Tie Binghun and Cang Lin's intention at the time was...
To have them come looking, so that when they discovered Sikong Jing was the terrifying young man in black, they would be spurred on and strive to grow stronger.
Just then, Senior Sister Cen feigned surprise and asked, "Saintess Tie, why have you come looking for a useless non-battle-physique person?"
Senior Sister Cen had wanted to ask this long ago, both curious and wary in her heart.
How had the saintess of Ancient Sacred Peak come to know that damned little bastard Sikong?
If Yang Li were here, she certainly could have answered that question long ago.
Back at Bright Dragon Stronghold, Granny Kui had fiercely interrogated Yang Li about Sikong Jing. It was then that she told Granny Kui of Sikong Jing's background, identity, martial potential, and so on...
At the time, seeking revenge for her older sister Yang Hua, Yang Li had disturbed Tie Ti'er while she was playing chess—and Granny Kui had even sent her flying with a slap.
Unfortunately, Yang Li had not come along this time, and she had no idea that the girl playing chess back then was the Ancient Sacred Saintess.
Tie Ti'er furrowed her brow and looked at Granny Kui with some displeasure.

Drawing a deep breath, Tie Ti'er replied, "I played Army-Slaying War Chess against him once at Eastern Plains Bright Dragon Stronghold, and I lost... This time, I came to take part in the District-Seizing War, and while I'm at it, I intend to win back my honor from that day."
In the shadows, Sikong Jing blinked slightly, his expression turning rather strange.
