Chapter 101: Leaving
"Hahaha hahaha," he started laughing like an idiot. Ma Rong could already tell that the pill had a high harmony, still, she walked in to test it.
Alex looked at her and said, "Oh, hello master. I didn't see you come in." He got up from the ground and dusted himself off.
Ma Rong had already taken out a pill tester and brought it forward. Alex didn't question anything and just put the pill directly into the pill tester.
Ma Rong watched as the fog slowly rise up. She had expected it to cross 40% and wasn't surprised when it did. As she watched the fog slowly rise up, more and more until it stopped at 50%.
"Heaven! You made a Heaven grade pill!!" she involuntarily let out a loud shock.
"Yeah. I got lucky for the most part, but yes. Getting fresh ingredients also helped a lot." He said with a smile.
Ma Rong didn't say another word as she kept on looking at the pill and only spoke after a while, "It took me until I was an elder before I made a heaven-grade pill, yet you made it in just under a month. This is way too shocking."
Alex didn't reply, but instead asked a question, "What are you doing here master? Are we going to have another lesson?"
"Hmm… No. Did you forget what day it is today?" she asked.
"Today? It's Monday of course. Was something supposed to happen today?" he was a little confused.
"Did you forget what you said 2 weeks ago?" Ma Rong asked.
"2 weeks ago?" he started thinking. His perfect memory only went back until the Wednesday before the last one, so he needed to think a bit to remember.
"Oh, wait. Tiger sect. Am I going to Tiger Sect?" he asked, finally realizing what she meant.
"Yes, I'm here to take you to the Tiger sect right now. Come with me." She said as she started walking out.
"Master, the pill?" he asked, stopping her in her tracks.
Ma Rong only then realized she was still holding the pill tester. "Oh right," she quickly took out a pill bottle and put it back.
"Here," she handed him the pill back. Instead of taking it, however, he brought out 6 other pill bottles. "Master, take these. Please register them on my behalf when you have the time. I won't be able to now that I'm leaving for Tiger sect."
Ma Rong checked the pills and realized all of them were some of his best products. "How many more pills do you have to make?" she asked.
"None. That was my last one." He said pointing to the blood-red pill.
"Alright then, after you come back from the Tiger sect in 2 weeks, you will have to take the core disciple test." She said and kept the pills. She then gave him a storage bag.
Alex took the bag and found out it was full of different types of healing pills. "What's this for master?" he asked.
"You will need them if you are going to the tiger sect. Especially since you won't have Wen Cheng's protection for about a few weeks." Ma Rong said.
"Not have master's protection? I don't understand, Master."
"Basically, Wen Cheng wants to keep your relationship as a secret for a few weeks. That doesn't matter right now, Wen Cheng will explain to you most of the rest." She then took out a set of bluish-gray robes that were very plain to look at.
"Wear these for now," she threw the robes at him.
Alex quickly changed into his new plain robes and walked outside with her. "Master, I can go by myself if you are busy by the way." He said.
"Nonsense. Come on, I'm taking you there." She said as she took out the flying boat and got on top of it.
"Master, do you really need the boat now that you have spiritual sense?" he asked.
"Not really, but it is still easier to use, and I'm used to it." She said and gestured for him to climb up. Alex jumped onto the boat and the boat set off.
"Alright, listen up. I talked to Wen Cheng, and we decided that you need to learn to confront a normal sect on your own. You will enter the sect as a normal disciple and rise along with the ranks the normal way. Also, this might be the chance for you to breakthrough in your cultivation, so make sure to properly cultivate every night. "
"Wen Cheng will teach you the rest. While I may not like admitting it, he really is a good teacher. Both of his disciples are the best Tiger sect has produced in a while." Ma Rong talked a lot but somehow didn't give out a lot of information.
"Alright, go invisible," she said and watched Alex disappear in front of her eyes. "Oh yeah, one more thing. You are not allowed to use the invisibility technique or the Flickering Shadows technique during your fights. Only use them in training, or when you spar against Wen Cheng."
Alex couldn't understand why that was, but it probably had something to do with hiding his talent and abilities. His master did say it made people jealous.
"Here we are, Jump down and reappear in an alley. After that just go to the sect gate and tell them your name and that you are a new disciple of the sect. They should know that someone like you is arriving."
Alex nodded and did as she said. "Goodbye master," he said and jumped down, slowly floating his way down. After landing, he went to a nearby alley and appeared from the other side finally visible.
He walked towards the north side of the town looking for the gate to the sect. When he finally found it, he was shocked.
He had been expecting a big gate with no other building in the vicinity. But instead, the Tiger sect's gate was actually a small bustling market on its own.
