章 71: Challenge Fang Zhengzhi

The venue was naturally still the Qingfeng Academy, however, the location had shifted to the combat square behind the academy. Three huge stages neatly occupied the vast combat square.

Behind the stage, was where the judges of the combat examination sat.

Imperial Messenger Qin sat in the centre seat, while two others sat beside him. One of them wore a black official robe, from the embroidery on his official robe, he seemed like the county head of the Huai An County.

The other was dressed like a scholar, around forty-six to forty-seven years of age, his tiny eyes were half opened and a few crops of white hair were evident at near his temples.

A few invigilators waited below the stage, waiting for the gong signifying the start of the combat examination to sound out.
