"Sister Xi Wei does he know what dream mirror is?"

Xi Wei seemed to think for a moment.

"The "mirror of a dream is a world of illusions created by a person. My father can make it. But, I don't know how."

"I'm sure Big Brother Xi Wei can definitely make it."

"I can't. But, don't know. Those are two different things. But, I know there's one thing that's similar to a dream mirror."

"What's that?"

"The name is a vacuum."

"Oh, I know! It was a place where people fought without hurting each other. The place was also very effective for training the techniques one wanted to master. A vacuum can also be used as a place for cultivation practice."

"It's true that way, but the techniques mastered won't be as good as when training them in the real world. Therefore, I don't like it much."

"Son Xi Wei is too pessimistic. Why not try it? There is nothing wrong with a vacuum. It just depends on how one's reasoning is. You and Elena told me about it."

Ying Yue was a little jealous when she mentioned Elena's name. Xi Wei noticed it and chuckled softly. The mature brown-skinned young man only knew that his Little Brother who was easily jealous. He was quite understanding about Ying Yue's feelings.

'At that time he was like this too. She was jealous of Fang Xincai, her own brother. But, yes ... if I were in his position I would do the same.'

"What is Big Brother Xi Wei thinking?"

"Nothing."

"Oh .. fine."

Xi Wei sighed in relief.

'It seems like it will be difficult for me to focus on training. Ying Yue who is like this worries me.'

"When are we going to start training?"

"Now."

***

Xi Wei and Ying Yue together opened their eyes slowly. Their training was over and they found Ruofan and Xincai still continuing their training.

"It turns out they came too. Oh yes, Ying Yue."

Ying Yue instantly turned her attention to Xi Wei who called out to her.

"Yes? What's up, Brother Xi Wei?"

"Have you asked Xincai when you're going back to the Palace?"

Ying Yue shook her head.

"Yet. But, according to the letter from Brother Xincai, we will be back in about two or three days."

Xi Wei was seen thinking for a while.

"Then, come with me somewhere."

"Eh? Is it okay to leave them here like this?"

"You are cold-hearted, yes ...."

Xi Wei laughed. It's true that he is cold-hearted. So, he won't deny it.

"Let's skip the Arena First Challenge first."

Ying Yue was a little worried just in case Xi Wei told her to duet past the First Challenge Arena that she had once messed up right. His worries were evident by the words of Xi Wei who invited him to a duet. But on the one hand, he was happy because the mature brown-skinned youth believed him.

"You're worried about that fucked up duet yesterday? Don't think too much! You've been good at doing all the directing. It's just that Wei Ruofan messed it up a little with the dope."

"That's my fault."

Xi Wei patted Ying Yue's head softly and tried to encourage her, although it sounded more like a mockery.

"If you keep thinking pessimistically about yourself, how can you defeat General Wang and Xiao Ziling? You must be confident, even if you still lose far, Li Ying Yue."

But that spirit boost of ridicule had influenced Ying Yue to keep a positive mind. He certainly did not want to be betrothed again by the Emperor. Not until Xi Wei returns, after his promise is fulfilled—success in finding Xi Chen and Jialing.

"I can do it!"

Ying Yue looked at Xi Wei like there was a blaze in her eyes. Xi Wei smiled as the Princess did not want to waste a chance.

'If I could be like Li Ying Yue .., I guess I I would have found Father and Mother. But, yeah, that's it. I promised I would find them too. If Ying Yue is so positive she can defeat Senior Brother and Xiao Ziling, then I should also be able to keep the promise I have made.'

"Now, let's get started!"

Xi Wei darted forward and gave direction to Ying Yue who darted forward after getting the cue from the sapodilla-skinned young man. Their duet is very good, like a beautiful dance that is deliberately exhibited under the twilight shade. Xi Wei's gentle and energetic movements blended perfectly with Ying Yue's peaceful and elegant movements.

"Speed up the tempo, Li Ying Yue."

Ying Yue did everything well under Xi Wei's direction. The two of them arrived smoothly at the end of the First Challenge Arena. The Great Princess seemed very happy because she managed to do all the commands of the Youth correctly.

At the end of the starting line of the First Challenge Arena, Xincai stood upright and stared steadily at Xi Wei and Ying Yue. As one could see, he and Ruofan had already completed their training in a vacuum. Ruofan himself was already in the spectator path, the path Xi Wei had pointed for him when he and Ying Yue were first brought to the venue.

"Wait me! How dare you leave me again, Xi Wei! Fuck up!"

Xincai shouted and clenched his hands. He was eager to nail down Xi Wei's face because he had acted as well as he could. Xincai is not serious. It was just a form of frustration.

"You know where we're going anyway. Do I have to wait for you again, Princess?"

Just this time Xi Wei called Xincai the Princess. Usually, the young man is told not to say it. Xincai knew his mood was good. Ying Yue must have already given Xi Wei an unusual boost. The Third Princess Master could tell that.

"Of course you have to wait for me!"

"Don't say much, come quickly or I'll stay!"

Xincai put up the horses well. He's darting forward. Ying Yue's eyes could indeed follow the speed of Xincai's movements, but she did not expect that her Third Brother's movements would feel so soft, like the flapping of a dragonfly's wings.

"That's the advantage he has. Xincai is fast, accurate and precise. He and Xiangheng are the best partners I have. They are great people."

Ying Yue could see a sincere smile developing on Xi Wei's face. He smiled because of it too.

Xincai stopped right in front of Xi Wei with his arms outstretched right in front of the young man's neck.

"Congratulations, Fang Xincai. You're growing a lot."
