issue with quotation marks?

the quality took a dive - obviously just miles copypasta

here I was hoping to be somewhat original. Oh well. glad you liked it

almost a 3x size of regular chapter tho

that was a long time ago - I would take it out, but I think sometimes it's important to provide context for the choices made when writing. Ofc there's no pleasing some people. :) But I appreciate the well wishes!

it was a bunch of kids having a playground fight from her perspective during the tournament. she got bored playing ref and decided to test the heir herself but there wasn't all that much to be excited about from her love. But she wanted to see the FL react to a threatening situation so she played a bit where she wouldn't have bothered normally

The crazy isn't faked. she keeps it under control but she has a rep. that's why Chenli freaked. crazy but skilled is a good way to put it. The brusque cold persona is the mask so that she can operate with others especially. if she's in charge

...I think you made my point for me lol. She's cold and brusque when she's not excited. She's learnt to channel her bloodlust or excitement into battle. The first time we see her she was playing up the crazy to pressure the FL cause the other geniuses except for cap were not giving her trouble. Then again when she went after the traitor she was pissed and so on. Trying not to overuse the tic. she not just crazy 😀

don't worry. she goes all harleyquinn once her bloodlust gets up. But she is hundreds of years old if not thousands so her acting like a crazed bezerker when asking to pass the salt seemed like a plothole in itself. If she can't control herself how believable she survived and has high ranks and responsibilities?

sect is about to reap the fruits of their behavior. I actually wrote them as a dig at the typical xianxia sect where all the focus in on political and actual factional infighting but with no negative effects other than to power up the MC. Real life it would not be sustainable
