章節 961: A Jealous Genius

The anger hadn't been because of Jiang Chen's challenge in particular. The Ranking of Young Lords had clear-cut rules.

Yang Sheng's fury was rooted somewhere else. Pill King Zhen had only come to the Capital less than two years ago. How could he be allowed to steal so much thunder? What did he do to deserve so much adoration? The news of Emperor Peafowl's plans to make him the next young lord was just icing on the cake. Bestowing the title of young lord wasn't a big deal in and of itself. Any true disciple studying under Emperor Peafowl was automatically eligible.
