Leaning back, Eiden drew his sword from behind and parried Yiwen's attack. The entire arena gaped in bewilderment, gasps of shock filling the air. Yiwen's many fans were bathed in shock as Eiden pulled out his sword from behind and parried Yiwen's finishing blow.
The crowd was restless, with questioning looks and tells of disbelief.
Amidst the restless crowd sat DoHyun and the other participants who were yet to spar. Gabbie's turn with her opponent was next so she was by herself.
Her eyes sparkled watching Eiden. The way his hair danced with the wind, the movements of his minimal muscles, she peered so that she wouldn't miss any detail of him.
She could tell Yiwen was willing and Eiden was having a bit of a tough time. She prayed hard that he would win. Her mind trailed back to when he said he would wish to be reunited with his mother. Of he doesn't win, how then will he make the wish.
