"Since he wants to pressure me by refining a Grade Seven Pill and showing off his connections..." Chu Zhou stretched. "Then I have no choice but to face him head-on."

Chu Zhou did not answer directly. Instead, he turned to gaze at Black Seal City's bustling nightscape outside the window. "A comparison will stir more discussion and draw more eyes to this affair."
"Since His Excellency the Pill Emperor has personally built the stage and invited the entire Black-Corner Region to watch, I should at least join him in this performance."
