Lu Mingshu; seventy-three points; Wei Chunqiu, sixty-four points; Kou Wei, sixty-three points.

......

Day five ended, and the elites still in the top ten were drained of energy from the tiring day.

Shao Zhengyang took a look at his ranking on the name list and sighed – fourteen. Two wins and one loss today.

His ranking fluctuated throughout the day, and his flesh was becoming weaker than his willing spirit. Shao Zhengyang knew that his ability wasn't there, and his chance of getting into the top ten was small.

Even though he was unwilling to give up, he knew he should if the same situation persisted tomorrow.

Lu Mingshu went into the Heavenly Wheel as soon as she got back to her room. The matches had drained almost all her energy, so she was dead-tired. All she wanted to do now was have a good sleep and recharge.

However, her desire wouldn't be fulfilled; she received a message from Kou Wei to meet, so Lu Mingshu dragged her tired body and went along with Shao Zhengyang to the Heavenly Sea Pavilion's courtyard.

There weren't many present today; only Yue Lingyin, Lan Ruoyun, and a few more who were closer to Kou Wei.

All of them looked exhausted. Seeing each other's dead-tired face, they burst out laughing. This made the atmosphere livelier.

"Everyone's tired, so let's just not care about manners." Kou Wei laughed and pointed to the couch nearby. "Lie however you want there. Let's talk in a comfortable position."

Yue Lingyin was the first one to rush over. "Yay! Come along girls, this couch is now ours." She then pulled Lu Mingshu and Lan Ruoyun over.

"Haish, I'm so tired." Qi Sheng allowed himself to sink into a chair and rest.

Kou Wei looked at him ridiculously. "We are tired because we have been working hard for an entire day. How much have you fought today, huh?"

Qi Sheng was a pharmacologist, so he was only in the Qilin Festival to join the fun. He only fought three matches during the whole festival.

"I feel tired from watching you guys!" He huffed. "When each of you goes up, I'm super worried for you all! Worrying is more tiring than competing!"

"Whatever, Little Brother Qi. You're the most tired, okay?" Yue Lingyin did not even have the energy to bicker with him. "Senior Brother Kou, make it fast okay? I'm gonna fall asleep soon."

Kou Wei smiled and shook his head. He coughed and started being serious. "It's the sixth day tomorrow, and if everything goes well, the top ten should be fixed by tomorrow."

All of them nodded. If they had to fight one more day, they would be reaching their limit.

"Me and Wei Chunqiu is a must fight, and both of us know it well in our hearts. It should be the seventh day." Kou Wei pointed out. "So, tomorrow is our warm up, and we must be able to get enough points by then."

Yue Lingyin waved her hand lazily. "Senior Brother Kou, just challenge me if you need points. My points now are enough for me to remain in the top ten even if I lose a match."

Kou Wei shook his head. "Everybody knows how close we are – we're like blood siblings. How much gossip would I stir up if I challenged you?"

"What's there to gossip about?" Yue Lingyin rolled her eyes. "We aren't from the same sect anyway, it's not against the rules."
