I recommend you to read "The Spiritual Emperor is Queen". Although the female protagonist of this fantasy novel, Ling Jing, was born in a clan, she was locked up in the clan school since she was young and suffered from bullying. She was an independent, strong, kind, brave, and resourceful girl. She did not belong to any power and fought for herself. In the novel, in order to protect her clansmen and family, she did not care about the cost and fought with the Sword Emperor to reach the peak of strength. In the end, she became a Spiritual Emperor. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
