"Hehe..." Xin Yun shook his head with a smile as he looked at Yi Luo Xiang, "I disagree with your opinion. The mont he agreed to let pose the questions, it already proved my wisdom was greater than his. If it were , I would absolutely never have agreed. Aren't there examiners right there? Letting them continue to ask questions would be the correct move!"
Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang tilted her head and pondered for a mont before sighing and saying, "Yes, the outco was actually decided the mont he agreed to let you pose the questions."
At that point, Yi Luo Xiang shook her head, casting aside those stray thoughts, and said with a smile, "It seems you still have many such questions. Do you have any left? Pose two for and Swallow to guess."
Swallow? Upon hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, Xin Yun imdiately looked toward Yan Qingying and frowned. He scolded, "Don't casually give people nicknas. That is a very disrespectful behavior. If you find calling her Yan Qingying too troubleso, you can call her Qingying, got it?"
"Ah!" Yi Luo Xiang exclaid, covering her cherry-red mouth at Xin Yun's words. Yes... what happened to her? Why did she suddenly start giving others nicknas? That absolutely wasn't sothing a person with manners should do, it was too disrespectful to others.
Although Xin Yun's tone was not at all polite, Yi Luo Xiang was not angry because she truly was at fault, and seriously lacking in manners at that.
Feeling apologetic, Yi Luo Xiang sincerely turned to Yan Qingying and said, "I am so sorry, truly sorry, Sister Qingying. I shouldn't have given you a nickna. Please, you must forgive this younger sister."
Facing Yi Luo Xiang's apology, Yan Qingying maintained a calm expression and quietly said, "It's nothing." After finishing her words, Yan Qingying was still calm, as if nothing had ever happened.
However, although she appeared calm on the surface, internally Yan Qingying was anything but calm. In fact... when Yi Luo Xiang first called her Swallow, she felt displeased, but she didn't think much of it. A na is rely a label, after all, it doesn't really matter, and how it is used is up to the individual.
Yet, when Xin Yun sternly scolded Yi Luo Xiang for not supposed to give her a nickna, the heart wrapped in thick armor within Yan Qingying couldn't help but tremble.
What moved her the most, and even what she was grateful for, was not that Xin Yun spoke up for her, but the respect Xin Yun showed. Giving people nicknas without their consent is indeed disrespectful, but before Yan Qingying herself realized it, Xin Yun had imdiately sensed this. What did that prove?
That's right, it may seem trivial, but it's precisely from such minor things that Xin Yun's attitude toward her could be seen. It was from the heart, incredibly sincere respect and regard for Yan Qingying. If he rely considered her a servant or follower, he wouldn't possibly be so sensitive.
It might be an illusion, or maybe not, but Yan Qingying even felt that in Xin Yun's eyes, her status seed to be even higher than his own, putting her on an almost worshipful pedestal!
The reason she could discern these things was that Yan Qingying's Dragon Ball was of the Spiritual System and extrely sensitive to the spiritual power that human beings emit, enabling her to easily sense the fluctuations of spiritual power and grope for the other person's general thoughts. Whether they are good or bad, it's hard to deceive her perception.
If Yi Luo's Soul Ripple detected the inner soul of beings, then Yan Qingying's spiritual power ripple sensed the spiritual power dispersed outside the body. Although the thods are different and the effects vary, the principles are similar.
In fact, the reason Yan Qingying was willing to open up all her secrets to Xin Yun was precisely because she clearly felt Xin Yun's care and affection for her, his absolute trust and fondness for her. Even though this fondness did not include any romantic love, it was equally genuine. But for such a rapport, why else would Yan Qingying reveal all her secrets to him?
Usually, Yan Qingying appeared expressionless and focused, but in reality, her spiritual power ripples were constantly exploring her surroundings, understanding all the dynamics around her.
Yi Luo Xiang's hostility toward her, Yi Luo Xiang's sincere love for Xin Yun, Xin Yun's fondness and care for her; all of these were clearly presented in the ocean that was Yan Qingying's heart. She saw through the web of cause and effect, and this made her all the more touched.
She knew that although Yi Luo Xiang was hostile toward her, it was just because she was too beautiful. Yi Luo Xiang was worried that she might steal Xin Yun's love for her. Such hostility was endearing rather than genuine, after all... Yi Luo Xiang was still just a child.
With a soft sigh, Yan Qingying imperceptibly shook her head. Actually... Yi Luo Xiang didn't need to be so hostile. No matter what, she couldn't steal Xin Yun; she didn't need to. She was Xin Yun's shadow, and how can a shadow steal anything?
After returning ho, Ming Xuan had already arrived back earlier. It must be said, although his dragon wasn't much to speak of, completely lacking power and seeming weak to everyone, but considering only Ming Xuan's talent, aptitude, and potential, he was indeed an excellent choice.
Though in a different age group, the content of this year's assessnt was the sa. After a brief inquiry, Ming Xuan's announced scores once again shocked Xin Yun; talent 80, aptitude 80, potential 100, with a total score of 260.
Shaking his head wordlessly, Xin Yun was internally in turmoil. Although Ming Xuan's talent and aptitude were only average, his potential was incredibly strong, reaching the maximum score of 100! In comparison, all of Xin Yun's attributes were too ordinary.
Of course, high talent, good aptitude, and great potential don't guarantee one will beco an expert. However, it's clear that those with these attributes have an easier ti becoming experts, just like a tall and strong man at one ter eighty has an easier ti becoming a 100-ter runner than a short and thin individual at one ter fifty-six.
Talent, aptitude, including potential, are all innate and cannot be altered later in life. Xin Yun knew that if he wanted to catch up with these three and beco one of the Nine Great Experts, he would have to make up for his deficiencies with dedicated cultivation; otherwise, there would be no hope.
