Whoa!
At the same time, the other elites could not watch any longer, calling out loud as well.
"Elder Martin is right. That was too much of you."
"That was just a little practice duel. How could you strike so hard?"
"That's right. You really went too far."
Lumi's expression was ice-cold as the jeers sounded over as she cast a glance around her. "It's their fault they're not competent enough. Why blame others?"
"I went easy enough on him already. Otherwise, the lot of them would be in a far worse state."
Lumi was right. The Hexa Swordmaidens were extremely cruel and ruthless, and they had indeed gone easy earlier. Otherwise, there would not have been a single survivor out of those challengers.
Lumi was highly competitive and sincerely believed in the strongest prevailing at the very end. However, she had forgotten that it was just a temporary alliance, and her ruthlessness made it nearly impossible for anyone to trust her.
As the words rang through the air, the surrounding people could hardly contain their shock and anger.
Seeing the situation, Darryl shook his head and chuckled humorlessly to himself.
Despite having exceptional skills, Lumi did not have the best tact or attitude. Who would want to support someone to become head of the alliance if they beat up every challenger so badly?
How very reckless.
"What a thing to say!"
Finally, Martin was the first to respond. His expression was indignant as he shouted furiously, pointing a finger at Lumi, "So, what you're insinuating is that none of the elites here are as good at the Belladonna Palace?"
As he roared, Martin's expression was ashen and dark.
Whoa!
As Martin spoke, the surrounding elites grew restless as they stared Lumi dead in the eye.
Was that woman really taking advantage of the fact that she was one of the Hexa Swordmaidens to look down on the other sects?
