He waved his hand dismissively. "You achieved this through your own hard work and talent. No need to be modest now."
She gazed at him with gratitude. "Still, without you, I would have never been able to join this sect or unlock my true potential."
He leaned back slightly. "Well then, shall we see how much you've improved?"
Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Are you going to give me pointers, Brother Yuan?"
He chuckled. "Only if you're up for it."
She stood up in excitement. "Absolutely. Let's head to the training grounds. It's not every day that someone gets the opportunity to spar with you."
They made their way to the open area behind the main building of her mansion. The training ground was surrounded by tall trees, providing both privacy and a natural setting.
"Ready when you are," she said, taking her position.
He smiled. "Don't hold back."
