The next day.

“What? I don’t have to participate in the alchemy category anymore? Why?” someone had passed Ye Lang a message immediately after he arrived at the Light Arena.

“Sir, you don’t have to participate in the tournament...”

“Because you’re already the champion!” a staff on duty gave a look that said ‘congratulations’.

Ye Lang and the rest were stunned for a moment. Not just Ye Lang- Ye Lanyu and the rest didn’t understand either. What was going on? What champion?

“You must be joking. I haven’t competed in anything yet, how can I be the champion?” Ye Lang asked the most important question.

Ye Lang indeed hadn’t competed in any alchemy-related event so far. It was ridiculous for him to be declared champion.

“We don’t have a choice, it’s because all of the alchemists have left for Miracle Square to look at your alchemy formation. They say there’s no meaning in this competition anymore, and you’re going to win anyway,” said the staff member, admiration in his eyes.

“...” Ye Lanyu and the rest were silent. They believed this was the most peculiar event in the history of this tournament. Literally every participant had chosen to abandon the event.

However, perhaps this situation was possible in the alchemy category. Only alchemists would do this. Magicians and warriors were too competitive, often almost killing themselves to win a competition.

Upon hearing this, he waved, “Oh, really? It’s alright! I’m too lazy to compete anyway… Wait, Miracle Square, where’s that?”

“Miracle Square is the place you and the Lady built yesterday. We have already named it Miracle Square because it looked like a miracle. Sir, would you want to change the name?” explained the staff on duty.

Ye Lang shook his head. “No, this is your business and it’s just a name. And it’s a great name too.”

“Alright, then I shall excuse myself, sir! I wish you all the best for the competition!” the staff member left.

“What competition? Oh, we still have another round of mixed category event. Why did you have to sign us up for this? I could’ve gone back…” Ye Lang complained.

Without this event, he literally could leave this city to the place he kept wanting to go.

“Even if there wasn’t a competition, you still have to return with us. Would you want to lose your way again?” asked Ye Lanyu.

“I’m not going home with you…” replied Ye Lang, but he was interrupted by Ye Lanyu---

“Why not? What are you going to do?”

“I’m going on vacation! And I’m going to visit Tigress too…”

“Uh, I almost forgot. You were only passing. Then I guess you should go see Tai Ya. I wonder what Tai Ya would think if she knew you were so late because you lost your way…” Ye Lanyu remembered Ye LAng’s original plan and couldn’t wait to know what Tigress’ reaction would be.

“Uh… I won’t tell her…” Ye Lang said with resolution. He knew Tigress would definitely worry if he told her about it.

He wouldn’t mind if all she did was get angry and yell at him. However, she never did that, only quietly doing her part to serve and care for him.

“The event’s starting!” said Ye Lanyu.

Ye Lang nodded, “Time to drink tea…” He entered the arena with Zhen Xiaoyan, then proceeded to chat over tea.
