Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Yang Ma stood up and walked away as Du Yuhan walked back in. 

"Good job, Yuhan, but did you really need to show your hand in the battle just now? You could've done that later on," Wen Cheng said. 

"I'm sorry, sect leader. I did what I thought was the fastest method to win," Du Yuhan said. 

"Sigh, alright. You did well nonetheless," Wen Cheng said and looked back at the stage. 

The 17th match started between a disciple from a lesser-known sect against a disciple from the True Wisdom sect. The disciple from the True Wisdom sect had an easy time winning with his Wood elemental attacks. 

The 18th match was  Yang Ma's. He too easily won against his opponents by throwing out a barrage of his fire attacks..

Wan Li got lucky with his opponent in the 19th match and easily won against him after a few attacks.

The 20th match was won by a disciple of a sect knows as Violet Garden.  The 21st match was won by a disciple of the Honor sect. The 22nd match was won by a beast tamer from the Cloud Valley sect. 

The 23rd match was won by a spear user from a lesser-known sect. Finally, the 24th match was won by a disciple from the Royal Fu Academy. 

Thus the Group C's matches ended. 

The group D's matches ended in almost the same amount of time. 

From 25th through 32nd matches, the matches were won by a disciple from Thousand Hands sect, True Wisdom Sect, Hunting Masters sect, Golden Eagle sect, Cloud Valey sect, Myriad beasts sect, Lesser Immortal sect, and Royal Fu sect. 

"All right junior brother, take care. I will see you tomorrow," Luo Mei said as she and the rest of the Tiger sect left the coliseum. 

Alex walked up to the Hong Wu sect and congratulated Wan Li. Everyone was very surprised with Wan Li making it into the top 32. 

"Seriously Wanwan, tell me how you became so strong? I want to do so too," Fan Ruogang shouted. 

"Fanfan, not the time. Let's leave," Ma Rong said and everyone left for the hotel. 

Once again, it was very late, so when they all reached back to their hotel, they immediately went to their room to rest. Ma Rong called them for a meeting, and the only thing she did was congratulate Wan Li for making this far. 

They didn't have many expectations for him, but he managed to reach the top 32. 

"Do your best for tomorrow as well, that is all we ask. You don't even have to win. You've already made us proud by reaching where you are right now," Ma Rong said. 

"I will win, sect leader," Wan Li said with determination. After coming to the competition, his timid nature was slowly being stripped away and a confident cultivator was being born. 

"Yu Ming, your competition is the final one tomorrow. I don't know if they will set up the singles battle before yours or not but be prepared regardless. It's a single competition, but it may take a long time to complete," Ma Rong said. 

"Yes, Master," Alex replied. 

Once everything was said, Ma Rong dismissed them all and they went back to their room. 

Alex and Wan Li returned to their room and went to their bed. "You should rest for tomorrow's battle, brother Wan. You don't need to read for today," Alex said. 

"It's alright, I'm used to it. You should rest too, brother Yu. You have a match coming up tomorrow as well," Wan Li said. 

"Very well then, Good Night brother Wan," Alex said and went to his bed before logging out.

He went to freshen up himself and then went to the kitchen to eat something light. Once he was done with that he went back to the game and cultivated overnight with Pearl. 

Early in the morning he woke up once again and logged out once more to eat some food.

"Damn, I'm not even hungry. And yet I have to eat?" Alex didn't know what to do. He didn't exercise, his diet was in shambles and now he was eating even when he wasn't hungry. 

'I might just gain a dozen or so kilograms at this rate,' he thought. 

Once he was done eating, he returned back to his room. Just as he was about to enter the capsule, he stopped. 

'Should I use the helmet today? That might be good for my body," he thought. 'No, what am I thinking? I have a competition today. I can do it later if needed.' 

He quickly opened the lid of the capsule and entered. 

He opened his eyes in the game and saw that it was nearly time to leave. He still wondered if he should use the helmet after his competition was done. 

He waited for the knock on the door and walked outside with Wan Li once he heard it. 

"Let's leave," Ma Rong said and walked down the stairs. 

Along the way, Alex realized something that he had been ignoring all this time. 'Oh no. My classes start tomorrow,' he thought. 

"Master, will the competition end today?" Alex suddenly asked. 

"Hmm… most likely. There are about 64 single battles and your maze run remaining until the end. Once that is done, the competition will be over," Ma Rong said. 

"Will we return back to the sect immediately or…?" Alex asked. 

"We will stay for a few days. At least until the rewards are passed along," Ma Rong said. 

"Oh, right, rewards. I forgot there was one too. How do they choose it? I don't suppose everyone who won in a competition gets one," Alex said. 

"No, not really. The winners of the Single battles will get a specific reward, but everyone else won't get any. Instead, the sects will be what get the reward." 

"Depending on the ranking, we can get anything we want from the Royal Treasure vault that we will be allowed to enter," Ma Rong said. 

"Oh, I see. I will look forward to it then," Alex said. 

Soon, the lot was in the coliseum and everyone went to sit in the seating area.
