Rebirth vs. Rebirth: Tragedy to Triumph

Chapter 297 Updates

Lucy was taken aback to see Violeta on this stage.

Vivian was also surprised and scoffed, “Grace really overdid it, bringing her student, whom she’s barely trained for two years, to compete. Does she think her student is some kind of dance prodigy? It was as if two years could stack up to ten years of hard work.
