The Theory of Energy Flow

The way Han Sen asked made him seem very self-confident. It also gave Wang Lin more material to attack with.
Li Singhua was famous in the Saint Hall, so if he suggested a subject to embarrass Han Sen, and Han Sen lost, it wouldn't reflect well on him. Therefore, someone like Li Singhua wouldn't give an advantage to his students. He'd have to select a subject that was fair and square.
If Li Singhua suggested a subject and Han Sen won, it would mean Wang Lin and his colleagues were dumb. It wouldn't reflect poorly on Li Singhua himself.
There was no personal grudge between Professor Li and Han Sen, and Professor Li was most certainly not going to make himself an enemy on Wang Lin's account.
Han Sen had thought of all this, so that was why he so happily made the suggestion to Li Singhua. Wang Lin, with a spectrum of view and thought that was not as broad, believed Han Sen was merely being naive.
