Before long, the news that King Lu Zhe had ordered Huang Peng to be appointed as a Great Duke spread like wildfire, and the entire Lutong Royal City was seething with excitement.
"Huang Peng? Huang Xiaolong's father? Even if Huang Xiaolong represented the Luotong Kingdom at the Imperial City battle in the Broken Blade Empire and won first place, King Lu Zhe can't simply appoint Huang Peng as a Great Duke, can he?!"
"Indeed, and Huang Xiaolong hasn't even won first place yet! He hasn't broken through to the Innate realm; it might even be a problem for him to place in the top ten!"
"Has King Lu Zhe's head been kicked by a mule?"
All parties were discussing fervently.
Even some of the common folk in the Royal City were talking non-stop, feeling that King Lu Zhe must have gone mad.
