Wang Ping didn't ask Zuo Xuan if she was confident about advancing to the Second Realm. That question was like asking a man his monthly salary in modern society.
"Since you're interested in the mission, take my written order immediately and issue a recruitment notice in the name of the Daoist Scripture Hall. I need at least twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators and five hundred Qi Cultivators."
