"Senior cultivators, I have confidence!" Su Chen declared.
"Confidence my ass!" Zhang Liyi rebuked: "You have no idea what you'll be facing once you enter the Fire Pool?!!! Right before you, a youngster at the Eighth Layer of the Vaulted Extreme Realm perished, nothing left but his bones. Although Servant Disciples don't hold high status, they too have hopes of advancing to the Outer Sect. Young man, don't overreach, and certainly don't seek death knowingly just for the sake of it. If you remain alive, anything is possible in the future."
Zhang Liyi assumed Su Chen was a Servant Disciple, after all, only Servant Disciples would be below the Ancestral King Realm.
Zhang Liyi's scolding was severe, but Su Chen didn't get angry; instead, he felt some gratitude. This elder seemed to be a person of warm heart.
"Please allow me to proceed, senior!" Su Chen said earnestly, bowing his body slightly.
