[Pandaren RP] The 5th Celestial Tournament 07/10 - 10/10

Notices are pinned on boards in various inns around the continent, inviting locals to come and join the festivities of the fifth quarterly Celestial Tournament. A faded tracing of Yu’lon accompanies the text written within.
“Warm greetings to all, the Celestial Circle would like to invite all locals to join them at the Shrine of Fellowship in the jade forest for four days starting on 07/10 of festivities where we are holding our fifth quarterly tournament to find out which Celestial most favors us now. A champion of Yu’lon took the title last time, will they be able to hold it? Come along to find out! Maybe it will be you who will be crowned champion? There will be fights to watch, food and drink to be had, other games and festivities! Hope to see you there!
~Sujee Springbreeze of the Celestial Circle”

Day 1 of the 5th Celestial Tournament took place last night!

It was the beginning of the melee with the first four fights, and the Niuzaos drinking contest!

Melee brackets and Winners!
1st round
Munchie V Ji-Min: Ji-Min
Dae V Faoyan: Dae
Sujee V Mo-Shan: Sujee
Koail V Zhou: Zhou

With the first round of fighting over, the fighters would move onto the semi finals the next day, but before then, Food and meals where served by Khinah of the Golden Keg. Niuzios game was played afterwards! A drinking contest with many that lined up to enter, but in the end after several rounds it was Vi who had the fortitude to persevere to the end, claiming the trophy for the nights side game!

And with that the first day drew to a close, the following day would see the semi-finals take place as well as the Yu’lons Trail of Wisdom side game, a quest to collect hidden items throughout the Forest!

Today is sunday and that means a day for Chi-Ji the Red Crane.
Today is also the final of the melee prowess which is a fight between Ji-Min and Dae, an exciting matchup to be sure.
I have great hopes to see many friendly faces at the shrine tonight.
