Chapter 106 - 103: June Assessment
Above the square, the crowd watched the scene on the stage with shocked gazes. The defeat of Cao Qiudao had caught many by surprise; beforehand, no one had ever imagined that this powerful figure, infamous throughout Green Sun County, would ultimately be defeated by a young man who appeared to be just over twenty...
However, no matter how unbelievable it was in their hearts, when they saw the figure kneeling on the ground before their very eyes, they could only forcefully suppress the astonishment in their hearts with reason, and then turn their shocked gazes toward the young figure on the stage.
Everyone understood that the crucial contest between the Cao and Tang families had ended with the Tang family’s victory.
"He actually won..."
Tang Zhen muttered to himself, his palms trembling continuously, evidently extremely excited, and his eyes were also filled with joy and ecstasy.
"I knew Brother Ye Xuan would win."
Puffing out her little chest, Tang Xiaoyan also revealed a smile, the slight worry in her eyes completely vanishing.
"This sword seems to have a whiff of a Heavenly Grade weapon..."
On the other side, Nie Tao was recalling the moment Ye Xuan drew his sword; the power of that one strike was simply too great. If it were him, he would only have suffered a crushing defeat under that strike, and the aura released from that sword clearly surpassed the fluctuations of an Earth-grade weapon.
Of course, he was not yet certain, but if it was as he speculated, then it was a bit too shocking, as a Heavenly Grade weapon was typically a cherished weapon only possessed by Martial Sect Masters. Swords that could be classified as Heavenly Grade were almost all famous weapons, and there were only a few of them in the entire Tiannan Region.
