Krune looked at those two and decided to talk himself.

"Hello, my name is Jolk."

As mentioned before, both Feifei and Krune would take part in this Competition, hiding their own identities. So Krune went with the name of a person he had met a long time ago.

Julian was just about to ask his relation with Feifei when suddenly, he noticed that Krune was using an Alchemist symbol on his clothes.

"Are you going to participate in the Alchemist's Junior Competition?"

Krune nodded.

"Yes, since both Formations Master and Alchemist competitions will happen in Anach, Feier and I decided to go together."

Binou, who had been just hearing, decided to go direct to the point.

"What's the relationship between you and Hana?"

Although Wulia Feier was Feifei's alias here in the Dalin Universe, only Krune's group knew about it. So for everyone else, her real identity is really Wulia Feier. Since she agreed to have her identity hidden in this Competition, she had to once again change her name, which is now Hana Feli.

Krune smiled and then said.

"I'm her fiance."

Krune said that without the least bit of embarrassment on his face. If he can say that even in front Wang Mei, let alone some weaklings around the same cultivation level as him.

Julian snorted and asked.

"Do you even have the qualifications to say that?"

Julian turned to Feifei and said.

"Hana, have you not noticed that he is a demon beast in human form? You shouldn't waste your time with someone like him."

Feifei narrowed and was just about to talk when suddenly, someone intervened.

"I don't know what your Formations Master Organization is thinking to talk like this with our members. Do you think that you are some big shit or anything like that? Why would a member of our Alchemist Organization not be worthy of this girl?"

The one who talked was surprisingly Yilio, the other member of the same Branch as Krune, who was participating in the Junior Alchemist Competition.

Julian looked at the new comer and couldn't recognize him. But it was different for Binou.

"Yilio, why are you getting involved in this? It has nothing to do with you."

Yilio looked at Binou and smiled.

"You are wrong, Binou. Jolk is a member of my Alchemist Branch, so it has everything to do with me. I might as well tell you this, although his Alchemist Rank is smaller than mine, his talent is definitely higher."

Binou was taken aback. He and Yilio had known each other for quite some time, so he knows that Yilio is quite a straightforward guy who didn't like to play around. If he said that Jolk has a higher talent than his, then it is most likely the truth.

"Since when did your Alchemist Branch have someone like him?"

Yilio laughed and answered.

"That is not for your concern. Besides, from what I can tell from this interaction, I can tell that your Formations Master Branch had also found someone interesting. Could it be that this girl is someone good at formations?"

Binou knew that there was no point in denying since Wulia Feier would also be taking part in their Formations Competition.

"Yes. Hana's situation is the same as your friend. Her rank is lower, but her talent far surpasses mine. That's why we don't want her to get involved with no one else other than the members of our Organization Branch. It should have been the same for you, too, don't you think?"

Feifei and Krune looked at each other and then laughed after hearing that. That puzzled both sides, though.

Feifei, or better, Hana was the first one to talk.

"If that's the case, I might as well leave the Formations Organization."

Krune followed right behind.

"Yeap, I won't mind leaving the Alchemist one either. After all, both side occupations are something that we are doing just to gather Spirit Stones. If to stay there, we need to go separate ways, we would rather leave the Organizations behind and think about something else to do."

Both Binou and Yilio were taken aback. They didn't know that Formation and Alchemy were worthy so little in their eyes. Julian, on the other hand, got nervous instead. If Wulia Feier decides to leave their Branch because of him, Supervisor Hulio will eat his heart alive!

Yilio didn't mind what Krune said since he wasn't against it from the very start. But Binou was different, and it would be quite troublesome to explain if Feier decided to leave the Branch out of nowhere.

Yilio looked at Krune, or better, Jolk, and said.

"Don't worry, whether you two get together or not means nothing to us. I just don't like how Binou said that you are not worthy of Hana."

Binou narrowed his eyes and said.

"Whatever, the Junior Formations Master Competition is close, so I won't bother with it for now."

He thought that since he and Wulia Feier are in the same Branch, he will have a lot of time to convince her to leave that guy called Jolk.

Julian also didn't have much to say and followed. Different from Binou, he really can't afford the consequences of Feier leaving their Branch.

When the two were gone, Krune looked at Yilio and said.

"Thank you for your help."

Yilio shook his head.

"Just make sure to concentrate on the Competition. I wasn't lying when I said that your talent is higher than mine, so I believe this is going to be a good experience for you."

Krune smiled and nodded.

The long-distance teleport formation is activated every three hours, so Krune and the others had to wait for it. When the time finally arrived, he and everyone else going to Anach stepped on it. With a flash of silver light, everyone disappeared.

In the center of Anach City, one of the various long-distance teleport formations activated, and soon after, Krune's group appeared with everyone else.

As soon as they arrived, Ramon was there to receive Krune and Yilio. As the Alchemist Branch Supervisor, he had to come earlier to complete the procedures for his participants.

"Oh, I see you brought some friends together. Are you three following Jolk?"

Feifei and Tiane shook their heads. Feifei then looked at Krune and said.

"I will be going ahead since my competition site is somewhere else. Tiane will be going with me, too. Once you get some time free, send me a message."

Krune nodded and looked at Ruik.

"Are you going with the two girls or coming with me?"

Ruik pondered a bit and decided to go with Krune for now. He was just here to watch the fun, so it didn't matter which one he followed.

Krune gave Feifei a kiss, and they went their separate ways.

Ramon, who was guiding everyone, asked Yilio about Feifei with a Divine Sense message. Yilio then explained the little bit that he knew, which surprised Ramon.

"Isn't Binou a member of that Formations Master Branch close to our building? If I'm not wrong, he is the one with the highest Formations Master Rank under 35 years old from that place. Did he really say that that girl has higher talent than him?"

Yilio nodded.

"I was also surprised. I've known Binou for quite a few years already, so I know that he is quite proud. For him to say something like that, this Hana girl must really have an astonishing talent for Formations. Of course, this means very little for our Alchemist Organization anyway."

Ramon nodded.

"Well, that is true. Anyway, as long as it doesn't impact your or Krune's performance, we have nothing to do with it. If anything, I'm quite happy to see that a wisp like him was able to conquer such a talented human girl. Haha!"

Krune didn't know about what Ramon and Yilio were talking about, nor did he care. His mind at the moment was only thinking about the Elemental Path Stone that he will get after all of this is over.

'I hope that that thing also works with my Elemental Meridians.'

After arriving at the Alchemist competition site, Ramon brought Krune and Yilio to apply for their working stations. During the Competition, you can only rely on your skills. All the materials, cauldrons, and any other working tool will be provided by the Solar System Alchemist Headquarters. That is to guarantee that everyone would be at the same level.

Ruik noticed that it would take some time and decided to go somewhere else.

"I already know where you will be staying, so I will pass by there this night. I will take a look around since I have nothing better to do."

Krune nodded, he indeed had no reason to keep Ruik close by anyway.

Since there were a lot of participants, Krune and Yilio had to wait with Ramon until their time for registration came.

One of the employees in charge of making the registrations then looked at Ramon's group and said.

"Next."

Ramon then brought Krune and Yilio forward.

"Name and Rank."

Yilio came forward first.

"Yilio, Eight Silver Stars Alchemist."

Ramon was surprised to hear that and asked with a Divine Sense message.

"Did you advance in rank?"

Yilio nodded.

"Yes, I was already very close to making a breakthrough. So I used the last two weeks to give the final push. Still, I just barely reached this level, so I'm not very confident in controlling this level."

Ramon shook his head.

"That is not a problem, the fact that you went up a level is a motive to celebrate anyway."

The employee then brought out something like a crystal ball and said.

"Put your hands on it for the age check."

Yilio followed the orders and put his hand on the ball.

-Core Formation Realm, 8th Stage. Bone Age, 33 Years old.-

The employee nodded and passed Yilio an electronic token.

"Your working station is the 5781st one. The Competition starts at 11 AM tomorrow, so be sure to be in your working station before that. Anyone late will be automatically disqualified."

Yilio nodded and returned to Ramon's side.

Krune was the next one.

"Jolk, Six Silver Stars Alchemist."

Krune then did the same thing as Yilio, but surprisingly, the information given was different.

-Core Formation Realm, 6th Stage. Bone Age, impossible to determine.-

The employee and everyone else around got puzzled.

Soon, Ramon understood the issue.

"Oh, right! You are a wisp, the bone age check doesn't work on you."

The employee also understood when he heard that, but he was still surprised to see that a wisp came to participate. He then took a blood contract out of his spatial ring and wrote a few things on it.

The contract simply stated that Krune had to tell the truth when he asks how old he is. There was no punishment written since it was just a truth test.

Krune understood. Since he isn't a Divine Soul Realm expert, blood contracts still worked. Krune signed it without thinking. The contract then burned down, and a seal was put on Krune's soul.

"Very well, how old are you?"

"I'm 12 years old."

Immediately, the other competitors went silent, the employees went silent, every single being who heard that went silent. The only exception was obviously Yilio and Ramon.

The seal on Krunes soul then disappeared right after, which proved that he was talking the truth since his contract terms were completed.

"Holy shit! A 12 years old Six Silver Stars Alchemist!"
