The 2013–14 season saw Tempest make fourteen appearances for the club under the management of Chris Kiwomya and Shaun Derry.[13] During the season, he provided two assists: one was against Crewe Alexandra, in a 4–0 win on 5 October 2013[14] and another was against Oldham Athletic on 29 October 2013.[15]

On 26 September 2014, Tempest joined Boston United on loan for a month.[16] He then had his loan at Boston United extended until 27 December 2014.[17] He made his return to his parent club after making fourteen appearances and scoring once against Lowestoft Town for Boston United.[18][19] Shortly after, Tempest re-joined Boston United for the second time, until the end of the season.[20]
