Chapter 1007 - Seven Spirit Sacredwood
In addition to Lu Yanghui, many others shared doubts about Liu Wuxie. Tang Hu, in particular, kept glaring at Liu Wuxie the entire time.
But since the young master had appointed him directly, no one dared to oppose his decision. Even so, none of them held any goodwill toward Liu Wuxie. No one could understand how someone like Liu Wuxie had suddenly become a disciple of the Renowned Sword Manor without prior notice.
It might have made sense if Liu Wuxie were a renowned expert hired from elsewhere, but his mediocre cultivation level made that hard to believe.
The group advanced and headed straight toward the Divine Sword Platform.
Liu Wuxie blended into the crowd, ignoring the strange looks and hushed whispers around him.
Two hours later, the group finally arrived at the Divine Sword Platform, where a massive crowd had already gathered to witness the long-awaited clash between the two manors.
"Have you all heard? Master Xue, the strongest swordsman in Northern City, might be attending the duel today." The crowd was already abuzz with chatter long before the duel's main participants arrived.
"I heard it too! I never thought I'd have the fortune to see Master Xue in person! It must be a blessing from the heavens!"
Everyone in Northern City recognized Master Xue's immense prestige. As the strongest swordsman, he had earned a title few could ever hope to achieve.
The organizers had erected numerous platforms around the lake to accommodate the swelling crowd. In addition to the regular viewing areas, they had arranged special guest seats for the local clans and dignitaries.
"Look! Isn't that Master Shi?" someone shouted, and excitement surged through the crowd like a wave.
