"What? Did someone successfully challenge a champion in the last few days?"
A flicker of surprise crossed Zhou Yuanjue's eyes.
"Not exactly. He was injured in a challenge match three days ago and hasn't fully recovered yet. You probably wouldn't be interested in challenging him right now."
Lu Ming said, shaking his head.
"Someone injured him in a challenge match? Who?"
Zhou Yuanjue's interest was piqued. Given Ji Yunzhou's strength and presence, anyone capable of injuring him must be terrifyingly powerful.
"It's an old acquaintance of yours. You should be able to guess who."
Li Qingxuan gave him a helpless look and shrugged.
Zhou Yuanjue instantly understood who Li Qingxuan was talking about.
He Runlin.
While he was in secluded, arduous training, a recovered He Runlin had successfully advanced to Level 5 and challenged Ji Yunzhou.
'So that guy beat me to it. Forcing Ji Yunzhou to the point of injury... he must have gained quite a lot from that fight.'
