"See how small these grapes are? Brother Wei Zhao must be hinting that your little bunnies are too small, so you should eat some papaya and milk to build them up!" Ying Ziyu analyzed.
(Leader Zhu: What an injustice! The grapes are small because all the big ones got picked over. Whatever's left at night is either rotten or tiny—I went to such trouble to pick these out!)
"I-is that so..." Chen Xi said, blushing, a little shy. "Then... I'll eat some in a bit..."
"Mm-hm, let's eat together!" Ying Ziyu nodded.
"Sister Ziyu, aren't yours already big enough?" Chen Xi gave Ying Ziyu a curious look.
"What do you know? Brother Wei Zhao has a cow of a sister by his side—I've got a long way to go!" Ying Ziyu blurted out.
"But... even if I catch up, it's me doing the catching up. What good does it do you if you catch up?" Chen Xi was even more puzzled.
"Ah... me..." Ying Ziyu thought, Oh no. Why can't I ever keep my mouth shut? I let the truth slip again. She hurried to explain, "Isn't it so you have a goal? With me as a role model urging you on, you'll have motivation. Otherwise, without comparison, where would your motivation come from? I'm sacrificing myself for your sake!"
"Ah, Sister Ziyu, you're so noble!" the innocent Chen Xi said, moved.
"Heh... I suppose so..." Ying Ziyu said, a little ashamed inside.

The Tomorrow-and-Tomorrow Sect. Zhong Yongliang and Gao Xiaofu knelt cautiously before the Heavenly Worthy of Pure Yang, while Zhang Naipao knelt behind the Pure Yang Master.
"What? You're saying Wei Zhao is already a Heaven-rank expert? He advanced that fast?" After hearing Zhong Yongliang's tearful account, the Heavenly Worthy of Pure Yang found it hard to believe. How could it be? What kind of heaven-defying leveling speed was this? He hadn't been cultivating any demonic arts—how could he have suddenly jumped several ranks at once?
He had been at the peak of the mid Earth rank before—and in one leap he'd skipped the late Earth rank and the late Earth rank peak, shooting straight up to Heaven rank? Had he gulped down a whole pile of Qi-Gathering Pills? That didn't seem realistic.
"Not just Wei Zhao—Zhao Qibing has become a Heaven-rank expert too..." With that, Zhong Yongliang went on to recount how he had later run into Zhao Qibing and been beaten up.
"What? Zhao Qibing is a Heaven-rank expert too? How is that possible?" Now the Heavenly Worthy of Pure Yang was even more incredulous. If it was Wei Zhao, this freak, suddenly stepping into Heaven rank, well, that was strange but not entirely unacceptable—after all, he was someone who could beat Zhang Naipao, so he counted as an expert among experts. But to say that some young whelp from a petty hidden family could break through from an ordinary Mystic-rank expert all the way to Heaven rank—that was a joke!
