Looking at the dejected expressions on Zhao Hanfeng and the other two, Patriarch Zhao Yongzhi chuckled.
He said, "The Ancestor and I have naturally considered your concerns. But rest assured, since the Ancestor has spoken, he must have already made arrangements."
He pondered for a moment, worried that Zhao Hanfeng and the others still lacked confidence. "Fine," he continued, "it's time you knew a few things. Don't you have an enemy named Chu Qingyun who is also participating in the assessment? I'll make some arrangements to have him die in the second stage."
"Don't you worry. In the second stage, that Chu Qingyun will die without a doubt!"
To boost their confidence, Zhao Yongzhi's tone was exceptionally firm!
