Of course, for the two of them, Zhao Yu, an 18-year-old of advanced age, had even less potential.
"Junior Brother Zhao Yu, I must continue my cultivation, so I'll be heading back now!"
Upon learning of Zhao Yu's background, one of the two instantly lost interest in befriending him and hurriedly took his leave.
Seeing this, the other hesitated for a moment but did not leave immediately, seemingly worried about maintaining face.
"He is Senior Brother Zhao Ming. He's quite diligent, fighting for every second to cultivate. Don't take it to heart..."
The man who stayed behind smiled and said, "My name is Zhao Yi, but I still prefer my old name, Er Gou. What was your name before?"
"My former name..."
Zhao Yu offered an awkward yet polite smile, "Let's not mention my former name. I'll just go by Zhao Yu!"
"Alright then!"
Zhao Yi felt that Zhao Yu probably preferred his current name, so he didn't press the matter further.
