Chen Ku listened as the person beside him listed the ten top experts of Baojiao County. Among these ten, the Imperial Court surprisingly accounted for three: the unmatched County Magistrate Shangguan, followed by Counselor Sui You and Sharp Blade. That Sharp Blade—the 'sharp' in his name signified not only the speed of his blade but also his position as chief of constables.
But what Chen Ku hadn't expected was that among the ten top experts, Medicine King Hall actually had two. One was the senior from North Yang, Yang Luochen. The other was Chai Bao, the instructor from the Dragon Tiger Leopard. Chen Ku had met Chai Bao before. Although Chen Ku hadn't encountered Senior Yang Luochen in the hall, he guessed his Skyward Strike most likely originated from this second-ranked expert in the county.
"Miss Sui has arrived! The banquet can begin now," Chai Tiangui announced excitedly, ushering everyone to their seats.
