An hour later, Yuki came back and fell into Nana’s arms. She had all her life drained out of her. Nana stroked the top of her head and asked. “What did Master say?”

    “She said that I am not allowed to torture people in public anymore near my fellow disciples.” Yuki pursed her lips. She pushed her face between Nana’s two melons, and only then did she finally feel at ease. Silvia, who saw this, looked down at her chest and gritted her teeth. The damn dragon had bigger boobs! No fair! 

“Alright, everyone, gather around.” The sect master did not care about Yuki’s or Silvia’s issues. He had to get everyone moving. 

Yuki, who was in a sour mood, was pushed along by Nana, and they were taken to a large room that could fit a few thousand people. The Dragon Festival was held on what was considered holy grounds. It was part of the central continents domain. Each of the continents had such a place. 

Yuki looked at the large room and sighed. She was not paying attention to the outside since she was in a bad mood, but now that she was looking at things, this entire place was massive. But then again, it had to house thousands upon thousands of cultivators all at one time.

“Everyone will wait here. The first round is the elimination round. I hope you all can pass it. But if you get into the arena with someone from the Roaring Thunder Sect, either try to avoid them for the time being, defeat them, or just give up. Your lives are more important.” The sect master did not want his disciples to get hurt due to the old bastard’s wicked schemes.  “I will take my leave. As of now, Yuki is your team leader. If you have an issue, talk to her!” 

“Hmmm?” Yuki turned and looked at the sect master and pointed at herself. “Me!? Why me!?”

“So you stay out of trouble!” The sect master did not need her skinning people alive! He then looked at Nana and Silvia and said: “You two keep her from doing anything that will cause a scene!” 

    “Yes, sect master!” Both girls answered, but inside, they did not care. After all, Yuki could do as she pleased. They would follow her!

Elder Nishikawa held her head. She wondered if this old man was getting too old. He was becoming senile! Why would he give such a task to the two people in the entire sect that would let Yuki run wild!? Of course, she did not say anything. She would let him dig his own grave so he could lie in it himself.

“So…. Yeah…” Yuki looked at the other disciples, who all quickly looked at the ground. Yuki furrowed her brow and looked at Nana. “Am I Scary?”

“No, you are very cute.” Nana smiled and kissed Yuki’s blood stained face. She had not yet cleaned up! She was still soaked in blood!

“Yes, very cute!” Silvia also jumped in and gave Yuki a kiss. 

Yuki smiled and hugged both girl’s waists. She wondered if this was what it was like to be one of those harem protagonists in the novels she used to read in her past life. While Yuki was happy, many of the disciples from other sects were staring at Yuki with strange gazes. They did not understand why there was someone here covered in blood.

    “Who is that?” A young woman asked as she stared at Yuki. She could sense that Yuki was strong.

“That seems to be the team leader for the Heavenly Cloud Sect. I do not know why she is covered in blood. Maybe it’s a gimmick?” A young man replied.

“A gimmick? Why would someone cover themselves in blood as a gimmick!? That makes no sense. Especially not that girl. I do not know why, but my gut tells me she is dangerous.” The young woman replied. “If you meet her, I think it will be best not to face her.”

“You want us to just give up?” A young man asked in surprise. “Senior Sister, I do not think we need to worry about her. I think as long as we move quickly, no one can lose to her. She seems to only be in the first astral star realm.” 

“So what? Do you not know that there are many dragons hiding here? If this girl is here, then she must have the ability, and if she is the team leader, that means she was even more likely to be the strongest here.” The young woman replied. “Just do as I say. I was appointed team leader for the same reasons, right?” 

“Ye-Yes….” The young man realized his senior sister was right!

“We will start by watching first. If you pull her at the start, just give up. I will tell the sect master I said to.” They were from an intermediate sect called the Divine Tiger Sect. They were a specialty sect that specialized in unarmed combat. They were very close to having the same power as one of the bigger sects, but it would still take a few hundred years more.

“We will do as Senior Sister says.” The young man and the other disciples behind him all answered at the same time. They all had respect for this senior sister of theirs since she was someone who never used the sect resources and cultivated with only resources she made herself. Yet she still had an amazing cultivation speed even though she spent a lot of time refining pills from spirit plants she had gathered herself.

“Hmmm?” Yuki felt an intense gave on her. She turned and looked at the young woman who was staring at her. Unconsciously, she released a bit of blood lust that swept through the room and slammed into the girl, causing her entire face to pale and to step back a few steps.

“Just a casual glance, and she already made me feel as if a bucket of water was poured all over me.”
