"I announce! The winner of this match is! George Sto..."
Thud!
Before Arnold could announce the winner, George collapsed. He has consumed all his spiritual energy in defending that last attack with his maces.
Linda smiled in satisfaction as she pushed her glasses back. "Looks like it's a draw."
"But George lasted more than your student," Arnold argued.
"He did last a few seconds more, but you did not announce the winner in time." Linda pushed her glasses back again. "Had you been a second faster, I would not have said anything. But he could not hold on till you announced him the winner. No matter how I see it, it's a draw."
Arnold clenched his fists and gritted his teeth angrily. He knew he had no choice but to announce this battle a draw. Once Linda sets her mind on something, no one can change her mind.
'Why couldn't you hold on just a second longer?!' He glared at George angrily.
