"Whimper, so we've never advanced because our talents aren't up to par."
"Oh, we just can't compare..."
"I also want good talents, but it's a pity they can't be changed."

The four women began to sigh one after another.
They also understood these principles.
They were excited, thinking perhaps a miracle might happen.
What if Xia Liu discovered some divine pill that would allow them to advance just by taking one?
Now things were still okay; life was still going on.
They would still strive hard in their cultivation.
"Don't lose heart, everyone. Your talents are all great, much better than mine. If I were to start cultivating from scratch, I definitely wouldn't surpass you," Xia Liu immediately comforted them upon seeing their disheartenment.
"You just know how to comfort us; when you have the time, you should help us find some Spirit Grass."
"Exactly, Spirit Grass is the real comfort."
