Yet to everyone's surprise, in the following few days, no other Noble Families came calling.
By rights, fighting over an Array Master should have been a race against time, with all the major clans racking their brains to be the first to knock on the door.
The situation as it stood could only mean that they had chosen to give up.
The reason wasn't hard to guess—once they learned that the second-ranked Zhao Family and the third-ranked Yan Family had already made their move, those slightly weaker clans naturally weren't willing to humiliate themselves.
After all, people seek higher ground, water flows to lower places.
Could the eighth-ranked Zhou Family really have the gall to say, "We can offer better terms than the others. Join our Zhou Family, and your future will surely soar with the tide"?
That wouldn't just be an insult to the master, it would also offend several top-ranked clans at once—purely a thankless business.
