"It's your turn," Soujin said as he gives way to the other party. Even without looking, it's clear that Lan Ping face must be dark and he won't have the courage to move forwards. Being compared like that in public, it would be better to back down and not compete in case he makes a fun of himself.
Lan Ping forced a smile amidst his anger, "This one general is not feeling that well, thus unable to perform my best."
"Oh? Why don't you say that before we make the bet?" Soujin arched his eyebrows.

"I was careless," Lan Ping gives an excuse.
