Zhang Yong frowned. "That does not seem quite right?" He knew for a fact that the City Lord had only reached the second stage. In fact, the last time they met, amongst many things, this was one of the defining things for Zhang Yong to hold bad feelings for him.
Do not misunderstand, he would not judge a person merely by their strength and cultivation road; such thoughts were for brutes and did not adhere to his strong sense of justice, but a man in power, such as the City Lord, ought to have at least a little strength. Having a good cultivation base not only showcases one's power level but also their character after all.
But reaching the seventh stage? That's way too far out the other end. How would it be possible to rise 5 stages in mere years? That's truly ridiculous—something that could only be dreamed by maybe the Store of Fates here. But he also did not think that Shou was lying, which makes the whole situation rather strange.
