Sharpening the Sword, Waiting for the Storm

In the hall, everyone couldn't help but suppress their laughter.

Zhang Yan showed no signs of concern, still complimenting and handing over a thousand silver tickets.

"Don't worry, Sword Immortal Su, our Fire Sword Sect will lead by example. This is my compensation, and from now on, I will strictly require our disciples to behave well and prioritize virtue before martial skills. It will be the first rule in our sect's regulations."

One must admit that Zhang Yan is truly astute. Su Yang specifically called him out, and if he mishandled the situation, he would become a laughingstock. But not only did he handle it well, he did it splendidly.

He understood the situation and knew that Su Yang needed much more than just this little compensation. It was about the attitude and setting future rules.

Zhang Yan's performance surprised even Su Yang.

"Yes, Sect Leader Zhang set a great example," Su Yang nodded in approval.
