The second day in the morning, as Lu Sheng was meditating, he heard footsteps at the door and knew it was He Xiangzi trying to sneak out again.
After all, she was a good fighter. Even if she couldn't beat other first seats, she could still beat other people.
Lu Sheng didn't know what she was trying to do, and didn't care what she did. Even if she got in trouble, he could still get her back here. Since the league wouldn't let anyone kill, she wouldn't be in danger.
Lu Sheng continued to meditate for a bit. He finished his daily meditation of the Ultimate Crimson Nine Furies Skill and the Aquarius Qi, then got up and went to eat breakfast.
Breakfast was crystal dumplings and spiced duck feet prepared by the servants.
Lu Sheng sat down, poured himself a glass of water, and slowly started to eat the duck feet.
He had already planned his position last night—he only had to show enough skill to stabilize his rank, and he would be satisfied.
TL/N: Sword light refers to the sunlight that gets reflected when you slash a sword since polished silver reflects sunlight. ED/N: The same name is used for the sword-shaped flashes of energy around blades in mmorpg games and such, and that's what appears in some cultivation stories as well (rather obvious when cultivators don't use actual swords yet use sword light). However, this story is similar to wuxia rather than xianxia in some ways, so either's possible. You can choose which interpretation you like more :P
