Zhi Ruo made herself comfortable on her chair, her eyes over looked at the whole arena below bypassing the hologram boards that was floating with the announcer's face plastered on it. She watched as the contestants take their places in the respective arena's awaiting their opponents from the opposite podium.
The younger girl took this chance to look at the opposite podium where it was only visible if Zhi Ruo squinted her eyes narrow enough. If given the chance, she would have used this moment to trash talk the other party. Who knows maybe they will get annoyed enough and quit the tournament all together.Wishful thinking, wishful thinking, Zhi Ruo shook her head at this. But the fact that she wanted to trash talk the other party was still floating on the front of her head. After all, in tournaments, isn't it normal to trash talk the other party."Hey," Zhi Ruo suddenly muttered to the sides, catching Huo Feng and Yu Zhúlín'sRelated Chapters

The contestants that was with Zhi Ruo on the podium died a little when they saw that the young miss was picking a fight out of nowhere. This was especially so with Yu Zhúlín, after all this person was their newly appointed young miss. Their heart cracked a little upon seeing that Zhi Ruo was not stopping anytime soon."What are you doing?!" Huo Feng could not help but mutter, he stood up, wanting to urge Zhi Ruo back down from the railings that she was standing on. But the eyes that zeroed towards his direction from the audience made him broke out in a cold sweat."What's the matter?" Zhi Ruo asked innocently, her tone was leveled as if she did not just do something outrageous. "Why the pale face?" She asked some more, as if putting more gas to the fire to amuse herself. "Young miss, I can't breathe." Yu Zhúlín gasped from the sides. He revealed a tight and helpless smile. "Would you mind?" He motioned at the restraints that
Reborn in another world [F is for Zhi Ruo being asked to stop]
The banter between the two podiums halted after Zhi Ruo managed to pull 6 arms middle finger rebuttal towards the feiry response of the other podium. The staff came to their podium running and puffing in exhaustion like he ran laps around the whole arena before coming there. Judging from the panicked expression on the staff's face, he probably did.In the end, Zhi Ruo and the others were asked to halt whatever they were doing, because the crowd (audience) were getting harder to rein down because of the excitement their banter created. Zhi Ruo's response was to blink slowly, and told the staff that she didn't care; her words were exactly 'The fuck would I care about that?'. Of course the two senior brothers beside her weren't going to let Zhi Ruo say that on the staff's face, and was quick to agree with the staff after pulling Zhi Ruo aside because they could not clamp their hands over the young miss's face because of her mask.

Silently, the men on the podium agreed with Zhi Ruo's words, not that they'd say on her face directly though. Who knows, Zhi Ruo was an impulsive one, and she is crafty too. It was hard not to believe that Zhi Ruo would not use your words against you in a verbal spat.The masked man was fighting his opponent, it was a bulky man. One that you would see on the streets and would instantly tell that the man works out. And judging from how the man flexed his pectorial muscles in a way that Zhi Ruo could tell was an unconscious doing. The man was undoubtedly proud of the muscles that he aquired.Zhi Ruo scratched her head silently, looking on the fight that was going in front of her. Oddly enough, the masked man's opponent looked oddly similar with her previous opponent. Ever since she entered the tournament, she has been seeing real bulky men around. And she truly hoped that bulky men that looked like hulk wasn't the new trend that was running around

"Coincidence right?" Huo Feng asked, chewing his food. He inclined his head towards the masked man who was putting away the gun as the practitioner approached him. Outside their barrier, everyone could hear the announcer's excited voice, blabbering about the masked man's Win.The three could not help but look at the masked man's opponent on the ground, in the background the practitioner was announcing the masked man as the winner in his battle. Zhi Ruo of course knew what Huo Feng was talking about, he was asking that it was probably a coincidence that the fight tye masked man had was eeriely similar to Zhi Ruo's fight.Except, of course, the difference in ability. But how the fight progressed was undoubtedly similar. The first half of the fight was spent exchanging blows, then, the masked man was making his opponent run while he chased after the guy, then his opponent tripped, and of course, he killed his opponent singlehandedly.

Alberu proved to be a hard opponent, he managed to convince Huo Feng (please read: forced Huo Feng ) to change seat. The masked man took his seat triumphant of his victory. No longer caring if Alberu would fight him to take his seat, Yu Zhúlín managed to relax unto his chair."So," The guy dragged, in Zhi Ruo's eyes, Alberu's mask was a sore eye. Now that she knew of his identity (at least his name) she really didn't think that him wearing a mask was something coincidental. Though those were just her selfish thoughts. Zhi Ruo's body snapped at Alberu's direction.Alberu's lips twitched under his mask upon seeing Zhi Ruo's abrupt actions. He was given quite a scare for a second. But he played the situation to his favor, after seeing that Zhi Ruo was finally putting her attention to him. He opened his arms wide as if saying to look at his body. Which one can add, was covered in shallow wounds. His actions managed to tell Zhi Ru

There's another distinctive thing about the Ye clan, and that was it's members, the deciples and alike. More specifically those who were honored and went through the ritual to get the name 'Ye' as part of their names. As it was known that the Ye clan was a small but fairly powerful family. The Ye clan only had the Patriarch as the head of the clan and only person in the main family that legitimately has the Ye bloodline flowing down his veins. So to counter this, deciples, elders and such, has to under go rituals to inherit a part of the bloodline. And then they were officially eligible to have the Ye surname.At least that was what Alberu heard. But there was truly unique about the Ye clan. And that was because of what technique they practice. Unlike other clan's that had their own distinctive technique, that, well— 'that actually made them well known'. The Ye clan has no such distinctive thing. Rather, each of the Ye clan

"You and y'all's dry ass humor you got going on." Zhi Ruo instantly responded after seeing Yu Zhúlín crack a smile. There's a few things that can make Zhi Ruo laugh, and two of them are 'stupid people' doing stupid shit. And dark humor. There's barely anything that Zhi Ruo could get to laugh at.And one of those aren't certainly Alberu's weird ass jokes that Yu Zhúlín seemed to enjoy. Then again, the two were practically friends now after spending the duration of the entire tournament near eachother. Well, it was mostly Alberu sticking close to Yu Zhúlín like a sticky glue. And one could guess that Alberu's hard work finally paid off, because it seemed like the green haired man was finally easing at the masked man's presence. Anything closer though Zhi Ruo might as well call it gay, not that she'd judge of course, but she'd certainly enjoy teasing whoever makes an reaction though.'But what if these dolts are Bi??' Zhi Ruo's thoughts suddenly made an abrupt turn. 'Aint people back th

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

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.

[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.

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.

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'.

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.

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.
