In just a single month, from having no cultivation to reaching the fifth level of a Martial Apprentice!
That's insane! Ye Qingchen thought. He had felt his own progress was incredibly fast, having broken through from the first to the third level of the Martial Warrior Realm in one month. But compared to Xiao Xiao, I'm nothing but dust! Even though advancing in the Martial Warrior Realm is much harder than in the Martial Disciple Realm, I'm sure it wouldn't take Xiao Xiao a month to go from the first to the third level of the Martial Warrior Realm!
The Grand Elder chuckled. "Little girl, you're always shouting about protecting that Ye Qingchen boy. If you don't cultivate diligently, how will you get strong enough to protect him?"
Xiao Xiao spread her hands helplessly. "Grand Elder, can't you find another way to motivate me? I've heard that line a thousand times this month, if not eight hundred! My ears are about to grow calluses!"
