An elderly woman lay on the ground, her body scorched and dirty, as black as if burned. Veins on her face bulged like centipedes, blood flowed from her mouth and nose. She was utterly still, seemingly heavily injured from a magical combat. She had probably been besieged by monsters and was at the end of her strength.
The other was a child, covered in dirt, thin as a monkey, looking malnourished, but her dark pupils were bright and full of life, unscathed by the fright of the monsters. And for one so young to have reached the Foundation Building stage, her aptitude must be somewhat decent… right?
'Xuantian Sword Intent Path, eight.'
Rank eight, eh? Making it to rank is not too bad, above trash anyway.
