Feifei's first day finished an hour later. In the end, she was able to push her way up to the 168th position. That is already an amazing accomplishment for someone of her age and level. After all, there are a lot of higher-level Formations Masters than her at the moment.

Different from Krune, her actual position didn't catch any significant attention. First, because no one could tell her real age since her appearance and identity had been changed. Second, because her cultivation can be considered quite high at the peak of the Core Formation Realm. Usually, someone around this level would be at least close or already in their thirties.

Of course, there were exceptions. One was obviously Biano, Julian, and the members of the same branch as her. The other was the Headquarters, who had access to the hidden details about her identity.

One of the examiners of the headquarters just so happens to be checking her information at the moment.

\”Hum... So she is just 18 at the moment and was a Three Silver Stars Formations Master five months ago, is that correct?\”

The subordinate in front of him nodded.

\”Correctly. Unfortunately, we couldn't find out what Feifei's background is, just that she probably came from another universe.\”

The examiner nodded.

\”Well, there is nothing surprising about it, we get batches of new kids from everywhere all year round. A lot of them are prohibited from using their backgrounds during their training time in our Dalin Universe, it just seems like she is one more of those cases.\”

The examiner pondered a bit and then said.

\”Let's pay some attention to this girl, depending on how she fares in the rest of the competition, we might extend an olive branch for her in the future. The Formations Master Organization is always open for big talents, after all.\”

The subordinate nodded and then left.

Krune's group then returned to their home after the end of the first day. As expected, Feifei couldn't help but laugh when she heard about Krune's day on his side.

\”I say you are more like a magnet of attention. Except for the Golden Stars Level Alchemists, you basically crushed everyone else there. No wonder you are in the news at the moment. Fortunately, your real appearance and identity aren't being disclosed.\”

Krune sighed and said.

\”That's not my fault, I was just answering the questions. Not to mention that all the information is available in the Alchemist's network. How could I expect that the other Silver Stars Alchemists couldn't answer as much as me, it's their lack of study, not mine.\”

Feifei showed a playful smiled and asked.

\”Oh, does it mean that it was my lack of study that I got only the 168th position then?\”

Krune immediately stiffed.

Even Tiane and Ruik couldn't help but laugh at that scene.

Feifei then gave Krune a kiss and said.

\”I'm just joking. Anyway, If I had used my Destiny Core, I could have done a lot better. But you know me, I won't use it unless it is essential or won't bother anyone. I don't like to know about the future. Also, I'm already pleased with what I got in just five months. Besides, it's not like I wish to make a life out of formations, right?\”

Krune and the other two nodded.

They kept at it for quite a while before returning to their own rooms.

The next day soon arrived, and the group parted ways again.

On the way to the Alchemist Competition site, Krune wondered if he should change his appearance once more but soon gave up the idea. He would be using the same working station anyway, so it was too obvious who he was.

Just as Ruik and Krune were about to arrive there, they were stopped by a girl.

\”Wait a moment, please.\”

They could feel from her aura that she is also a demon beast, just like they are.

Krune then asked.

\”Do you need anything from me?\”

The girls shook her.

\”Not you, him.\”

She pointed at Ruik.

Immediately, Ruik and Krune had the same idea.

Ruik came forward and asked.

\”Are you perhaps from the Snake Clan?\”

The girl showed a surprised expression but nodded nonetheless.

\”So you know about us already, that makes things easier then. Would you mind to have a chat for a minute?\”

Krune and Ruik looked at each other and nodded. The Alchemist Competition would only start an hour later, so Krune could hear what she had to say too.

The girl didn't expect Krune to tag along but didn't mind that much. Soon, they entered a private room in a nearby restaurant.

\”My name is Katia Kaku, a member of the Snake Clan of our Riren Planet. I'm here to invite you to join our ranks, Ruik.\”

Ruik, on the other hand, didn't seem very interested.

\”I'm sorry, but I don't have any intention of being bound to some force. I'm pretty happy with my freedom, you know.\”
