"Immortal guardian?" Lin Yi said.
"You know what an immortal guardian is?" she asked.
"Yes," Lin Yi said.
"Most hunters in this expanse don't," she said. "The term is historic, mostly. Even the awakening bureau's official record on the Seven Star Immortal Conversion Halo is not so detailed." She studied him with the direct attention of someone deciding how to calibrate to a new piece of information. "Where did you come across it?"
"Heavenly Phoenix Academy," Lin Yi said. "Their archive."
She stared at him. Lin Yi watched the recalibration happening without her having decided to perform it.
"Heavenly Phoenix Academy," she said.
"Yes," Lin Yi said.
"You're a student," she said.
"Indeed."
She looked at him for a long moment. "A student," she said again. More slowly this time. "Currently present in the Allheaven Expanse. The minimum entry threshold for this event is level 100!"
"I know."
