This was quite the plot twist.
Initially, no one had thought much about Fang Zhengzhi’s challenge against Chi Guyan. After all, the difference between rank 1 and 53 was too great.
However...
Now that he was in the top 10... things were slightly different.
Furthermore, according to eyewitnesses, the battle was not as intense as imagined. After a few rounds, Yu Wengu was defeated.
Many of those who were not as powerful as Yu Wengu began to worry.
They had no qualms about schooling someone of lower ability than them. However, if this man was powerful enough to rank in the top 10 of the Rising Dragon Roll...
Who would be this masochistic?
No one was a fool.

Inside the capital, carriages stopped in front of the Crown Prince’s residence every so often.
Inside the residence, all of the officials sat around drinking tea. They discussed various political issues, but no one discussed Fang Zhengzhi.
