Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

City Lord Manor, Day of the martial gathering

Everyone was there. The stage was set high, and the seating could accommodate thousands of people. Only those who were strong, or had a strong background, could actually sit here. The rest had to stand, watching from the back lines.

The contenders were not gathered yet. They were with their own parties, all looking towards the stage with a nervous glance, not know what to expect.

The city lord had the best view, looking out directly from his own balcony high up. But he did not arrive yet, so the martial gathering still had some time to commence.

This time though, I was not late. I came on time. There was no sudden or unexpected breakthrough or gestation period, and I did not want to push fate either. I sat down in the area designated for the Liu Family. The three families were set apart from each other, and I could understand why. Who would want the rivalries of the families to pop up now of all times?

I scanned the crowd with my mind eye. I was trying to look at the participants, to see who is at what stage. But my mind eye could not work at the distance at which the other clans were sitting. So I had to wait till we were on the stage to see how strong my opponent would be. That was disappointing.

With the mind eye, everything was not smooth. I could only see the levels and the cultivations of the people who were near my own. That meant that I could not see the level and the cultivation of my own father, even though I knew that he was in the Nascent Soul Realm. And his level was also not shown. In their place, question marks appeared.

I stood up. I needed to get a layout of my opponents, and sitting down clearly wouldn't help. I needed to go to where the others were sitting. I looked at my father, who was sitting calmly. But this was not the exterior that he had shown just a few hours ago.

I had brought up the fact that I was going away, so the marriage agreement could be annulled. Father was furious. He fought long and hard, but at the end, he just threw the marriage contract at me and told me that I could do whatever I wanted, and that the consequences would be my fault. I believe his exact words were, 'You are going to die alone, mark my words.'

Those were pretty harsh words, and I was sure that he was joking. Nevertheless, I had an excuse to go towards the Bai family now. I slowly walked towards there. I could see many second rate families as well, but their best candidates were at the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm. Not exactly a threat anymore.

I got to the Bai Family's space now, and I was immediately stopped by a face that I seemed to recognize. But I did not need to dig into my memories to know who it was.

"Lvl 10

Name - Bai Zhen

Cultivation - Foundation Establishment Stage - 2nd Layer"

The words popped up over him. He was stronger than me on paper.

"What the hell is trash like you doing here? I thought that the last time I met you, I told you to scram and never to appear in front of us again? It looks like the moment that you learnt how to cultivate, you grew a pair and now you are trying to go against me, eh?" he said, coldly.

"That is not my intention, senior brother. Not one bit. Actually, I have something to give to sister Bai Zhiqui. It was already agreed upon. She will know what I am talking about." I said, laughing sheepishly.

"Look at you! Shameless. Just to talk with her for a little more time, you are willing to go through any length. Spouting lies and daring to disobey me?! You deserve to be beaten. You are really asking for it." he said, his voice raised and his hands clenched into fists.

"Calm down, big brother. Why are you always so hyper active? Sometimes, you must be calm and understand the truth. I trust that you have been well in this short time since we last met, Brother Liu Feng?" a sweet and melodious voice startled me from behind. I recognized the voice. It was Bai Zhiqui.

I turned around to look at her face to face. But it seemed that she was approaching me as well, because when I turned around, her face was just an inch from mine. I could see through her translucent veil, that her cheeks were a little red from this sudden confrontation. And so were mine. But beyond that, I could see her face. And my god did my heart start pounding. How did god craft such a perfect woman and be so heartless to send her here?

Bai Zhiqui took a step back and looked at me.

"It has been some time indeed. I am here because of what you asked before." I said, trying my best not to think about what just happened a few moments ago.

"Thank you so much, brother Feng. This shall be something that I will always thank you for, and I shall be in your debt." Bai Zhiqui bowed slightly.

"There is no need to bow. This is just something that I needed to do as well. I cannot be so heartless as to weigh a genius like you and tie you down to this place." I said hastily as I took out a piece of paper from my spatial ring.

She stretched her jade like hands and took the paper from me. Her eyes glanced at the contents, and the paper disappeared, probably into her own spatial ring.

"This is indeed, the marriage contract. I shall show it to my master, and we will annul it by tearing it off. Maybe we can still be friends after this has passed. My master has high hopes for you. He said that a tiger's son will be a tiger, and a tiger will never be confined in a cage for long." she said as she walked past me towards the Bai Family area.
