I'm working now on my first job, but the client didn't open any contract or provided me an offer, we just chatted about work and I'm supposed to deliver my first batch in few hours. Is that okay or shall be other steps he should do?
Thank you.

Stop working until you were properly hired. Do you have an offer showing on your Proposals Page?
Tell the client that you will do the work once you were hired. If you are not hired, you could not get paid even if the client intended to pay you, which is doubtful.

No. Offers is 0. I already messaged him to make a contract and I'm waiting to consume working. Thank you.
Another inquiry, it is a one-hour task, should he end the contract once I deliver so that I can be paid?

You don't HAVE a contract, so there is nothing to end.

Yes, I got you first time. I mean after making the contract/offer and then I accept. When work is done and i deliver it, he will be the one to end the contract to complete the job right?

I don't think he will be offering any contract. But in general, on hourly contracts, as long as you use the Upwork tracker to track your working time, you get paid automatically according to the hours the tracker recorded.
Of course, you can't track your hours when you haven't been hired, so any time you work is unpaid...
