As the referee announced the result, the stadium went silent. It was only a few seconds later when loud, thunderous applause erupted.
No matter how unbelievable or questionable it was, when the referee announced Kimura Kazuki's victory after much inspection, it meant that the incident of Kageyama Ichiro's bamboo sword being slashed into two was a question of Kimura Kazuki's true strength.
Throughout the history of Jade Dragon Flag, there was never a case of cheating or cover-up. It was clear that the referee could not believe it as well. That was why he asked to check the bamboo sword, but after confirming that the quality of the bamboo sword was not compromised, the final call was the reality no matter how unbelievable it was.
"So awesome!"
"How strong was the force needed to slash a bamboo sword into two?"
