Serious

When Moos, Irolana and Ingkath heard these words, they couldn't help but panic. Even if they hadn't seen Leonel's strength today, they had still heard about what happened between him and Gersan. To take out a Valiant Hall white belt in just two exchanges… There wasn't a single person here who could replicate that feat. 

No, that wasn't true. There was one other. But, she just so happened to be his girlfriend. 

They could only say that this Senior Lu was far too bold. Was he really not afraid of death?

What Senior Lu had misunderstood was Leonel's reason for calling them all here and bringing them together. In his mind, Leonel was afraid of the Oryx and thus needed their help. Even if Leonel was enraged into leaving this group, who cared? The group had already been brought together. Would one more or one less Leonel make a massive difference? They could then look after each other's backs.
