Old Man Qiu was startled and then he nodded. "The main purpose of this training is to build the unconditional trust we have for each other. Since you're confident that you can win this, I shall trust you!"
The trust that Old Man Qiu was talking about, was not simply because of what Jian Qi had said. There was something more to it.
Such as the unconditional trust one had for their comrades!
Such as the invisible aura that this girl had, or the power of reassurance that she possessed!
He thought about it. Maybe it was everything.
This girl before him might be way younger than he was but they had never treated her as a clueless little girl.
In every training or elimination round, they all looked up to her as a worthy comrade and a worthy opponent!
Jian Qi noticed that Old Man Qiu had been staring at her and her smile was even brighter now. She teased him, "Aren't you afraid that I might be ruthless?"
