Cui Shuyin and Duan Lie agree to a high-stakes wager on Lin Feng's upcoming match, with a million spirit stones and a Dominion Grade Treasure on the line. Lin Feng is introduced to Ruolan Xin, who questions his strength, but he dismisses himself as a weak alchemist. They arrive at the Alchemy Pavilion's territory, seeing vast spirit fields and a large arena, where Lin Feng learns about the significance of the alchemist tournament. Elder Shen reveals Lin Feng's opponent will be Fan Shengyuan, a cultivator with equal cultivation but who is on the verge of a breakthrough.

"When are you planning to arrange their battle? If possible, do it at the start, since I am not interested in watching the Alchemy Pavilion tournament.."

The Sword Pavilion’s tournament is in a couple of days, and so Cui Shuyin didn’t want to waste much of her time here.

"Well, that can be done." Shen Tainji nodded, "Fan Shengyuan, take Lin Feng to the arena and wait for my instructions.."

Fan Shengyuan nodded and looked at Lin Feng, "Follow me.."

Lin Feng sensed slight haughtiness in his voice and shook his head internally, it was something which was expected from an alchemist. He followed quietly.

Cui Shuyin smiled and looked at others, "Now then, who is interested in a little gambling?"

"I was thinking when you will say that, Elder Cui.." A man with sharp eyes and handsome bearing spoke calmly.

"Are going to tell me that it isn’t allowed, Elder Zhao. Last time I heard, Judgement Pavilion didn’t interfere in matters of head elders.." Cui Shuyin gave an amused smile.

"I didn’t say that it isn’t allowed, Elder Cui. I just keep watch over fairness, like you cannot use all the resources meant for Sword Pavilion for your own use to just gamble away.." Zhao Tianheng stated calmly.

"Tch! Sword Pavilion might be broke, but I am not. Anyway, you are more than welcome to carry out your investigation later, but right now, tell me if you are participating or not.." Cui Shuyin snorted slightly.

Zhao Tianheng stayed quiet for a moment before nodding, "Alright, what’s the wager.."

Cui Shuyin smiled while nodding, "Glad you asked.." She then turned her attention to a woman who was wearing slightly revealing robes, making sure to show enough yet also hide enough to entice curiosity among those who looked at her, "What about you, Elder Yin?"

Yin Qianshui smiled charmingly, "When have I ever said no to you, Sister Cui.."

"Stop your seduction, it didn’t work on me.." Cui Shuyin shook her head.

"Awwe~ If only you visit the Seduction Pavilion once, I will show you the way of pleasure without even touch—"

"Just stop.." Cui Shuyin shook her head in slight annoyance. She turned her attention to others.

"You already know my answer.." Qin Ruoxuan smiled.

"Well, who am I to decline such an opportunity." Tian Ruhai, head elder of Mission Pavilion, nodded in acceptance too.

"Count me in too, and since all of us are going to join, make sure the wager is worthwhile.." Han Kuang gave a slight nod.

"Very well, I initially thought of one million high-grade spirit stones, but now after Elder Duan’s request, one early Dominion Realm treasure is also added. If you all want to add more, then you can tell me.." Cui Shuyin sat down on an empty seat and looked at others in expectation. She didn’t mind high stakes, because she was certain that she wasn’t going to lose.

"Make it five million high-grade spirit stones with one two early Dominion Realm treasures.." Zhao Tianheng gave a subtle smile to Cui Shuyin.

Cui Shuyin raised her eyebrows slightly, "Why do I feel like you are trying to test the depth of my pockets..." Her lips curled up, "It’s fine though, five million and two treasures it is. I hope others agree to it.."

Others felt a little pinch but still nodded, that much was something they all had, but they felt if they lost, they were definitely going to regret it..

"So make your bets then, whom do you all choose, Lin Feng or Fan Shengyuan? My choice is obvious, Feng’er." Cui Shuyin waited for their response.

She already had a feeling that only Qin Ruoxuan might take the risk of choosing Feng’er, others would definitely consider all the factors into account before making their decision.

...

Lin Feng and Fan Shengyuan arrived near the arena enacted in the middle of the gathering of disciples from multiple Pavilions.

The moment they landed, Lin Feng felt multiple curious eyes landing on him. He could also hear some of their words as they talked among themselves about who he was.

Among these gazes, he felt one gaze which was filled with hidden killing intent. There was no need to look at the person to know whom it belonged to, Zhe Peng..

He didn’t pay much attention to it as he really didn’t care about it. He closed his eyes and waited for the match to start.

...

"Who is he?" A woman asked with slightly shining eyes, she was wearing Seduction Pavilion’s robe and sitting in higher seats which were meant for geniuses only..

"No idea, Senior Sister. It seems to be a new disciple, or else we would have definitely known about the presence of such a refined man among our sect.." Another disciple beside her spoke.

"What a waste, he should have joined Seduction Pavilion with his looks.." Another one spoke with a slightly dejected tone.

...

"This is Lin Feng?" A man with a refined body and bulky appearance asked with a slight frown, he was wearing Battle Pavilion’s robe, "Why does Master praise him so much? He doesn’t seem to be strong, he is more suitable for admiration among women.."

"Hehehe, Junior Brother, looks can be deceiving sometime..." A man beside him laughed while shaking his head.

...

"So this is Lin Feng.." A disciple wearing Judgement Pavilion’s robe looked at Lin Feng with slightly squinted eyes. For the past few days, he had been trying to find Lin Feng on the orders of Zhe Peng, but Lin Feng hadn’t left his peak or Sword Pavilion, making it impossible for him to sought Lin Feng out without proper reason.

He even talked with disciples of Sword Pavilion, but none of them even knew that Lin Feng was a disciple of Sword Pavilion.

"Should we try to make contact with him right now?" Another disciple asked.

"No, he is the center of attention right now, we cannot confront him without proper reason. Let’s just bide our time, surely someday he will come out of his hole.."
