Chapter 685 Fire Against Ice

• Sebastian had dreamed of building a powerful sect for years. With the elixirs he'd hoarded, he was sure he could finally make that dream real.
• But the Three Realms War was looming. Now he was torn. Should he rush everything, gather a small army trained to fight demons and monsters? Or should he wait until the war passed, then slowly shape his sect into something lasting?
• The tournament draw was about to start. Quietly, Sebastian hoped to be paired with Arturo. If that happened, he could finally use the Mindcurse on him and uncover whatever shady deal Arturo and his shadowy backer were hiding.
