Chapter 470 - Going For 3

Once more before cultivating, Alex wondered if he really shouldn't just go to Mind Tempering 3rd realm. "Better be cautious," he said and closed the panel.

It was all ready, so he could go anytime he wanted either way. "I will see how well my battles tomorrow are. Based on that, I may break through tomorrow," he thought.

He took out a beast core and flicked it towards Pearl who jumped in the air and caught it with his mouth. He immediately munched on it and started getting sleepy.

"Come, cultivate," Alex said.

"Meow," Pearl cried out and got on his lap before finding himself a perfect place to lie down on.

Alex chuckled and shook his head as he got ready to cultivate once more. He took a deep breath and soon the world around him turned silent as he slowly drifted into a trance and fell asleep.

Early in the morning, Alex opened his eyes and looked at the time, it was 6 am in morning. He told pearl to stop cultivating and soon sent him back to his beast space.

He was in the Tiger sect and couldn't spare to show Pearl to anyone for even a single moment.

Alex logged out and went to the kitchen to find that Emily was already awake and cooking their breakfast.

She had a crappy body and talent in the game, so she didn't have a very fun time in the game at all. She could barely remain as an outer sect disciple of some mid-tier sect.

So, she liked spending her time in the real world, rather than the game. Alex stayed with her and talked for a bit as she finished preparing breakfast. Once she was done,? Sarah and Hannah arrived as well and ate their breakfast.

Once they were done, Alex returned back to his room and logged in to sell his formation real quick before getting ready for his classes.

He walked over to the marketplace and got his formations checked out. It turned out that his recent formation flags that he had been purchasing himself and carving the origins onto them were actually barely Earth grade at best.

He couldn't help but chuckle when he realized how bad he was at making the formation flags.

Some of that problem definitely lied with the metal he carved them on, but most of the problem was definitely with the angle he carved the formation on. His strokes were probably not straight either with how the formation rods were curved.

Still, he managed to at least make back what he spent on them, so he was quite happy.

Once he returned back, he logged in and got ready for his classes.

"Are you going to keep using my car? Why not buy one for yourself?" Emily asked.

"Eh? But sister has one, so I'm fine for now," Alex said as he drove towards his classes. "Besides, I won't really be needing them for a while after I drop out from university."

"Huh? You're going to drop out?" Emily asked with a concerned face.

"Yeah, I'm not really getting out of the university. Still, on the off chance that I need to go back, I will at least finish the first semester," Alex said.

"Sigh, I guess I can understand what you mean, but it's still sad that you won't continue it. I guess I will have to start considering the idea of going back to university classes alone," she said.

"It's not all that bad. I will try to make some time for us," Alex said. However, he didn't let go of the idea of dropping out of his classes.

His exams would start in just 2 weeks, and after that, he would drop out of college to focus on earning more money.

The two of them started talking about other things as they went to their classes. After their classes were over, they returned back to their home.

He was quite happy to learn that his classes for the semester were ending after this week. 'I will have a lot of free time for the game,' he thought. The game was all he could really think about at the moment.

After he went back to the game, Alex felt a vibration in his storage bag and realized that he had been challenged.

'Are they really that desperate that they think I will go high so fast?' he thought. He wondered if he wanted to go up or not, but in the end, thought...

"Maybe I should just go for the 3rd rank right now' he thought. If he got the 3rd rank he could immediately start with his Sword Intent training. That way, maybe he could reach the realm of what a proper Sword Intent was like.

Alex walked out of his house and went along the side of the sect crater to go towards the fighting stages.

He checked his badge and went to stage number 15 where his first match was. His number was soon called out, and he went up.

His opponent was a young man that seemed terrified of him. He was most likely simply fighting him because he was told to.

Alex shook his head and quickly beat this man before moving on to the next one. He was still keeping his cultivation base hidden, so people didn't really realize how high his cultivation base was improved.

They kept on coming for him regardless and regardless of who they were Alex beat them.

His final opponent was a man in rank 163 who was using water abilities against him. Since the water wasn't as deadly of an element in the hands of someone so weak compared to him, Alex didn't need to worry about it at all.

He dashed forward, going in a zig-zag pattern dodging all of the attacks. Once he was next to the man, he lightly pushed him with an open palm. The opponent flew through the air and fell out of the stage.

Alex was finally done with all 10 of his challenges.. Next up was his own challenge.
