"Hey, you! This isn't a place for you. Leave at once!" a crisp female voice suddenly called out from the foot of the mountain gate.
Qin Li glanced over and saw a young woman in a long yellow dress. She couldn't have been more than seventeen or eighteen, with bright eyes, pearly teeth, and fair, delicate skin. With her oval face, she was clearly a beauty in the making.
"Miss, I've come to seek a master and learn Martial Arts!" A simple and honest smile spread across Qin Li's tanned face, making him look utterly sincere.
"Seek a master?" The young woman blinked her lively eyes, sizing Qin Li up from head to toe before shaking her head. "I'm afraid not. You're too old. You must be at least thirty, right? You've already missed the best age to begin your training. You should just go home."
Qin Li was speechless. *I look like I'm in my twenties, tops,* he thought. *And she just added a decade to my age. What's wrong with her eyes?*
