Although Xiliu and Kavoline only clashed once, the intensity was truly astounding, drawing the attention of many. By the afternoon, the events at Fangling Hall had already spread throughout the Sky Mechanical City.
In itself, this wasn't a major incident. After all, Xiliu and Kavoline were merely testing their weapons, and nothing serious came out of it. Moreover, the duel took place in a private residential district, so the Enforcement Squad didn't impose any penalties. Yet, because there were so many witnesses, Xiliu's Ice Whip, dazzling in his hands, and the presence of Glenn at Fangling Hall led many to immediately associate the scene with the top-three customized items of the Nova Competition.
As a result, rumors that Xiliu's Ice Whip was a custom creation from the Research and Development Institute began to spread like wildfire.
