After looking at each other for a few moments and talking among themselves, the three referees decided that the winner of this match could only be one person.
The fight had been reasonably even at times, but the strategy of one of the participants had overcome his opponent's strength, giving him the advantage at the end of the contest.
Thus, they soon informed the central referee on that platform of their decision.
That person then stood in the middle of that platform and said to Lothur, Phil, and everyone else in the surrounding area. "Contestant Lothur Ritter wins this contest and moves on to the next round of this competition!"
The moment he said that, the surroundings went into a convulsion. The people who were there to celebrate vibrated in excitement, while those involved in the local political game had conflicting emotions.
