Our Journey 8 Final Stage

In this last stage selection, all partic.i.p.ant will show his martial arts abilities in combat tournament. The partic.i.p.ants will fight each other in a single-elimination where the loser of each match-up is immediately eliminated from the tournament. Each winner will fight another in the next round, until the final match-up, whose winner becomes the tournament champion.

The outcome of this battle tournament is not the main factor of selection. The participnats who lose at the beginning of the fight tournament are not immediately eliminated from this Royal Academy Military Selection. They can still pa.s.s the selection if they get good points in the previous stage. But who is the winner will enter the royal elite forces after graduation from academy.

The selection officer has set the battle schedule. My turn to fight is this morning. If I can wins today, I will enter eighth-finals in next day. I have seen the fight schedule board, but don't know who is my opponent. The schedule board only mentions that my opponent is number one. I asked the selection officer about that, but he refuse to answer.

He said that I was fit againts number one. He also reminded me about the important rules of this tournament. The partic.i.p.ants must not injure their opponent until their opponet get seriously injured. The person who does it will be eliminated from selection. Although not satisfied, I recieved the answer. I convinced myself that I could win.

"Liu Wei, what do you do? Don't daydream. Don't you hear that our w.a.n.gye (Prince in First Rank) will coming?" Zhang s.h.i.+yu said with low sounds. I nodded my head to answer him.

"Respect to our w.a.n.gye!" the selection officer talking loudly. All partic.i.p.ant bow his head to honor the Prince.

" May Heaven give a long life to Our w.a.n.gye!" we said loudly. After that, we raise our head. That I didn't imagine happened. I am surprised. On the podium the prince stand. His face is familiar to me. There is no mistaking that he was the man I had defeated in Springs House. He is Xiaoying sweetheart.

"Heavens! He is our w.a.n.gye?" I asked Zhang s.h.i.+yu who stands beside me. I see his face and he nodded. His face was pale.

"In this tournament, our w.a.n.gye will test one of you. After disscusing with him, we choice Liu Wei become an opponent to our w.a.n.gye in first match. Liu Wei, prepare your self! After our w.a.n.gye give his speech, you will fight with him," the selection head officer said on podium loudly. I just nodded because my shock.
