My Master Is A Tsundere

"People?"

Rant Valo turned his head to where she was pointing at. There were three girls walking together.

"Hey, aren't you excited? Senior Brother Khan will be fighting on stage."

A girl from the group suddenly said with much excitement.

"Yes, yes! I can't wait for it next week."

Another girl nodded her head excitedly in agreement.

"What's so good about Senior Brother Khan anyways?"

A girl, much younger than the two, suddenly asked.

"You wouldn't know this as you are new to the sect, but Senior Brother Khan is very handsome! He's also strong! Many girls inside the Outer Sect want to be his girlfriend."

The first girl from earlier explained to her.

"..."

"Master, it seems like this 'Senior Brother Khan' will be your opponent."

Veia suddenly said to Rant Valo. They were all hiding behind a bush as the three girls passed them by.

"Disciple, don't worry. We will support you from the side if you think that you don't have fans."

Floriana Sabina gave Rant Valo a wink. She thought that he was worried that he wouldn't have anyone to cheer him on in this unfamiliar place.

"I'm not worried about that. I just want to ask. How am I gonna participate in this sect event?"

Rant Valo stared into Floriana Sabina's eyes. Something about this whole operation seems off now that he was here.

"After the champion is declared, you will jump down from the skies and defeat him."

Floriana Sabina explained to him with an excited look on her face.

Rant Valo couldn't help but facepalm himself. Her plan was so crude. Would it even be a proper way to challenge someone? It would just be rude to steal a champion's limelight.

"I think it could work, Master."

Veia agreed with Floriana Sabina's plan. She could imagine how valiant her master would look once he defeated the 'supposed' champion of the sect tournament.

"I'm not agreeing. I will feel bad for him. I'll just defeat him anyway."

Rant Valo crossed his arms in disagreement. He was a nice person. He wouldn't just steal someone's limelight just for the sake of it. For the champion, it would have been their only chance in life, but for Rant Valo, there are many chances.

"Hohh, so you're saying that you will win the sect tournament easily?"

Floriana Sabina said to Rant Valo, amused.

"Huh? Didn't I just break through your Early Foundation Establishment stage barrier?"

Rant Valo blinked his eyes in confusion. Just that achievement alone was enough to prove that he was stronger than the people participating in the sect tournament. He doesn't think the others could do the same as he did.

"That's true, Disciple. But you wouldn't know."

Floriana Sabina nodded her head before shrugging her shoulders.

"You're right, but… Whatever. I'll do it."

Rant Valo wanted to argue more with her, but since he doesn't really know what to say to her in response, he just gave up and shrugged it off.

"Fufufu. That's more like it, Disciple. If you don't make a grand entrance, it would not be my style."

Floriana Sabina crossed her arms together as she nodded her head in satisfaction.

"Master, I'll cheer you on from the side."

Veia said to Rant Valo with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah."

Rant Valo could do nothing to stop their excitement. They both looked really eager to see him make that grand entrance by falling from the skies and challenging the champion of the sect tournament.

"Why don't we gather intelligence first? About where the tournament will be held and when it will be."

Rant Valo suggested to them. If they didn't even know where and when the sect tournament would be held, then it would just all be for naught.

"Sounds like a plan, Disciple."

Floriana Sabina nodded her head.

"Why don't we ask them, Master?"

Veia pointed to the three girls who were slowly disappearing from their view. They had talked for quite a while, and soon, they wouldn't be able to catch up with them if they still dilly-dallied.

"Let's ask them."

Rant Valo agreed with her.

Thus, they all ran towards the three girls.

"Hey!"

Rant Valo shouted from afar as he ran.

The three girls who were happily chatting with each other turned their heads back at the same time.

"Yes?" x3

They all asked in confusion. They were all deep into their discussions, and suddenly being called confused them.

"Tell us about this sect tournament."

Rant Valo answered before making a complete stop in front of them. Veia and Floriana Sabina were just behind him.

"Are you a disciple of another sect?"

One of the girls asked.

"Ah, yeah. Kinda."

Rant Valo nodded his head awkwardly. He doesn't even know the name of the sect his master attended, yet he was wearing its Sect Robes.

"That's amazing! Are you a traveling Sect Disciple?"

One of them looked at Rant Valo in awe. There was something about being able to travel as a Sect Disciple that made them astounded.

"Yes."

Rant Valo nodded his head once again. Technically, he actually is.

"That's so cool! You must be really strong then! What is your cultivation stage?"

The girls started to flock over him. Being able to travel outside and this far from his sect means that he was already strong enough to protect himself.

Floriana Sabina and Veia looked at Rant Valo and the girls coldly.

"10th Mana Condensation stage."

Rant Valo answered them honestly.

"Wow! Your sect allowed you to travel with that cultivation? You must be already about to reach the Early Foundation Establishment, right?"

A big busted girl pushed her body onto Rant Valo's. Rant Valo couldn't help but be taken aback. Why were these girls flocking over him? Was it really that amazing to be a traveling Sect Disciple? He couldn't help but think that something was wrong with their heads.

"Sort of."

Since Rant Valo knew that he could already reach the Early Foundation Establishment stage if he took another cultivation session, he was technically what they were talking about.
