Yang Xi constantly felt that Long Yun was gazing at him with an intense, burning look in her eyes, as if they could breathe fire, making him feel completely ill at ease. As a martial artist, his perception of his surroundings was extremely acute, yet Long Yun's gaze left him baffled. Every time their eyes met, he sensed an indescribable passion, as though a burning flame were hidden within her eyes.
Though he knew this might simply be an inadvertent expression on Long Yun's part, that blazing emotion was impossible for him to ignore. Such a gaze normally appeared only when looking at one's beloved; however, they shared no such relationship, and so Yang Xi began to wonder if he was simply overthinking things.
Everyone was waiting for Yang Xi. Finally seeing him finish chatting with President Luo, they eagerly rushed over to greet him. Chen Qitong and Zhan Ruirui were especially expectant; ever since their experiences together with Yang Xi in Country RZ, they had gained profound insights, and upon returning they had applied themselves even more diligently to practicing martial arts. Now that they had stood out in the national qualifiers, they were naturally thrilled.
