And while the other disciples only mumbled to each other, one of them was actually brave enough to approach Yuan and said loudly, "Hey! You! What's your name?!"

"Me? I'm Yuan," he calmly responded.

"Hm? Yuan? Why does that name sound so familiar?" The disciples there wondered when they heard Yuan's name.

"Oh, shit! He's that Outer Court disciple who defeated the Mad Tiger recently!" One of them quickly realized and exclaimed in a surprised voice, shocking the other disciples.
