For the first time, a look of profound shock appeared on his face, a face that was always as steady as a mountain.
He knew Nangong Xue's strength better than anyone.
'To be... defeated so cleanly?!'
He looked at Li Wen, his gaze growing graver than ever before. Within that gravity, a fierce battle intent began to burn.
In that moment, Li Wen's threat level in his mind skyrocketed to an unprecedented high.
The final duel.
On the vast virtual stage, only two people remained.
It was as if the air had been sucked out of the arena, leaving only the sound of their heavy, stifled breaths.
All the noise faded away. Countless eyes from across the colosseum, from across the entire Jiangnan province, were locked onto these two peak geniuses.
Chu Feng, the champion of the first provincial mock exam, and Li Wen, the dark horse who had appeared out of nowhere to decisively slay Nangong Xue.
Chu Feng said nothing. He simply raised his spear, its tip aimed at Li Wen from a distance.
