Probably not

Senior but catching up?

I think there can be friendships between weak and strong people in this world that aren't benefit driven. Although there can be bias if they meet when one is strong and the other is weak, if a weak and strong brother have always been good friends then they probably aren't in a benefit driven friendship. Your argument makes it sound like friendships are only created for benefits, when in actuality they're created for things like enjoying time with friends. It's normal to not understand friendship since you likely don't have friends based on your argument. A wuxia world doesn't stop friendship from happening without benefit bias, it just makes it less likely. The sect master might still be friends with his non-cultivator childhood buddy because they are friends to be friends, not for benefits. This can happen because people in these worlds are ultimately still people, but many authors portray these people as stereotypical and force them into the same groove for many different reasons. A wuxia world can affect a lot of things about people, but in the end there is still the aspect of humanity we all have that just isn't conveyed well in these novels.

Decisively... after literally more than half a chapter of filler.

If the author is reading this, please refrain from using this sort of peanut gallery style. Not only is it overused, the style transforms the audience in the novel into complete 1d idiots who aren't proper characters.

Multiple periods after somehing often stand for a time skip, change in setting, or a continuation of a list. The ... is used to indicate that there are more realms unknown to the main character at this time or maybe ones the author doesn't need us to know. Because of this, he author put .. to indicate unknown and/or unnecessary info.

I feel like this much is enough that the novice gift package is actually something that has to be strategically used rather than a cheat. The author may just be learning and trying to shadow others, because the quality of this work is pseudo-okay, which is better than most wuxia novels.

Yes, by 6 you can transition from average af baby to the bare minimum features. The prince likely has less fat all over his body, hair grown out, and can probably do some basic talking. The author isn't trying to say that this kid looks like a teenager, just that he and other kids his age can be separated using looks for the most part.

It can't really be that hard to see that the guy isn't dead, right?

Yeah just don't tell anyone in the group your plan until you actually arrive. Like, you arrive at the bank and then Jimmy tells you that we're actually there to rob it?
