The Patrol Commander's words were better left unsaid.

Once spoken,

the people's gazes toward him became even more contemptuous.

One by one, the onlookers spoke up:

"Hah! Grand Tutor Zhou appreciates him? Reluctant to part? Even if you want to argue, you should at least give a convincing reason."

"This is the Grand Tutor Zhou's Residence after all. Aren't you afraid of boasting under the guise of Grand Tutor Zhou's reputation, and if he hears about it, you'll no longer be able to remain in the ranks of Patrol Commanders?"

"Even though Grand Tutor Zhou has a passion for the feng shui path and treats others warmly, he couldn't possibly be that enthusiastic towards someone. It sounds fake as soon as it's said."

"I..."

Seeing that he had already stated the truth, but people still did not believe it and acted as if he was deceiving them, the Patrol Commander's magician didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Grand Tutor Zhou arrives!"

The voice of the household servant sounded.

Not far away, many people who were conversing stopped and looked in one direction.

Zhou Xuan Ying, surrounded by a few younger generations, approached.

Seeing someone greeting Zhou Xuan Ying, Zhou Xuan Ying also nodded and smiled in return.

On the side of the Patrol Commander's magician.

A few magicians smiled and conveyed:

"Didn't you say Grand Tutor Zhou values Wang Ye highly? Then why not go ask him directly."

"You only need to have Grand Tutor Zhou personally say that he values Wang Ye, and we'll believe you."

The Patrol Commander's magician didn't take their words to heart.

Even if Zhou Xuan Ying did value Wang Ye and had a good impression of him, directly approaching and asking Zhou Xuan Ying in this setting would likely leave a bad impression in Zhou Xuan Ying's mind.

Moreover, generally speaking, such notable figures like Zhou Xuan Ying cannot casually express appreciation for others in such settings.

Because in public places, every look and gesture by such figures can be speculated upon by others.

Leading to action.

So, unless it was a particularly strong admiration, Zhou Xuan Ying would not show it openly, even if he truly appreciated someone.

The few who spoke up to Zhou Xuan Ying earlier, seeing no response from him, expressed contempt once again.

"Just a bragger."

"You're bringing shame to the magicians' reputation."

"I really don't understand. If you don't know, just listen quietly. Why say anything and deceive everyone? I don't see the point in it."

One taunting voice after another caused the Patrol Commander's magician to breathe heavily, his fists clenched, and muscles twitch on his face.

But he knew the weight of matters.

After all, as a magician in the Patrol Commanders.

He knew well what to do and when.

Just then.

Zhou Xuan Ying, while walking, cast his gaze upon Shi Heng, Wang Ye, Han Hong, and Qiu Te, and with a smile, he walked toward them.

After greeting Shi Heng and Han Hong, he stopped by Wang Ye, patting his head like a kind elder chatting with his junior.

The look he gave Wang Ye had changed.

While Zhou Xuan Ying smiled at others, it was noticeable that his smile was purely an expression of amiability, just a surface-level friendly smile.

However, the gaze and smile directed at Wang Ye were different.

It carried pure admiration, and even a touch of indulgence.

The tone while speaking with Wang Ye was much gentler: "So, coming here today, have you realized your master's status in the feng shui path?"

"Do you feel your master is amazing?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Heng, standing aside, showed a slight smile.

Despite Shi Heng's significant identity and status, when compared with elder figures in the feng shui path, he was still somewhat lacking.

Yet, for such an elder to praise both him and Wang Ye publicly, in such a large gathering, was an honor in itself.

This time, after the conference, both Wang Ye and he would certainly have more people willing to befriend them in the feng shui path.

"Master has always been an omnipotent existence in my mind," Wang Ye declared without any humility, resembling an innocent child, gazing at Shi Heng with eyes filled with admiration.

Shi Heng, being looked at by Wang Ye with such eyes.

Moved his gaze away calmly, avoiding eye contact with Wang Ye.

Wang Ye appeared so innocent in demeanor.

But Shi Heng knew, Wang Ye... was only pretending!

This kid had plenty of tricks up his sleeve!

Yet, Wang Ye was still praising him, which made him unable to say anything.

Hearing Wang Ye's words, not only did Zhou Xuan Ying not get upset, but his smile grew even more pronounced, warmly saying to Wang Ye:

"Therefore, you must continue to work hard."

"I believe, with your capabilities and talent, in the future, your accomplishments in the feng shui path may surpass the masters, it's quite possible."

After chatting with Wang Ye briefly, Zhou Xuan Ying moved on to attend to others.

After all, today's feng shui discourse conference was held at the Zhou Residence.

And Zhou Xuan Ying, as the host of the Zhou Residence, naturally needed to greet many people.

The people behind the Patrol Commander's magician were all in shock, remaining unstirred even after Zhou Xuan Ying left.

Zhou Xuan Ying genuinely valued Wang Ye.

Moreover, from his recent behavior, it was apparent that it wasn't just ordinary appreciation, but treating Wang Ye as a treasured junior.

Even in the Zhou Residence, Zhou Xuan Ying wouldn't likely display such warmth toward his younger generations in front of so many people.

Zhou Xuan Ying's brief interaction, along with a few minor gestures, was constantly conveying to everyone present that Wang Ye was someone he valued.

Others around gave meaningful looks to their children present.

They, holding slightly higher status, couldn't lower themselves but could have their children build good relations with Wang Ye.

With Zhou Xuan Ying's high regard, regardless of Wang Ye's talent or skill,

it indicated that Wang Ye's future achievements would definitely not be insignificant.
