I Never Expected Anything From You
The morning after the tournament found Huǒ Pànguó standing before the throne room, where his father was located. He was currently in discussions with the elders over the results of the tournament. Huǒ Pànguó couldn’t hear what was being said. However, there was little else they could discuss. He was certain they were disappointed and angry with the way things turned out.

His failure to secure victory would be seen by many as a reflection of his inadequacy and might be perceived as a loss of face for the entire clan.
