disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the end, how could it be Shen Han who won...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only the people of Qi Country are upset, even those of Yan Country feel disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly just a bit short, how did it end up like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the eyes of many, it was luck that meddled in the result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han pretended to be panting heavily, then looked towards Prince Qingyuan’s personal guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, before Shen Han spoke, he had already understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly walked to the center of the field and led another carriage back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fully-loaded carriage, four in total...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Shen Han had thought, as soon as they started fighting, he began to show signs of falling behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he dared to accept the challenge, why would they not dare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No time for Shen Han to catch his breath, on the Yan Country side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A resource-laden carriage was led up, and yet another nobleman stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding a folding fan, looking like a graceful prince.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing each other, this nobleman from Yan Country was very poised, showing courtesy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a gentle smile on his face, but saying nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such demeanor attracted several glances from the women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he swung the folding fan in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The landscapes painted on the fan unfolded abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A phantom of a towering mountain oppressed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han feigned a clumsy dodge, even his sword shadow smashed into those phantoms, all shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people of Great Wei already saw it, this nobleman from Yan Country was already in the Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gap in strength and realm laid bare, this time Shen Han seemed unlikely to win.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing this round costs a carriage of resources, but overall he won three back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not bad...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd already had expectations, yet in the field, Shen Han persisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless phantoms surrounded him, advancing relentlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han’s face showed worry, without any trace of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky started to darken, this nobleman from Yan Country seemed eager to end this farce sooner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a concentrated mind, he prepared to suppress Shen Han with overwhelming phenomena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But right at that moment, Shen Han’s sword passed through the mountain phenomena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword’s edge sharp, gleaming with cold light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could already feel the chill at his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the young man from Qi Country before, defeated at the last moment...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Prince Qingyuan’s guard rushed in and dragged away a carriage of resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fifth carriage...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winning continuously against two, although the victories were hard-fought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the perception of Shen Han by the people of Qi and Yan Countries drastically changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Shen Han is tougher to subdue than imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when at a disadvantage, this terrifying perseverance seizing the opportunity...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there is no reason for the people of the Qi and Yan Countries to fear, this kind of wheel battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Shen Han’s strength slightly exceeds theirs, he cannot keep winning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While contemplating, another from Qi Country took up the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sparring lasted nearly three quarters of an hour, with Shen Han suppressed very awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But oddly, Shen Han was victorious again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In three consecutive bouts, the results were the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unwilling to believe, but the crowd began to suspect Shen Han might be doing this deliberately...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panting heavily, Shen Han pretended to be in a difficult situation, speaking once more: \"Is there anyone else willing to duel with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tone remained indifferent but to the people of Great Wei, it resonated powerfully, full of swagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when the news, this phrase, returned to the capital city of Great Wei, the citizens felt not only immense satisfaction but also a sudden surge of pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the crowd, various rumors began spreading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is said that Minister Yingtian Elder Chu accused Shen Han of being surrounded by misfortune for self-gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at it now, is Shen Han an omen of misfortune?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He has won back six carriages of resources for Great Wei!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this is misfortune, one wonders what would be considered auspicious then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally loyal officials, now changed to polarized opinions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the competition venue in Ming City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han stood among it, gazing towards the people of Qi and Yan Countries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for a while, no one entered the field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the spectators from Great Wei around the competition venue, there was genuine satisfaction in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Shen Han’s sole effort, he directly won back six full carriages of resources!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though calculating it, Great Wei remains in a deficit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But winning back so much, it was already commendable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides winning resources back, Great Wei regained its dignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Shen Han’s efforts here, perhaps in the coming years, not just Qi and Yan might look down on Great Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even those small countries might not respect Great Wei as they did before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s getting late, if no one steps up, this competition will end here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han panted but maintained a calm demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After winning six consecutive rounds, who under the age of twenty-two would dare to duel with Shen Han?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a cross-level victory already parallels Shen Ye’s performance four years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who mocked Shen Han before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Country’s Nanfeng Lin and Yan Country’s Zhu Mingxiang, both showed unpleasant expressions now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If no one, then I shall take my leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, Shen Han waved his hand, signaling the senior guards to drag away the resources carriage back to Great Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just as the personal guard senior grabbed the reins, Zhu Mingxiang leaped out from the opposite side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a long spear in hand, she thrust it straight into the stone slab before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The force was fierce, far stronger than those before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can I have a spar with you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Mingxiang maintained her cold expression, but this time, her eyes slightly took in Shen Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she spoke, the crowd from Great Wei began to noisily protest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their words were calling Zhu Mingxiang shameless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being four years older than Shen Han, she had every advantage, who would dare compete with her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps she realized her invitation was inappropriate, so she pondered a moment before speaking again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I win, I only demand one cart of resources. If I lose, I will lose two carts to Wei Country, how does that sound?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Zhu Mingxiang spoke, the crowd from Great Wei still mocked her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With so many advantages, it’s not easy for her to lose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two carts won’t do, then let’s say four carts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing your utter lack of respect for your elder brother, it seems you consider your own strength to rival his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Shen Ye dared to battle me, then you, Shen Han, should dare as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Mingxiang’s tone remained indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She greatly esteemed Shen Ye, after all, Shen Ye had once defeated her, winning both her heart and mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Shen Han, in her eyes, was far inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Shen Han prepared to speak in the competition arena, the leader from Great Wei’s delegation entered swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rapidly approached Shen Han: \"Do not accept her challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Zhu Mingxiang is already so many years older than you, truly to compete, wait another thirty years for everyone to practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she holds too many advantages over you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, Zhu Mingxiang is not only older than you, she is also the strongest young talent in Yan Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t do anything foolish.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tutor showed signs of worry on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Shen Han had already performed excellently, no need to battle her again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just let Yan and Qi Country fail, leaving them frustrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Shen Han’s unbeaten record would invigorate the Great Wei people greatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing the words from the tutor of Great Wei, Zhu Mingxiang stepped forth again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Within two ke, if I haven’t defeated you, then you can consider it a victory for yourself, how about it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under these conditions, you only need to avoid my spear to have a chance of winning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, if you win, Yan Country will lose four carts of fully loaded resources to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Mingxiang added yet another condition, seemingly favorable to Shen Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the leader by his side had grown even more stern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Han, her confidence in winning within two ke surely means she has a plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t fall for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Shen Han smiled at the leader beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She has confidence in defeating me, and I too have confidence in defeating her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you for your guidance, but please, let me try this once.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han showed courtesy and spoke earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Shen Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze was firm, showing no sign of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart was still worried, but eventually, he stepped aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han had already won six carts of resources for Great Wei; losing once wouldn’t be such a big deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Shen Han daring to challenge Zhu Mingxiang, a genius four years his senior, was commendable in and of itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This bravery alone warranted praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having made up his mind, Shen Han looked towards Zhu Mingxiang before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, bring forth the four carts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han remained indifferent to this woman named Zhu Mingxiang, harboring more dislike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They met by chance with no connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing about the conflict between him and Shen Ye, her words turned derogatory towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the edge of the competition arena, the Yan Country already brought forth four carts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Shen Han could win against her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calculating it, Shen Han would have won back ten carts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, Great Wei’s competition would no longer suffer losses but gain a profit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this was only if...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re more formidable than I imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps that is why you are somewhat confident you can surpass Shen Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I still want to advise you, there remains a significant gap between you and Shen Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is one of the few who have ever combined Scholar’s Skill and Martial Arts Technique most effectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, he might even establish a sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hurting him brings no benefit to your Shen Family or your Great Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, harming him, you rely on those underhanded methods like hidden weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you have true skill, you should defeat him by your own power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Zhu Mingxiang finished her words, she drew out her spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear tip gleamed like blood, casting a mere glance revealed its majesty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lengthy words, Shen Han heard with nothing more than a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her mind, the image of Shen Ye was towering and perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently only others would harm him;
