Lu Xiaotian knew even more clearly that this proud and arrogant fellow was unwilling to fall behind him. The two had originally seemed evenly matched, and in the battle against the old monster Kong Rong, Lu Xiaotian's demonstrated combat strength had already been second only to Yan Ji's.
After displaying combat strength at the Immortal Lord level, Ji Ting had spent his time secluded in the Green Fruit Barrier, during which far too many things had happened.
