Zhang Yan and Luo Qingyu normally seldom interacted, but now the latter suddenly came to him for guidance. He knew there must be a reason behind this, and the identity of the person behind it was almost certainly revealed.
He couldn't help but speculate that this might be Sect Leader Qin promising him the use of the Floating Heavenly Palace, which stirred some True Master to intervene.
Although Luo Qingyu spoke as if it was merely an exchange of skills, Zhang Yan could already imagine that should he lose to this person, the other's mentor would definitely report to the Sect Leader, suggesting that he was unworthy of practicing in the Floating Heavenly Palace.
Avoiding the battle was not a good choice either.
Luo Qingyu blocked his path to Zhao You Heavenly Pond. He could bypass him, but that would be an act of weakness, damaging his own reputation and making the sect elders look down on him. Plus, the person behind this would have more reason to cause trouble, ruining his plans.
