"What happened here?"
The first thing Xu Jiaqi noticed when she walked through the portal was the condition of Senior Bai's world. There were still cracks all over the place, looking like it was on the verge of collapse.
Senior Bai rubbed his nose in a somewhat embarrassed manner and said, "I wanted to test our young friend here and got a little carried away."
He purposefully avoided giving her the details, as he didn't want to admit losing to Yuan, even using Immortal Qi by accident.
Fortunately for him, Xu Jiaqi was not interested in their business and did not question further. She looked at Yuan with a narrowed gaze, as if she was examining him.
A subtle smile appeared on her face a moment later, and she spoke in a calm voice, "You've grown strong, Yuan."
"Thank you, Miss Xu!"
She descended on the platform and retrieved a purple jade slip from her spatial ring, offering it to Yuan.
"What is this?" he asked.
