He knew very well that the person who had the storage ring was not an indiscriminate person and usually those who wore the storage ring were either the children of Royal Nobles or elite disciples from famous sects. Zhang En who saw the attitude of the cashier frowned.
"Miss, what's wrong?" ask Zhang En.
"There's nothing Young Master" he replied nervously.

"Did the young master just come to this town?
"Yes.. I just traveled and just got to this town"
Knowing the young man in front of him was a newcomer, the cashier explained to Zhang En that many people had come to the capital to watch and attend the tournament held by the Emperor.
