Celaine returning to the Sect spread like wildfire through the Sect. There were quite a few disciples who remember her being pretty talented, but then one day she just left and they haven't seen her in 2 years.
The Elders were also pleased to see Celaine back as they had high hopes for her. They've been curious as to where she went, but Celaine was pushed to the back of their minds after Mira said that she sent her somewhere to get stronger. Now that she was back, and in the Foundation Realm no less, they were looking forward to seeing how much her strength has increased.
Celaine spent a while greeting the other disciples and answering some of their questions. They were all curious as to where she went, but Celaine refused to talk about it since this was something that Mira wanted to keep a secret.
Celaine was finally able to go back to her room after a few hours. She decided to get a good night's sleep before making it into the Top 15.
The next day, Celaine immediately went to the arena to start challenging disciples only to learn that there were so many people fighting in the arena that she needed to schedule her fight a day or two later.
She just sighed and scheduled a fight for 2 days out. She needed to win around 10 Battles to make it into the Top 15 since her position was pushed down quite a bit.
She decided to take part in the Battle Tower so she doesn't have to fight so many battles.
After leaving the arena, she went straight for the Battle Tower. Her experience was similar to Mira's and it didn't take her long to enter the Top 15 on the Battle Tower. This allowed her to get used to her strength as well.
She was quite surprised to see how strong she was and her new saber felt amazing! She was absolutely in love with it! So sharp, so fast, amazing!
On the day of her fight, she immediately destroyed her opponent in just a few moves then scheduled a fight for someone in the Top 15 right after that. Her display of strength shocked the other disciples and they all looked at her with eyes full of envy! We all know you got this strong because of Mira! How lucky! These were their thoughts. Celaine noticed the other disciples looking at her like this and was speechless. What's there to be lucky about?! Mira brings nothing but endless pain and suffering! Who cares if you get stronger! But regardless of her thoughts on Mira, she was somewhat thankful for the opportunity she gave her. Her skills had improved quite a bit over the last 2 years and she increased her cultivation by almost an entire realm in a little over 2 years because of her.
When Celaine had her battle against someone in the Top 15, there were quite a few people paying attention to her. The Elders had high expectations and the disciples wanted to see how strong they could've been if Mira sent them to her secret training place.
The battle was completely one-sided. Celaine was just too talented with the saber and now that her strength has caught up she was able to soar! The other disciples were shocked! It's been less than a week since Celaine returned and she easily entered the Top 15?! What sort of dog shit luck is this?! Why didn't Mira choose us?! We worked hard too!
There were quite a few disciples that were dispirited after seeing Celaine's display, but after thinking about it some more they renewed their determination. We'll show you, Mira! That you should've picked us instead of her!
After that day, Celaine got challenged every day but nobody could beat her. The more people that lost to Celaine, the more determined they got to try and beat her. Celaine really wanted to cry! She couldn't even walk out of her room without being challenged or looked at with eyes full of hate and envy! The way they looked at her was like she stole their husband from them! Celaine wanted to tell them that it wasn't her choice and Mira forced this onto her, but she knew it wouldn't make a difference. She could only accept the battles and get through this next month.
While she was having it rough with the other disciples, Mira also sparred with her every day as well. She could actually spar with Mira a lot longer now, but she'd still lose after a few minutes of intense sparring. Part of the reason she lost was due to Mira's strength, but most of it was because Mira was just more skilled than her. This coupled with fighting against a strange weapon like a scythe always led to her inevitable loss. Mira also had amazing battle sense and could read the opponent like a book. Celaine was just too green to be able to beat Mira.
This didn't stop Mira from fighting against Celaine. Every time they sparred, Mira could feel her skill with the scythe increase and she knew that investing in Celaine would be a good idea.
She really wanted to curse at Mira nonstop, but as soon as she caught a glimpse of her cold eyes that were full of a hidden malicious intent she'd freeze up.
The next month went by extremely quickly and it was finally time for them to head out and get ready for the Inter-Sect Tournament.
The Sect Master has gathered all of the disciples together so she can announce the Top 15 that will be participating in the Tournament.
"Thank you all for gathering here today! Today is a special day as I will be announcing the 15 people that will be participating in the Inter-Sect Tournament here in a few days. This is an incredibly important event not only for you but for the Sect as well. The better you do, the more slots we'll have when the Secret Realm opens. The Sect will also receive better resources the better you do, so we might be able to provide more to you, but we might also be forced to lower the number of resources that are allocated to you if you don't do well. But I have confidence in your abilities and hard work. I expect great things."
"Now onto the 15 people who will be participating in the Tournament. Alexa, Mira, Jade, Cleo, Maria, Anya, Diana, Ellie, Hera, Celaine, Nisha, Audra, Sia, Layla, and Anna. If you 15 will please step forward!" The Sect Master announced the Top 15 people and they all walked up next to her.
Alexa and Cleo were both looking at Mira, who was wearing a mask, curiously. They returned back to the Sect not too long ago and heard a lot of things about Mira. They sized Mira up and couldn't help but feel threatened by her presence. Even though they were both stronger than her by a significant margin, they felt the faint aura of death lingering around her. They've felt similar auras on their adventures from mercenaries or people who have fought in wars, but they all resembled little babies in front of Mira.
Mira felt the two of them staring at them and glanced at them. They both felt a chill up their spine and looked away.
"Please congratulate these 15 disciples as they will be representing you in the upcoming tournament!"
*WWOOOO*
"Go kick some ass! We're counting on you guys!"
"Show those other Sects how badass we can be!! The Battle Maiden Sect will reign supreme this year!"
"I'll be cheering for you, Mira! We're leaving the Sect in your hands!"
"Kick some ass out their Mira! We love you!"
"Kyaa! I can't wait to see Mira up there on stage!"
"You'll have to punish those naughty boys for us, Mira! We're counting on you!"
Mira's eyebrows started twitching when she listened to these perverts screaming her name. But by now she was already used to this crap.
The disciples standing next to the Sect Master all glanced at Mira as well. There were actually a decent amount of people in the Top 15 people that wouldn't have made it there if not for Mira or at the very least wouldn't be as strong as they are today. With a rock like Mira to anchor themselves to, they all felt much better about their chances in the tournament.
"Okay, that's enough. You 15 should take the next few hours to prepare before we head out to Lunar Fox City. As for the rest of you, you're welcome to come along and watch the tournament. Okay, we'll meet back here in a few hours!" The Sect Master finished announcing the Top 15 to everyone and everyone went back to prepare for their departure.
Mira and Maria went back to their rooms to make sure they have everything with them. They also wanted to take Rhydian, Vulcan, and Dominique with them since they didn't know when they'll be back.
"Really!? I get to go watch you fight in another tournament?! When do we leave?!" Dominique went crazy knowing she could watch Mira fight for real. She couldn't wait to watch Mira beat some people up.
"In a few hours. I don't know how long we'll be gone so gather your things." Mira said while Dominique nodded repeatedly and went to fetch her things.
Mira then took a look at Rhydian and noticed that she is now a Late-Stage Rank 4 beast.
'It seems she's been busy.' Mira thought to herself seeing how Rhydian was a bit bigger now. Mira wasn't sure how big Rhydian will get. She doesn't know if she'll only be the size of a normal wolf or an oversized wolf so she doesn't know how far away she is from being full-grown
She also noticed that Vulcan is a Low-Stage Rank 4 almost Mid-Stage. He's also grown quite a bit over the last few years. He should be half-grown now.
Looking at the two of them, she nodded in satisfaction. Rhydian can kill several stages above her own so as long as they don't run into a Rank 6 Beast or someone in the Core Formation Realm, she should be fine.
After a few hours, the 5 of them walked back to the place the Sect Master told them to meet at. There were quite a few people curious as to why Mira and Maria are bringing their beast companions and Dominique, but they just figured that they didn't want to leave them alone.
Soon, everyone gathered their things and met up where the Sect Master told them to. Then Sect Master Jane walked in front of everyone and made sure they were all here.
"Let's go!"
