Before Hattori Minami took action,
not only did he himself, but also everyone in the council hall, believed that Hattori Minami would certainly win.
After all, Hattori Minami was a once-in-a-century genius of the Hattori Family, having already reached the Peak of Earth Rank Middle Stage at a young age, and even qualified to inherit the title of Hattori Hanzo in the future.
Therefore, before this, no one thought that Hattori Minami could lose, and their confidence in him was almost overflowing.
However, now, the young samurai actually said that Hattori Minami had lost.
This explosive news was a heavy blow to everyone's confidence, leaving them unable to react for a short while.
It was a long time before anyone spoke.
Hattori Masao took a deep breath and, with a grim expression, looked at the young samurai and asked, "Is everything you just said true?"
"Clan Leader, my words are true. Everything I saw with my own eyes. If there's any falsehood, may thunder strike me down!"
