Shao Yunduan kept a low-profile. No one knew that he was a close friend with the lineal grandson of the Xie Family and the Young Master of the most wealthy Yuezheng Family. He remained absolutely low-key at the gatherings. He drew no attention to himself.
But he ran into some Cultivated Talents from the same county and was mocked. Some people who did not know the truth looked down at him as well.
Shao Yunduan did not care. He replied without showing emotions. "Whether or not I am able to make it to the next level doesn't depend on your words. It depends on the actual result."
Not everyone was belittling him though. Shao Yunduan had befriended two Cultivated Talents from another county called Lu Min and Gu Zhiyou.
It was the second time for Lu Min to take the examination and the first for Gu Zhiyou.
The three of them had a nice chat and soon became friends.
