"—fall!" There was shrill cry, as one of the members suddenly felt impatient. For the first time in three minutes someone on the green dragon card members had finally conjured up a technique that didn't involve bombing the arena with explosive.

"Uncanny terra rift!" In response someone shouted at the same time, the air exploded and a phantom of a rift appeared in the sky to block the Qi rocks that suddenly appeared and started to fall.

With no where to run, the conjurer of the phantom rift could only call it quits. He managed to escape to the edges of the Huā Tián platform, unfortunately he went near the masked man.

There was a eerie silence, as the conjurer of the phantom terra rift lost his balance on his last step. The odd silence continued when the masked man pushed the out balanced man almost lazily off the Huā Tiá

    The conversation came to a halt when the team that was fighting brought up the bombing tactic and succeeded. It seems like they had no intentions of passing the green dragon card team before them on terms of performance. Opting for the easiest and most likely, the fastest way to end the round.It was getting old at this rate, the winner took the cards, the reward for his win, and picked up the weapons the dead body left behind. No one had any qualms with the winner's actions, once a cultivator falls their things are for the winner's to take.That is of course he has promised the weapon to someone beforehand, or the fallen cultivator has a backing large enough for anyone to think twice about robbing his or her corpse.In this scenario, the cultivators died young, and most likely hadn't promised anyone his and her's weapon. And to be fair,

    Yu Zhúlín was like a ferocious beast in his own domain the moment that the wind picked up around him. And it was clear as day to the people around him that the wind he conjured up to look like a hurricane would not go anywhere anytime soon.The space in the platform was decreasing despite the platform being gigantic. The wind was everywhere and even the crowd that was watching from the sidelines could not help but distance themselves away from the platform.The closer the members of the 100 silver card team to Yu Zhúlín the more painful the winds are. Zhi Ruo's senior brother looked to be the eye of the storm, as the place where Yu Zhúlín was demonstrating the kata was where the win was peaceful.No matter how much the members of the 100 silver card team threw spells and technique towards Yu Zh&ua

    "Please look here, the next card will be pulled out." Ye Kohaku, despite the fact that everyone didn't exceed the 5 minute mark (which was a rather good thing) looked dispirited. He felt that the matches was too boring because everyone was avoiding the five minute mark, which left him and Ye Qing Qing unable to interfer with the battle.'Host the second half of the first phase they said.' there was a twitch on Kohaku's face, as he shuffled the deck on his hands. 'It will be fun they said.' his fingers aggressively flipped the cards on his hands, he could feel Ye Qing Qing's amused look being shot on his way.He finally pulled out the next card, if anyone was counting then they would've known that this would be the 187th one. Kohaku raised a random card to the eyes of the crowd, he didn't even bother on looking which card was on his hands.Ye Qing Qing merely glanced at the card on Kohaku's hands, and motioned to the crowd.Right when Kohaku pulled a card there was a pause on Zhi Ruo'

    The young miss although very neutral throughout the duration of the fight, started to move in a rather fearsome way. The others could not help but get out of her way the moment they saw the furious orbs underneath the mask.Zhi Ruo's eyes was almost shining underneath the moonlit sky, and everyone willingly made way for her. Fear crept up their hearts the moment the long sleeved guy was flung back with a light tap.With their ears still ringing, they watched as Zhi Ruo violently took the violet eyed girl by the mouth and slammed the back of her head on the concrete floor of the Huā Tián platform. The floor broke with a horrific bang, which made Zhi Ruo's ears ring more, and rendering her more angry.The violet eyed girl's smile fell the moment Zhi Ruo came at her with a flash, she could not even move even if she will her body to do

    The clan guy suddenly felt regretful of his actions, the moment Zhi Ruo turned around he could feel the hairs of his body standing up. There was a ringing on his ears that came from the very depths of his soul. Vaguely he felt that if he doesn't move he will die, if he does move, he will still die."Can't you be merciful of a fellow lady, sister mask?" The clan guy addressed Zhi Ruo looking at the sorry state of the violet eyed girl. He tried to lighten his mood, fearing the worst.Zhi Ruo merely glaced at the frothing violet eyed girl, and quietly harrumphed. She won't be able to use her little sonic spells anymore that's for sure. No more ears ringing, and Zhi Ruo was quite pleased with that. For a second she even considered ripping the violet eyed girl's tongue.But she felt like that it would be too violent, her image of a demure gran

    The sword guy was clearly hellbend on putting damage at the long sleeved guy, he did not expect that his actions would lead to land a Killing blow to his opponent. Not that he minded though, it meant a less opponent for him.But it seemed like Zhi Ruo had other plans, as she swiftly grabbed the long sleeved guy and pulling him out of harms way."Though I did say that someone would be killed today, it didn't mean that I would allow it to happen." Zhi Ruo clicked her tongue almost mockingly, at the sword guy who had a odd expression on his face.The crowd roared in excitement at the unexpected development, their voices amplified because of their cultivation levels as each of them were a warrior of their own rights. They could not fathom why Zhi Ruo would save a fellow contestant when she herself was vicious against the others.

    The bones of the sword guy creaked everytime he moved, his stamina was dwindling. His muscles contracted with each swing he took, only for it to be parried by Zhi Ruo's Bo staff. It might have been his hallucination, but he saw the Bo staff grow longer and and grow smaller when needed.The sword guy fought for control over his body, he could not overpower Zhi Ruo and Zhi Ruo could not overpower him.The guy let out a ferocious shout, his legs spread apart in stance there was determination burning from the corners of his eyes."Shirong swordplay!"

He could tell that people were in a trance, as Zhi Ruo received her card that floated towards her.People watched as she took the card from the air, as if it was hers to begin with.Even the sword man she pushed off the platform looked up to her in a daze, as if surprised that he lost with no major injuries. Rather he was more surprised that Zhi Ruo merely lost a few centimeters of her clothes rather than any visible wounds.It seemed like the only person that ticked Zhi Ruo off was the girl with the sonic sound technique. And she was the only person that left with injuries when Zhi Ruo touched her. Even the other four members were pushed by her. Heck she e

    A day later, and with sufficient rest. The lady took her time to look over her servants to find out what was missing or needed in her pavilion. Ravel mentioned in passing that the food in the pavilion was a bit lacking, the young lady noted this in the back of her head before she handed all her responsibilities to Ravel to handle. The butler, who was already used to this, didn't complain with Zhi Ruo's way of handling things and just calmly proceeded to make schedules. Through all that, Ravel had the time to dress Zhi Ruo up with the help of the other maid servants. Although the servants weren't used to the cosmetics products and skin care products that Zhi Ruo had around. They were quick to learn how to efficiently apply these products to Zhi Ruo's body. Ravel didn't let the maid servants stick around to help Zhi Ruo prep her face. The young lady prepped her own face by herself. In the afternoon, Zhi Ruo went out of her pavilion, and went straight to her grandfather's office where

    When Zhi Ruo ascended to her pavilion, she was welcomed by her immaculately attired maids, who combined made for a lovely sight. The girl nodded with satisfaction, her thoughts already praising Ravel's managerial skills. She could tell that Ravel had been careful in his training of the staff. because she failed to see a single hair out of place.His training of the household staff was evident in every corner; not a speck of dust dared to linger, and not a single servant’s uniform bore the faintest wrinkle. After they landed, at the forefront of the welcoming assembly stood her venerable grandfather, Ye Gu Shi, a figure of unshakable dignity, clad in robes that seemed to flow like rivers of ink and silver. Flanking him were her senior brothers, their postures firm as ancient pines, and her sole senior sister, Ye Qing Qing, whose serene presence commanded both grace and authority.He congratulated the people that managed to get far in the tournament. The ordeal was done in a solemn man

    [Thirty minutes later— landing time...] In the vast expanse stretching near the Sighted Valley, the aircraft descended smoothly, landing without much of a hitch. As the doors opened, Zhi Ruo stepped out with an air of quiet confidence, her movements purposeful and composed. Behind her, Ravel followed closely, his demeanor attentive as ever.The other contestants had already gathered in the designated drop-off area, their murmurs filling the space as they watched the new arrivals. Zhi Ruo took a steady step, her gaze sweeping over the (still) ufamiliar faces. The last time she had been here, she had been left unnoticed, easily dismissed, and barely given a second glance by the crowd. But today was different. This time, all eyes were on her, a subtle shift in their expressions was apparent.This was not the same indifferent reception she had received during her first arrival; this time, she was far from overlooked. There's this hushed silence that blanketed the whole place, Zhi Ruo wa

    Thirty minutes before their scheduled landing, a soft knock echoed through the quiet hallway as Ravel, the ever-dutiful butler, rapped his knuckles on Zhi Ruo’s door. He stood there, impeccably dressed as always, though his usual calm demeanor was tinged with something more urgent.The butler proceeded to inform that he got from the patriarch to Zhi Ruo. Ultimately, and very quickly, betraying the contract he had with his master's grandfather.Zhi Ruo who had just woken up after getting a 3 hour power nap, couldn't get a word in after she was bombarded with Ravel's information dump. She could only let her butler in wordlessly, and led him to the table where he continued to babble on.She, on the other hand, had other plans. After guiding Ravel to the table, Zhi Ruo didn’t bother sitting across from him. Instead, she walked right back to her bed, not even pretending to be interested in the deluge of information spilling from her butler. With a sigh, she plopped face-first onto the matt

    Ye Gu Shi sat up straight his eyes gazing down at Ravel's form. He felt awfully overwhelming, that the butler who was just acting could not help but break into genuine cold sweat. "Ravel, I will now ask you to use that strength to aid me for a bit." The patriarch's voice reached Ravel's ears, Ye Gu Shi was solemn as he asked, it was obvious that he put great importance to this, that much Ravel could tell.Ravel furrowed his brows, his gaze still lowered on the floor. "May I ask what this is about?" He ventured out carefully, Ravel could almost feel the worried frown on Ye Gu Shi's face even though he did not dare to raise his eyes at this moment.There was a deep sigh that reverberated in the room, Ye Gu Shi almost seemed tired and worried all at once. This made the butler more curious than he would ever care to admit. "I know you have hidden your strength for quite some time, I hoped that you would be willing to use that strength to protect my granddaughter." His request came out lik

    There was something deeply unsettling about the atmosphere in the room, an almost palpable tension that seemed to cloak the space and instill a sense of unease in anyone who crossed its threshold. However, it appears to be like the two men had not noticed each other's gazes as they were blatantly sizing each other up.There was a rather interesting look on Ravel's face as his face adorned a smile that even Zhi Ruo would find rather creepy. On the other hand, the Patriarch seemed entirely absorbed in his own thoughts, completely unaware of Ravel’s unnerving expression. His focus remained on the steaming cup of tea in his hand, his brow furrowing slightly as he took a slow, deliberate sip.There was nothing that Ravel could do but wait in silence with his impregnable smile.'Master has said that she has plans to deal with her grandfather when it comes 'with her secrets'. Though, I don't think she has taken into account how much the man has kept his eyes on her even if he was not in sig

    [Luck]

    Zhōngguó made a face in my direction, a clear attempt to provoke or elicit some sort of reaction. However, it didn't bother me in the slightest. If anything, it only made my amusement grow. I could feel a small smile tugging at the corner of my lips, but I chose not to indulge him. My attention gradually shifted away, and I soon ignored the weapon who was clearly trying to rile me up for his own entertainment. The soft hum that drifted from his direction served as a quiet backdrop, but I paid it no mind, busying myself with putting the petals away in their proper place."Why aren't you as excited as I thought you'd be?" His voice broke through the quiet, carrying a tone of curiosity. By now, he had already made himself comfortable, sprawled lazily across my bed like it was his own personal lounging spot. I could feel his eyes on me.With a quiet sigh, I swept my fringe away from my face, tucking the stray strands behind my ear. Slowly, I raised my head from the mask I had been inspect

    My back straightened instinctively, a subtle tremor running through my hands as I stood among the sea of petals. The air was thick with the fragrance of flowers, in its own way, it was almost eerie. Each delicate bloom seemed to pulse with life, amplifying the excitement I could barely contain. If Ravel was here to see my expression, he would have called me a lunatic despite his upbringing.Still, it would have been weird if I wasn't excited upon receiving such a huge landfall. The realization that I could wield a law without ever fully mastering it was nothing short of incredible. It wasn't just any law either—it was one that felt deeply familiar, intricately woven into my life through the teachings of my master. The humm in my consciousness made me realize the true potential of the petals around me.But the excitement soon faded, the initial rush of wonder slipping away as the petals around me vanished at my command. With just a single thought, they retreated, condensing into a su

    [The first law]

    Although Zhi Ruo isn't entirely sure how Ravel levels up or even how her butler continues to grow stronger, she is certain of one thing: Ravel has the ability to level up. It's a fact she doesn't fully understand but has come to accept nonetheless. Zhi Ruo's puckered up her lips unconsciously. Her thoughts shifted to the state her contracts were in.Zhi Ruo finally tore her gaze away from the sapling, reluctantly pulling back her heightened senses so that she was no longer acutely aware of the intricate state of her contracts. With her focus shifting, her eyes settled on a delicate flower resting quietly a short distance away, its presence unassuming yet somehow captivating. Her expression remained mostly unchanged, though a faint glimmer of curiosity surfaced in her eyes. Having finished evaluating the first prize, Zhi Ruo turned her attention to the second, the one she had chosen at random. Naturally, it was the flowerInside the glass box sat an unassuming flower, its petals perf
