"Let's have a toast to the heroes, starting with discussing supernatural powers. In this world, when it comes to supernatural powers, the first one that comes to mind is the flower-wielding monk Lu Zhishen, who can uproot a willow tree with ease. If he didn't possess the strength of a thousand catties in each arm, how could he move trees?" "You are ignorant. Have you not heard of Li Kui, the Little Overlord, who lifted thousands of catties of city gates in Beijing and successfully escaped from the four-way ambush? How could he be compared to an ordinary mortal?" "Even if Li Kui has the greatest supernatural power, when it comes to loyalty and righteousness, it must be Song Jiang from Yuncheng. He has always been generous and selfless, always ready to help others in times of difficulty. People call him the Timely Rain. When he became famous, Li Kui hadn't even been born yet, haha." "No way, Song Jiang's loyalty is limited, how can he compare to Li Kui? Not only does Li Kui have no equal in friendship with the martial world, but even the people of Beijing remember his kindness. He is the true savior of thousands of families and someone who is righteous to the heavens. When it comes to the first place, there is no doubt that it belongs to Li Kui."
