Day's End

Ning walked back into the waiting room where many people stared at him as he entered.

He walked up to his group, who were all staring at him as if they had seen a monster. 

"You actually did it," the teacher couldn't help but say. He had no hope in anyone other than the 3 seeded fighters winning, and somehow Ning had won against an Essence Soul realm cultivator.

"Thanks for the info, teacher," Ning said. "That helped quite a bit."

The teacher gave a wide smile. "Good," he said, happy to himself.

"Good job, friend," the princess spoke with a wide grin. "What is your name again? Ning? I shall remember it from now on."

Ning nodded slightly and thanked the princess. He sat beside Tenn and Kaleb who immediately started asking what he did at the end.

"It's simple really," Ning said. "I created a large volume of air between me and the ground and launched high in the air."
