"So he's Master Cheng's student."
The man sighed. Cheng Zitong had left Central City, but the student he taught had returned and even defeated the most formidable peer of their generation. So, was his choice back then really a mistake?
He glanced back. Many of the older people in the hall knew what had happened. On the surface, they said nothing, but in private, they had scorned Cheng Zitong's choice, even using it as a cautionary tale for the younger generation. But now…
He chuckled. 'Looks like few people will be bringing that up again,' he thought. 'Otherwise, they'd just be eating their own words.'
Xiaojing, beside him, wasn't concerned with any of that. She just stared worriedly in the direction where Liu Yin had fallen. She truly hadn't expected Liu Yin to lose, and so quickly at that. She muttered to herself, 'Next time, I have to tell Brother Liu Yin not to fight with his back to the west!'
