"Teacher, please don't put more pressure on me... I'm already anxious enough..."
Chen Xuan pleaded, wearing a bitter smile.

Chen Xuan froze, sensing a hint of something different in the air.

Feeling the heaviness of the other's tone, Chen Xuan also became serious.
"What, then, does standing at the pinnacle mean?"
Caught off guard by the immediate counter-question, Chen Xuan was unsure how to reply.
