"Woooooohhhhh!!!" The participants cheered loudly not only for Shi Li's victory, but the prowess Shi Li and Shi Shisi showed to the participants. The level of power the two of them showed did not just exceed their realms by a small margin, it exceeded it by a lot.
"Shi Li has the power of a Peak Tempering realm cultivator at his fullest?" Shi Xingtai shuddered at the thought. Shi Li only started cultivating three months ago, and within that three months, he could already fight against Shi Shisi, a cultivator who focused on his foundation, to his advantage, and still have enough power to stand among those at the Peak Tempering realm.
If Shi Shisi and Shi Kuai heard what Shi Xingtai muttered, they would definitely stare at Shi Li and look at him as if he was some sort of monster.
At a faraway seat in the arena, a man couldn't help but smile as he looked at the center stage and examined the participant left standing from the battle.
"Shi Li, within three months, not only have you started on your path of cultivation, you've also made a name for yourself within the clan. I'm proud of you," Shi Xingwan muttered as he looked at the clouds.
"Wei'er, if only you could see our son today, you wouldn't even recognize that he was the previous infamous playboy of the Shi clan."
...
Shi Xingtai asked some clan members who specialized in the fields of healing to heal Shi Shisi and Shi Kuai back to a conscious state. These clan members did what they were told and extended their hands out as a faint green light radiated from their palms and slowly integrated into the bodies of the two.
Shi Li looked at this process with curiosity and suddenly felt something heavy rest on his shoulder. He looked at his shoulder, and to his surprise, saw Moddy look at him.
"Shi Li-nya, congrats!" Moddy said as it rubbed its head on Shi Li's cheek.
"Hahaha! Thank you, thank you," Shi Li lightly chuckled as he patted Moddy's head. After a while, his eyes lightly widened as he realized something.
"Wait...I remember that you were squashed into a circle by the two of us. Where did you run off to Moddy?"
"Well-nya," Moddy blinked as it tried to recall its experience after it was squashed into a pancake, "After being squashed, I saw that you two were planning to have a fight-nya so I hurriedly reformed my body back to a sphere and ran-nya. Afterwards, I went out of the arena and looked at the trees and stuff around the clan-nya, hoping to get some sort of inspiration to progress in my cultivation technique-nya."
"Did you get any inspiration?" Shi Li asked curiously.
"Nya," Moddy nodded, "I got some inspiration on how to use nature to amplify the sound even further-nya. It's just a matter of trial and error-nya."
"I see, I see," Shi Li understood Moddy's thought process after hearing it once.
...
After twenty minutes or so, Shi Shisi and Shi Kuai's eyes slowly opened as they adjusted to the blinding light of the sun. Not long after they fully adjust, they sat up, looking at the people surrounding them and stopping their gazes at a certain person.
"Oh, Shi Li! That was a great fight," Shi Shisi grinned as he slightly winced in pain. It seemed that his injuries weren't fully stable yet.
"Shi Li, huh. Well...I lost fair and square to you. I let my arrogance take control over my rationality," Shi Kuai looked at Shi Li oddly and sighed.
Shi Li nodded and smiled at Shi Shisi before looking at Shi Kuai. "That last technique you used was definitely dangerous if I wasn't able to take advantage of your weakness. If I wasn't able to do so, I might have been 3rd place right now."
"What? My technique was that deadly to you?" Shi Kuai's eyes widened and asked in shock before wincing in pain.
"Yeah. Exchanging certain attributes in your body for a temporary increase in other attributes would definitely be a trump card for many people," Shi Li nonchalantly replied.
"Wha—" Shi Kuai's eyes widened even further and looked at Shi Li with confusion. "H-How did you know—"
"Let's just say I have my sources," Shi Li lightly smiled at Shi Kuai, to which Shi Kuai shuddered as he looked at Shi Li's smile.
"Speaking of which, do you want your technique to be fixed?" Shi Li continued.
"Eh? What do you mean?" If Shi Kuai wasn't already confused, he'd be more confused now.
"Fixing that special technique. Allowing the boost to last longer while sacrificing less...stuff like that," Shi Li said.
"What?! Tell me how to—gah!" Shi Kuai hurriedly leaned closer to Shi Li, which made him scream out in pain.
"Just send me the technique to my courtyard a week later, let's go to the center stage," Shi Li replied as he turned around, walking towards the center stage.
...
Shi Xingtai looked at the three people who were standing on stage. Two people were currently bandaged up as they grit their teeth, enduring the pain while one person was unharmed as if he didn't participate in the fights before.
"Let's move on to the prizes. For third place, Shi Kuai would get a Grade 0 Cultivation Pill and access to a Low Human grade martial technique from the library!"
"For second place, Shi Shisi would get two Grade 0 Cultivation Pills and access to a Low Human grade auxiliary technique from the library!"
"As for Shi Li..."
Shi Li heard Shi Xingtai's statement for Shi Shisi and fell into a daze as he heard that Shi Shisi was going to get an auxiliary technique.
As far as what Senior Yan told him, auxiliary techniques allowed people to surpass the limits set by cultivation and such, turning into an expert among his/her peers.
Shi Li gulped his saliva as he waited for his prize.
"For being first place, Shi Li will get three Grade 0 Cultivation Pills and access to a Low Human grade secret technique from the library!"
Damn.
Shi Li couldn't help but swear inwardly as he heard Shi Xingtai announce his prize. He didn't know what secret techniques were, but since it was given to him as he was first place, he was sure that it was gonna be a good technique for emergencies.
"For the winners, please head towards the Logistics Hall to claim your rewards at any time. That concludes the 88th Shi Clan Skin Tempering Tournament!"
...
After the usual applause for the winners, the participants went their own ways and went back to their courtyards, cultivating even harder to break through to higher realms or perhaps comprehending their martial techniques even further to attain a higher level of comprehension.
Shi Shisi looked at Shi Li and smiled. "Just come to my courtyard whenever and let's spar okay?"
Shi Kuai also looked at Shi Li and said with a smile, "I'll send the technique to your courtyard next week okay? I hope it becomes better!"
Shi Li nodded at both of them and gave them replies before leaving the arena.
...
Shi Li and Moddy walked slowly as they took in the surroundings, pondering about their next move.
"I won the tournament and all that. Now what do I do next? Cultivate even harder?" Shi Li asked Moddy.
"I don't know-nya, I'm planning to sharpen up my skills as I cultivate-nya. How about setting a goal in mind-nya?"
"Well..." Shi Li thought for a bit while walking before instantly awakening a memory hidden deep within his brain.
"Ah..." Shi Li turned solemn for a split-second before smiling afterwards, "I almost forgot my previous goal before I met you. But thanks to you, I remember my current goal."
"I'm glad-nya. What's your current goal?"
"Oh, nothing. Just killing all the members of a clan, that's all."
"That seems dark-nya, but at least you have a goal to work towards to," Moddy said as it considered Shi Li's goal.
"Yep," Shi Li nodded.
Ding!
In an instant, his pupils turned crimson red as a white screen appeared in front of his face.
