[You've already guessed the identity of the person before you, thinking to yourself that this woman is truly blind to talent. Xu Ruohai is nothing compared to Zhang Xiaoran, who fought you in the arena earlier; he's far stronger than Xu Ruohai. Yet, you lack the discernment to recognize a true powerhouse.]
The woman, oblivious to your disdain, continued with great interest, "If you really defeat Xu Ruohai, what harm would it do for me to marry you!"

[Lihu City is a medium-sized city with a martial arts school located on the edge of Qinghu Lake. After all, Qinghu Lake is eight hundred li long, and there are quite a few cities surrounding it.]
[Of course, there are also fishing villages in Lihu City, and the force controlling these villages is the city's only martial arts school: Baishui Martial Arts School.]
