Confess?

"What is your plan?" The First Marshal asked.

Lan Rong could feel the praise from his great grandfather's eyes so he quickly became much calmer as he carefully replied, "I'll do my best. If I lose, I'll apologise sincerely."

"How can you think about losing before the fight even started?" The First Marshal frowned. In his mind, he agreed with the plan but he still felt that this wasn't a mindset a youngling like his great grandson should have.

"No, no, no, that's not it. Even before this challenge was issued, we were already in the wrong. He is Ling Xiao's son so he should definitely uphold the dignity of his father when someone challenges it. All in all, whether I win or lose, I'll have to apologise," Lan Rong hurriedly explained.

"It looks like you've matured quite well." The First Marshal nodded in satisfaction. "However, since the fight is inevitable, do your best. Ling Lan's subordinates are not easy to deal with."
