"Martial Brother, still no sign of the Sect Master? In seven days, people from Heavenly Capital will arrive.
Those people act tyrannically. The Yun Family of Leizhou, Golden Cicada Temple, and even first-rate forces from several other prefectures all lost every one of their sect resource sites after failing their wagers against them.
We have already lost three matches. If we lose one more, even the sect's last Spirit Stone Mine will be handed over to them.
Maintaining the entire sect with this one Spirit Stone Mine is already exceedingly difficult.
If we lose this Spirit Stone Mine, Yun Ge Sect will be left with nothing but an empty shell of a sect gate. Coupled with Azure Star's current situation, I fear the Sect Inheritance will be completely severed in our hands before long."
