"Wait a minute! Isn't the Cloud Terrace Competition supposed to ban mounts and spirit pets from participating? What's with that fish? This is cheating!"
A disciple from Mountain Heng protested.
Then Ji Qingyan emerged from the ground, had a staring contest with the Kun, and announced,
"It claims it's not a mount or spirit pet; it's a disciple of Mo Zhu Mountain, complete with sect credentials. It's the head of their Institute of Unusual Creatures, a legitimate position, and since Cloud Platform Peak allowed it in, there's no violation. Protest denied!"
The Kun nodded, "Mm-hmm!"
Mountain Heng disciples were in an uproar, "Is this even allowed??"
Qin Jiu was speechless, "It's—also considered a disciple of Mo Zhu Mountain?? Wait, come to think of it, I heard a traveling merchant mention something about a fish monster in Louguan City. I thought it was a joke..."
Shi Kai understood, "Wouldn't that make it your senior brother?"
Qin Jiu turned his head to glare at him.
