Blush
Ryu walked out of the portal in tatters. His black robes, as expected, were shredded to pieces. Only the semblance of sleeves remained while his lower half was a smorgasbord of tears and holes. If it wasn't for his relatively intact Ice Silk flexibly armor, Ryu might have been baring too much for female eyes.
Though his back was just as tall and straight as when he entered, the fatigue was clear in his eyes. The elders didn't notice because they were too enraptured by his performance, but four days had passed since Ryu entered the trial realm. The fact he had held himself together for so long wasn't something the elders would be impressed by until they noticed this striking detail they had missed.
Suddenly, a strong WENGWENG sound rung through the Awoken Moon Sect. No, it was safe to say that everyone within Valor City's territory heard it clearly.
A golden light enveloped Ryu's body, gently healing his accumulated injuries.
