Of course, the new envoy from Yuan Country could speak endlessly, yet Emperor Xuanjing seemed not to hear a word, with his eyelids drooping and not even bothering to raise them.
Jiu E beside him felt extremely awkward, but the new envoy totally ignored him, eventually just bowing his head and letting the other deliver his grand speech.
The new envoy, called Jin Mai, rambled on for ages but received no acknowledgment from the Emperor, finally sighing and nodding helplessly, "Our king agrees to the proposal of His Majesty, the Emperor of Daxuan, for a public competition."
"Couldn't you just agree earlier? Wasting so much time," Qi Jingyi couldn't help but mutter, "I've got calluses on my ears." Although it seemed like he was talking to himself, everyone in the hall heard it clearly.
Jin Mai felt awkward for a moment but didn't say much more.
