Tragedy

The comparison of Ye Xiao and Ye Yunduan made the old masters speechless.

Ye Xiao was ambitious and attentive. He always made smart moves and never took risks. Everything he did was a surprise that shocked the others at first but then convinced everybody.

Ye Yunduan pretended to be capable and elegant, but he was a foolish young lord who had filled his own head with impractical dreams.

Ye Xiao was obviously much better.

Comparison killed. No comparison, no feelings hurt. The old masters had followed Ye Xiao before they listened to Ye Yunduan, so they felt sick sometimes. Master Guan was not the only one who felt sad and disappointed, the other six old masters too!

Master Song, Master Yun, and Master Ju were lost in thoughts.

The other three old masters felt lost as well. They couldn't choose which side to support, so they had to figure out something to solve the problem.
