At the Demon Sect's Yanwu Peak, a group of Outer Sect disciples were cheering for Ji Li, but her gaze never left Lu Xun.
Just like the lyrics of a song:
"But I only gaze into his eyes, I am indifferent to the cheers of the multitude."
Even in her final speech, Ji Li attributed all her success to Lu Xun, claiming it was all thanks to his insights.
Listening to this, Lu Xun was slightly taken aback on stage, even appearing a bit bewildered, though he quickly managed to squeeze out a gratified smile.
In reality, Lu Xun did contribute significantly to Ji Li's victory, and not in a small way.
He taught Ji Li the technique "Pink Ink" and even made a custom-fitted soft armor for her.
While they were training at the base of the mountain, he was the one who whipped her into shape day after day, night after night – molding her into a qualified...Female Sword Cultivator.
However, these were just some of the factors. The primary factor was Ji Li's own hard work.
