anwhile, the rest of the disciples were all stunned by the announcent before they went into an uproar.
"We are going to be taught unard combat by that beauty?! I don't know whether I should be happy or upset! But since Elder Kendra vouched for her, she must have at least so skill. I guess we will just have to find out next week to see for ourselves." This is the thought that crossed a lot of disciple's minds, but so of them still didn't know what to think of the situation. They were thinking about what the Elder said, that it's not uncommon for Battle Maiden Disciples to get taken advantage of and abused. So of them knew firsthand what this was like and others knew people who experienced this. They were the ones thinking that this might be a good opportunity for them to learn.
While the other disciples were talking about the advantages and disadvantages of such training, Mira was following Elder Kendra with a frown on her face. The Elder sensed Mira and turned around only to see a very unhappy Mira.
"If you are going to plan stuff without my knowledge then you can forget about helping. I don't mind having a match with an Elder to prove to the other disciples that I'm not a fake, but I don't like being dragged around by the nose. I will not repeat myself again." Mira said coldly with a deep frown on her face.
"You do realize I'm an Elder of the Sect. I could have you punished for saying such words to ." The Elder tried to tease Mira, but this only made Mira's frown turn into a scowl. She knew that she should've talked to Mira about this before the announcent, but it just never crossed her mind.
"I don't give a fuck who you are. You could be a King or a God for all I care, it doesn't change the fact that I will not be treated like so tool for you to use. As for how you will repay for your wrongdoings, I think allowing Dominique in one of the training grounds should suffice." Mira said staring into the Elder's eyes like she was trying to dig a hole through her head. The Elder subconsciously gulped. Even though she is many tis stronger than Mira, but Mira's presence is much larger. Like she's willing to die for such a trivial thing. The Elder just sighed in resignation since it seems that having any sort of control over Mira is impossible.
"Very well. It was my fault, to begin with as I should've discussed this with you beforehand. But do rember that I'm an Elder of the Battle Maiden Sect. You cannot simply treat the sa as so common trash. I may start to lose my patience." The Elder said with a grave face as she tried to warn Mira, but Mira just shrugged.
"I will treat you how I treat everyone. If you don't like it then you shouldn't have accepted into the Sect. Your warnings or threats will not prevent this from happening. Anyways, onto a different subject. I also wanted to ask you about getting access to the Cultivation Cave and the information that I asked for. I'd like to start cultivating in the cave as soon as possible and I'd like to know when I'll be receiving the information." Mira countered back and changed the subject. Elder Kendra already had her answers prepared beforehand it seems because she didn't need to think about it.
"I already have the information you asked for prepared and I can give it to you now. I can also give you the token to enter the Cultivation Cave right now as well, but once you accept these you can't go back on your word and you will have to teach and spar with our disciples. Also, we only allow Disciples to enter the cultivation cave for 8 hours per day." The Elder warned Mira, but she just nodded her head.
"I already accepted the offer, so I will of course at least do what I said I was going to do." Mira nodded her head in understanding and Elder Kendra took out so scrolls, books, and various other things regarding ancient magical beasts and anything they had on winged wolves. She also took out a small round token that had the symbol of a cave on it. Mira took these things and stored them in her space ring and the Elder led Mira to where the cultivation cave is located.
It took them around 10 minutes to go towards an underground section of the Sect. An Elder was standing guard at the entrance of this underground section. She imdiately bowed towards Elder Kendra and then seed to ask with her eyes who this person next to her is.
"Good morning, Elder Sue. Sorry to interrupt, but I've brought a Disciple here to show her where the Cultivation Caves are. She's going to be doing the Sect a huge favor so we are giving her daily access to a Cultivation Cave. I've already given Mira here a token so there is no need to worry about that." Elder Kendra said to the Elder that seed to be standing guard here. Elder Sue seed a bit surprised to hear that a disciple will be getting daily access here, but decided to not ask questions since it didn't concern her.
Mira took out her token and showed Elder Sue then continued walking inside only to find several small caves near each other. Each cave is only big enough for one person to sit inside and there seed to be at least 10 of these caves. Mira walked into the nearest cave and could imdiately feel the imnse amount of Qi. Mira could imdiately tell that the Qi in this cave is around 5 tis denser than it is in her room, which is already 3 tis denser than it is elsewhere. Mira then sat down to start cultivating. She'd make use of these 8 hours to the fullest!

Elder Kendra walked away when she noticed Mira chose a cave and began cultivating. She walked over to what seed to be a large building. The building itself is nothing special. It was actually very plain and almost rundown-looking. Elder Kendra entered the building and walked into a large room that had a round table in the middle of it. As soon as she walked in the room, 8 other Elders greeted her as well as the Sect Master.
"How'd the announcent go? Did they take it well?" The Sect Master was actually the first to speak up. Elder Kendra nodded with a smile.
"I think the disciples handled it better than expected. Though most of them were still srized by Mira's beauty that they could barely listen to what I had to say." Elder Kendra said and this caused the Sect Master to be a little surprised.
"Is she really that beautiful? I didn't notice anyone like that during the tournant or when I greeted the new disciples." The Sect Master said.
"Pardon , Sect Master but I think that you may have just overlooked her. I'd even go so far as to say that she might be one of the most beautiful if not the most beautiful woman in the entire cultivation world. There is simply no comparison between her and other people." Elder Kendra said with a slight bow. This caused the Sect Master's eyebrows to arch as she seed very interested.
"Oh? Even you give her such high praise? I guess I will have to greet her personally so ti. Speaking of Mira. Is she okay with going a few rounds with one of our Elders next week?" The Sect Master said and Elder Kendra just scratched the back of her head awkwardly.
"Well, I guess you could say that. Though she wasn't happy that I didn't tell her before I announced it." Elder Kendra said, a little embarrassed.
"Really? What did she say?" The Sect Master was getting more and more interested in Mira now.
"Ahem. She said that if we are going to make decisions for her without her knowledge then we can forget about having her help. But she also said she didn't mind having a match with an Elder to prove herself to the other disciples." Elder Kendra said while avoiding eye contact. The Sect Master squinted her eyes as she felt like she was leaving sothing out.
"What else?"
"Well, um, she said and I quote, 'I don't give a fuck who you are. You could be a King or a God for all I care, it doesn't change the fact that I will not be treated like so tool for you to use.'. Then took compensation for herself for my wrongdoings by allowing the child she's taking care of into one of the Training Grounds to try and withstand the pressure." Elder Kendra and this stunned all of the Elders. They have never been treated in such a way before especially by soone who is just a new Disciple. But after a few seconds, the Sect Master burst out into laughter along with one of the more battle-crazy Elder.
"HAHAHA! What an interesting young lady! An incredibly rare find! Thank you for sharing this with Elder Kendra. It seems that I must et Mira. I want to see what she's like with my own two eyes!" The Sect Master kept laughing.
"Hahaha! I can't wait to fight with her next week! I've been dying to spar with her ever since I saw her! Things are about to get more interesting around here. Hahaha!" Another Elder started laughing and this Elder seed to be the person who would be sparring with Mira next week. But the other Elders weren't so amused by this.
"Sect Master, I believe that we shouldn't allow her to keep up with this sort of behavior! What if the other disciples lose respect for us? I bet those are just the ramblings of a child who doesn't know her place in the world yet! We need to correct this sort of behavior imdiately!" One of the Elders said and also seed to get support from so of the other Elders as well. But this caused the Sect Master to turn serious as the atmosphere in the room soon beca suffocating.
"I believe that would be a very bad idea. These are most likely not the ramblings of a child and we may very well have to kill her if you want to prevent her from acting like this. I'm betting that this is just how she treats everyone, no matter their status or strength. One might think she's admirable for having such a mindset, while others might think it's naive since she could die due to how she acts. I personally think it's admirable. She lives by her own code and there is nothing in this world that can prevent her from doing this." The Sect Master said seriously which shocked everyone here. They'd have to kill a young girl just to get her to stop treating people with such an attitude?
"Why do you think that, Sect Master?" One of the Elders spoke up nervously.
"Do you rember what happened at the end of the tournant? A killing intent so thick that it spread throughout the whole city and even started to suffocate so of you." The Sect Master paused as the Elders all nodded their heads.
"From the information that Ellie and Diana have shared about Mira, they said that her killing intent was extrely thick. Like she's killed tens of thousands of people. I find it hard to believe that the killing intent from the tournant and Mira have nothing in common. Though just based on what Diana and Ellie said should be proof enough that Mira doesn't joke around. At least that's what I believe. I will have to et her in person to try and determine her true intentions." The Sect Master explained and they all sucked in a cold breath.
"Do you think she might be a spy, Sect Master?" One Elder spoke up.
"It's highly unlikely, but not impossible. I don't know what she'd do for-profit and maybe she'd stoop to espionage, but if she's the type of person I think she is then she would be the one to send spies. Not the one being the spy. But I will have a conversation with her later. Alright, enough about Mira! Let's move onto our other discussions." The Sect Master said and they moved onto the other things they gathered there for.
