Beisitian toyed with the competition qualification token in her hand, the corners of her mouth curving into a aningful smile. With the talisman powder she presented, it was impossible to obtain the competition qualification token. Although she had a good relationship with the Wei Family, their overall strength in the Capital City and other major cities was decent, but still lacking compared to so prestigious families and major schools.
So, her ability to obtain the qualification token was certainly not due to her own strength. What could it be?
Beisitian guessed that soone wanted to set her up, hoping she would make a fool of herself in the competition!
She couldn’t help but recall what Bei Jiale had said. She actually knew that Bei Jiale was provoking her, and she also felt her progress was slow. So, she might as well take this opportunity to make a na for herself and officially bring the Qingyu School into the public eye.
Beisitian knew that rather than avoiding passively, it was better to face things proactively. Although having a reputation would inevitably bring many troubles, as long as she was given so ti to grow, she would find a way to deal with those people.
Bei Jiale was trying to buy her ti. If she continued to be overly cautious, it would be a disservice to Jiale’s intentions.
Thinking of this, Beisitian clenched the competition qualification token tightly in her hand. No matter who had given her this opportunity, since it was given, she was determined to make the most of it.
The boy across from her watched Beisitian’s change of expression with keen interest. When she first received the competition qualification token, she didn’t seem happy at all, but now she seed less conflicted.
"Auntie, what are you so torn about?" the fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy asked with a cheerful smile.
Auntie?
Even though Beisitian wasn’t too concerned about how others addressed her, this title left her speechless.
Seeing Beisitian’s expressionless face, the boy giggled, "What’s wrong, Auntie? Did I say sothing incorrect? Won are naturally indecisive, and at your age, Auntie, you’re probably even more so."
Beisitian rested her elbow on the small table, her five fingers curled like scallions supporting her chin, her lips slightly upturned, and her beautiful eyes half-closed, yet the light in her eyes was exceptionally bright.
"The adult world is beyond a child’s understanding, and the world of won is beyond a man’s, so you naturally wouldn’t understand what I’m torn about."
Being stared at by such expressive eyes, and with the other party being an exceptionally beautiful... auntie, the boy first felt a bit uncomfortable, then his cheeks began to flush.
At the boy’s age, he wasn’t quite a child, but not yet an adult either, especially as he considered himself capable of handling everything independently. Hearing Beisitian speaking about adults and n left him feeling discontent.
"Don’t act all mature. You’re only a few years older than ; you haven’t eaten that many more years’ worth of food or gotten that much wiser. You’d better solve your own problems first!" the boy retorted, blushing.
It wasn’t shyness— the boy didn’t even know what shyness was. But being stared at by such a beautiful auntie could make anyone feel embarrassed. This auntie, too, couldn’t she be a bit more reserved!
Seeing the boy’s discomfort, Beisitian finally felt satisfied. Kids should speak with the candor of children, not pretentiously like adults.
"What’s so funny! Auntie, you should prepare well for the competition. Don’t let it end up that not even I can’t beat you. I’m quite formidable," the boy reminded her, as she didn’t seem nervous at all.
Beisitian laughed, "You are indeed formidable. Your spirit is full and bright, and if you maintain this, you have more than a seventy percent chance to succeed in Spiritual Talisman by the ti you’re thirty. Just rember to keep your original intentions."
The boy’s eyes were very clear, like a lake whose bottom could be seen. If he could maintain his original intentions amidst the muddy waters, he would achieve great things!
The boy was montarily stunned by Beisitian’s words, then smiled, "Of course, I will definitely succeed in Spiritual Talisman. Auntie, I didn’t expect you to have such good judgnt. Just for your keen insight, do your best in the competition, I’m rooting for you!"
"Huh? Aren’t we competitors?" Beisitian thought he was competing this ti.
The boy shook his head, "My grandpa won’t let participate in this competition. I can participate next ti."
"Why?" Beisitian asked curiously.
The boy’s spirit was no less than Wei Zhongxun’s; he could totally participate in the competition, and at his age, making a na for himself shouldn’t be too difficult.
The boy also felt quite disappointed and said, "My grandpa said I’m too young, and my nature isn’t mature enough; becoming famous would only distract ."
Beisitian developed a newfound respect for the boy’s grandpa and said, "Your grandpa is a wise person!"
Most young people who gain fa early achieve little in the long term—not because their talent wavers but because they’re flattered out of focus, convinced they are ’geniuses,’ making it difficult to achieve greatness.
The boy’s grandpa disregarded false fa, showing true wisdom!
"Auntie, I’m off. My na is Shi Guang, what’s yours?" the boy Shi Guang asked with a smile.
"I’m Beisitian, and your na is very nice. I really like it," Beisitian sincerely appreciated his na, and the boy was very genuine too.
The boy giggled, "I like your judgnt, Auntie! I’m leaving!"
Apart from being a little thick-skinned, everything else was quite fine. Beisitian watched Shi Guang’s departing figure with a faint smile. This boy was likely from a prominent family; otherwise, considering his age, even with a naturally abundant spirit, he couldn’t maintain it so well.
Having a big family and reputation makes many things more convenient. Beisitian always understood this; in her past life, she enjoyed many conveniences from her fa. But now, various things constrained her, preventing her from displaying her full capabilities.
However, since she had both ti and opportunity, Beisitian planned to engrave the na Qingyu in the minds of the public, fulfilling her master’s wish from her previous life to promote her lineage.
Holding the competition qualification token, Beisitian was in no mood to continue trading here. She stood up to leave, intending to get so fresh air—there were too many people here, and the atmosphere felt a bit stifling.
Not far away, a grandfather and grandson pair were dumbfounded seeing Beisitian obtain the competition qualification token just like that. The dicinal items Beisitian used for the exchange didn’t even seem outstanding, so how did she qualify for the competition?
Little Yu Zhu seized the opportunity to say, "Grandpa, did you see that? Big sister is amazing; I want to join her school. Is that okay?"
Liu Xinghua glared at Little Yu Zhu and lowered his voice, "Is this what you call amazing? With your spirit, you would at least do well in a family like the Wei Family. I’ve never even heard of the Qingyu School. Don’t be willful, listen to Grandpa, Grandpa won’t lie to you!"
