Feng Buqing's frank admission of defeat had at least salvaged a little of his reputation in the depths of his greatest adversity.
Yet what it brought was the settling of the dust on the facts!
The pride of Tai Yu's Southern Suppression Army, a genius of humble origins who had defied fate to rise, leapt into Kanglong Chen Palace, and possessed the Soulwind Hunyuan Eyes... had lost to Li Tianming, who came from "lowly" stock.
That was right. Feng Buqing's birth was low, but he still counted as an ordinary person. Li Tianming did not even count as ordinary; calling him a wild commoner of base blood would not have been excessive.
