It was the next day and Layla had gotten out of bed early to look for a sect she knew, she could get into one she was after all a 16 year old 7th layer body tempering stage. She would be considered a top talent.

Layla:*I best make some breakfast before I leave don't want Zeke to starve*.So she made some porridge and set out she decided to get a new bow for Zeke instead of that wooden peace of c.r.a.p. So when he turns ten he had a decent bow and she needed a new spear her other one was, getting worn out preferably a mid tier mortal rank one.

As she was travelling through the forest to the gate of the city she saw a boy who looked to be no more than 17-18 'p.i.s.sing' on a dead level 4 with a look of ectasy in his face.

Layla:*What type of weirdo have I ran into now*"Hey shrimpy could you take your business else where"

Stranger:"Who are you calling shrimpy you flat chested b****,my name is Michael remember it".

Layla:"Michael, with that little thing you have hanging out, there I think shrimpy is an appropriate name"

Michael: 'zips up up pants' "I warned you stupid b**** i'm a 5th level body tempering stage and I think I'm a little hungry". He licks his lips and draws his sword'

Layla: "5th stage that's pretty impressive too bad you met me" Layla draws her spear from her back and spins it skillfully "I was looking for a decent punching bag but you'll have to do"

Michael:"f*** you" he rushes at her with immense speed then strikes at her face "take this"

Layla easily blocks the strike with precise movements then kicks him in the chest. He goes flying hitting a tree with a loud 'Crunch' sound he had cracked a few ribs.

Michael:"aaaahhh."

Layla rushes at him and thrust her spear at his neck then stopping there was a fine line of blood dropping down his neck.

Michael:"please don't kill me I didn't mean to offend you I was just mad pleaase".

Layla:"Shut Up! if I wasn't strong would I not be at your 'mercy' right now. I should kill you right now but I won't I don't kill unless I have to but I will be taking all your belongings and 'swish' one of your arms "

Michael:"Aaaahhhhh"

She searched him as he screams in agony she found 3 silvers, a bottle of body tempering pills and a 'Battle Art' called 'One strike to kill'.

Layla: "So this is the Art used against me I should get a decent amount of silvers with this". After she collected everything and his low tier mortal ranked sword she continues on her trip reaching the gates in 10 minutes. The guards here are all peak Qi Condensation but they look at her with a smile and let her in.

She smiles back and keeps walking she is pretty well known since she used to come here with her mom when she was younger. The first thing she did was go to a trader and traded the low tier mortal ranked sword for 10 silvers and her old spear for 12. Added with the 20 she brought with her and the 3 she took from Shrimpy she now had 45 silvers. She then went to a blacksmith and bought a low tiered mortal rank now for 7 silver and a mid tier spear for 20. With that out of the way now she had to look for a sect to join and she already had one in mind.

Layla:"The Blackflame Sect" she walked to the sect gates where a old man sat at a table with a line infront of him. He looked annoyed "ALL YOU G.o.d d.a.m.n WEAKLINGS a whole bunch of trash 3rd and 4th level body tempering f**** think you can join my sect what happened to the talent I saw a thousand years ago. You're all in your late 20's get out of my sight".The crowd was stunned then dispersed slowly after everyone left Layla walked up.

Layla: "h.e.l.lo elder I would like to join your sect"

Elder: "A young one finally what's your cultivation girl"

Layla:"7th level body tempering stage"

Elder:"did you just say 7th level OH MY G.o.d my luck has finally worked in my favor a genius is in my sights. How old are you girl?"

Layla:"16"

Elder:"Finally normally you would be put in the upper elcheons of the outer disciples but with your potential it would be a waste. How about being my personal disciple instead" The elder smiled brightly at Layla

Layla:"What!? personal disciple never expected that I didn't think my cultivation was that great. Sure I'll be your personal disciple but I have some conditions"

Elder:"Cheeky one aren't yeah state them, then if they are within my capabilities I will grant them"

Layla "Okay I want the freedom to go back and forth between the sect and my village I have a little brother to take care of. Also when my brother reaches the appropriate age and shows enough talent he will also be your disciple". The elder steers at her then nods his head .

Elder:"Okay you can travel freely but if I need you For something important you must be there and no slacking, Cultivation is not easy. Just talent alone won't get you anywhere and about your brother if he is half as good as you he will be put in the upper elcheons of the outer disciples. But it will be up to him to find a master in the sect on his own."

Layla: *It's a fair deal and having a master will provide protection and good resources* "This Disciple greets master".

Elder:"Good good, now go on back home I want you here at dawn tomorrow.You'll be a peak Qi Condensation in 5 years Mark my words"

Layla. "Goodbye" She left, she was very excited to have a master on her way home she bought 4 bottles of body tempering pills and went home.
