Lin Ming turned and saw that the newcomer was Sun Sifan, an Elder of the Seven Profound Martial Mansion's Celestial Mansion.
During the assessment on Autumn Begins Day, Lin Ming had placed first in all three tests. However, due to his limited talent, some elders had disagreed with awarding him first place. Sun Sifan had been one of the few who supported him.
Later, when Lin Ming severely injured Wang Yanfeng, Elder Xu had rushed onto the stage to cause trouble for him. It was Sun Sifan who had stepped in and blocked Elder Xu.
Because of these incidents, Lin Ming had a very good impression of Sun Sifan. He bowed respectfully and said, "Elder Sun."
Sun Sifan quickly helped Lin Ming up, smiling. "There's no need for such formalities. In a couple of days, you'll be a Core Disciple, and our statuses will be equal... Hmm?" Sun Sifan paused. "You're already at the Muscle Strengthening Stage?"
