However, none of that mattered anymore. For the Xi family, it was of utmost importance that one of the five finalists was a member of the Xi family.
After all, the Xi family's reputation and honor were at stake.
The Mayor retracted his shocked gaze and turned to the First Elder beside him. The latter immediately stepped forward and announced, "Xi Mengdie wins."
Only then did Xi Mengdie stop all her actions and return to her original delicate and gentle appearance. She faced the opponent who had been forced off the stage and softly said, "Thank you for letting me win." Only then did she slowly walk off the stage.
Although it could be said that she had lost all her face, she had won. This was the final result.
Therefore, she didn't think there was a need for her to feel embarrassed. Under the gazes of the crowd, she walked back to the Xi family's area.
The three Elders nodded their heads at her, which was their affirmation of her abilities.
The smug look on Xi Mengdie's face deepened.
She put away the arrogance of winning the competition, and then her eyes were filled with a trace of viciousness as she looked hatefully at the competition stage.
She did win the competition today, but she also lost the battle, so she was a little unhappy.
Next up was the match between Schilling's Shadow and Young Master Lee. As the saying went, there was only a difference when there was a comparison. She wanted Schilling's Shadow to look a hundred times worse than her so that she could wash away the image of herself in everyone's mind.
The Lee family and the Xi family were separated by two family areas, but Young Master Lee purposely came to the Xi family area to ask for credit from Xi Mengdie.
He had an obvious flattering smile on his face as he stared at Xi Mengdie with lustful eyes.
She nodded slightly at him and said softly, "Please show mercy, Young Master Lee." She acted like an elder sister.
Young Master Lee threw his head back and laughed. "Third Miss, if my opponent was you, I would definitely show mercy. But this ugly piece of trash … Well, let's see if she has the luck to do so."
Young Master Lee said arrogantly as he laughed maniacally. With victory within his grasp, he had already revealed that he would show no mercy to Schilling's Shadow.
Third Elder frowned and glanced at Young Master Lee disapprovingly. Then, he turned to the crowd and shouted, "Miss Nine, Schilling's Shadow, please come up to the stage."
No one answered.
Third Elder thought that his voice was already loud enough, but he didn't expect Xi Nuoying to not hear him, so he repeated himself.
Still, there was no reply.
He looked suspiciously at the Xi family's area. Everyone followed his gaze and looked at the Xi family's leader.
The Xi family's leader turned around. "Where's Nuo Ying's Shadow?"
The Xi family members looked at each other, no one answered.
Third Elder walked from the back of the group to Patriarch Xi's side. He shook his head and said, "I can't find her. Looks like she's not late today, she probably didn't even show up." There wasn't even a trace of her.
The Xi family's leader frowned. Did Nuo Ying give up on the competition?
"Grandfather, could it be that Sister Nine thinks she can't win the competition, so she …" Xi Mengdie lowered her voice and looked worriedly at the Xi family's leader, seeking an answer.
The Xi family's leader's expression was heavy. Schilling's Shadow wouldn't have run away, would he?
"Did you hear that? So that piece of trash ran away." A mocking voice came from next door.
Xi Mengdie's beautiful face turned pale. She covered her mouth with her veil, and there was a faint panic in her eyes.
"Grandfather, Mengdie … knows she's wrong."
