Lu Zhen had an amused smile when he heard this; he naturally knew about this mob tactic to blame someone for all the things that they did, making only one stand out while riling the crowd to blame the one who stood out. However, he felt that Lu Yuan was strange for a reason he couldn't feel, which made Lu Zhen frown.
Lu Yuan took a deep breath before punching the pillar.
The ancestor's eyes widened when he saw the punch of Lu Yuan, shocked to the core.
Bang!
The pillar started to shake as it went back and forth for a moment before it stabilised again, astonishing everyone as no light shone from the pillar.
"Eh, maybe the pillar is broken…" someone tentatively whispered in the crowd as he was stunned.
However, his words were stuck in his throat, as a golden light shone in the pillar.
"Perfect third-stage martial artist," Ancestor Lu announced, convincing everyone that it was true.
