News of Leo defeating Eric spread like wildfire in the Qingyun Clan.
The next day, the clan hall was packed.
Lila, dressed in a beautiful white dress, stood beside the clan elder, her face full of disdain.
"Leo, you're a useless mortal. I, Lila, officially break off our engagement!" she announced loudly.
The crowd murmured.
Leo walked in calmly, his aura completely different from before.
"Break off the engagement?" He smiled faintly. "I agree."
Lila was stunned. She thought he would beg her.
"But," Leo's voice turned cold, "you dared to humiliate me yesterday. You have to pay the price."
He took a step forward. The spiritual pressure of Qi Refining Level 1 spread out.
Lila staggered back, terrified.
"You... you've cultivated?!"
Leo didn't answer.

He looked at the pale girl and spoke calmly.
"From today on, I, Leo, will climb to the top of this world. You'll never be able to reach my heels."
