Chapter 45 End of The Tournament
It was now the morning of the second day.
On the tournament's first day, Han Cai and Kong Dandan were in the top 10, Han Cai being number one. When the second-day tournament began, the discipline hall elders removed seven platforms and kept only 3. The leading nine disciples competed for the last two platforms while Han Cai sat on the first. No one tried to compete for the first platform with Han Cai.
Han Cai did not try to help Kong Dandan again because he did not want to overdo it. Shihong took the second platform and fought a tough battle with Bohai, and Bohai got injured in that battle and had to be sent to the infirmary. Shihong was nervous that Han Cai would decide to help Kong Dandan, then he would have to go for the third platform, but Han Cai did not move neither did Kong Dandan.
Kong Dandan just sat in the corner; He knew his limitations, so he did not try to challenge these talented beasts. He decided to sit in the corner of the arena and rest. The second-day competition ended just like the first day. The last two positions were taken by Shihong and Liqin.
On the third day, the winner of the tournament was basically decided as the discipline hall elders took away the remaining two platforms and left only one. No one tried to occupy it except Han Cai. Han Cai sat there on the first platform cultivating. He wanted to yawn but did not want to ruin the cold, aloof persona that he had built, so he kept his yawn in control. All the participants sat around in the arena, quietly cultivating. On the fourth day, the outer sect tournament finally ended.
Elder Miao stood in the center of the Arena and Announced the results on the fourth day. The First place, without any surprises, was taken by Han Cai, Second Place was given to Shihong, Liqin received third place, and Fourth Place surprisingly went to Kong Dandan.
After the announcement Sect master and two elders beside him entered the arena. The remaining inner sect elders followed suit. The outer sect elders also entered the arena from the south of the arena. When the outer elders reached the center, they bowed and greeted the sect master.
With a big smile, Elder Zhou slyly walked toward Han Cai and stood beside him. He did not notice that the elder Ji also came and stood near Han Cai. Elder Miao announced the sect master himself would distribute prizes.
Sect master went to the center of the arena and nodded at elder Miao. Then he said, "I am very pleased with the outer sect disciple's performance in this tournament. You all have worked hard, and you should know the sect rewards everyone who works hard. Do not be disappointed if you do not win the first prize. Keep trying to improve your cultivation."
While the Sect master was speaking, Han Cai thought the sect master must have charm stat around ten too. Too bad I can't scan him, or I would have known.
Han Cai checked that scanning the sect master cost around a hundred thousand exchange points, which was too much.
After speaking, the sect master turned towards Han Cai and smiled. "For the first place, seeing your great performance, the elders of the Inner sect and I are very pleased. We have decided to award you with not 500 but 1000 spirit stones. The alchemy hall of the inner sect will provide you with a foundation establishment pill."
