Before The Festival

Naturally, Lou Cheng wasn't aware of the changes in Kaori Karasawa's thoughts, nor was he interested in understanding. After spending a few joyous days with Yan Zheke, he sent her off to make her way back to Xiushan. 

After another two rounds of competition, the top tier professional competition finally ended. Longhu Club did not disappoint the high expectations others had for them and obtained the title of "World No. 1." Because he had only participated in three matches as a main member, Lou Cheng felt a little distant from the title. He secretly made up his mind that he would play a greater role in the new season after the spring holidays. 

For this, he gave up on the other arena matches in January. He wanted to take a good break, sharpen his blade, and accumulate an edge. 

He also wanted to choose sparingly from the five titled competitions, make a push for it, and obtain a breakthrough in ranking, or even fight for the challenge rights.
