But even if he didn't say, it didn't mean that the student wasn't curious. His words were too vague, what a lack of sincerity! I've already told you about Cao Qingci, what are you still babbling about?!
Only after further questioning did the student realize that the Lu Shu classmate he was talking about was a far superior being than Cao Qingci, "That's too amazing. Are you sure? So while you guys were hiding, he defeated those nine skeletons by himself?"
This student was still protecting his image and never mentioned how he did not plan to fight and was being protected the whole time. That would be embarrassing.
He didn't think of the shame which would come now, what did he do earlier?
