If he hadn't come, today's massacre in the courtyard would have been a blood sacrifice to the Martial Saint, forcing the wandering players from the Simulation Field to take sides.
But since he happened to come today, Mr. Zhao changed his plan accordingly.
The ambush in the courtyard became targeted at him and Feng Zhong.
Those people successfully killed themselves, the top three players in the Simulation Field were eliminated, and Mr. Zhao, who was fourth, was promoted to first place. The remaining resources were used to target the candidates who hadn't arrived yet and to plan the revival of the Martial Saint.
