Chapter 53
“Good news! Good news! The 300,000 Dragon-Leopard Cavalry of Zhenyao (Demon-Suppressing) City has breached the border city of the Wanxiang Demon Kingdom!”
“Three hundred thousand Dragon-Leopard Cavalry killed 200,000 enemies! The enemy’s of Yacheng has been razed by over half!”
“Xu Xue Nuo of Wu Kingdom has sharpened her life-bound flying sword, Qingming, stepped into the Sea Observation realm, and ranks eighth on the Qingyun List!”
“Zhou Shu! Zhou Shu! The imperial exam system has been reformed! Any individual, regardless of background, can now participate in the exams!”
“Regardless of class or status—legitimate or illegitimate—everyone is eligible to take the exams! Only talent matters!”
On the streets of Wudu, young “newsboys” ran tirelessly, selling copies of Zhou Shu, their faces brimming with pride and excitement.
Whether it was teahouses, inns, or even brothels, the news sparked cheers and applause. The Wanxiang Demon Kingdom dared to commit an assassination in Wudu? Naturally, Wu Kingdom would respond with thunderous retaliation!
Wu Kingdom doesn’t hold grudges overnight! Do they think the men of Wu Kingdom lack the courage to avenge themselves?
Besides the triumph in Zhenyao City, Xu Xue Nuo’s achievement brought shared pride to the people of Wu Kingdom.
