After 6 days.
It has been 6 days since Yu Tian obtained the Chemical Badge, and everyone returned to Yun Yun's residence after wandering for a while in the imperial capital.
The day after their return, it was decided who would participate in the championship, namely Yu Tian and Zuhqing, along with Karen. As for Yun Yun and Yueru, the former did not meet the age requirement, while the latter was not of the fighting type. Therefore, the hope of victory rested on Yu Tian and Zuhqing, while Karen participated for amusement only and planned to withdraw as soon as she was in danger.
Fortunately, there wasn't much fighting as each team had to fight only five matches before reaching the quarter-finals. This was good as the quarter-finals and semi-finals were the next day, while the final and award ceremony were scheduled for the third day, which would mark the end of the martial arts tournament.
Moreover, Yu Tian wasn't too worried, as with all his abilities, it was strange for him to lose in a fight with people of similar level.
In addition to his superior combat abilities, he had acquired some combat techniques from Yun Yun, and he wasn't the only one; everyone had obtained them.
Yu Tian acquired three techniques: Wind Palm (Mortal), Wind Finger (Mortal), Wind Splitting Claw (Earth). Although they weren't very powerful, thanks to them, Yu Tian managed to comprehend the first level of the Wind Law, which was worth celebrating.
Understanding Laws was crucial as it significantly enhanced the power of techniques, besides reducing energy consumption once the Law upon which the technique depended was understood.
But the best thing was that he found a task in the mission list about winning first place in the championship.
[Name: Domination]
[Type: Optional]
[Rank: A++]
[Description: The Jia Ma Martial Arts Championship is a tournament that is held once a year, and although it is not an important tournament for the protagonist, it is an important tournament for the great power that controls the empire, as it is an opportunity to show off their strength in addition to recruiting talent.]
[Mission Objective: Winning first place and showing unprecedented talent and strength in a martial arts tournament.]
[Restrict: Get first place without being touched by your enemies.]
[Reward: 25 attribute points, Flame Mantra, random dragon bloodline, SP:300K]
Although the mission was relatively easy as he was confident of winning, he wasn't sure if he could win without being touched, which was difficult especially since he relied heavily on the Hell Suppressing Deity Physique in combat.
"I've put in a lot of effort in the past few days to change my fighting style," Yu Tian murmured with a tired smile, as he had been training day and night with Yun Yun, who helped him change his fighting style through sparring.
Seriously, it was extremely difficult as he had relied entirely on the defensive power and weight of the Hell Suppressing Deity Physique to crush his enemies completely.
Fortunately, his strength had increased in the past few days as he reached the True Profound Realm (10), and his understanding of the Heaven's First Secret Art: Heaven Consuming Technique had increased, allowing him to cultivate ten times faster than someone without a cultivation technique.
Not only that, but he didn't hesitate to use the Revolving Crescent Sun Merit Law to purify his bloodlines to increase his basic abilities, as he no longer feared others discovering he had Devil blood with True Invisibility and the ability of the Revolving Crescent Sun Merit Law to conceal his bloodline.
And the result was extremely fantastic as his physical strength and the purity of his profound energy had greatly increased, enhancing his traits.
"Stats," Yu Tian commanded mentally, as it had been some time since he last saw his stats.

[System Note: When one of the host's Attributes reaches 100 points, the host will receive a random talent associated with that attribute]
"Nice..." Yu Tian couldn't help but smile upon seeing the status screen, especially upon seeing the system note.
Frankly, Yu Tian didn't expect something like this and was excited to see the talent he would receive, as if there were no issues, his Soul would reach one hundred points today.
Yu Tian didn't know if this happened with every hundred points he added, and he wanted to ask the system, but unfortunately, it wasn't the right time as he had to head to the arena for the fight, as the first round of eliminations was about to begin.
