Celestial Fiend Realm, Pangu Continent, Blood City
Ashiro now wearing a Thrall collar is unable to resist commands the Owner gives, which fell into the unlikely hands of Lord Golgi, a crafty noble merchant looking for his retirement money.
Now under Lord Golgi's command, Ashiro was made to change into a fresh robe and undergarments and bathed by maids in the Golden Goose Tavern for a small sum of spirit stones, his new owner so kindly paid.
Now cleaned up, Ashiro is brought to the private dining room of Lord Golgi, who prepared a sumptuous grand meal for his new toy.
"Bow before seating yourself peasant" declares Old Butler Deon as Ashiro enters the room. Ashiro bowing before seating himself at the end of the table from Lord Golgi.
"Introduce yourself Brat" asserts Lord Golgi proudly. "Kuroi Ashiro My Lord" Ashiro revealed with disgust in his voice.
"So you have a family name, but I've never Heard of it, you must be a fallen nobles son, oh well just raises your value duly noted" Lord Golgi responds vaguely
"Lord, you mentioned auctioning my lowly self at the sect entrance exams?" Ashiro questions back, yet vehemently Cursing this fat fool inside, for him to be Ashiro's Lord is no more then blasphemy and ridiculous in his mind.
"Yes little Brat, with your Physique and talent, I'm sure the one of the Sects or nobles will buy you for a hefty sum" Lord Golgi greedily announces.
"Would you enlighten this lowly one, what Sects shall be participating?" Ashiro timidly vocalizes, to obtain information.
"You learn fast don't yee, hmm since your such a fine resale, I'll let you know that the Seven Sects in the Murim Alliance are to appearing tomorrow, The Number One Sect, Heavenly Fiend Sword Cult, number two, Pure Jade Garden Sect, number three, Azure Dragon Spear sect, number four, White Tiger Blade sect, number five, Black Turtle Hermit sect, number six, Burning Vermillion Bird sect, number seven Golden Buddhist Sect" Lord Golgi affirms with his bellowing voice.
"Would my Lord allow this request, This lowly one be sold to the number one sect, you could earn connections this way my Lord and a great sum" Ashiro questions persuasively
"An Intriguing and Intelligent request, I will ponder upon this, now we resume the feast" assuredly Lord Golgi replied.
The meal included a Peking style golden core Goose, aged and braised earth bear paw, blue deer stewed in blue wine, with whole pork stuffed with pineapple spitroasted over fairy fire, all served with a option of pearl rice, fried rice or mushroom pot stickers, Red Palace Wine and Dynasty Sake.
Ashiro's stomach was nearly comically spilling out by the end of the feast, and drunkenly passed out while eating.
Hence Ashiro was forcibly awakened the next day by his newly assigned maid Hana, with short black hair, amber eyes, and think waist, who also threw a ice cold bucket of water on Ashiro's face, ashamedly because Ashiro is hard to wake while intoxicated.
After being dressed by Bathed and Dressed by Hana, Ashiro was brought by the Guard Captian to the Carriage, whence here he meets the mysterious Archer from the day before, Shù Aila, the daughter of Lord Golgi, a young bright beautiful woman, with platinum blonde hair, green eyes and a half constant smile, adorned in a black thorn-dragon's leather, hunting outfit similar to a Mongolian style, studded with platinum while wearing a titanium alloy chainmail underneath, finally a red foxbears fur as a cloak overtop.

"Sup 'brat' Ashiro" sarcastically Aila exclaimed with giddiness. "Greeting young Master" Ashiro perfunctory replies, "Old Butler set off to Sect Avenue" Lord Golgis yells out commandingly. "Yes Lord" Old Butler Deon humbly exclaims.
Arriving to the center of Blood City, Murim Alliance Sect Venue, sprawling with Rich Clan heads in carriages, bringing their children out for political power, or Merchants with dreams of having gifted children in their delicate carriages, or vagrant cultivators walking the streets around.
All of them are here for one thing.
Strength and Opportunity.
