Crack! Crack!
Long Tianyin clenched his fists until they creaked.
Yet there was not the slightest thing he could do about Young Emperor Cangming.
After all, this was fair competition. He could not possibly deny the other man even the right to speak, could he?
But the problem was that Young Emperor Cangming's words were simply too persuasive, leaving him unable not to worry.
"I have already said that everyone has one chance to introduce themselves. You need only speak about yourself; there is no need to concern yourself with others." The Heavenly Saint Old Ancestor spoke in an exceedingly feeble voice.

If he wanted to marry the man's daughter, he could not possibly refuse to let her parent speak, could he?
That would be far too lacking in human feeling!

The two who had stepped forward were true giants.
How could they dare speak at a time like this?
Would that not
