"Your Majesty, we merely dispatched the weakest of the ten Heavenly Prides of Longzhou, and have already won nine matches. Today is the last match,"

Long Yurou remained calm and spoke indifferently, "The ten bouts have not yet concluded, the outcome remains uncertain."
"Our Longzhou is the Ancestral Land of the Long Family clan, all nine branches stemming from Longzhou, including yours. Only because the old Martial God came from your branch, did it become the main lineage, while the other eight branches defend the various states on your behalf."
