The arena was silent, all mouths agape, for an unbelievable scene had unfolded on the stage.
Clad in black, Chuandao Kong was darting frantically across the stage, her ninjutsu making her appear ghost-like, vanishing here and reappearing there.
Meanwhile, her opponent Hua Chen had disappeared and was now sitting quietly and properly on the Taishi Chair prepared for him by the Bamboo Union Gang. On the stage stood an entirely unrecognizable young man, yet inexplicably, Chuandao Kong seemed to look right through him.
"Pop!" With a raise of his hand, everyone heard a single "pop."
Chuandao Kong let out a sharp scream as she received a slap in the face.
She was horrified, her movement even faster, darting chaotically about the arena.
The young man raised his hand again – "pop," "pop," "pop."
