After returning to the Royal Blossom Hotel, Elder Shan sighed while looking at Yuan, "I knew you'd attract Sect Master Song's attention at the competition with your talents, but I didn't think we'd encounter her before the competition, and she'd even gone as far as trying to poach you. This is going to be problematic…"

"Why would it be problematic? I have already refused her invitation to join the Heavenly Melody Academy," Yuan said.

"Just because you'd refused her invitation doesn't mean she'll give up on you, Disciple Yuan. And knowing Senior Song's character, she'll most likely continue trying to poach you until she gets tired of it, which might take a couple of years if not decades..."

"Hopefully the Sect Master can convince Senior Song to give up." Elder Xuan sighed loudly.

"Anyway, you should stay inside the hotel for the rest of the day. It's best to stay lowkey after what happened at the park today since I'm sure that it is already being spread around as we speak."

As Elder Xuan had guessed, the people that witnessed Yuan's performance were already spreading what they witnessed and how an unknown zither expert from the Dragon Essence Temple had defeated the Heavenly Melody Academy's Sect Master, Song Ling'er. Of course, nobody believed this rumor at first, since they would've known about such an expert already if he really existed.

But as more and more people began spreading the news with even some reputable musicians saying the same thing, some people could not help but start believing the rumors to a certain extent.

"Since there's nothing to do until the competition tomorrow, I'll log off for today," Yuan said to the elders before logging off in their room and spending the remainder of the day cultivating in the real world, even advancing a level by the end of the day, reaching 7th level Spirit Apprentice.

The following day, after returning to the game and some preparations, Yuan and the others left the hotel and went to the gathering area again.
