After sizing up Wang Ye and noticing that he didn't seem to take it too seriously, Meng Qian also breathed a sigh of relief and explained to Wang Ye,
"Of course, although your strength is weak now, whether it be in terms of talent or your own will, you are far stronger than ordinary people."
"No! You are even much stronger than the prodigies of your generation!"
If the other prodigies in the Spirit Star had heard what Meng Qian just said, they would surely have felt very annoyed.
Meng Qian actually compared Wang Ye, a mere Mid-Stage Sixth Grade Cultivator, to them.
Wang Ye, worthy?
Yet, Meng Qian knew that Wang Ye definitely was worthy.
Now, it was simply because Wang Ye had just come from Earth Star, where the True Qi was so scarce that it had resulted in Wang Ye's realm not being very powerful.
However, given Wang Ye's own will and talent, he would surely surpass all these prodigies in a short time.
He would elevate his realm and strength to a higher level.
"So, you don't need to rush, you will definitely become powerful!"
Having just criticized Wang Ye, Meng Qian appropriately offered him some comfort.
To keep Wang Ye from falling into the wrong mindset.
Wang Ye understood what Meng Qian meant.
The look in his eyes towards Meng Qian also contained some gratitude.
Although since he came to the Ice Sect, Meng Qian's training had always been very strict, and she even ridiculed the weakness of his strength in their daily interactions.
But Wang Ye knew that Meng Qian truly had his best interests at heart.
Following Meng Qian's guidance, Wang Ye directly chose the "Sword" category.
Back on Earth Star, Wang Ye had used a sword, and the first technique he mastered upon arriving at the Ice Sect was the Ice Sword Technique.
Therefore, in terms of weapons, the sword was still the most suitable for the current Wang Ye.
As for Wang Ye, although he also knew the Void-Cleaving Blade Technique, Wang Ye already possessed his Ink Qilin Knife.
With the Ink Qilin Knife, Wang Ye could feel that he still hadn't brought out its full strength, or rather, the Ink Qilin Knife was still in a self-sealed state.
Otherwise, just from Elder Meng's explanation,
If the Ink Qilin Knife were to be fully unsealed, not to mention Wang Ye using the knife to confront others, the moment he used the Ink Qilin Knife, he would be instantly killed by its backlash.
Next, all he needed to do was to gradually unseal the Ink Qilin Knife, and he would have an incredibly powerful weapon.
The moment Wang Ye chose the "Sword" character, a formation appeared under the feet of the three of them, the formation lighting up with beams of light.
The next second, they were directly transported to the fifth floor of the Treasure Pavilion of the Ice Sect.
The fifth floor was home to the swords.
When Wang Ye appeared on the fifth floor, he couldn't help but gape at the scene before him, looking utterly like someone who had never seen the world.
Swords.
All swords.
The entire fifth floor was filled with all kinds of swords, colorful and various in styles.
Wang Ye felt like he had entered a sea of swords.
Originally, when he heard from Meng Qian that each floor housed a major category of weapons, Wang Ye merely thought that the Ice Sect had many weapons.
But he truly didn't feel anything special in his heart because he had never witnessed it.
Now, seeing this scene with his own eyes, he realized how shocking the view before him truly was.
Wang Ye's steps seemed to be led by the array of swords as he first approached the closest one to him. He studied it, touched it, and then swiftly moved to another.
Even with Wang Ye's temperament, the sight of so many swords was hard to resist.
Lin Shuang and Meng Qian stood just behind Wang Ye, watching his actions intently.
In their hearts, not a single person looked down on Wang Ye.
After all, they had been in the same position during their first visit to the Ice Sect's Treasure Pavilion, perhaps even more exaggerated in their behavior than Wang Ye.
To them, such behavior was just an embarrassing part of their past, which they neither mentioned nor allowed it to lower their opinion of Wang Ye.
After Wang Ye had been excited for a while, Meng Qian finally reminded him,
"Although there are many weapons here and they come in different levels, my advice for your first weapon selection is to pick the one most suitable for you."
"As the Saint Heir of the Ice Sect, as your power advances to the next level, if you feel that the weapon you chose this time isn't suitable, you can always select another."
Meng Qian spoke persuasively, patiently explaining these matters to Wang Ye.
"Alright."
Wang Ye was aware of these principles.
He had been a bit overwhelmed just now, but by this time, he had begun to regain his composure and understood all this very well.
Wang Ye began making his choice on the fifth floor.
There were so many swords that it was dazzling to behold.
His head was spinning a little.
But Wang Ye, in a very short time, used the techniques and sword moves he knew to roughly determine the sort of sword he needed.
Once he had made his choice, Wang Ye didn't look at the others but headed straight in the direction of that type of sword.
Behind Wang Ye,
Meng Qian and Lin Shuang exchanged glances.
When they looked at Wang Ye again, their eyes were filled with satisfaction.
Wang Ye's sense of purpose was very clear.
Furthermore, the fact that he could respond quickly in such circumstances and choose an effective approach was a testament to Wang Ye's decision-making and inner strength.
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Ye still needed to return to Earth Star to protect it and focus his efforts on the Ice Sect, even if Saint Master Su did not revive, perhaps just with Wang Ye alone, the Ice Sect could rise directly?
Unconsciously, Meng Qian pondered this thought.
Shaking her head, Meng Qian put the thought aside.
In her mind, Lin Shuang's telepathic message echoed at that moment:
"Elder Meng, I have some questions to ask."
Although Lin Shuang was known for her cool demeanor, she always spoke up when she had questions. At this moment, she first wanted to confirm with Meng Qian.
Meng Qian knew that Lin Shuang's questions wouldn't be simple.
Yet Meng Qian still said to Lin Shuang,
"Whatever questions you have, just ask them."
"Alright."
Lin Shuang continued,
"What I mean is, if Wang Ye's power were to advance to a level where he becomes very strong, perhaps even capable of fending off those who wish to invade Earth Star."
"Then, could we, the Ice Sect, stand by Wang Ye's side?"
