''How did I even get talked into doing this,'' Noah grimaced sweeping his gaze on a luxurious looking room, before pausing on thedy literally across the room.


    Both individuals stared at each other, both not willing to drop their guard.


    Noah felt unsure of the full power the middle-stageddy before him held, but he understood that he wouldn''t be far behind in might. Hopefully.


    Up until his full assimtion of Aiden''s memories, the matter concerning understanding the power of individuals around him, had been something he did instinctively.


    However, with Aiden''s knowledge now in y, he could clearly understand what to look for, which were; the density of the individuals mana and the persons body. The mind was a different issue.


    Like the woman before him, Noah could feel a really high concentration of manaing from her figure. Although she expertly bottled up that power within her body, his senses managed to pick up extremely miniscule whiffs of that energy, which were more than enough. For him at least.


    The quality of her mana also spoke of her talent, but its color seemed visible to only his senses. Something that both confused him, yet hepletely understood.


    Her body on the other hand simply gave off a highly sturdy aura.


    Having encountered lots of lower-stage tier 3''s who had body in the first grade, he could clearly sense the superiority between hers and theirs. But it also wasn''t overwhelming to him, like that of higher stage cultivators, whose bodies felt untouchable to him.


    "Are you going to keep up with that," Noah eventually broke the heavy silence, rubbing his temples in the process.


    "You''re far stronger than me. I clearly can''t make a move on you," he lied through his teeth. With the power he currently held, he felt capable of pinning her down. Even if for merely a few seconds. Although he couldn''t be sure of that evaluation. She could be more powerful than the norm.


    Recieving nothing but a nk stare; Noah sighed in slight annoyance.


    Sweeping his gaze once again on the rtivelyrge room, his eyesnded on the king sized bed. Looking wellid and fluffy even to his eyes. In short it looked beautiful.


    He however, definitely wouldn''t be able to share it with her, due to her obvious insecurity. But he also didn''t want to sleep on the ground; even though it was well rugged.


    A battle between the teachings on earth and his own desire raged within his mind. But both seemed to be perfectly matched, none exiting victorious even after five minutes!


    "I can''t totally sense your power," thedy''s voice eventually rang out, and she soon raised her knees to her chest, her arms holding those limbs in ce.


    "I refuse to believe you are weaker," she announced, her voice almost a whisper, but still audible.


    Noah could only shake his head at that point. With those simple words, his gentleman side had found the strength to win the battle.


    "I''ll sleep there then," Noah announced pointing at a space a few meters from the bed.


    "No need, I''ll sleep over here. You take the bed," she countered.


    "You''re making this difficult," Noah frowned. "I''ll sleep on the ground," he dered, his tone final.


    A few moments of silence passed after that exchange of words. Only the soundsing from the street being heard.


    "I''m Ariana by the way," she eventually spoke, breaking the silence, but not making eye contact with Noah, despite his tries to achieve that.


    Truth be told, Noah felt thedy before him, a totally different person from the one in the reception.


    Her tone had experienced a drop, and the fierceness in her eyes had vanished. She looked cute now that he thought to it, and he couldn''t help but re-inspect her features.


    Ariana was a woman who looked to be in her mid-twenties, which spoke of her immense talent in cultivating. She sported long blonde hair which she allowed to fall on her shoulders, but had a ck ribbon on the side of her head.


    Her attire featured a skin tight trouser ck in colour, which did no job in hiding her nigh-perfectly shaped hips and above average sized butt. A detail Noah had noticed earlier in the reception.


    Her chest featured a pair ofrge; but not over the top, seemingly perfectly round breasts, that looked plump and potentially bouncy even from Noah''s position. Her red fitted shirt couldn''t do much to hide those Incredible details.


    Her fair skin seemed to glisten in the light of the room, probably due to the level of her body. But it remained mesmerizing nheless.


    Ariana''s face remained blemishless, and her azure eyes mixed with a green hint, further enhanced her natural beauty.<novelnext></novelnext>


    Although she wasn''t breath-taking like Isabe, her looks stood far above average.


    "Why did you agree to share when you knew you''d be insecure," Noah asked, almost mocking her.


    She noticed his tone and promptly opened her mouth to speak, her fierceness quickly flickering back into her eyes. But that reaction was short lived, since no words eventually exited her mouth. And she soon turned her head to the side, her face flushed.


    Understanding dawned on Noah, and he struggled to keep the smile trying to find its way to his face, in check.


    "I see...." He muttered. ''I guess she agreed due to my looks,'' Noah grinned inwardly.


    "Well I''ll go take a shower," Noah announced, his n to embarrass the youngdy even more kick-starting.


    Feeling her uncertain gaze follow his movement, Noah hid the smug grin on his face while he entered the bathroom.


    A few minutes quickly passed and he exited the bathroom revealing his bare upper body, only a long white towel around his hips. It reached his knee in length.


    Shaking his head to get all the water out, Noah didn''t forget to add a bit of drama to that normal action, and he smiled when he saw that he got the right reaction from his only audience.


    Staring in utter awe, Ariana found herself struggling to rip her gaze from the Incredibly charming entity before her.


    Feeling her experienced heart, beat faster and blood rush to her face, she watched him shake off the water in his hair. That event seemingly happening in slow motion to her, as Noah''s pure white hair sparkled in the rooms light.


    ''He''s a vixen!'' she exmained Inwardly, but her thoughts proved wrong, since the ck attire he had on before, quickly appeared on his figure after that disyed.


    Walking towards the spot he had promised to sleep on, Noah felt himself enjoy teasing that woman. A person he had barely know for an hour.


    Grabbing a pillow from the wellid bed with white sheets, he proceeded to ce it on the ground, before promptlyying on it.


    Closing his eyes for a few minutes, he furrowed his brows before suddenly reopening his eyes, sessfully catching his roommate stealing a nce at him.


    "I''ll get naked if you continue staring that much," Noah teased, repositioning his body to rest on his palm, his elbow lifting his head up.


    Watching her face go red in utter embarrassment, Noah grinned as he watched her get up and enter the bathroom without so much as a word.


    A sigh escaped his mouth at that point, and he found himself wondering where he got the confidence to tease a woman.


    ''I thank the gods for my looks,'' Noah grinned after a few light thoughts found their way into his mind.


    Ten minutes eventually passed but Airiana remained inside the bathroom. However, Noah didn''t seem to notice the passage of time.


    He had already begun to wonder about the events the screening process would hold.


    Multiple ideas appeared and disappeared in his mind, but he couldn''t be sure of their possibilities.


    Noah''s deep thought was interrupted by the sound of the bathrooms door closing.


    A figure stepped out of that room, and Noah remained stunned when heid eyes on a barely clothed Ariana.


    A white towel remained the only thing that shielded her nakedness, and Noah''s mind inevitably struggled to remain calm at that realization.


    She clearly wanted him to notice her, and he soon understood that this was her way of paying him back.


    ''Isn''t this a bit extreme,'' Noah thought, his eyes struggling to leave her figure.


    "Oops..." Ariana''s t voice resounded, and the towel wrapped around her figure dropped to the ground.
