Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Helian Wei Wei was not eager to talk to Huan Ming Xiang. She paced to the window and sat floppily on the chair. She was holding a book in her hands. Even the gesture of her flipping through the pages of the book seemed unhurried.
In any case, the most important rule for someone who was doing an important business was to stay calm.
But, someone like Helian Wei Wei was extremely rare.
Sure enough, it was not simple.
The girl put down the book in her hands. She was perfectly concealed amid the light and shades.
Huan Ming Xiang gave Helian Wei Wei an acknowledging gaze and said, “Luan Yan, come out. I told you before that she is very good at keeping secrets. When there is a presence of a third party, she will definitely not come to greet me.”
Just right after Huan Ming Xiang finished his sentence, a green shadow flashed by and landed on the ground silently.
The girl walked forward and greeted him as an uncle.
Luan Yan raised his hand. His emotions were indistinguishable from his expression.
Just like Huan Ming Xiang, he was the leader of the Battle Spirit Forces. Every leader would have his own favorite entrant. Undoubtedly, this girl was the entrant that he valued the most.
“It seems that I’ve worried too much.” Luan Yan retrieved his gaze from Helian Wei Wei, “She is more composed than I thought.”
Huan Ming Xiang stroked his long white beard and said, “You will find out more about her strengths in the future.”
Luan Yan did not respond, but said in an unvarying tone, “I heard that she does not have martial Qi yet.”
“Ha, woman, here comes another person who looks down on you.” Yuan Ming snickered.
Seemed to be not bothered at all, Helian Wei Wei yawned.
The eyes of Huan Ming Xiang lit up but his tone of voice turned cold, “But she won the martial Qi compet.i.tion in the Capital. I guess you can’t possibly unaware of that.”
“Old Man Huan.” Luan Yan threw a side glance at Huan Ming Xiang. “I didn’t mean this in a bad way. If she is a student who has pa.s.sed, she certainly has her own values. However, you also understand that the Battle Spirit Forces have always emphasized the speed and skill of stealth. She still has a lot of room for improvement in these aspects.”
Upon listening to this statement, Helian Wei Wei’s lips quirked.
She had never expected that one day her capability and skill to stealth would be doubted.
She joined the Tang Sect when she was seven years old. During her first lesson, she was personally guided by Young Master Tang of how to hide her true self from the others.
“Young master apparently has no confidence in me,” Helian Wei Wei stood up, took a step forward with her long legs and walked toward Luan Yan slowly in a tip-toeing manner.
Luan Yan threw a glimpse at her, “It doesn’t matter if I’m confident in you or not. The fact is that I don’t know you well.”
“Young Master, you’re not my leader. Of course, you don’t know me well.” Helian Wei Wei opened her eyes slothfully. ” However, you began to pick on my weaknesses right after we met. Are you being a little disrespectful to Old Man Huan?”
Luan Yan was stunned by her words. His expression changed before he turned around and said to Huan Ming Xiang, “Old Man Huan, I didn’t mean it that way. But, the Battle Spirit Forces have never recruited someone without martial Qi. I am worried that she might not be able to catch up during the real battle.”
“Those who have been selected will go through training for a period of time. Within this period, those who are not fit will be eliminated.” Huan Ming Xiang gazed at Luan Yan casually. “There’s nothing for you to worry about. You only have to manage your own candidate.”
Upon listening to this, Luan Yan knew that he had gone overboard with his previous statement. Deep down, he did not appreciate Helian Wei Wei, but he could only wait until the end to find out who would be the last one standing.
Probably wanted to enliven the current atmosphere, the girl suddenly spoke with her clear and melodious voice, “I didn’t expect you to join the Battle Spirit Forces as well. Is this part of predestination?”
“Probably,” Helian Wei Wei said lazily without much emotion.
Her words somewhat confused the girl.
Luan Yan furrowed his brows. “You guys have met before?”
The girl chuckled and explained, “Yeah, we met before. I b.u.mped into this lady yesterday night just right after I arrived at the academy. I was fairly stunned when I saw her again here.”
As she spoke, the girl turned to look at Helian Wei Wei, “My name is Yun Biluo. What’s yours?”
