A brief battle had shown a select few just how formidable Qin Heng was.
But the first round was not, after all, a "fully public" event. Viewing angles were fixed, with no god's-eye view for everyone to freely inspect the battles of experts from every direction. Other than members of the two sides themselves, no one knew that Tie Xiwu had lost to Qin Heng.
Having fought a worthwhile battle, Qin Heng's expectations for the Juegu Dynasty's prodigies dropped somewhat.
