"Sure, alright. Let's do it here..." The old man said. "Make someone realize that one's intuition isn't always right..." After saying that, he looked pointedly at Xyla Quest. Xyla didn't notice the old man looking at her, but she could feel that he was talking about her.

"Do you know how to cut original jade rocks open too?" Xyla was shocked to hear this.

Xavier nodded gently. "Yeah. My father is an expert in this... I picked up a few things from him..."

Xyla instantly raised her thumb at Xavier. "You're awesome..."

Xavier smiled. After that, he went up the stage.
