Chapter 18 - Annual Heavens Selection!

**I see you're all brawn and no brain, someone with greater potential has greater strength. However, since you have more potential than expected thanks to your bloodline; you're limit has grown.** Leo said

 

"That's good and all, but how much stronger does it make me?" Leon said, focusing only on his strength and disregarding all the so-called talent he possessed.

 

**A lot stronger, thanks to the extra Qi, you have thicker meridians! In simple terms, more Qi equals larger meridians. So all of your meridians will be 4 times as thick when you open all 36!** Leo proclaimed excitedly

 

"That's a good upgrade... I'll have 144 meridians worth of strength soon. That's equivalent to a Foundation Realm Cultivator with a Foundation of 72!" Leon's eyes lit up as he finished speaking

 

"Something's here." He said as he pulled out another iron blade from his inventory, scouting the dense forest he saw a group of red eyes lock onto him

 

**Foundation Realm Beasts, 15 of them. Have fun, Leon!** Leo shouted encouragingly as he conjured up a bag of popcorn to watch the show

 

Leon leaped into the forest without hesitation, shocking the pack of hyenas hiding in the bushes. With his profound strength, every strike of his took the life of a beast!

 

In a few minutes, he was done dealing with the pack of predators who in his eyes were delicious prey.

 

"Status!" He yelled as he hoisted himself up by thrusting his sword into the ground, although he wasn't actually tired; he just felt like a protagonist would do something like that.

 

The dark panel appeared once more, giving him a touch of happiness.

"Two breakthroughs with one harvest. Say, Leo, you wouldn't happen to be able to give me a map of all the prey in this Dimension, would you?" Leon egged Leo to spill the secrets, thinking of a devious plan to speed up his cultivation even more.

 

**You do realize some of the beasts in this Dimension can destroy your world with a finger right? Don't be too arrogant yet. I'll give you the map you're looking for, it's a feature in the system anyway. You just don't explore enough, cultivation maniac.**

 

As Leo finished speaking, another panel appeared front of Leon showing a vast forest labeled with a number of different coloured dots.

"Well, that's straightforward as hell." Leon thought as he rushed towards the closet blue dot near him. Noticing a huge brown bear, 4 meters tall he instantly turned around and walked away.

 

"Damned system, at least tell me how strong the beast is in their Realm!" Leon sighed

 

**You're the idiot here. The brighter the dot, the stronger they are.** Leo said in disdain for such a dumb owner

 

Leon was about to retort when he focused on the map prompt once more and saw a note in the corner explaining what Leo had just said.

 

"Curse you," Leon mumbled as he headed towards the dimmest blue dot.

 

In close to an hour, Leon had successfully broken through once more. Most of the time is taken up by traveling.

 

"Status," Leon said

"That's about all I can do for today, it's time to go back home." Leon smiled as he teleported back to the Heaven Palace.

 

Looking around he noticed it seemed rather empty, it was usually busy with maids running around but it seemed eerily quiet today.

 

His senses improved as he got stronger so he quickly felt two strong Aura's in his father's office. One being his father and the other about as strong as his Fathers felt unfamiliar.

 

He moved closer to the office, masking his presence using his Heavenly King's Aura.

 

"You must understand Rodrig, though your son was in the right, he ruined the face of the Grand Elder by almost killing his disciple. Now how am I supposed to calm his anger? He's about to break through to the Nascent Soul middle state, he'll soon be at our level." A man's voice escaped the room, sounding serious yet filled with malicious intent.

 

"Don't play games with me, I don't have time for this. He lost, fair and square. Your Elder disciple lost to someone who had been cultivating for a day! How does it feel? But no, I won't be punishing Leon or asking him to apologize. You aren't worthy" Rodrig said as he increased the pressure of his Aura on the man in Infront of him.

 

"I believe in the saying "actions speak louder than words". I'll show you how it feels. I wonder if the oh-so-great Leon will compete in the Annual Heavens Selection?" The Sect Master tried provoking Rodrig

 

"Of course not, I wouldn't want all of your precious disciples to suffer the same fate as the Elder's." Rodrig replied calmly, obviously knowing that Leon couldn't compare to the Foundation Realm Cultivators taking part in the competition.

 

"Oh? Is that right? My daughter will be taking part in the competition, a rumor has spread that she will get engaged to the winner of it's not her of course. I can confirm that this rumor is the truth, would you like Leon to miss this chance?" The sect Master used the common tactic of bombardment.

 

Before Rodrig could reply, a young voice replied to the Sect Master at the door "I'll participate don't worry, but when I win I won't be marrying your daughter so second place can have her." Leon said domineeringly.
