Shen opened up and closed his palm again and again. He got nervous after winning the first match against Lotus as this was a deciding match. If Lotus beat him in the second match, they would have to fight for the third match. The fourth place, Fey, had three losses. So, it was impossible for Fey to take second place if the match ended in a draw.
What made Shen even more worried, Lotus seemed to be unfazed by the first match's loss. He could see that from the expression.
His opponent was not agitated with how he lost the first match, showing little emotion. The prep talk time started, yet none of them had any interest in speaking.
'Calm down, Shen. You can do it as you planned. Use [Void Step] from the start, surprise him, and finish the fight in two strikes.' Shen tried to calm himself down in case he choked in the following match.
