After learning about the Seven Peaks competition, Zhong Ming thumped his chest and promised to go all out to help Longxi Peak take first place.
He said this partly because he was aiming for first place himself.
But more importantly, Zhong Ming subconsciously assumed that the senior sister of each peak would take pride in her own peak, believing her peak and its Cultivation Techniques were the strongest.
Not wanting to be disliked by his senior sister, Zhong Ming naturally spoke of their peak's ranking in the highest possible terms in front of Mo Shuying.
However, after he said this, Zhong Ming noticed that Mo Shuying didn't seem particularly excited by his words. Instead, her expression was quite complicated.
"Forget about first place. If you truly see Longxi Peak as your home, then do everything in your power to secure a spot in the top three."
After a pause, she spoke again. "If that's not possible, at the very least, you must hold on to a top-five position."
"Huh?"
