"Oww, don’t tell me I hurt your feelings?" — the straight, perfect smile played on her lips, mocking, despite her being the one on the ground. "If that’s the best you can do, I don’t even want to see the worst." As she tried to lift the upper half of her body, the second blow came straight to her ribs, pressing her back onto the dirty ground once again. She’d have to add this to her list of “stupid and potentially suicidal things” she had done. The foot that pinned her to the ground remained firm on her back, preventing her lungs from fully expanding. He—whose name she’d have to struggle to remember—said something, a whisper lost in the wind, as all she could hear was her own heartbeat while she threw a mocking smile at the bastard. She never wanted to be important, an Aureadora, or anything like that. Living on the margins had always been enough. With no inclination to be a smiling heroine, she had been ripped from her home. Her place. Those who lived on the margins of the dome had no rights, were nothing. And that was fine… until it wasn’t. And now, she would make all of Speranta burn for it.

An ordinary cultivator - that was the best way to describe Zhao Yunxiao. Be it in terms of strength or talent, he had always been in the middle of the pack, neither excelling nor falling behind. However, he did not really think badly of his current situation. Some people were destined to become the stars in the skies, while some people were born to be like the rocks on the ground. The stars might be dazzling, but the rocks supported the earth itself. Both of them were necessary in order to maintain the balance of this world. As someone ordinary, Zhao Yunxiao did his best to live his ordinary life to the fullest. He was careful and meticulous, doing his best to make sure he understands everything fully instead of jumping into doing things. He knew his limits and did not dream of anything out of reach. Instead, all he wished for was to live a life of freedom. But one day, he realised that something seemed to be amiss. Perhaps he was mistaken all along. Perhaps even the rocks on the ground had their chance to shine under the right circumstances, even if only for the slightest of moments. This is the tale of an ordinary cultivator... until he was no longer ordinary. *** This story will be written for leisure and thus not be locked, but if you are feeling generous and wish to show your appreciation in monetary terms... https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/SweatingCloud
