With the departure of Wu Shitong, the central arena seemed to be a kingdom only belonging to Lou Cheng, allowing him to receive cheers and applause alone. Pieces of blue stones underfoot were illuminated by the sunshine coming through the transparent dome, infected with a layer of golden light.
Lou Cheng was a little-cramped up. He saluted in all four directions, just like physically invulnerable Mighty Ones did in the Top Five Title Matches. In return, he won more enthusiastic applause and cheers.
He took a deep breath and turned to the edge. From the referee, he got back his jacket, cell phone, and other personal belongings. He then went away along the stone steps.
