Just as Ning An was lost in thought, he saw a group of people disembarking from the plane.
Without hesitation, Ning An went to meet them.
"Miss Gu, welcome to Qing Shan Base!"
Ning An said slowly.
At first glance, he saw Gu Nian Xia among the crowd.
He had already seen a photo of Gu Nian Xia before.
She was even more beautiful in person than in the photo.
However, he mainly viewed her with an appreciative eye.
Wen Zhi Qiao was no slouch in terms of appearance, but compared to Gu Nian Xia, it was more a difference in temperament.
This woman had enjoyed a lot of attention, and she was a prodigy from Kyoto Arts University.
She naturally exuded an air of brilliance and transcendence.
"Thank you, City Lord Ning."
Gu Nian Xia wasn't surprised to see Ning An, and she responded accordingly.
It was clear that she had researched Qing Shan Base before arriving.
Although she had absolute confidence in herself.
She didn't underestimate Ning An either.
After all, Ning An was not much older than her, and he was already at the Fourth Rank.
While not a prodigy, he could be considered a genius.
This was why Gu Nian Xia treated him with courtesy.
Of course, Ning An could also sense the pride of this gifted young woman.
If they were the same age, he might feel a bit of jealousy and dissatisfaction.
However, Ning An was quite composed now, unconcerned.
He had a cheat!
As long as he had enough time, he could compete with those prodigies.
As for Gu Nian Xia, she was seven years younger than him, and their cultivation gap was significant.
It was impossible for her to surpass him.
Although Gu Nian Xia was young, she had seen a lot.
Due to her acting career, she had encountered many people.
But this Qing Shan base leader was unique.
His eyes were clear, and his aura was calm.
Gu Nian Xia had never encountered someone like this before.
"This is an interesting person!"
Gu Nian Xia couldn't help but mutter to herself.
But she didn't really care.
She was confident that she would surpass this person soon.
Kyoto Arts University, founded on the principles of martial arts and music for nearly three hundred years, was not something Southern River Martial Arts University could match.
Although their thoughts were different, their conversation was pleasant.
But the concert was about to begin, and Ning An didn't want to disturb her too much.
He knew that every performance of Martial Arts Music required a lot of preparation.
And she had given so many concerts, her mental energy must have been depleted.
At least Ning An could see that.
Gu Nian Xia's spiritual energy was quite depleted.
Thankfully, Qing Shan Base was the last stop in Southwest China.
After the concert, she would most likely leave the Southwest and return to Kyoto.
After seeing her to the concert hall, Ning An went to find Wen Zhi Qiao.
Many people who had obtained tickets had already entered the concert hall, which had been prepared by Qing Shan Base.
It was a temporary venue.
In this era, everyone's blood energy was far superior to normal people.
Constructing a concert hall that could hold two hundred thousand people didn't take much time.
"Husband, what's Gu Nian Xia like?"
Once they reached their seats, Wen Zhi Qiao couldn't help but ask.
Her words were filled with curiosity.
She had already searched for information about Gu Nian Xia online.
She was mainly envious of her talent.
"A gifted young woman."
Ning An thought for a moment before responding.
He added internally, "Just a bit too proud."
But she did have reason to be proud.
At this point, Gu Nian Xia should be able to reach the Mid-Rank, and there was a high chance she could reach the High-Rank.
But her mental fortitude needed improvement.
Hearing Ning An's assessment, even Wen Zhi Qiao was more curious.
Fortunately, as time passed, the concert officially began.
Gu Nian Xia, dressed in a long gown, stood before the stage, holding a guqin.
She instantly captivated the attention of the audience.
Gu Nian Xia had long since become accustomed to these gazes, and she simply smiled slightly.
The charm of her smile made countless hearts flutter.
Wen Zhi Qiao finally understood what her husband meant.
Because this woman's brilliance was truly unmatched.
Even Wen Zhi Qiao felt a sense of inferiority in front of her.
"Focus!"
Just then, Ning An's voice rang out.
It spread throughout the concert hall.
Everyone reacted promptly.
They were here to listen to Martial Arts Music to break through their cultivation.
How could they let their minds wander and get lost in her charm?
Many people quickly regained their composure.
Even Gu Nian Xia's beautiful eyes flickered with a spark.
When she entered, she had given herself a mental boost.
The entire audience had succumbed to her charm, except for that calm man.
He was completely unaffected!
She couldn't help but feel a bit of frustration.
Fortunately, Gu Nian Xia hadn't forgotten the purpose of her trip.
Soon, under the guidance of her hands and her unique spiritual energy, a special melody echoed out.
This was Martial Arts Music!
Many in the concert hall were captivated by this unique melody.
Immersed in it, the aura of their bodies began to increase steadily.
Ning An also felt the melody.
Vaguely, the moments of enlightenment he had experienced in the past seemed to converge and explode.
In an instant, his spirit and blood energy surged.
"No rush!"
Ning An did his best to suppress this outburst.
He knew that this eruption would allow him to reach the peak of the Fourth Rank.
But he hadn't forgotten that he still had an enlightenment opportunity left unused.
He wanted to wait until the Martial Arts Music ended.
He would combine this suppressed outburst with that opportunity.
Then, he would step directly into the Fifth Rank, even taking many steps on the Fifth Rank path.
The more he suppressed the enlightenment brought by the Martial Arts Music now.
The greater the outburst would be later!
This was an opportunity he couldn't miss.
