Chapter 1258: The tournament

Frost Bees collect frost essence from natural places to store them in their large icy hive. A large amount of extremely refined frost honey can be found in their hives, but the problem is finding the location of their hive and taking it out even after they found it.

Even if the frost bees are weak, it is almost impossible to get out of that hive if they are not knowledgeable enough and even the most knowledgeable ones have to take a chance sometimes.

But with Sam’s plan, Aiwa not only found the Bees, she even collected a lot of honey, captured a bunch of bees and gave them back to the sect, and finished the mission. All in one night.

Looking at Aiwa who is jumping around, Sam couldn’t help but smile a bit. Even though he is crippled and in such a bad state, he felt a bit relieved with his life in the past few days.

He doesn’t have to think about his organization, it is almost independent and he bought a safe period of a decade for it to grow while leaving the management to his friends.

His team and Arkiv would be finishing the organization missions without many hiccups, he could take a break and relax while thinking of ways to get back to his body. Since he cannot hurry this up, this forced him to have a lot of time with nothing much to do.

The most he could do is to create new designs and research new things. Other than that, he could just relax, recover, meditate and try to probe that dormant soul once in a while. If there is any retirement, Sam would choose this, he would just go to a random realm and find some cheeky brats to mentor a few days and disappear from there.

That day, Aiwa didn’t go to the sect again. She has a lot of frost honey, it would be stupid of her to not use it immediately.

When she was about to directly consume it, Sam stopped her and created a proper plan on how to consume it.

After that, she took the portion required for that day and Sam made her practice somebody refining methods. He even went so far as to give away the strength poses of Yoga, which he used for his own refining.

Frost honey is the best way to refine the body.

The next day, Aiwa went to the sect and got the next mission after causing a lot of ruckuses and it seems like her master also sided with her after a long time, she became ecstatic.

This mission is also ironically related to the beasts. She has to go fishing for a shark in the sea.

Sam gave tips once again and within two days, she caught the shark and came back.

"This is great, I only have two more tasks and I would be the first one to finish all of the tasks. I will be the only one selected without needing to fight for the place."

"Do you really think, you wouldn’t need to fight for the place?" Sam spoke and poured some cold water on her excitement."

"What do you mean?"

Before he could explain, someone came knocking on the door.

Aiwa was summoned by one of the Elders to have a talk.

"Does this elder has a disciple or a child that is participating in the competition?" Sam asked after the attendant left.

"Yes. So, what?"

He needs to get out of this planet and heal the meridians. Then he would be able to take a more overbearing approach.

After the tournament is over in the Central State, they were taken to the secret grounds where the wormholes for another planet is connected.

An elder from the sect came along with them and explained.

"For the first three days, the tournament wouldn’t start. You will be going through a special pre-tournament phase in which the candidates will be interacting with each other. After three days, the tournament will begin, but then our sect leader and other leaders will all arrive."

After sending them to their arranged residences, the elder didn’t show up for the next three days.

The tournament is being conducted on an island large enough to be a city. But it was not developed. There is only one large castle in the middle of it where everyone is gathered. The rest of the island is as wild as it can get.

Sam kept on checking the island in the first three days, while Aiwa attended the formal meetings with the rest of the candidates.

On the third day all the sect leaders arrived and on the fourth day, the tournament has begun.

While Sam is getting used to his new life, Sivan is more than used to it.

Here Sam is guarding a little girl, while Sivan is leading the most active life he can.

As Sam is in the middle of the tournament, Sivan is in the middle of feasting.

He is currently sitting in the middle of Yanwu and the rest of the beasts as he shared his energy with them.

In front of him is a large empty bowl with some blood spilled around.

Butler Si is holding down a large Sand Badger as he slit its throat and made the blood flow into the bowl.

When the bowl was full, Sivan opened his eyes and started drinking the blood. He felt the earth elemental energy fill his body as he digested it with the vampire bloodline. His eyes are red and his hair also gained the blood-red hue.

His aura became a bit sinister and evil and that grin on his face only made it darker.

The beasts felt a bit revolting when they felt his aura, but they didn’t act up, instead, they took the share of their energy and went back into the divine dimension.

"Not bad, they are at least taking the energy now. Sooner or later, they would accept me."

Sivan muttered as he went into the sea of consciousness and looked at Sam’s dormant soul.

It stood straight with the Ghost chimera surrounding it.

The body language of the soul resembled that of a fearless man which made Sivan envy Sam a bit.
