Seeing Bai Xi carry such a massive burlap sack with a brisk, weightless stride, the onlookers were astounded.
"This kid looks scrawny, but who would have thought he'd have so much strength? Even if I could lift such a huge bag of grain, I definitely wouldn't make it look this easy."
"Tell me about it! He's not even panting. This kid's got some real skills."
Hou Mingxi stood on the city tower, silently watching the scene below.
"Sir, this kid has a solid stance and moves with agility. He doesn't look like a peasant; he looks more like he comes from a martial arts family," the uniformed adjutant beside Hou Mingxi observed. Then, shaking his head, he added, "It's a pity he's Qi Ba's man."
"Could a piece of trash like Qi Ba really recruit someone like this?" Hou Mingxi's expression was calm, but his brow was furrowed with severity.
"Could it be the Lin Family? They're overreaching," the adjutant said in surprise.
