Moreover, there was a question that Ling Xiao couldn't wrap his head around: out of so many people, why were Ling Yun'Er and Huangpu Yue the only ones to form a Golden Core?
It was somewhat understandable that Huangpu Yue had formed a Golden Core; she possessed a Spirit Root, after all, even if she had no prior foundation of strength. But why had Lady Ling, whose strength was comparable to Ling Yun'Er's, only seen an increase in her Martial Artist cultivation level from the Canglan Continent without forming a Golden Core herself?
