As for any celebrations by sects for their performances so far, that was up to their respective Sect Masters. In our case, Sect Master Jiao Deshi was rightfully over the moon—not too much outwardly, but there were signs—at our sect so far having a genuine prospect at not just rejoining the top 10, but entering the top 5 in rank for the first time in history. So, he had arranged for the most lavish banquet I'd yet experienced. It wasn't at the best, highest-end restaurant in Ascension City. That one, of course, had been reserved by the Earth Ascension representatives themselves, but Jiao Deshi had bought out one of several which apparently had long been jockeying for second place.
He even personally promised Chen Huan he could eat his fill, and if he later regretted those words, I had to admit he did a good job maintaining his poker face over the outrageous amount of food the young serpent put away.
