'Zhen Li...you're a disappointment.'

This is a phrase that had ran through Zhen Li's mind more times than he cared to count.

This was his own little complex.

Something that had developed in his psyche over years and years of being a member of the main Zhen Clan.

But to understand why he this phrase became a part of him, it's necessary to look into the Zhen Clan's illustrious history and the pressure that such a history brings.
