Chapter 307: Combat Competitions (1/2)

The hair receded back into his head as his eyes changed colors and went back to being brown. His facial structure also moved a little and he was back to looking like his real-life self.

”Brother Wan, I've changed face once more, please don't freak out,” he told Wan Li. Wan Li seemed pretty trigger happy last time so as to caution he let him know beforehand.

Wan Li looked up from his papers and said, ”Oh, you look… different. Why did you change? Aren't you going to take part in the competition?”

”I needed to change my face a little, and master said I can take part despite having a different face, so I did,” he said.

”Okay. As long as it is allowed,” Wan Li said and no longer bothered him with questions regarding his face.

A knock landed on their door and both of them left the room. Once he walked outside, the various people looked at him weirdly for a second, until he explained to them what was going on.

Ma Rong left her room and asked, ”Is everyone here?”

”Yes, we are ready to leave,” an elder said.

”Hm, where is— Oh, you changed face already. I didn't recognize you. Let's leave,” she said and started walking downstairs.

Down at the ground floor, they met Fatty Xu once more, but this time, he didn't have any remarks for them. Instead, he said, ”Congratulations. You guys beat us fair and square,” and left with his group.

Han Long was in the group and turned to the few and waved to them. He looked for Alex for a few seconds and left after not finding him.

Ma Rong also took her group and left.

Along the way, Ma Rong called Alex forward and silently asked, ”I don't remember seeing anyone in the sect or the Scarlet city with a face like that. Is that a face belonging to someone from the Tiger sect?”

”Uhh… no. You have never seen this person before,” Alex said.

”Oh, where is this person from?” Ma Rong asked.

”Uhh, it's my brother's face,” Alex said.

”Your brother?” Ma Rong looked at him with a confused face. ”I thought you had no siblings,” Ma Rong said.

”Um… I have, but he was a mortal, and before I left my village, uh… he died,” Alex lied.

Ma Rong looked at him with shock on her face. He controlled herself and said, ”I see. It's a good-looking face.” Ma Rong no longer asked any question and left him be.

Fan Ruogang then started pestering Alex for more information on why he changed his face and even Zhou Mei started asking some questions.

But these were questions that Alex could not answer so he just gave a random explanation and satiated their curiosity.

Around 7 pm, they finally reached the Coliseum and went straight to the arena where the majority of the sect was gathered.
