Overcoming The Beast

Before entering the town Leon wore a hood to hide his hair. He then took out the mask broke the top off. He then tore off some cloth from extra clothing he carried around. He tied the cloth around his eyes and wore the mask over the lower half of his face. No one would be a able to see the big changes.

He had the Frost snake snake into his hood and hide in it. While he unsummoned the Tiger. He then used the Formless Aura art to make it look like he was a peak Summoning teacher level cultivatior.

He couldn't see but he used his soul energy to sense the surrounding. He also used the Frost snake to tell him what was happening around.

Leon went around asking when the clan competition was. He found out that it would be happening tomorrow in the morning. Leon quickly went towards the Auction house.

He really needed to win the Clan competition as the winner was allowed to enter the main treasury and take an item of their choosing. He was sure breaking in would be much harder now after last time. Then breaking the shields protecting the objects was impossible with his current strength.

In the Sunset auction he found Willem. Willem couldn't tell it was Leon this time. Leon had hidden his voice properly. Last time he had purposely done it badly so he could explain the use of the VIP token. He didn't plan on using it now. He used the respect he got as a summoning teacher cultivator.

Willem was respectful. He introduced himself and asked what Leon wanted to buy.

Leon have a straight forward answer. "I want every thing you have that can increase cultivation."

Willem stopped "Sir that is almost fifty percent of all objects we have for sale. Pardon me for being rude but I don't think you can afford that."

"Just give it to me I'll decide weather I can afford it or not."

"Well sir I'll tell you the most effective of those resources. We have the blood clear pill. Able to help cultivators break to the next level. But also can help purify Bloodlines of Beast and cultivators..."

"I said give me everything. This should be enough for most of them I'll give the rest when you given me an exact number."

Willem looked in the bag. He said "Very Well, then Faye get everything."

A few minutes later Leon left the Auction house with everything in his spatial ring. The only problem was he was completely out of money. He probably had around a hundred gold left.

Leon couldn't go home looking like this so he went an inn that had an open room and used the last of his money to rent it out for the night.

In the room Leon sighed. "They had more then I expected at the Auction house. Even after I haggled for so long he still didn't lower the price that much."

Leon sat down on the bed and started cultivating formless aura. The snake also helped him as he was still hidden in his hood. He couldn't summon the tiger as the room was too small. Leon gave the snake some NetherWorld ice and started stuffing him self with everything he bought.

First he started with pills, some were pills he had already eaten some were new. There hundreds of them and Leon are like a machine. He then moved on to fruits. There were around ten fruits of different elements. He just ate all of them for the energy as formless aura didn't need a specific element when cultivating. And finally he took out a bottle this was what cost most of his money and brought all his calculations to waste because he hadn't expected the Auction house to have it. It was a drop of low rank Soul Dew.

Soul Dew was the purified condensation of Soul energy. It was able to easily help cultivators gain a level. But the energy must not be underestimated. One drop was able to level up a level one summoning apprentice to summoning scholar using only the energy from the soul dew.

Leon drank it and it broke him out of the bottle neck. The formless aura energy looked more mysterious and misty. Leon used the extra energy to force a break through to level Four summoning apprentice as well.

"I reached Formless Body." Leon got up and took everything that covered his face off. The misty white formless energy covered him and then dissipated. His eyes, hair, skin all went back to the way they were. Even his height had shrunken a little to what it was before the ice cave.

Leon looked outside the window and saw that it was already morning. He left the inn and went to clan running as fast as he could.

He ran to the same open area where the lectures were held. Over there a whole big stage with one ring was built. An old man was standing as referee and many parents were standing around supporting their child.

Leon found what number he was, number 57, and went towards the audience to watch the match.

On the stage. Two people were having there summoned beast fight. The referee was the clan elder Loic he announced "number 34 wins!"

Loic was not someone Leon had really met in this life or his last. He was elder so he had seen him meet with the clan head though. He had however heard rumors about him from Eos as she liked to converse when they trained together in his past Life. She had said that Loic was a nice old man that was very docile and friendly.

This will be perfect he won't judge unfairly and I'll win quickly. I was hoping I wouldn't have to go through the unnecessary trouble of having to fight the referee.

"number 48 vs number 57!"

Leon went up to the stage.
