Theoretically, conventions shouldn't be rejected, but Yuan Zhou had his own consideration. Frankly speaking, his obsessive-compulsive disorder had already been in the late stages, but was now strengthened even more by the system.
"Respected Zhou, I don't need any assistants. If you have any queries, you can come to my restaurant personally and I'll prove to you." Yuan Zhou said that with a seemingly euphemistic tone.

"Yes." Yuan Zhou answered cleanly.
"Can you tell me the reason?" Zhou Shijie asked with puzzlement.
He just didn't understand why this person who didn't look prideful before was now even tougher than Chu Xiao.
At the very least, Chu Xiao chose two masters that were barely qualified.
"I'm just used to doing it all alone." Yuan Zhou said with an indifferent tone.
