That night at the demonic palace after everyone left
Supreme Elder: My Lord is that kid really stronger than me?
Cheonma: he can indeed defeat you if you don't pay attention.
Supreme Elder: so i can win against him if i use my full power from the start
Cheonma: hmm
Night passed and the day of the fight arrived. The scene of jake sleeping on his bed was visible. Birds chartered outside of his window and the ray of sunlight fell on his face.
Jake woke up while yawning and stretched his body before getting ready to go to the red rock mountain
Jake: i can't believe I will fight the heavenly demon today the strongest existence in this world.
Jake: I'm a little excited for what reward i would get from the system.
Jake slowly made his way towards the mountain. After traveling for 2 hours Jake finally reached the designated place.
Jake caught his breath after he arrived near the location.
Jake looked up only to see Cheonma standing on a plain surface up the mountain. Jake knelt and showed his respect towards Cheonma before leaping on to the mountain peak.
Jake: master thanks for accepting my request
Cheonma: hmm
Then supreme elder waved his to start the match. Immediately Jake rushed towards cheonma with his top speed
Jake's speed breaking the sound barrier like it's nothing. Jake pulled the sword out of his seath and used his skills against the monster of a man standing in front of him.
Jake: EXTREME SLASH!!!
Jake gathered all of his strength into his slash and launched it towards cheonma. Cheonma stood there still with an indifferent and caught the attack with just two of his fingers showing why he's the strongest martial artist to ever exist.
Cheonma: don't solely rely on your power to win match. Use the sword as an extended body part feel the way of the sword. Becom one with the sword
Cheonma: Union Sword!
With just one swing of cheonmas sword he leveled the very mountain they were standing on.
Even when the attack was not aimed towards Jake just the shockwave from the swing sent him flying miles away.
Jake got up bleeding heavily and muttered
Jake: this should be enough right? i just had to fight him.
[Not doing your best during the sub quest would result in failure]
Jake cursed in his mind and composed himself to fight cheonma.
Cheonma with his extremely fast speed leaped towards jake and stood in front of him.
Cheonma: would you still like to continue?
Jake: yes
Cheonma: very well. i shall give you the honor of witnessing my ultimate technique.
After saying those words cheonma covered his sword in the Demonic Qi. Flaming red Qi covered his entire sword it's aura extending beyond 10 feets
Cheonma: Ultimate Technique Demonic Judgment of Fire
Cheonmas Qi coated the entire blade making it look extremely dominating.
Jake gritted his teeth and used extreme slash and thurst together along with his veteran footwork to counterattack.
[3 of this can be combined would host like to proceed]
Jake immediately chose yes
[10 karma points would be deducted as payment]
[Congratulations Extreme Domain (A+) has been created after merging Extreme Slash (C), Extreme Thrust (C+), Footwork of a Veteran (B)]
[Random attribute has been added as your first time merge reward]
[Extreme Domain (A+) is fused with lightning attribute as a result turned into Invincible Domain (S)]
[Invincible Domain: you can create a small domain inside that domain you can freely channel lightning to boost your attack power and speed temporarily]
Jake: Invincible Domain!!!
Quickly a small area near the mountain lit up. Lightning surged through Jake's sword
Cheonma and Jake's blade collided with each other creating a shockwave that split the sky. Intense energy from the clash broke Jake's sword and Jake lost consciousness after coughing out blood.
Cheonma: it seems i underestimated you again.
Supreme Elder watched the scene his jaw dropping to the ground.
Supreme Elder: even if i used my full power against him i would still be defeated within a hour.
Cheonma waved his hands and dust rose around him signaling Supreme Elder to take Jake to his courtyard.
Several hours later Jake woke up and saw the system window
[Press yes to claim your reward]
Jake pressed yes upon seeing the pop up
[New system feature: Impression detector]
Jake: what's this?
[You can use this feature to detect how people view you]
Jake: start the detector
[Heavenly Demon has 3 star favorable impression of you]
[Sujin has 2 stars of favorable impression towards you]
[Sooyoung has 3 star of hatred towards you]
[Ancient Saint has 5 stars of hatred against you]
Jake: who's Ancient Saint?
[You can click on the pop up to see their profile]
Jake pressed Ancient Saint's pop up
[Ancient Saint (1st rate Grand Master): he's the secret master of Sooyoung who sent her to become the Heavenly Demon's successor to take the Demon Cult under his command because you are in the way of his plan he developed hatred towards you]
Jake: preposterous just because his disciple is incompetent he hates me!!.
Jake: how am i even supposed to fight against a 1st rate Grand Master he's 2 levels above me.
While Jake was pondering his situation a system nortification popped up in front of him
[Detected that host has partially completed the main mission as a reward host would be given partial control over Qi]
Jake frowned and muttered
Jake: ahh man i love this system and hate this system at a same time.
Jake then quickly claimed his reward
Jake: i can feel a different type of energy inside my body it's completely different from mana
[Would you like to combine Mana and Qi]
Jake: Yes
[Congratulations! you obtained Magical Qi]
[Your stats are evolving]
[You are now an A class hunter]
Jake: compare A class hunter to power system of this world.
[A class Hunter is comparable to a Peak 2nd Grade Grandmaster]
Jake: only partial control over my Qi made me this strong!! what if i can merge my whole Qi reserves with Mana...
Jake sat down and meditated to enhance his techniques using Magical Qi.
(After 2 Day)
[Congratulation now you can use Magical Qi to enhance your skills]
Jake got up and stretched his whole body
Jake: my back hurts already i can't believe people in Xianxia and Wuxia novels can sit straight for several years.
Jake: anyways i think it's about time i pay a visit to Sooyoung.
Jake walked out of his courtyard and yawned when suddenly he sensed someone spying on him. in a blink of an eye Jake appeared in front of the shadowy figure and held him by his throat. He tried to free himself to no avail.
Jake his eyes filled with extreme aura looked towards the unknown person. Jake unmasked his faced only to find it was Sujin
Jake: hmph! Are you a stalker? do you like me that much...
Sujin grinned awkwardly and mutterd in a cheeky voice
Sujin: i was just trying to see if you have any new moves so i could counter them in our next duel.
Yesterday when Jake and his master were talking they created a sound barrier to avoid any leakage in the conversation so he obviously didn't know what happened yesterday.
Jake sighed and released Sujin before finally departing towards Sooyoung.
