"It's that Liu Hong again. He's the first one to enter the third level!"
"This Liu Hong is so strong. To actually overpower the Three Sects' head disciples twice and be the first one to charge into the next level!"
"Just what is this Liu Hong's background? To actually be so powerful?"
"Allegedly, he came from a small sect. But the sect he was from was destroyed later on. He should have obtained some fortuitous encounter afterward. That's how he can have his current strength."
Fame can be a double-edged sword. The originally unrecorded and nameless Liu Hong shot to fame in just one move this time. His history was naturally dug out very quickly too.
The Three Sects choosing these itinerant martial artists naturally would not select them casually. They would definitely impose stringent screening on these martial artists, including their past.
