In the quarter hour that followed, Elder Master Yang, Lan Yu'er, and Dai Yuling took turns bombarding him with questions, randomly selecting them from several books and sometimes blatantly asking Ling Xiao to recite specific passages.
As a result, Ling Xiao not only answered fluently but even pointed out some oversights in the books, leaving all three completely dumbfounded.
Dai Yuling couldn't help but give a bitter smile.
Lan Yu'er's pride was utterly deflated by Ling Xiao.
The monstrous extent of Ling Xiao's talent was truly beyond their reach.
Even Elder Master Yang said with a wry smile, "It truly is the case that each generation brings forth new talent, surpassing the previous one. This old front-runner is about to be washed ashore by the waves behind him."
Though he said this, he could hardly conceal the joy in his heart.
The reason his cultivation level had not broken through wasn't that he couldn't, but because he devoted much of his energy to nurturing disciples.
