushing two little kids. You're really something!"
Ignoring her teasing, Xia You turned back to the two little boys.
"Well? Do you want to keep battling? I'm ready whenever you are~"

"Oh?" Xia You looked at them curiously. "You won't battle, but you won't admit defeat either? What do you want, then?"
The boy in the baseball cap said, "Beating us is nothing. We'll only really admit defeat if you can beat Jintai!"
"Jintai?"
The red-cheeked boy nodded. "He's the strongest out of all of us. None of us can beat him, and you definitely can't either!"
From their description, Xia You understood
