This distressed her greatly. The advancement rate of the assassin called Tender is too rapid. He poses no threat to her now, but what about in the future?
Originally, Dong Xiaoyan wouldn't have given Tender a second thought - a small-time assassin who is two ranks below her.
Yet, the Xu brothers from the Honest Grocery Shop keep bringing up Tender.
As Dong Xiaoyan's been spending a lot of time in the grocery shop recently, she often overhears-
"Tender and us were originally on the same level, both being Iron Rank assassins, our rankings were even pretty close at one point."
Xu the Third sighed deeply, "Now we've finally achieved Silver Rank, and our ranking isn't that low amongst the Silver Ranks..."
"But Tender has already become a Purple Crystal..."
"The pace of his progress, it's just, it's just unbelievable..."
Dong Xiaoyan asked curiously, "When was he ranked the same as you?"
"About a year ago..." Xu the Third replied.
