X-Dragon Era

However, whether emotionally or rationally, such an invitation was impossible for Zixia to refuse. First of all... Zixia did not repel the idea of engaging in some shameful acts with Xin Yun. Secondly... being able to join the Fantasy Dream Team and become a part of the Sky-opening Sect was definitely Zixia's ultimate dream!

Not to mention Zixia, even Po Kong, with his identity and status, placed such importance on the World Academy Competition. How could Zixia not care? It could be said with certainty that having the chance to participate in the World Academy Competition even once would mean one had not lived in vain!

As for the Sky-opening Sect, there was no need to say anything further. Zixia, who had already completely calculated the Sect's future prospects, believed that even Po Kong's number one family could not compare. It was undoubtedly the greatest clan that Zixia could imagine!

What excited Zixia the most was that the Sky-opening Sect was still in its nascent stage. If she joined now, she would surely become a legendary figure, akin to the founding leader of the Sect. It could be said with certainty that this was the greatest opportunity she could encounter. If she missed this chance, she would definitely regret it for the rest of her life.

With that thought, Zixia resolutely lifted her head, puffed out her delicate chest, and bravely said to Xin Yun, "Whatever you ask of me, I will agree. I accept your invitation, whether it's to join the Fantasy Dream Team or the Sky-opening Sect. I am very eager to join!"

Seeing Zixia agree, Xin Yun laughed excitedly and nodded immediately, "Good, very good... From now on, you are the head of the Dark Division of the Sky-opening Sect, responsible for organizing, analyzing, calculating, deducing, and reporting. How about it... no problem, right?"

"Ah!" Hearing Xin Yun's words, although Zixia had anticipated it, she did not expect that with her current identity, status, strength, and ability, she could assume such an important position!

Though she was from a minor family, a small sparrow still has all its vital organs. Any family would certainly have its Dark Division.

Dark Division is just a specific term. It could also be called the intelligence department. It's a division that any power must possess. If a power group is compared to a healthy person, then the intelligence department is comparable to the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose of that person, gathering, organizing, and analyzing all intelligence on the power group's behalf.

Without a Dark Division, a power group would be like someone deaf and blind, having lost all sense, unable to survive—such a force cannot exist.

From this perspective, even a fool could understand the importance of the Dark Division. Such a department could never be entrusted to a useless individual; ability is paramount, and the role must be filled by someone trustworthy.

Therefore, while Zixia had predicted she would be assigned to a department, being appointed as the head was beyond her expectations. It was something she had never considered. However, after thinking it over, Zixia quickly understood and was thoroughly impressed, with only two words in her heart—Greatness!

Clearly, Xin Yun didn't value capability as much as talent. Capability can be developed, but talent is inherent. You either have it or you don't. No amount of training will help a dwarf excel in sprinting. That is something no one can change.

Zixia was not modest about her calculating abilities, but to someone proficient in calculations, modesty was meaningless. You either have it or you don't; needless self-deprecation or aggrandizement is foolish.

Not only among her peers but also over many years of life, Zixia had always considered herself unbeatable in calculations. It wasn't pride, nor was it immodesty—simply that, so far, no one had shaken her confidence in calculation.

Recognizing her strengths, Zixia had plans for her future. She understood that what she could do well and was genuinely interested in was the work of the Dark Division. However, she did not expect that Xin Yun would see through her abilities in an instant and boldly place her in such a key position.

Zixia did not have the confidence to be the best in this position for the time being, but as long as she was given time, nothing was a problem. She would undoubtedly do as well as, if not better than anyone else.

Zixia understood Xin Yun's thinking after just a bit of calculation and deduction. Clearly... Xin Yun valued talent above all and aimed to cultivate the foundation of a team, to foster the harmony and coordination of the group. Only a team brought up by oneself could be the most united, harmonious, and understanding. Having capabilities without being able to blend into the team and unite with others is a serious drawback, no matter how capable one is. It was precisely this understanding that made Zixia regard Xin Yun as 'great'.
