Ying Wuji shook his head. "It's fine, but don't act rashly again next time."
This time, it had only triggered some strange changes and there was no danger, but there was no telling what might happen next time. Acting rashly to verify something before certain matters had been understood was a very reckless way to do things.
However, it was precisely this cultivator's action that let Ying Wuji see a few clues. He said, "When you joined your sect, you should have had your talent tested. What was the result?"

The two of them went back and forth, as if they had reached some conclusion. Among the group of Cloud River Realm cultivators, some looked thoughtful, while others were completely at a loss.
