Only after a long while did she finally say, "Do you know what grade it is?"
What grade?
Chen Wen drew in a deep breath, then said, "I don't know what grade it is to the Ascension Alliance, but to me, it truly is very important."
Luo Ruhua looked deeply at Chen Wen, then said, "In that case, if you can take first place, I can help you think of a way."
First place?
Did that mean the final first-place winner?
That was far harder than obtaining one of the final three slots.
Chen Wen's brow froze of its own accord.
"Little Aunt, aren't you making things difficult for him?"
Luo Yuehan spoke in dissatisfaction.
Luo Ruhua said calmly, "This is my most basic requirement. If he cannot meet it, then there is no point in me helping."
"But you..."
Just as Luo Yuehan was about to say something more, Chen Wen spoke directly. "All right. I agree."
Luo Yuehan immediately glanced at Chen Wen, but she said nothing more.
Luo Ruhua nodded. "Then I'll wish you success in advance."
In truth, when she put forward this requirement, it was already a kind of refusal in disguise.
She also did not think Chen Wen could obtain first place.
One had to know, that meant fighting tooth and nail with a monster.
As for what kind of existence that monster was, she knew it far too well.
She simply had not expected Chen Wen to really agree to it. That had indeed exceeded her expectations.
But that was all. She had not truly taken it to heart.
Chen Wen solemnly cupped his fists. "Whether this succeeds or not, I still have to say thank you."
"Mm." Luo Ruhua nodded.
"Then I'll take my leave first."
Chen Wen spoke again.
"Go on."
