Bab 231: Phoenix Jade Hairpin

The girls ahead of them failed the test one by one. There were a few disciples with some sword training experience who were able to cut a few of the sticks, but none of the non-swordsmen disciples in the line seemed to be learning from their success. They all just seemed to be preoccupied with the jade Phoenix Hairpin that was securely placed at the top of a podium for everyone to see.

...

"Wow, look how pretty it is."

"It's so red~"

"I'd do anything to get my hands on that."

The girls admired the Phoenix Jade hairpin endlessly.

...

Xiao Fang wasn't the kind of guy to covet the things that other people wanted, nor did he have any interest in a fancy hairpin, but hearing the way the girls described it reminded him of Li Lian. Even the name itself made it sound like it was something crafted specifically for her.
