Mission 16

Shen Ningyu tumbled to the ground.

Among the younger generation of the Shen family, not a word was uttered.

After a moment, Shen Ningyu realized her predicament. She had been knocked out of the arena, and the pain on her face stemmed from her face's contact with the ground.

Meanwhile, Shen Lianxue remained composed and still stood on the stage.

"It's impossible!" Shen Ningyu refused to concede defeat and wished to continue the competition.

The elders of the Shen family didn't intervene because they, too, found the situation improbable. The winner of this competition would represent the Shen family in the palace. If Shen Lianxue had only won through luck and couldn't replicate that success in the palace, it would be a significant embarrassment for the Shen family.

Furthermore, there was the matter of discussing the marriage between Qian Ziang, the young master of the Qian family, and Ningyu in the palace.
