"Really? You're not kidding me?"
Upon hearing Ye Xiaofei's words, the disappointed look on Zhao Ke's face immediately vanished, replaced by thick joy and excitement.
"Of course it's true!"
Ye Xiaofei nodded and earnestly coaxed, "Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. As long as you're willing to work hard, you will certainly succeed."
Is it true that as long as you're willing to put in hard work, you will certainly succeed?
The answer, of course, is negative!
Ye Xiaofei intentionally emphasized the importance of effort, not because he intended to deceive Zhao Ke, but to comfort her and give her the motivation to continue cultivating.
Effort is indeed important, but talent is the key factor that determines success.
Those without talent, when compared with those who have it, even if they spend ten times, or even a hundred times the effort, the height they can reach is still very limited.
However, that doesn't mean talent determines everything.
