Situ Xing's face showed signs of contemplation and hesitation.
Ning Zhuo resolutely increased the stakes: "I'll also share a secret with you, Daoist fellow—currently, Tao Liang has already joined."
Situ Xing revealed a trace of surprise: "Oh? Tao Liang has always been absorbed in hard practice within the cave, rarely interacting with the outside world. He actually joined first?"
"Could it be that the Nanming Fire Furnace has miraculous effects on his cultivation?"
Ning Zhuo nodded in praise: "Brother Situ is quick-witted, guessing correctly at once. What do you think?"
Situ Xing shook his head and sighed: "Now I totally understand Brother Shen and Brother Lin's dilemma. If we want to get involved in the Flowing Cloud Peak competition, the opponents aren't just this year's newcomers."
Ultimately, Situ Xing did not agree on the spot and left with his mind full of concerns.
Sun Lingtong came to the study, inquiring about the result.
Ning Zhuo naturally did not hide anything.
