Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

Eating this pill would increase earth and ice resistance and create a Frosty mud coating over the body for ten minutes. One could also control the defensive coating with their thought to concentrate it on a certain part or into a shield.

Sasha had other works, but now, she was just watching Arkhen with her head laying on the table. A somewhat speechless expression on her face. "Aren\'t you going to rest?" she asked.

Arkhen was working non-stop for forty hours by now! Alchemy also required stamina and focus, but Arkhen never rested.

Sierra and Meya had returned as well, but they went to tour the Academy and participate in various small challenges that the academy offered.

Sasha had to stay here because Arkhen was producing potions, and she had to give him the ingredients so he could continue crafting.

He had already paid the price for those 9th-grade ingredients a day ago.

However, since Arkhen was producing high-grade and perfect-grade potions with great consistency and he also wanted to craft more potions, she decided to aid him and benefit herself as well.

After all, she would earn a lot of money after selling the potions Arkhen was crafting!

"I will not stop until I can craft class-10 potions," Arkhen said as he put the final prepared ingredient in the cauldron and put it on the lid.

He put both of his hands on the sides of the cauldron as strings of flames whirled around the pot. Arkhen closed his eyes to focus on his soul sense.

Sometimes, he increased flames, and sometimes, he decreased them.

He did that for ten minutes before opening his eyes. Opening the lid, he saw five pills lying inside the pot and smiled.

"Damn! So, he finally succeeded in perfect-grade class-7 pills?"

The room burst out in the discussion.

However, several people were confused since they had just entered the room recently.

"What? Is he something special?"

"I\'ve been here since he had crafted a class-5 perfect-grade pill. But then, he failed to craft class-6 pills and potions one time. However, he started succeeding and, in the end, crafted a bunch of perfect-grade class-6 pills and potions!"

"And the same happened when he started crafting class-7 pills and potions! He failed a few times at first, but then started producing successful products like crazy!"

Sasha smiled and waved her hand as she used her energy to pick up those five pills, "Thanks for the business again. Now we move to class 8, right?"

"Yep," Arkhen replied as he nodded with a grin and rubbed his temples a bit.

"Then you have to wait for a bit. I don\'t have as many 8th-grade, 9th-grade, and especially 10th-grade ingredients. You also seem to be a bit tired, so come with me to get ingredients and fresh air as well," Sasha said with a smile.

"Nah. I\'ll go to my girls. Just tell me when the ingredients are ready," Arkhen said as he stretched his arms and legs a bit.

"Umm, alright. Sure," Sasha said with a wry smile and left the room.

Arkhen also left the room before contacting Sierra.

Sierra—, "We are at the Obstacle Race Field. Arkhen, come quickly! You can win rewards if you cross the milestones. I already won a talent awakening stone and a passive skill awakening stone."

Arkhen was surprised. He didn\'t know this Academy had such fun things.

Arkhen—, "Sounds fun. Alright, I am coming right away."

…

Sasha went to the Central Alchemy Hall where students could buy ingredients for alchemy.

Ingredient Room no.3…

"Eh? There are no 9th or 10th-grade ingredients?" Sasha raised her eyebrows.

"Hmm, we also don\'t have some 8th-grade ingredients listed in the list you gave. Sorry, Sasha," a lady behind the big counter said as she checked the data from a blue projection. Her name was Lina.

"So, when\'s the next batch of ingredients coming?" Sasha asked.

"Next batch tomorrow. Everyone\'s buying many ingredients for practice and all because of the upcoming competition. Even though we are getting large batches of ingredients every day, they are not enough. Especially 9th and 10th-grade ingredients."

"Sasha? What\'s up?"

A man walked from behind her. He wore a silver casual suit, tie, pants, and but he was not a human male.

He had a humanoid head with slight golden fur as his beard and three whiskers. He was a leopard-like beastkin with two horns on his head.

"Cedar? I am in a bit of trouble. I need some 9th and 10th-grade ingredients. If you got some stock, I\'ll buy," Sasha said with a grin.

"Haha perfect," Cedar laughed as a glint passed deep within his eyes. "Follow me to my club\'s warehouse and choose your pick. But I am telling you, I\'ll sell you at the same price as the outside market."

"Tsk, fine. I\'ll buy it. Let\'s go," Sasha said.

Sasha walked passed Cedar, but Cadar didn\'t turn around immediately. Instead, he glanced at the lady behind the counter and used some kind of spell, "Miss Lina. Inform me when the next batch arrives."

"Sure," Lina nodded as she saw Cedar turning around as he rushed a bit to walk beside Sasha, and both of them left the room before the door closed.

However, Lina suddenly blanked out for a second and frowned. "Hmm? Was anyone here earlier?"

She felt a slight headache and decided to sleep on the couch on the left side of the room after activating the closed sign outside the room by pressing a button.

All Ingredients rooms shared the same database of a single big warehouse in the giant hall where all ingredients were stored. As such, the staff could take some rest.

…

"Yey! You can do it, brother Arkhen!" Meya cheered as she saw Arkhen in a big hologram display.

Arkhen was running up five kilometers long hill going upward with various exotic obstacles falling from the peak or manifesting some distance away from him out of nowhere.

The challengers were not allowed to use their own powers, not even the slightest of energy in this challenge.

If any obstacle touched them, they are eliminated. However, they were allowed to make use of things on the ground like a rock, bamboo shoots, and such natural things while running up.

In the end, the challenge was about reaching the peak as fast as possible… Without getting eliminated, of course.

*Roar!*

Arkhen saw a big terrible jaw with sharp teeth falling towards him. It was only a beastly jaw, nothing else on top or bottom of it.

"Hehe," Arkhen grinned as he jumped by pressing his feet on the ground for more propulsion as he passed through the jaw from its inside and continue running up as fast as possible.

With his Absolute mastery over bodily prowess. He was flexible as rubber and could make full use of his bodily prowess!

His speed of running up and dodging obstacles was superb as everyone watched him with a jaw-dropping gaze.

An old man with a long white beard sat at a chair nearby as he watched Arkhen with interest. \'A brat with absolute mastery over bodily prowess? That\'s rare.\'
