With me making to the last 64, I couldn't help but feel a little relieved. The next day, the next round of the tournament started again. We were assigned our matchups through a smartphone app and I saw that I was pitted against Gong Sun Yun.
"An Imperial Valley University student again?" I frowned. I wasn't choosy about my opponents and had no preference whatsoever, but this felt too much to be a coincidence. Well, whatever. Whoever they matched me against, I was determined to do my best.
The first few matches went by, with a few defeats here and there. Fu Xi managed to win his, which was great news for our Seven Stars Academy. Xia Xing Yue won her match without much difficulty. I was relieved to see that I wasn't matched up against Yun Che, who won his match effortlessly as well, against someone from Spirit Forge University.
