Wang Teng didn't leave the virtual universe, choosing to pay the Secondary Career Alliance a visit and find the prescription for the Thousand Grass Elixir first.
Back in a bedroom in his manor—the hero gradually opened his eyes. He mentally reviewed the prescription and its introduction before nodding to himself.
He had already collected the relevant herbs from the alliance; they would be sent to him the next day. All he needed to do was wait.
"Round Ball, tell me when the herbs arrive immediately," the hero requested.
"All right!" The little helper showed up and nodded. Then, it smiled and said, "The grandmasters treat you very well. They actually agreed to help without any hesitation."
"They also helped me a lot in the past. I am obliged to accept this kind gesture."
He then sat down cross-legged on the bed and started cultivating. His gains from the competition were many, so he needed some time to digest them properly.
Round Ball smiled again and disappeared.
The following morning.
Wang Teng ended his cultivation session and walked out of the room.
He received a message as soon as he was done with breakfast.
"Wang Teng, your spiritual herbs are here," said the little helper in his mind.
"Okay!"
The hero nodded and walked to the manor's garage. He grabbed a luxurious Force flying car and headed towards the Secondary Career Alliance's chapter on planet Yuming.
Governor Zhuang Weize had given him a few vehicles along with the manor.
They were the newest models of different styles and brands.
Just the rune cars alone were quite expensive.
The young overlord had to admit that the governor had a keen attention to detail. It was awfully convenient to have such an underling.
Those pricey cars were amazing to others, yet the hero saw them as ordinary modes of transportation.

The car window was lowered, revealing a pretty face. "Earl Wang, are you going out?"
"Zhuang Caixuan!" The hero was stunned. He asked back instead, "Are you looking for me?"
"Yes. My father thinks you would have a hard time finding your way on planet Yuming, so he sent me to act as your guide," she replied, her expression revealing helplessness.
"Well, it's quite thoughtful of him." The hero smiled.
"So, Earl Wang, where are you headed? Why don't I lead the way?" the young girl said.
"Sure." He nodded, not declining the offer.
"Hold on, I'll park my car and ride in yours," Zhuang Caixuan said.
She did as planned and climbed on the hero's vehicle.
"You can go ahead and drive." Wang Teng scooter to the other seat, leaving the driver's seat to her.
"You're making me drive for you?" The girl pouted. She unwillingly complied and started the engine.
"Why not? It's free labor." Wang Teng smiled. "Let's go to the Secondary Career Alliance."
"The Secondary Career Alliance?" The answer stunned her. She led the vehicle to the skies and asked, "Why are you going there? Do you want to purchase weapons or pills? My family has a decent stock. You can ask Father if you need anything."
Wang Teng glanced at her. "I'm going to make pills."
"Make pills?!" The girl was taken aback. "You're an alchemist?"
"Yes." He nodded.
"I didn't know you were an alchemist." Zhuang Caixuan was amazed.
"Your father should know," he said.
"He never told me."

She laughed awkwardly. "Haha, I only know about your martial arts achievements."
Wang Teng replied with a smile.
He didn't believe what she was saying, but he didn't care.
"What pill are you planning on making?" she asked.
"Would you understand even if I told you?" he asked back.
"Nope." She stuck out her tongue and cursed the hero in silence for being so blunt. Doesn't he know how to chat properly?
The conversation is too awkward!
The crafts alliance wasn't far from Yuming City's central district. Wang Teng's manor was in the city's best district; the place was nearby.
Thus, they quickly arrived at their destination.
The flying car descended. The governor's daughter landed in the alliance's car park.
There was a huge plaza right in front of their destination. The pair walked through the plaza and entered the alliance's lobby.
The latter was spacious, packed with people. Some were staff members, while there were some experts and others who went there to post missions.
Zhuang Caixuan sized up her surroundings curiously; she rarely visited the place.
A middle aged fellow was waiting by the entrance. His eyes lit up when he noticed the hero's arrival. He moved quickly to greet them.
"Grandmaster Wang Teng?"
"Correct!" Wang Teng nodded.
"Grandmaster!" Zhuang Caixuan was stunned. She stared at the hero with eyes like saucers.
"I'm a manager of planet Yuming's Secondary Career Alliance branch. Grandmaster Hua Yuan from the main branch told us about your request, so we've been waiting for you," said the senior as an introduction.
