"We won!" As the shichen struck signifying the end, Jadeite was the first to cheer, and those who had bet on the right outcome also began to clap their hands.
Wufu watched Ah Jiu with a smile and said, "Ninth Master, I'm sorry to see you've lost a hefty sum!" With a wave of his hand, he commanded, "Boys, divide the money."
The crowd cheered and watched as Jadeite took a small pile of Silver and silver notes from Hoo Die's side—dividing the spoils.
Hoo Die felt both dejected and too ashamed to face Ah Jiu and the others, too humiliated!
Wufu walked up to him with a smile, patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said, "Don't be downhearted, losing to this lady doesn't count as a loss. After all, I'm like a 'cheat' activated!"
"What do you mean?" Hoo Die glared.
"It means that the lady has mastered certain principles of spearing fish." Wufu wasn't stingy with her teachings.
