Capítulo 149: The Games Begin

"Oh. But, even if they did strike you and start a brawl, there wasn't much chance you really would have been disqualified. If the tournament officials acted according to the truth, they'd have to disqualify the seven top 10 sects too. Even the Games as a whole might not recover from such a scandal, and there were only two others here besides us. It would have been swept under the rug for sure, that's what I think."

I blanched at him. "If you thought of that and I didn't, then why did you go along with me provoking them even worse?"

"Because if you had just let them beat on you and got it swept under the rug, it would have been even worse, for you and even the sect. Think about it—what kind of cultivator just lets others beat on them, even if you're outnumbered by a few dozen? You would have made both yourself and the Library look weak.
