"When I was your age, compared to you now, you could probably take on three or four of me."
Lin Ye retracted his spear and stood still, saying calmly, "Mr. Chen, you're being too modest. If you hadn't been holding back, I would have lost long ago."

"Good is good, and bad is bad."
"I never let my personal likes or dislikes affect my judgment of a student's ability."
"Lin Ye, the city-wide mock exam is tomorrow."

Chen Meng sat down and gestured for Lin Ye to sit as well.
"Several years ago, the Alliance reformed the assessment standards for martial arts students. They added a spiritual fortitude test, and it's weighted quite heavily."
