Shi Nian won in a daze, and then, still in a daze, was surrounded by everyone in the middle.
Many people were asking Shi Nian about her number.
In the upcoming second round of the drawing, everyone wanted to draw Shi Nian.
"May the heavens bless me. I must draw Shi Nian!" someone murmured while holding three sticks of incense.
"I am willing to trade ten pounds of meat for the chance to draw Shi Nian. Please let it be so." someone howled to the sky.
"Sister Shi Nian, you've brought welfare to all of us by turning Ling Tian Peak into our spiritual home. Please, let me draw you!" someone provided a perfect reason for wanting to draw Shi Nian.
Feeling the enthusiasm of the crowd, Shi Nian was momentarily at a loss for words.
She cleared her throat gently, "I'm number 37."
"Number 37, number 37, please let me draw number 37!"
"Sister Shi, don't get me wrong. It's not that I think you're weak, it's just that we've never sparred before and I want to have a bout with you."
