Liu Yuxi faced the oppressive gaze of Gu Jinlai, her pretty face tinged with a hint of paleness.
"Gu... Palace Master Gu, please don't misunderstand, we... it was only because Brother Yuan hadn't seen his fellow countrymen from Qiantian for so long, and upon hearing about a paragon like Palace Master Gu, whose talent and beauty astonish the present and the past, we couldn't help but wish to spar with you out of an itching eagerness," she said with a trembling voice.
As she said the word "spar," she seemed to have grasped the key point and hurriedly continued, "Yes, that's right, sparring, Brother Yuan was merely sparring with Palace Master Gu, it's not about being arrogant or not. Now that we see Palace Master Gu's strength, my heart is filled with nothing but admiration. Palace Master Gu truly deserves to be the most outstanding leader of the Qiantian forces in a century, and I, Yuxi, am wholeheartedly convinced."
"Sparring."
