Alex set up his new, expensive laptop. He was really fascinated by how good the laptop was. He quickly set up everything required for his school and used it for a bit. 

At around 3 PM, Hannah asked him to go eat something. 

"Oh, this is quite tasty," Alex said as he ate the stir-fried noodles. 

"Right, Vinny taught me this recipe. I try to eat this whenever I can," Hannah said. 

"Oh yeah, sister, when is dinner? By what time should I log out?" he asked. 

"Dinner? Don't worry about it. I will set quite a lot of it now and put it in the fridge. You can heat it up in the microwave whenever you want and eat it," Hannah said. 

"Oh, That is quite convenient," he said. 

"Yeah, we've been doing that ever since the game arrived more than 2 months ago."

After finishing his food, Alex went back to his room, while Hannah remained for a little longer to prepare the dinner. Alex took out his new helmet and quickly found a socket to plug it into. With everything set, he laid down in his comfy bed, put on his helmet, and logged in.







Alex opened his eyes inside the house. He looked around, and then looked at the time. "I guess it's time for me to leave," he thought out loud. 

"Master, I'm leaving soon." He sent out a message on a communication talisman meant for his master. He expected his master to come and give him a farewell, but instead, he just got a message telling him to meet his senior brother before leaving. 

"Guess, I'll just go say my farewells to Senior Sister, or who knows how much she will beat me when she meets me next." He laughed to himself and made his way to Luo Mei's house. 

There was barely anyone on the mountain, and those that were didn't bother with him. Only after walked higher up the mountain did he have to change his aura to not be noticed by others. 

He found Luo Mei still inside her house, learning some sort of book. 

"Oh, Junior Brother, you're here," she said. He looked around and didn't find Meng Yun, who usually was with Luo Mei. 'Is she logged out?' he wondered. Based on her speed of cultivation, she could only be a player who had joined the Tiger sect from very early on. 

As to give her her privacy, he hadn't asked or even talked about it with Meng Yun. After, she was just playing a game like him. 

"Are you ready to leave, Junior Brother?" she asked. 

"Yes, that is what I came to say, Senior Sister," he said. 

After a couple of exchanges, he bade farewell walked down the large, main road straight to the gate. There, he asked an Elder and was taken to his Senior Brother.

"Oh, you're leaving already?" Liu Xun asked when he saw Alex ready to leave.

"Yes," Alex replied. 

"Alright. Master wanted me to tell you a few different things. He wanted to tell you himself, but he understood how hard it was for you with so many Elders in front of your door." Liu Xun shook his head. 

'Elders in front of my house? Hope they don't get mad just because I ignored them,' he thought.

"Anyway, the no-reply tactic must've worked since all the Elders left you so soon. Oh yeah, I completely forgot about the master's message," Liu Xun said.

"What is it, Senior Brother?" he asked. 

"Since it is unlikely you will be representing Tiger Sect in the Annual sect competition, Master wants you to focus solely on improving the Hong Wu Sect's points in the competition.

"We are pretty much guaranteed to upgrade to a First Grade sect even if we fail a majority of the events, but Hong Wu Sect requires quite a lot still, so you should do it. "

"Also, don't worry about hiding your face or anything in front of the Tiger Sect. Master plans to reveal your relationship the next time you come back to the sect." Liu Xun finished speaking. 

"I see. I will do as master says," Alex replied. "Also, can you return it to the library for me brother? I completely forgot." Alex handed the book about clones to Liu Xun.

"Alright. Goodbye little brother, see you in 2 weeks." Liu Xun saw him off. 

Alex walked out of the gate and went past the busy market. 

"Hey, isn't that the new disciple?" somebody spoke.

"What new disciple?" somebody asked. 

"You know, the one from the battle yesterday," the first person spoke. 

"Hey, that's him right?" another person spoke. 

"I was there during the fight, it's definitely him," another person spoke. 

'It seems more people know of me than I had hoped,' Alex thought. He quietly walked past the market and when nobody was looking at him, he entered a quiet alleyway. He took off his yellow robes and swiftly changed into green ones.

After walking out of the alleyway now, he was a Hong Wu Sect disciple. He slowly walked back to the sect, while looking through the entire city. 

'I have never been to this part of the town, have I?' he thought. He kept looking around and finally saw something that surprised him a little. 

"Oh, so this is where it is," he thought. In front of him was a store with many people walking in and out of it. The store was quite big compared to its surroundings and was ran by young men and women wearing green robes. 

This was the Hong Wu Sect's Pill store. This was where most of the higher grade pills ended up after they were sold by the disciples. Most of the people working here were Inner Sect disciples, with a few elders behind looking over the entire thing. 

'No wonder I never saw it. It was in such a place. I never had even bothered walking this way,' Alex thought. He had heard about it from his master but had never actually seen it before. Having finally seen it, He walked towards the sect's direction and reached it very soon.
