Elder Zhen disregarded the respectful bows of those around him, his gaze steely as it bore into Alex with an intensity that could only signal anger.

"Considering your status as an inner sect disciple, I anticipated better behavior from you," he said, his voice echoing with disappointment. "Engaging in idle chatter with a junior is one thing, but to even contemplate a fight? Had I not arrived when I did, who knows what would have happened?" His reprimand was strict and unyielding.
