Zhan Tianxia paid no mind to her status, giving her a cool glance before looking away.
Dai Zichen, however, was getting antsy. 'Her status is extraordinary. If anything happens to her during this trial, my career in the Sect will be over.' He said in a deep voice, "Qingxue, step down at once."
Xia Qingxue calmly shook her head, her voice cool. "It's fine. I know my limits."
"Young people need to be tempered. Don't coddle them like precious treasures. You lot, go and give it a try." Old Ghost Bai was happy to see this development and also sent the Celestial Vein Sect disciples who had accompanied him to participate.
The Sect had far too little intelligence on Xia Qingxue, so this was a perfect opportunity to probe her true abilities.
Dai Zichen snorted coldly and gave a meaningful look. The Golden Crow Sect disciples present rose to their feet and gathered around Xia Qingxue. No matter what the trial entailed, there was always safety in numbers.
