In front of the City Lord Mansion, there was complete silence.
The expressions on the faces of the Yexuan citizens watching were already frozen.
The smiles that originally hung on their faces now appeared somewhat stiff.
Clearly, Yexuan Country had already won two consecutive matches, and quite easily at that.
But why was it, facing this Shen Han from Great Wei, that Quan Youzhi couldn’t muster even the slightest bit of resistance...
On the Great Wei side, the people saw Shen Han make his move and easily secure the victory.
The pent-up frustration in their hearts had finally been relieved.
Before arriving, they never really considered Yexuan a threat at all.
Yet, at the start, they lost two matches in a row, which was unbearable for anyone.
Walking down from the platform, returning to the Great Wei crowd.
There was a look of admiration and gratitude in the eyes of everyone who glanced at Shen Han.
Especially Yu Xiaoyan from Mountain Sea Academy, who had been admonished by Quan Youzhi’s words earlier, even having a sword tip pressed to his brow.
This was clearly intended to be insulting.
"Thank you, Brother Shen, for relieving my anger.
Had I kept it suppressed, I would have been half-dead from the discomfort..."
Shen Han smiled and waved his hand.
"It’s a trivial matter.
Moreover, the reason Brother Yu lost to Quan Youzhi is not because he had superior strength.
He simply used some small tricks, employing a form of witchcraft to disrupt Brother Yu’s mental state.
If Brother Yu had understood witchcraft a little, he could have easily defeated him."
Hearing Shen Han’s explanation, everyone was momentarily stunned.
Witchcraft?
This seems to be a rare path of cultivation.
No wonder the scholars from Great Wei couldn’t identify it.
"Yesterday, Brother Shen reminded us to be cautious, yet we were too complacent..."
After Quan Youzhi’s victory, Shen Han’s companions looked at him with even more admiration.
"No wonder Brother Shen could surpass Miss Su in Sword Dao; I thought there might be a bit of luck involved.
But now, it seems Brother Shen truly deserves the title of prodigy."
The praise from people one after another made Shen Han a bit uncomfortable.
As they spoke, the City Lord of Yelan City stepped forward.
"Honored guests, Little Quan just fought and is in poor condition...
The City Lord intended to make excuses for Quan Youzhi, but Shen Han stepped forward.
"City Lord Yelan has a point. Let the other talents go on first, and give Brother Quan time to cultivate for a couple of hours.
Once he regains his strength, I, Shen Han, will be ready to compete at any time."
The City Lord originally wanted to use these words to slightly boost morale.
But now, Shen Han stepped up and declared.
He allows you to rest, and once rested, you can fight again at any time.
This absolute confidence made the people of Yexuan present very uncomfortable.
Uncomfortable as they were, they could only hold it in.
After all, just now when Shen Han attacked, Quan Youzhi couldn’t even defend himself.
Shen Han walked right up, pressing the sword tip against his brow...
After a moment of hesitation, Shen Han stepped forward in front of the City Lord Mansion again.
In his hand, he held a Sword Shadow, glaring bright, flashing with a sharp glimmer.
The City Lord of Yelan squinted slightly before waving his hand.
Another young man stepped forward.
His tactics were similar to Quan Youzhi’s, both liked to use witchcraft for sneaky harassment.
But the methods that worked before would not always be effective.
Shen Han using just the Sword Shadow in his hand was enough to cut down the eerie assault of witchcraft.
As he walked up to the person, this person had scolded below, questioning loudly why Quan Youzhi didn’t fight back, not even making a move to resist.
But now he finally understood, it wasn’t that Quan Youzhi didn’t want to move, but he simply couldn’t.
