Tomorrow is the day of the Life and Death Duel.
On this day, Wyatt Barnes did not go into the Jewel Tower to cultivate. Instead, he stepped out of his room and sat quietly at the stone table in the small courtyard, savoring the aroma of tea from his cup.
He looked at ease, entirely unlike someone who would face a life-and-death confrontation the next day.
Occasionally, some outer disciples passing by caught sight of this scene through the open courtyard gate and couldn't help but shake their heads. "Looks like Wyatt Barnes has given up."
"What a pity that Wyatt Barnes, with such extraordinary talent, is going to fall tomorrow."
"Guess the heavens are jealous of geniuses!"
...
Many outer disciples felt sorry for Wyatt Barnes.
Yet, there were also outer disciples who rejoiced at Wyatt's apparent resignation. "Looks like the merit points I bet against Wyatt Barnes yesterday will come back to me with interest tomorrow."
