When the spirit boat docked at the shore, Xiang Qi was meditating in her cabin.
Though she too was a True Disciple of the Five Excellences, Burning Gold Valley's standards for accepting disciples were somewhat lower than those of the other four great sects. Her talent was indeed somewhat inferior to Su Junyu's.

If polished properly, an Upper Second Rank Foundation Base still had hope of ascending to the next rank, or even reaching the Principal First Rank.
For that reason, Xiang Qi cultivated far more diligently than disciples of her generation.
