The Inter Class Exchange ended on a grim note.
It was a far cry from the excitement that had enveloped the hall on the first day, but no one seemed to notice the drastic change in atmosphere.
As expected, the final match was considered to be Invalid, so the Elite Tournament ended with the results gotten from the first nine matches;
Upper Class: 9 Wins, 0 Losses
Middle Class: 0 Wins, 9 Losses
Lower Class: 0 Wins, 9 Losses
No one objected to the results since it was obvious from what they had witnessed.
The expressions of the Lower Class Elites rang with relief. They seemed overjoyed that the bothersome exchange was finally over and they could now properly rest… unshackled by any more responsibilities on their part.
It was a wonder how none of them felt any shame or embarrassment concerning the gruesome loss they had suffered.
For those in the Middle Class, it was clear that they were frustrated.
