Having the Upper Hand

In the television broadcast studio, a huge countdown number was ticking as the seconds passed by. The nerves of countless people across the planet were left hanging.

This was the three-hour countdown timer that the television station had set up after Fang Xingjian gave his reply.

Over one hour ago, a great unknown explosion occurred in the extreme north. The entire Heaven-Connecting Tower had turned into nothingness, and the land within a range of 100 lis had turned into charred land.

Then over half an hour ago, a battle broke out above Central Asia's desert. It was suspected that there were commander-level people involved in the battle.

These two pieces of news immediately spread across the world, garnering the attention of countless people.

It was a pity that no one from the armies provided any further information thereafter. The media could only continue to investigate these cases through their own channels.
