"Interesting." Xu Qi murmured to himself as he descended the stairs from Elder Sun's office. The sensation of her hand lingering in his mind, he felt a newfound respect for the woman who had seen through his intentions and played along so masterfully. "The cultivation world really is a stage where everyone plays their parts. I'm looking forward to our next meetings."

Clutched in his hand was the set of Elemental Needles. It came with an arm guard that resonated faintly with the same energy as the needles. It was a piece of supplementary equipment used for storing the needles. It can be kept hidden beneath the sleeve of his robes.

Xu Qi stored it in his spatial bag, intending to inspect it upon returning to the training hall he's now sharing with Ling Lian.

After that, he exited the Talent Hall after saying farewell to the same disciple from earlier.
