Chapter 458: A Game

Despite the crowded square, there was not a hint of clamor.

Only occasional whispers could be heard, as the crowd critiqued and commented on their techniques.

From time to time, the clanging of swords and knives echoed on the platform, followed by the explosive sounds of colliding forces.
