Upon hearing this, Shi Xiaole nodded in understanding.
Chu Lin was indeed nearly at the Qi Absorption Realm at first and had consolidated his skills for a time. After a month, it was entirely possible he had broken through to the Qi Absorption Realm.
Moreover, with Chu Lin's talent, a breakthrough in a large realm would undoubtedly result in a massive improvement in his actual strength.
"Senior Brother Shi, should we say you are currently practicing and temporally ignore Chu Lin?"
After a moment of hesitation, one male disciple proposed an idea.
Before the rise of Shi Xiaole, Chu Lin was undoubtedly the first disciple among the Thirteen Sects of Mountain Luyan. His talents were widely recognized, and having broken through to the Qi Absorption Realm, he must be extremely powerful now.
Shi Xiaole might also be strong, but against Chu Lin who was in the Qi Absorption Realm, his chances weren't as certain.
