Bai Xiao: "So it's rare, but that means... it has happened before?"
Wei Gang waved his hands and said vaguely, "Ah, just occasionally!"
Then he quickly changed the topic, "Actually, there are benefits to practicing with Second Senior Sister, too. Most hard skills have a process of breaking and then rebuilding, usually achieved with medication. And, in fact, Second Senior Sister's Thorny Power can have a similar effect, just a bit more violent and swift. Let me be honest with you, Bai Xiao."
"My Copper Statue Technique achieved the Great Achievement Realm because Senior Sister Xia helped me. That palm strike of hers, tsk tsk, had me bedridden for an entire day..."
"But, it also helped me break through to the Great Achievement Realm of the Copper Statue Technique!"
"It was a painful joy."
A nostalgic expression appeared on Wei Gang's face.
Did Bai Xiao sense a bizarre hint of masochism in him?
"Why don't you continue then, Senior Brother?" Bai Xiao asked.
