The Li Family's elder paused and frowned. This boy was far too composed; it didn't seem like he was bluffing.
The Wang Family's elder also held back, looking instead toward Clan Leader Sun. "I wonder where the two young masters of the Sun Family are. Could they come out and verify his claims?"
Clan Leader Sun grew angrier. "This is ridiculous! The boy is clearly spouting nonsense. How could he possibly be the Rookie King? How could he be number one on the Celestial Ranking? You actually believe such lies?"
"We don't really believe it," the men from the Li and Wang families replied, "but just in case, it would be best to have the two young masters come and verify it."
Clan Leader Sun snorted coldly. "My two sons are still on their way back; they haven't arrived yet. This boy must know this, which is why he's saying such things. He's just trying to stall for time. Everyone, attack now! We won't get another chance once the people from the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower arrive."
