"You did quite well." Fang Lin returned to the Pill Alliance branch, and Dugu Nian patted Fang Lin's shoulder with an air of a superior senior, speaking to him.
Fang Lin chuckled, grabbed Dugu Nian's smooth black hair, and said, "You'd better not lose too badly later, otherwise you'll not only embarrass me but also Master Ye."
Dugu Nian pushed Fang Lin's hand away, dissatisfied, "Although my realm is lower than yours, my strength may not be much worse."
Fang Lin nodded repeatedly, "Right, right, you are absolutely correct."
Dugu Nian glared at Fang Lin fiercely, choosing not to engage with this infuriating fellow.
"Master Fang, congratulations on your initial victory."
"Master Fang truly possesses extraordinary strength, congratulations."
"We offer our congratulations to Master Fang for a successful start."
...
Many people from the Pill Alliance branch approached, offering congratulations to Fang Lin, and even the person in charge, an elderly woman, gave him a bow.
