《The Upgrade System》Chapter 27 - Competition
Advertisement
Eric came back to reality and got out of the pocket dimension as it was nearly the time that the elder would arrive and take him to the magical forest where he is going to farm some upgrade cards to extend his skill levels.
Eric got out of his pocket dimension and went outside to the court yard, when he got out he was meet with the elder that was here to invite him to the competition four hours ago.
Eric told the elder "Lead the way", as they elder knew what Eric meant by this started walking down the peak of the mountain and went towards a large circle of people that you could see from the peak of this mountain.
They got to the circle after 3 minutes of walking down the mountain. The moment they got close to the circle the sect members started to make a circle, not because they saw a grand come their way but the person that was behind the grand elder. The person looked the same as the person as the person that tested the strength measuring stone with a score at peak of a transcendent being.
The line that was created lead straight to where the other grand elder and the sect master was standing. The sect master saw Eric coming towards where they were, the grand master didn't want to be disrespectful to Eric so he started walking towards Eric. When he reached about 2 meters away from him he stopped and started introducing himself,
"Hello senior, I'm the sect master of this sect and would like to welcome you and thank you for becoming our 10th grand elder"
Eric looked at this old man then said, "I'M only here for short period"
The elder was a bit surprised and angered but wasn't that dumb enough to do anything as he knew he would die the moment the other person wants him dead.

He looked at Eric than said "We will now be going to the magical forest"
Eric looked at him and said "Okay"
The sect leader turned around walk to the front of the circle with eric and the other elders. When he reached the front of the circle he singled to the elder that was controlling the formation to activate it.
After s few second the formation was activated and everybody that was standing in the formation disappeared and reappeared in a different place with other people surrounding them.
The sect leader and other sect members started to walk forward but Eric just stood there and turned right and that way.
Some people behind eric thought it was the person that had scored the unbelievable number in the strength measuring test but when they saw his face they cancelled that idea as this person was to good looking.
Eric had changed his face to the one he got from upgrading his appearance and started to walk away from the group of people from the Lang sect and went into a group filled with people with different clothing.
The lang sect war cloths that were gold, and there were 3 more groups, they wear red, blue and white, which probably was their way of showing what sect they were in. As he was standing there he saw an old man wearing a white robe started talking.
"Hello fellow cultivator, today we are here to witness the competition between Xian sect, Lang sect, Rans Sect, Ghans sect ant those who those not have a sect"
"In this competition will be checking who can kill the most monsters in this magical forest, the person with the most point will win the prize for killing the most beasts"
"The reward for this competition is a super rare cultivation technique and there's a second reward, the second reward is that you can ask all the sects to grant you 1 wish and they would do it with all their power".

"The competition will start after I finish this speech"
"You can earn points by killing any monster at any level but be aware, the lower the monster's cultivation is the less point you get"
'Now I will tell you guys, how many point is a cultivation stage of a monster is worth"
Muscle Refinement = 1
Strength Refinement = 3
Qi cultivator = 9
Martial Cultivator = 27
Martial Grandmaster = 81
Martial King = 243
Martial Emperor = 729
"My speech has finished and the competition has officially started and remember you only have 2 weeks until the competition finishes".
The moment he finished his speech everybody on Eric sides started to run towards the forest, Eric started to run at his max speed and passed everybody in a second. Nobody saw Eric as they couldn't sense his presence or cultivation stage.
Eric had decided that he would start his farming again by clearing the core of the forest and slowly start to come to inner than outer. He activated his skill and started killing every monster he saw, the first monster that he killed was an eagle looking beast that had flame coming out its wings as it was flying.
Eric didn't wait that much and just used furious punch to kill the monster that was at the monarch stage.
His killing spree went on and he still hadn't met a match to his strength, as he was killing this monster his upgrade card was going up
3 upgrade cards, 753632 upgrade cards, 5756289 upgrade cards
He has now acquired 5756289 upgrade cards by just killing all the core monsters in the area.
He decided that he would participate in this competition, to see if the cultivation technique they were using any good or not.
Since he had already left with 12 days till the competition finishes he decided he would go to the outer area and wait till the competition finishes.
Eric started running towards the outer area. Eric reached the outer area in no time and was ready to go in his pocket dimension and wait for the competition to finish but as he reached the outer area he heard a voice "you can do anything you want to me but not my sister" said a young boy in black clothing. He and his sister were currently being chased by the members of Xian sect.
"Don't worry as we will be taking your sister to our young master", said one of the boys that were wearing red clothes.
The boy in red kicked away the boy and went and picked up his sister by her right hand and started to go back from where they came from.

The Everlasting. (Completed)
An Everlasting. A title given to those who have reached a state closest to godhood. Be it through might and power or through love and compassion. These beings hold great influence over the realms. This story is about Asura, a young orphaned child, who was taught the way of the blade and has mastered the Warrior Arts at a very young age. Given a recommendation by his master, Asura ventures out to broaden his horizons and to learn magic. Follow Asura’s journey and his quest to reach Everlastinghood. Comment by the author: Looking at the chapter list, you might have noticed Volume 1 is not there. The reason is that it’s in the process of being published so I’m somewhat restricted in where and how I can post it. Edit. 18/04/2017 The first volume is now officially on sale. It is no longer possible to get the first volume for free. I am sorry but it was free for a long time and it was time for it. However if you like to support me you can find th first volume here on Amazon (getBook.at/TheEverlasting) Compared to other stories on Royal Road this one is faster paced. No artificial extensions of the story by spending forever in generic constructs, like random ranking tournaments, that don’t really matter for the overall plot. That’s the plan anyway. Volumes consist roughly of 30-35k words. Additionally: I am not a native speaker, nor have I had any formal education in the English language. I am trying very hard to improve myself. If you want to help me by proofreading my story, shoot me a PM and we’ll see if we can arrange something. Other than my thanks and fake internet points I can’t offer anything, though. Yeah, poor student here… Edit 22/06/2017 Hey the story is officially ended if i ever decide to continue it will be on another date. The ending is open for anyone to use their imagination. Thank you all for the support. I hope we could meet later in the Everlasting II. Respectfully Biako

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021. Warnings: Second person is used in this work. Semi-Polished draft: Posted chapters are subject to revision as needed as things progress. Mild Profanity on occasion.
