Li Qi waved a hand and sighed, "No need for modesty in front of me. I\'ve looked over the materials of those contestants: their quality is quite high among the U19 knockout rounds, and there\'s even a genius who has already mastered Ultimate Skills... You achieving such overwhelming victories in each match is praiseworthy, to say the least."

"Compared to when you set off, you\'ve become much stronger now... I\'ve been astonished by your growth rate many times before, but even though I tried to expect the most, you still far exceeded my expectations."

Li Qi felt a sense of comfort mixed with an inexplicable sense of loss.

"Now, I\'m beginning to doubt... whether I can still be your master or not, afraid that my level isn\'t enough and might limit your growth..."

Xue Jing crouched down, one knee half-kneeling, and placed his hands on Li Qi\'s knees, speaking softly,

"What are you talking about? A day as a teacher is a lifetime as a father. It\'s precisely because of Master\'s teachings that I have achieved what I have today... As they say, \'the master leads you to the door, the practice is up to the individual.\' You have already perfectly fulfilled your responsibilities."

"Even if one day I surpass my master, it will certainly be because I had a good teacher."

Li Qi couldn\'t help but laugh out loud, patting Xue Jing\'s head.

"Even though these are flattering words, they do please me."

Xue Jing smiled and suddenly noticed something, taking a careful look at Li Qi and curiously saying, "Hm? Master, you seem a bit younger?"

"Oh? You\'ve noticed?" Li Qi touched his receding hairline, looking somewhat proud.

Compared to his previously withered and aged appearance, as if he could die at any moment, he now seemed subtly younger.

Even the shiny bald spot on the top of his head had sprouted several stubborn hairs.

Li Qi sighed,

"Ever since I heard your theory about the spirit interfacing with one\'s own reality..."

Xue Jing speculated, "Oh? Have you been gradually restoring your body\'s foundation with your Breakthrough-level spiritual power?"

Li Qi gave him an odd look, "No, I\'ve been street-racing in my wheelchair every day. I\'ve seen more... ahem, noticed more beautiful sights that I haven\'t before, and I feel a bit younger in spirit..."

Xue Jing: "..."

Li Qi sighed with a mix of regret on his face, "Alas... it\'s a shame the weather is getting colder, and there are fewer young ladies wearing skirts around."

Xue Jing\'s mouth twitched, "Um... as long as you\'re happy."

"Let\'s not talk about that." Li Qi waved his hand.

"You saw it when you came in, right? Our Hidden Dragon Dojo is now at full capacity with disciples and students... All these people came because of your reputation. The dojo is too small now, and it\'s at its limit for accommodating everyone, so I\'ve decided to move to a more spacious place."

Li Qi stroked his chin, "I\'ve found a good location, but there are some troubles that you need to resolve."

Xue Jing: "Oh?"

...

After talking with Li Qi and having him check on his current martial arts progress, then sparring with Chen Fuguang and Meng Qingjiao, the time had passed to a little after three in the afternoon.

Xue Jing intended to also find Zhu Shanying, his senior sister Zhu, to apologize and explain why he lost the wine-red suit and Crouching Rabbit Sword she had given him.

But he heard that Senior Sister Zhu had gone back to her hometown in the First Urban Circle and didn\'t know when she would return to Qingcheng.

He tried calling her, but it didn\'t connect; the voice message indicated no signal, so Xue Jing had no choice but to give up for the time being.

Leaving the Hidden Dragon Dojo, Xue Jing first bought some cakes and pastries and then hailed a taxi to Qingcheng Affiliated Middle School.

Upon arrival, he made a bee-line for the Qingcheng University campus library and, after swiping his card, arrived at the seventh floor of the library.

Just like the old and quiet attic he was used to, as soon as Xue Jing entered, he saw that familiar figure.

Sitting alone in a wooden chair in the resting area, her high ponytail gently swaying, her enviable volume of hair flowed like a black waterfall.

Even though she was by herself, her proper sitting posture was impeccable, and her beautiful, ethereal appearance felt close and approachable, like the girl next door you grew up with.

Yet the serene, mysterious aura around her subtly highlighted her extraordinariness.

Wu Youqing put down the book titled "Inverse Cross Sword," looking over at Xue Jing with a smile in her lovely lavender eyes.

"You\'re here; take a seat."

She stood up, went over to a wall, and pulled out a hidden cabinet, taking out tea ware and leaves and placing them on the table.

Xue Jing sat across from her, placing the bag with the pastries on the table and said with a soft chuckle, "BOSS, I\'m back."

Wu Youqing hummed in acknowledgment, not speaking, but silently started the process of making tea.

It wasn\'t until two steaming hot cups of tea were ready that she opened the bag Xue Jing had brought over, took out a cake, and placed it on the table.

Then she sat down, picked up her teacup, and took a light sip.

Xue Jing also picked up his teacup and drank a sip of tea brewed from the "Sweet Water Jug," which still had that strange, indescribable sweet taste.

But it seemed that he had grown accustomed to it and actually found it quite acceptable.

At this moment, Wu Youqing rummaged through the small purse on the chair next to her and took out a black ID card, which she handed to Xue Jing.

"Give me your Custodian card, and use this one from now on."

Upon hearing this, Xue Jing took out the Class C Custodian card from his pocket, handed it to Wu Youqing, and took the new one from her hand.

He looked at his new Custodian card.

It was still made of an obsidian-like material. On the front was the \'Death of God\' sketched out in white strokes, but compared to the Class C card, there were a few purple embellishments on this one, making it look even nicer.

The back had two lines of text.

[Wu\'s Divine Relic Containment and Research Co., Ltd.]

[Specially Appointed Class B Divine Relic Custodian·Xue Jing]

"Huh? Why did I suddenly get promoted, BOSS?"

Xue Jing was somewhat puzzled.

Wu Youqing spoke leisurely, "You resolved a Mirror World... and not just any Mirror World, but one that blended with the Intersecting Boundaries. You managed to kill a juvenile Pureblood Dragon Species all by yourself in there. After I reported it upwards, they granted you a special exemption from any examination and directly promoted you to a Class B Custodian."

"From now on, you\'ll be able to take on Class B containment tasks and have higher authority, with access to more Divine Relic information."

As Xue Jing caressed his Class B Custodian card in hand, a sense of achievement from the promotion surfaced in his mind. He raised an eyebrow and said:

"So, did my salary increase?"

Wu Youqing nodded, "Naturally, it has to increase. The base salary is two million, and in addition, the bonus after successful containment will accordingly be higher."

"Well, that\'s great."

Xue Jing nodded with a laugh.

After a pause, he spoke up again, "BOSS, don\'t you have anything you want to ask?"

Wu Youqing asked indifferently, "Ask what?"

Xue Jing thought for a moment and then said, "Like, how I became a Divine Chosen."

Wu Youqing took a sip of her tea, her light purple eyes eerily fixed on Xue Jing.

It wasn\'t until Xue Jing became somewhat uncomfortable that she showed a smile:

"You\'re lying."

She crossed her arms, leaned back in her chair with her legs crossed in jeans, assuming a queen-like posture.

"You are not a Divine Chosen."

"You are far more special than The Chosen..."

Under those eyes that seemed to see through everything, Xue Jing\'s heartbeat skipped for a moment.

However, his face remained unflustered, and he calmly asked, "Oh? Why do you say that?"

Wu Youqing laughed and said offhandedly:

"Because I am The Chosen."

"And you... lack the essence~"

Xue Jing tapped his fingers on the table.

Seeing his slight embarrassment, Wu Youqing continued with a smile, speaking softly:

"Don\'t worry, if you don\'t want to tell me, I won\'t force you to say anything."

Xue Jing heaved a slight sigh.

"I really can\'t win against you, big sis."
