The two sisters softly responded and stood up with respectful manners, positioning themselves to the side.
Zhang Yan did not immediately speak, instead he observed the two sisters closely for a moment. Compared to six months ago, the temperament of these two disciples had undergone notable changes.
Wang Caiwei held herself with an air of quiet dignity, more refined and composed than she had been a year earlier. Wang Caiting, in contrast, had transformed her once lively and active demeanor into a poised and orderly manner. Though her bright and mischievous eyes still sparkled with their characteristic vibrancy, she exercised strict adherence to decorum, no longer daring to cross any boundaries.
