Soon, his injuries recovered. Standing up, he stretched his muscles and looked in the direction in front of him. At the moment, there were about thirty alchemists who were within a kilometer of the finishing line.

James knew that these alchemists must have had an ace up their sleeves and should be able to reach the end. If everything went as he expected, these alchemists would compete against him in the final round. Whoever emerged victorious would represent the Stardust Realm to participate in the examination of the Medicine Pavilion.

James simply waited patiently by the sidelines.

However, as a Divine Rank alchemist, he had met countless prodigies. Though James was distinguished, he was not considered the best of the best.
