This great battle is unavoidable, yet the attitudes of the deputies under both sides seem to differ.
The deputies under General Shan pay no heed, believing that General Shan indeed should teach the opponent a lesson, letting them know who truly is the leader of the Eight Great Generals!
On the other hand, the deputies under the Water General wish to dissuade him, thinking that escalating the matter is of no benefit to the Water General.
This already shows the positions both men are in.
"General Shan, despite my usual respect for you, you dare to speak ill of those old matters behind my back, what kind of hero or good man do you think you are!"
The Water General was furious, pointing his long knife directly at the distant General Shan.
General Shan, far from admitting his mistake, instead sneered, "Water General, did I say something wrong? If I did, please correct me!"
Faced with General Shan's attitude, the Water General couldn't bear it anymore.
