Chapter 13: The Request
The Red Pine sect master was the first to find his voice.
He stood up in his tier and looked down at the young man on the grass.
"Guan Shuo of Jade Spring has left the stage," he said. "The Peak Meeting goes to Meng Lian, unsponsored."
The summit didn't cheer.
Five sects were still staring at the gray in the golden disciple's arms.
Then one voice went up from the west edge of the stage.
It was the girl with the stammer, and she wasn't stammering.
She was shouting Lian's name.
The twins took it up, and then the head carrier.
Then all forty carriers were shouting it with their scarred hands in the air.
In the outer-court seats, Xiu was standing on the bench and screaming it louder than any of them.
Guan Shuo got up off the grass.
He held his bare gray arms against his chest and walked away through the Jade Spring tiers.
The disciples he passed leaned away from him.
On the dais, the Sect Master hadn't moved.
The Red Pine sect master turned to her.
"By the law of the Meeting, the winner asks the host one request before all five sects."
