Are you the one from the rumors?

A young man accompanied by a group of young cultivators entered Cromer City. When the young man saw the city gates he spoke to the one beside him. "Is this the place? Is this where the supposed strongest of the younger generation is located?" The person beside the young man nodded his head. The young man sneered when he saw the response, "Who can call themselves the strongest aside from the second prince?"

...

While the group of young cultivators were heading toward the City Lord's manor, Reki was finally done with her breakthrough. She was now at the third level of the Foundation Establishment realm, she had a cultivation breakthrough of one whole realm in a matter of days, which made her feel a variety of emotions, happiness, shock, relief. Before meeting Ragna she was already a genius of her clan, who produces a dozen of outstanding geniuses every generation. She cultivated to the fifth level of the Spirit Building realm before she was fifteen. Her older brother was even more of a genius who was at the fourth level of the Transcending Mortality realm at the tender age of sixteen. She thought, that was what a true genius should be like, but then she met Ragna. The eighteen year old boy called Ragna was a monster...

The first time she saw him, was when she was at her lowest. He not like a knight in shining armor, but like a bloody grim reaper, saved her from her situation by killing those pigs who blackmailed her.

The next thing he did shocked her, he took the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword sect's full power attack without any damage. When she saw this, and seen how the elders of the sect feared him, she knew that following him might give her the push she needs to get stronger faster, so that she could finally return to her clan.

When she remembered her clan, and the bitch that clung to her big brother, Reki's anger boiled but only for a moment. Thanks to her understanding of tai chi, Reki was much better at controlling her state of mind, she was now closer to being able to control her Yin and Yang Qi.

This was also thanks to Ragna, who gave her a book about the wonders of tai chi. Reki thought she understood how strong Ragna was, but when she saw him utterly destroy the Lian Clan, she understood that she didn't know the half of it.

The Lian Clan was a weak Clan compared to her own clan but to be annihilated by a single person, only the Great Elders of her clan could have done a similar feat.

She was a bit scared of Ragna, who killed anyone who messes with him. Reki was also wary of Elise, she might be younger and act like a child, but she noticed that their was something off about her. Every now and then her cheery expression would turn serious and one could feel a deep intense killing aura was hidden in the cute little body of hers.

Reki knew in this group she was the least weird... Well compared to a killing monster, and a cunning little devil, a girl from a big clan transforming into a boy wasn't that much weird... That's what Reki thought to herself.

While Reki was in the middle of her convincing herself that she was not the weird one, she heard people entering the restaurant.

"This restaurant is pretty good looking inside, but not as much as those restaurants back in the capital."

"Are we sure he's a fighter, isn't he just a chef?"

When Reki heard the group talking inside the restaurant, she spoke as politely as she could, right now she was in her guy form so she needed to act the part.

"Sorry the restaurant is close for today." The group of young cultivators look at Reki, at first they were stunned by her beauty but then they noticed some details that identified Reki as a boy.

Reki scanned the group using her spirit sense, and determined that this group of youngsters were cultivators, and all of them seem to be worthy to be called geniuses. Most of them had the cultivation of the peak of the Spirit Building realm. The strongest of them was a young man who was looking at her in disdain, he was a handsome young man who had looks that could kill many a girl. This young man was at the second level of the Foundation Establishment realm.

The young man was assessing Reki, and then snorted.

"Is this it? Are you the one in those rumors? You look like a sissy, how can you be a match for his highness?"

Reki didn't understand what those rumors are, but it seems like this group was here to make trouble for her.

"I don't know what you are talking about, but like I said the restaurant is closed, please leave." Reki then pointed at the door.

The young man sneered at her, "As arrogant as the rumors say... I am a vassal of his highness the second prince Gunther Archeon, show some respect."

Reki looked at the arrogant supposed vassal of the second prince, and sighed. Why was she the only one here today... Why did Elise need to go out today, even Ragna has been away for days saying he was going to train... Reki was lamenting at her current situation, and started to think of a way on how to solve the eminent problem that was coming.
