The tournament went on with Fang Xuiying and poison user rising to the finals.
In the meantime, Elder Wei pulled Yi into a corner.
"Boy, you almost fell. What do you have to say for yourself? Are you that desperate for power? Are you so suicidal that you would give your life up to flow?"
Yi was ashamed. It was true, he had let go of the control. He allowed the way of the world to invade his sense of self. He attempted to make excuses.
"Senior Wei! It was an accident! Please believe me!"
Elder Wei slapped Yi in the face.
"Bullsh*t! You and I both know that you got greedy. You couldn't afford not being able to become an inner sect disciple again so you did what you did!"
Elder Wei's heart grew soft the moment he has seen Yi's dismayed face.
