If he were to continue cultivating his combat skills, he could no longer stay in the cultivation chamber. Although the chamber was good in many aspects, it was too small to properly practice his Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist or the Thirteen Demonic Strokes. Especially using the Demon-Banishing Stick, he could easily hit the chamber walls. Thus, he needed to leave the chamber and practice in a more spacious area.
When Qi Tian came out of the chamber, he saw Huang Liuyan reading a book. As soon as Huang Liuyan saw Qi Tian, she put down her book and asked, "Why did you come out? Are you hungry, or...?"
Qi Tian quickly replied, "No, Apprentice, I want to use the rest of my day to practice martial arts."
"Oh, okay then," nodded Huang Liuyan. "You've been in the chamber for nine days, straight up studying and practicing. It's too much for you right now, you need a break. Let's have a meal together, then you can leave."
Qi Tian nodded without refusal.
