"Junior, what do you think?"
Yue Xu waited on the spot for a while but received no response, growing a bit impatient.
"Sorry, please allow me to think it over."
Zhuo Buping looked distressed.
"...Okay, there's still some time before the competition starts, you can take your time to think."
Yue Xu, feeling disgruntled, spoke harshly before turning away.
A moment later, Zhuo Buping's companion came over:
"Yue Xu wants you to... not go all out?"
Yue Xu's reason for approaching Zhuo Buping at this time was indeed easy to guess.
"Yes."
Zhuo Buping nodded.
"So, did you agree?"
The companion asked with concern.
Zhuo Buping shook his head: "I said I needed to think it over."
"Come on, you!"
The companion was speechless.
What's there to think about in this situation?
You don't stand much of a chance to begin with, what's wrong with losing the match as expected?
You could even make connections with top-tier nobility like Yue Xu, which could be very beneficial in the future.
