The elimination of Ding Qiushui was the prologue to the Sword Hut selections. Everyone grew nervous.
Lu Shu did not expect Sun Zhongyang to leak the news that he had advanced to Rank One… he had failed to break into the ranks of the Rank Twos.
Not only that, he had been ranked first as a Rank Two. But at that moment, Ding Qiushui was the strongest. Thus, everyone was unhappy with Lu Shu's ranking, but saw Ding Qiushui as the most troublesome candidate.
They were unhappy, but did not plan anything that targeted him. After all, he was only a Rank Two. Even the losses that the people inside and outside the palace had made in the gambling dens, it was nothing compared to the importance of the Sword Hut selections.
Who would calculate the money they had lost in the past during the Sword Hut selections? They would definitely get rid of their past resentment and calmly think about who to target.
