"What is it, Xiao Tao?" she asked, looking at Tao Xiaotao's flushed little face, which was red with excitement. Seeing Shuqi walk over, Tao Xiaotao hurriedly pulled on Shuqi's sleeve with one hand while pointing forward with the other, indicating the spirit field Shuqi had originally left her to practice her spells on.
At this look, Shuqi was somewhat speechless. She could tell that Tao Xiaotao's Five Elements Technique was passable—at least her Earth-Breaking Technique was decent. That entire patch of spirit field looked vibrant enough once planted with spirit plants, except that, looking across the field, the spirit plants were planted crookedly and haphazardly. The whole plot could be said to be rather chaotic.
Yet when she saw Tao Xiaotao's expectant little face silently begging for praise, the words Shuqi had originally intended to say caught right in her throat. Never mind; the girl had tried quite hard, after all. Flaws could not obscure the virtues, and it wouldn't do to cause her little sister to lose confidence.
