The patrons in the surroundings were utterly stunned, staring blankly at the scene before them. There was a moment of silence before the room erupted into a flurry of shocked voices?
“Is that woman crazy? She actually dared to lay hands on a wealthy young lady from a quasi–secondary city?”
“She doesn’t know her place. She’s going to die for sure!”
“Isn’t it good to stay alive? Why must she court death? People like us, from a tertiary city, what right do we have to provoke someone from a high–ranking city?”
Though the seductive woman was kicked away by Raven, she was not as badly injured as her bodyguards. She clearly had some foundation.
She struggled to her feet, face distorted in fury, pointed at Raven, and roared, “You bitch! How dare you hit me? Do you even know who I am? I’m the heiress of the Zackery family from a quasi–secondary city. Offending me means you will die!”
“A quasi–secondary city?” Raven said, looking at her calmly, her tone indifferent. “So what?”
“You!” Jenny Zackery had thought that once she revealed her identity, Raven would panic and drop to her knees in fear. She did not expect Raven to be so disrespectful.
“You stupid wench! You have no idea who you’re dealing with,” Jenny sneered and said.
Not long ago, she had secured a spot in a selection event. The only reason she had come to a lower–ranking place like Frihamen City was that she had heard the long–missing Lady Valor of Cloudshadow Sect had resurfaced. She had come to Frihamen City specifically to look for Lady Valor to pass on her martial teachings.
Actually, Jenny did not believe anyone from a tertiary city was qualified to teach her. However, years ago, Lady Valor had saved her grandfather’s life when he had fallen gravely ill. Her grandfather had insisted that she make this trip.
Before he left, he held her hands and advised her earnestly, “Don’t underestimate Lady Valor of Cloudshadow Sect. She may appear to be just an insignificant figure from a tertiary city, but her true strength and status are far more extraordinary than she seems.
“If you can build a good relationship with her and she agrees to take you in, even a few small pointers from her could make you stand out in the selection
event.
“Bear in mind. Lady Valor of Cloudshadow Sect is not what she appears to be. You mustn’t offend her.”
Due to her grandfather’s advice, Jenny had suppressed her pride and made a trip here, although she looked down
on
people from lower–ranking cities.
Though she looked down on people from lower–ranking cities, Lady Valor had her grandfather’s approval and gratitude. Therefore, she did not treat her quite the same way she treated other locals.
If Lady Valor truly had the skills her grandfather claimed, she might be able to help her defeat other competitors from all over Forreb. S successfully become one of the six coveted trusted aides to the future heir.
would then
Out of dozens of elite candidates across the nation, only six candidates would be chosen. To succeed, she knew she needed a master with both strength and talent.
“You bumpkin who’s never seen the world! I’m the eldest daughter of the Zackery family from a quasi–secondary city in Forreb. I’m now qualified for the selection event, and soon, I’ll become a trusted aide to the future heir, the second–in–command.”
