Abandoned Shed

After returning to her own place, Elder Shan asked Disciple Fei, "What are you going to do now?"

"I am going to prepare myself for the competition and practice my zither arts with Disciple Yuan until then. If what he said is true— that he has never played the zither before until very recently, I believe that his skills will reach an unbelievably high level within a week before the tournament."

"W-Wait a second… Did you just say Disciple Yuan has only recently started playing the zither?" Elder Shan looked at her with wide eyes.

Disciple Fei nodded and said, "I know it's really hard to believe such words, but I don't see a reason for him to lie, and he doesn't seem to be the kind of person to lie about such things."

"Hard to believe? Haha! That's hardly true!" Elder Shan suddenly began laughing, dumbfounding her.

  And she continued a moment later, "With his comprehension skills, it would be more shocking if he doesn't learn so quickly!"
