Chapter 896 Deserved To Be The Winner

When Alyssa finished speaking, she walked straight ahead and brushed past Rocky. Seeing that he remained frozen in place, she urged, "Let's go. What are you waiting for? If you don't come, I'll just go without you." Then, she turned around and continued walking.

'Why do women always say one thing and mean another?' Rocky wondered, shaking his head with a bitter smile as he watched Alyssa's back. It would save him a lot of trouble if he could heal his wounds with Alyssa, and he had been hoping that she would have the same line of thought.

He knew that Alyssa already knew a lot of his secrets, so she might "torture" him to find out more, but he still followed her because he needed to confirm a few things.

At dawn the next day...

In the Qi Clan's mansion, many people had stayed up all night because Alyssa had suddenly taken Rocky away and hadn't returned. Needless to say, a lot of rumors would spring up about the two of them if they didn't come back soon.

Besides, the final result of the competition had not been announced by Alyssa yet, so the winner of the Beast Master Contest was still uncertain, and no one knew who would win.

In the wing house where members of the Cao Clan lived, Woods and the members of the Cao Clan had also stayed up the whole night, waiting for Alyssa and Rocky to return. Their disappearance had put all of them on edge.

"Your Royal Highness, why haven't Mr. Rookie and Her Royal Highness come back yet? Could they be in trouble?" Lucilla asked worriedly. As the chief of the Cao Clan, she was the most concerned about their disappearance. After all, to the Cao Clan, Rocky was like a priceless treasure. Even if the Cao Clan did end up losing the Beast Master Contest, it would not be a bad thing for them, since they had gotten this chance to find out about Rocky's hidden talents and abilities.

Woods shook his head, frowning. He also had a feeling that something was wrong. He knew that no matter how much his sister and Rocky had to talk about, they couldn't possibly talk all night long. What was more, his sister was so decisive tha

r continued.

"I've already told you that it will be announced when my sister returns," Woods said impatiently. "I know.

But people all over the capital are talking about what happened yesterday. I think it's better if the result was announced as soon as possible in order to avoid unnecessary suspicion and trouble. Don't you think so?" Samson asked.

"Master Samson is right. Since Her Royal Highness has not shown up yet, it is likely that she will not come back anytime soon. We are the five judges of the beast curing competition, so it is reasonable for us to announce the result in her place," one of the five judges said, rising to his feet.

"Then what's your decision?" Woods asked, raising an eyebrow.

The judge who had spoken looked at his companions before turning back to Woods. "Although the beast master of the Cao Clan managed to bring the spirit-manipulated beast back to life and completed the competition, we can't overlook the fact that he caused the beast to die first, whether accidentally or deliberately in order to attract attention. Therefore, to ensure the fairness of the competition, we've decided after a night of discussion that the final winner should be the Qi Clan. After all, the beast master of the Qi Clan, Tate, didn't make any mistakes in the last round of the competition, and his performance was outstanding. So, he deserves to be the winner."
