Ao Lie was extremely excited.
Since childhood, he had always been compared to Ao Moang but never matched up. That was the pride of the Dragon Clan, the hope for its restoration. Finally, after following Sha Chen's tutelage, Ao Lie's power skyrocketed, enabling him to match strides with his elder brother Ao Moang for the first time.
He saw hope to surpass him and naturally spilled all his thoughts. The more he spoke, the more excited he got. Moreover, he revealed his ambition—he wanted to take over the entire West Sea Dragon Palace!
The attendees didn't find this notion peculiar, as the Dragons all felt that those among them who disliked conflict were no more than trash. Given Ao Lie's talent and strength, and his association with a good mentor like Sha Chen, it would be a waste if he didn't vie for power. In fact, since they were all aligned with Ao Lie, they were more than eager to see him fight for it!
