Tantai Mingyue's voice was gentle, and her gaze was clear as she looked steadily at Xia Qinglian.
Xia Qinglian raised her head, her voice timid, her gaze dull:
"Peak Master, I am Ruo Mei."
Tantai Mingyue looked at her for a moment, then suddenly sighed:
"Ruo Mei, have you suffered a lot at Danxia Peak?"
Xia Qinglian blinked, her gaze even duller:
"Peak Master, what are you talking about?"
Tantai Mingyue said gently: "Every year during the Outer Sect competition selection, Su Xin sends up her list, and I personally learn about each candidate. Ruo Mei, you've only been here for three months, stuck at Foundation Establishment Second-Layer, and you're often bullied by others."
"But starting half a month ago, your cultivation has progressed rapidly, which is why Qing Chou put you in the preliminary selection list, right?"
Xia Qinglian met Tantai Mingyue's probing gaze, looking completely clueless:
"So it was Senior Sister Lin who selected me? I must thank Senior Sister Lin."
