Xu Fan then gave his treasured grand-disciple a lesson, allowing him to understand in all aspects where he truly stood.
Head bowed, Li Chufan stood beside Xu Fan, his heart heavy, feeling as though his recent progress was inconsequential.
"Compared to ordinary people, you are a genius, and you are somewhat stronger than the geniuses."
"But compared to a Celestial Favorite, you are nothing." Xu Fan said to his favored grand-disciple.
"Master Ancestor, I understand."
"I will cherish the opportunity to be by your side." Li Chufan said earnestly.
"No need to cherish it, it's not like your Master Ancestor has much time left." Xu Fan said with a wave of his hand and a laugh.
"Being by my side is mainly to help you understand the path for the future."
"Yes, my dad also said the same thing to me." Li Chufan responded.
"Then study well by my side and aim to surpass your grandpa in the future." Xu Fan patted Li Chufan's shoulder.
