"This..."
Zhuge Xiao's smile relaxed, and he cupped his hands. "Victory and defeat are common in war. Your Highness can always start over. You mustn't be discouraged by this!"
He knew well that Zhao Yong's physical foundation was among the best in the entire history of the Zhao Clan.
The loss of this opportunity to enter the War God Tower was immeasurable.
But even so, Zhao Yong was still willing to honor his promise and give him the slot, which was truly rare.
Although he believed his contributions were worthy of a slot, he couldn't possibly refuse it. The entire reason he had come to Lingge was to enter the War God Tower and heal his legs.
But the mansion rivalry was never a place where effort guaranteed reward.
He had to be grateful for Zhao Yong's action.
But the other Mansion Officials didn't seem to think so.
Feng Tianxi's face was dark. He looked as if he wanted to speak but held his tongue, ultimately saying nothing.
