Xu Luo stepped out and surveyed the group of Heavenly Brilliance Disciples filing into the courtyard. Each of their faces bore a look of heavy grief and indignation. Upon seeing him, two of the female disciples couldn't hold back their tears and choked out, "Eldest Brother..."
"What happened?" Xu Luo asked the crowd, a bad premonition settling in his chest.
"The Xue Family..." one of the female disciples cried. "It's all our fault. We didn't listen to your advice, Eldest Brother. We didn't take the Xue Family seriously enough, and as a result..." She sobbed, haltingly recounting the events of the day.
Since it was the first day of the Xi Hezhou grand competition, everyone had been buzzing with excitement. Young and hot-blooded, they naturally exuded boundless vitality. As Direct Disciples of Celestial Brilliance, every single one of them was a one-in-a-million genius. How could they not have their own pride?
