Li Shiming cracked a smile and then said, "You need to calm down Porten. It's just a show anyway."
"You mean..." Porten gazed at Li Shiming with confusion on his face.
"I mean, there is no need to be riled up for such a trivial thing. Plus, it's a good opportunity for us to observe Patroclus. " Li Shiming said thoughtfully. Action spoke louder than words. Only Patroclus's actions would tell what he was really after.
Li Shiming had always thought that Patroclus only cared about his cultivation. However, he wagered that after the tournament, the Ivantian Prince would be more or less distracted by the events unfolding around him. Li Shiming smelled an opportunity for him to catch up while his opponent was sidetracked.
