Hearing Jing Yi say that there would be another combat practice session, the crowd automatically parted and formed several circles. In the circle where Jiang Yuejing stood, a male disciple wielding a spear immediately stepped into the center, waiting for an opponent to spar with.
Jing Yi had been keeping an eye on his disciple. Seeing that Jiang Yuejing still showed no intention of stepping forward even as the second round of sparring began, he walked over to her circle and patted her shoulder. "Disciple, go up and try."
Suddenly called out by her master, Jiang Yuejing opened her mouth to say, "But—" but was cut short by a look from Jing Yi, and immediately changed her words, "Alright, I'll go give it a try."
