***
The prologue of the novel (the first 2 chapters) is tragic and hard to digest but HOLD ON!
Do read at least the first 10 chapters before deciding to drop off.


Note: No Gender-Bender, Yuri, NTR and Rape.

Shards of the Broken Heart

The fight started with Alice taking the initiative as she closed in towards the smiling monk and stabbed her sword towards him.

She was more cautious in her approach than the last match as she kept her eyes diverted away, not directly looking at Bu Shuo. Alice also covered herself with flames as a defensive armour.

But her opponent was not fazed at all. He didn't even put up any guard or use any artifact but just stood there and looked at the approaching Alice with smiling eyes.

And as a result, Alice's sword pierced into his torso. The monk's expression changed to that of pain as he grunted.

It was too shocking a sight for everyone. The monk was insta-killed just as the match had started.

Alice pulled out her sword, and she found that there was no blood in it.

She suddenly leapt away from her position, and simultaneously, a black cudgel was struck at the position she was standing on just a second before.
