Xi Shenlian's advancement happened silently.
There were no obvious fluctuations whatsoever.
As for the so-called special effects of advancing, there were none at all.
There was no spectacle like "the moon rising over the sea" or "purple qi coming from the east for thirty thousand miles."
But to the beings beside him, it was still extremely obvious.
None of the changes in Xi Shenlian could escape their notice.
It was a strange feeling, rather like watching another player's character flash with golden light and level up on the spot in an online game.
"Advanced?"
Tian Yuanli, who was sleeping beside Xi Shenlian, could not even be bothered to open her eyes. She first stretched lazily on the cloud bed, then unhurriedly asked this question.
"Mm."
She still did not open her eyes and merely continued asking indifferently, "Any thoughts?"
As the one answering.
Without even needing to think, Xi Shenlian immediately gave a very definite answer.
"...My actual thought is that it was nothing special and rather dull. Other than that, I don't feel much of anything."
Everything he said gave people the impression that this was less worthwhile than eating a bowl of noodles.
There was no sense of ceremony or feeling whatsoever.
At the very least, when people went out to eat a bowl of noodles, they would still seriously consider what kind of noodles they were eating.
"All right. That feeling of yours is far too realistic and simple... I imagine that once many people learn that your reaction is actually this plain, they'll feel as if their dreams have shattered. To them, this is something they dream of, and however excited or agitated they became would be perfectly understandable... Yet you didn't even have a particularly strong emotional reaction. It really leaves one at a loss
