Ma Rong shook a little when she heard the question. It seemed she found the question a little too hard to answer.

"I can't tell you right now. You will find out on your own someday. You naturally finding out what is happening is the best we can hope for," she said.

Alex was now even more intrigued. 'What does she know? And why is she trying to hide it from me?' he wondered. 

"Still, Master, I can't go into cultivation knowing I might end up being late tomorrow. Why don't I just cultivate body?" he said. 

"Don't worry. Just go and cultivate. If nothing else, I can guarantee that you will wake up on time," Ma Rong said. 

"That's a lie right, Master? There have been many times when I woke up at random times," Alex said.

Ma Rong saw that the conversation was going nowhere, so she said, "If you don't wake up on time, then it will be on me that you couldn't take part in tomorrow's competition. I will take the blame. Now go and do as I say."
