"Junior Sister Li, aren't you chasing the rankings today?"
Zhong Yi was surprised to see Li Moran seated among the spectators too.
It would have been one thing for anyone else, but Li Moran was currently Spirit Cloud Sect's highest-ranked competitor.
Even after being targeted time and again, she still held third place.
The others did not need to push their rankings, but Li Moran was different.
Every move she made could shape the final standings.
If she skipped even one day, someone might pull ahead of her.
"It's fine."
Li Moran shook her head.
She did not care about the others joining forces to suppress her.
From beginning to end, Li Moran had never considered that underhanded bunch her opponents.
The only person worth chasing was Lu Ze.
So when she heard Lu Ze was competing, she gave up her chance to compete today without a second thought and joined the spectators instead.
She was curious what surprises Lu Ze might have in store for her in a formal match.
The match was still loading, and the Spirit Cloud Sect disciples began wondering aloud:
"True Disciple Lu only has five hundred thousand to spend... What do you think he'll bring in?"
"Isn't it obvious? He's going in with a knife! Why else wouldn't he match with teammates?"
"Since when was True Disciple Lu so kind?"
"Shh... The Illusion Realm isn't beyond the law, especially here..."
The Elders and True Disciples were having much the same discussion.
"Old Zhong, Junior Sister Li... How do you think Junior Brother Lu will play this?"
Zhou Yue came over and asked curiously.
"I think... Junior Brother Lu will probably go in with a knife?"
After some thought, Zhong Yi ruled out the possibility of Lu Ze gearing up for an all-out assault.
