As he descended the stairs, Lu Yu pondered whether to publicly announce that he was the Divine Weapon Pavilion disciple who perished alongside the Sword God.
By the time he reached the bottom floor, Lu Yu had made up his mind—not to disclose it.
Although revealing this might bring him immense fame, greatly accelerating the speed at which he gains experience points.
It would also bring numerous problems, and make his situation much more precarious.
Moreover, there's a crucial point: claiming he is the prodigy who perished with the Sword God's image is useless; he must prove he possesses the strength to back it up.
That's quite troublesome.
After making it public, he wouldn't immediately receive a lot of fame, but would attract all sorts of attention and danger, making it really not worth the risk.
So Lu Yu ultimately decided not to reveal his identity.
