The rain in Mingquan Town was drizzling today, casting a layer of gloom in the hearts of everyone in the council hall.
The theatrical fight was a gamble, a wager with Xinzhou City as its stake; it was massive, a matter of being enshrined in history or being despised by the world, weighing on the hearts of the envoys from both sides like a heavy stone.
The council chamber was quiet and oppressive, the candles on the high platform still managed to look dim.
The envoys from both sides presented the lacquered cases to the desk in the center, which were checked by the envoys from both sides, then handed over to the Crown Prince of Yunchuan. After reviewing them, he sealed them and hung them above the main beam as a sign of solemnity.
The order of the test questions was determined by drawing lots.
The whole process was just and open, with no way to cheat.
Feng Yun sat in the side room, waiting for the results, just like most people.
