Elder zhou totally did a Serious Punch.
Also he is just hiding because he is now bald for that reference.

Just in time as the assassin's flesh tore apart under the strain of the growing qi, and a wave of utter foulness washed over them. It was not acid, nor slime, nor anything else so easy to describe. It was the essence of filth, foul beyond words, and even beneath her technique, Ling Qi gagged and held back tears from watering eyes. She felt her technique shatter under the weight of it, but it had held long enough. The technique had passed. A vast scoop of the rampart was gone, eaten away, rotted into sludge.
Ling Qi felt warmth. Tongues of flame licked her skin, and gusts of wind tugged at her hair, hot enough to melt flesh and boil blood, they were comfortably warm to her. She felt Xiulan tugging on her arm, pulling it around her shoulder. "That's not gonna work, you're too short," she murmured dizzily.
However, the last thing she experienced as her consciousness faded was Gu Yanmei's head whipping around in alarm as the earth rocked, no mere minor tremor like Ling Qi had felt before, but a violent quaking that threw her from her feet. Far, far to the south, in the great mountains of the wall, Ling Qi saw the sky split asunder. She saw a mountaintop disintegrate into so much powder, and saw the storm wracked clouds rip apart in an expanding cone leaving behind a bare blue sky. Gu Yanmei's molten wings flared out, and she felt the Fourth realms energies slam into place over the rampart and village shielding everyone from the terrible gale that ripped through in its wake.
That time was different. She failed the sect test, LQ was passing her and she had HJ reject her on top of it. This time she succeed, her friend was just a maniac as always and get herself hurt doing LQ-things. It will effect her but doubt her answer this time will be to eat a tribulation.Previous time something like this happened Xiulan jumped into a tribulation.
This is not going to be good for her, I fear.
TBH, I am not sure that Xiulan is going to see it like this. Still, fair enough, there are mitigating factors for it to not shatter her like back then.

She's already faced one, so I think the bar for her to seek another is lower. Don't think we're quite there yet even so, however. Maybe doubling down on training or taking a risky mission, though?TBH, I am not sure that Xiulan is going to see it like this.

I was seriously considering doing this.Clearly the proper vote after an amazing arc, such as this one, is:
[X] Ripples (Cai Renxiang)
[X] Shockwaves (Su Ling)
[X] Churning (Gu Xiulan)
To be honest, I just want more. I don't particularly care which one is chosen, as long as it keeps coming.
