Shi Qinglu's martial dao training is actually quite remarkable. Perhaps on the Hundred Flowers Holy Land, purely in terms of martial dao training, Lu Mingye might be slightly stronger than her, but only marginally.
However, when combined with her poison techniques, Shi Qinglu's combat power instantly surged significantly. Comparing comprehensively, Lu Mingye's combat strength is actually lower than Shi Qinglu's.
Therefore, nominally, Lu Mingye and Shi Qinglu are the twin stars of the Hundred Flowers Holy Land. However, deep down, Shi Qinglu doesn't acknowledge this.
She always believed that she was far superior to Lu Mingye.
Thus, before the grand genius competition, Shi Qinglu hardly participated in any disputes among the younger generation. Her vision and perspective were already set on a higher plane.
