Zhao Rong stared at the second master, swallowed hard, and his eyes widened. "Are you cosplaying?"
The assistant scratched the back of his head, reminded of a character named Hu Tiefeng from the *Chu Liuxiang* series he'd watched as a child. He asked the man in the ancient costume, "Buddy, with that getup, are you trying to look like Hu Tiefeng?"
Hearing them, the second master stepped forward, theatrically brandishing his sword. "I'm not cosplaying, and I'm not just acting tough. I *am* the legendary hero, Hu Tiefeng!"
When the three women saw the ugly, morbidly obese man in an ancient costume claiming to be Hu Tiefeng, they scoffed.
Ms. Lili stepped forward and mocked the poser. "If you're Hu Tiefeng, then our assistant here can be Chu Liuxiang."
Yu Lanmei ridiculed the man. "Hu Tiefeng is a famous character from the great wuxia novelist Gu Long! A guy like you pretending to be him is just tarnishing a hero's image."
