Lin Mu walked off the stage. The referee stared at him as if trying to comprehend divine logic.
One of the audience members shouted dramatically, "Why? Why would you abandon greatness?"
Lin Mu waved and left.
And with that, the rumors increased again.
Some said Lin Mu was so powerful he was bored.
Some said he was so confident he knew the streaks meant nothing.
Others said he did not care about fame, only about his companions.
All were true.
Regardless, this month forever changed the pace of the tournament.
Usually, the eliminations dragged on for months. But because Lin Mu and Cattaleya swept through thousands upon thousands of contestants in mere days, the number of participants plummeted dramatically faster than the organizers expected.
Merchants began panicking.
Restaurants and hotels, which had prepared for a three to four month event, suddenly realized the tournament might end in two months.
