At the ball, thare was a whole bunch of different people. Most of them were arrogant kids from very wealthy families and nobility. Few of them were true cultivators. They were talking about everything and nothing at the same time. Most were their powers like they ware champions of the tournament. Then the guys from the 4 great sects came. They looked around with disdain, they were judging their opponents. Then one of the guys from the White tiger sect looked at me. He was quite surprised since I had as high cultivation real as him, but that wasn't all in his gaze.

Yu-Ao Tian White Tiger sect Young Master POV:

When we entered the ballroom I almost laughed at that arrogant people, they thought they were powerful. It was too much of fun to look at them when they were showing off so much. Then I saw a girl in the corner of the ballroom. She had a few friend with her. They weren't the most powerful party but I think they were one of the most experienced. I could almost feel how they were feeling when they saw these idiots, but they were still careful of how they looked to others. But that girl was different, she knows what true power is and she possed it, she was nearly as strong as I was. I looked at her carefully, then she turned toward me. Lightning struck me. How the fuck I didn't know this beauty. Her long black hair was reaching her slender waist. Her face was pale white and her eyes were that of a predator. Not a gold digger which I could find everywhere in this hall but that of a tigress. She was wearing a grey dress. She was too beautiful to be real. One of the shows of guys tried to approach her. She just looked at him, said something and he left in anger. I think she just made a great enemy. I will need to investigate her and made her my concubine, fuck I will make her my wife. She can be my only wife who needs this frogs from the royal place. I ordered one of the guys to do some research about her. I forbid him from even thinking about doing something wrong. I think he understood what that means. He looked at me in shock then went to work. One hour later he came back with a report. She was called Xiao-Wen Li, such a cute name. When she was 12 she was kidnapped by the pirates. Her father at the time was training soldiers in the near mountains, but it was not him who saved her. It was a giant monster, its level is unknown but from his size and prowess, it should be level 9. She earned his favor by not running away from him, thanks to that he gifted her with his scale from his chest. From the chest? That would make him extremely vulnerable. She then made that scale into a shield of extream defense. Her favorite quote is" Coward can live longer, but only the brave can live forever." It is decided, I am going for her. At that moment prince team showed up. We greeted them and I just walked away to my Tigress.

Xiao-Wen Li POV:

When the prince finally showed himself I was quite amazed. He was much stronger than anyone here. Power is not everything, one needs the courage to use it. Then one of the guys from White Tiger sect approached me.

-Welcome my lady, my name is Yu-Ao Tian. I am a young master of the White Tiger Seckt.

-Welcome young master my name is Xiao-Wen Li. How my this lowly person help you?

-Oh, do not be so shy.-His eyes were different. He is dangerous.-I could feel your power when I entered this hall. It gave me this tingling sensation, just like when I was facing a danger. You are strong.

Interesting, he is different from the last one. He just thought of me as a stupid girl.- Young master, you are praising me too much. I may be strong but I will not be able to even reach a shadow of yours.

-Ha, ha. I like you, I can see now. You know what a true power is right. Power that you can only dream, right?-I nodded.-I know this feeling too, but let's change the topic. Tell me what do you think about this people?

Was there a trick to that question? Who knows.- Some of them are just fools who do not know the world, but there are some interesting idividuals.- I do not why, but we just started talking. It was fun to the time when others approached us. It will be an interseting conversation. They were 2 girls and 3 guys and they were arrogant I think, too arrogant.
