Seeing Yun Cai and Ji Ya evenly matched, Hu Yan's eyes widened in shock.
Origin Energy was Ji Ya's greatest strength!
How could Ji Ya fail to suppress Yun Cai in a contest of Origin Energy?
He had long known that Yun Cai had extraordinary talent and insight, but he hadn't expected her to catch up to Ji Ya in his area of strength.
Unlike Ji Ya, whose expression grew more and more solemn, Yun Cai remained calm, as if she had expected this all along.
With Hu Yan watching, Ji Ya didn't want to lose.
He kept increasing the flow of Origin Energy, whipping up ever greater waves. Gradually, the cliff beneath their feet began to tremble.
"That's enough. Let's stop here. I lost."
Yun Cai suddenly spoke. As soon as she finished, she was the first to withdraw her palm.
Ji Ya's expression changed dramatically. He hurriedly yanked back the Origin Energy he'd unleashed, lest he hurt Yun Cai.
Yun Cai, meanwhile, turned and walked down the mountain, as casually as drifting clouds and flowing water.
Ji Ya breathed a sigh of relief. If he'd hurt Yun Cai, he wouldn't have known how to explain it to their master.
But...
Was her Origin Energy really inferior to his?
Watching Yun Cai's retreating figure, Ji Ya couldn't shake the feeling that she hadn't used her full strength and had only spared his pride.
"How did her Origin Energy grow so quickly...?"
Ji Ya couldn't figure it out. In his heart, Yun Cai's talent had already surpassed Zhao Zhen's, making her the strongest among their fellow disciples.
After Yun Cai left, Hu Yan walked over and exclaimed, "Senior Sister Yun Cai really is amazing."
Many people called him the top genius. The fact that he could remain humble was rare.
