Mm, she had thought that I forgot about punishing her. After losing at round fifty-six, I decided to enact said punishment. Ha, the bish deserves for treating me as her ponzi scheme.

Cough, well.. This is the justification I'm going to use to get away with it. Cough.. Mm, punishment..

Yin Xia rested on her stomach, a pillow under her hips, projecting her ass into the air with a clear line of sight. I sat on her legs, sliding my fingers along her slit while giggling at the thought of chinese experiencing the first ever anal.

Haha, she was totally going to hate me come morning. I scooted up and slid into her valley below, starting off with a short thrust before I bent over her. My body switched quickly from short to long thrust as my hips arch back, my tip barely hanging in between her lower lips. I slammed home, hard enough for her body to rock forward.

“Uck..”

I chuckled as the second time I slammed home, her hand reached back and slapped at my wrist. I grabbed her hand and pulled it behind her. Not stopping my slamming motions, but I did switch it up to let her arm rest in a more natural position.

I rested on her thighs as I wiped the sweat off my nose.

“You are so going to enjoy this.”

I chuckled and she twisted slightly to look at me.

“I hope you enjoy this because there is another money making competition coming up called Hidden dragons and Tigers.” Her lips twisted into a sarcastic grin.

I rolled my eyes and pressed my palm into her back, putting her back on her face. This time I didn’t alternate between soft and hard methods. I wanted to hear her cry out to me. I wanted to bathe in the fact she submitted wholly unto me.

I peeled back her cheeks and my flames swept into her anus, making sure it was clean before I dipped my hand in a bowl of oil. I pulled out and rubbed the oil along my shaft before pushing the tip into her backdoor.

A smile crept onto my face as she clenched the sheets. Her feet instantly shot up when I pushed my hips forward, my thumb ensuring I would get as much mass I could into her backdoor. I gripped her hair as I leaned down, my hips fully pressed into hers.

“See, I told you. You would feel good.” I whispered into her ear. “Oh, yeah. Didn’t you say something about some tournament about hidden dragons? What do you think of my hidden dragon.”

I giggled as I arch my hips back and rocked them forward. I could hear her gasp as I struggled into a comfortable movement. I pushed off her back and fisted the covers as I tried to thrust harder, however, her hips started moving with mine.

Haha, she was smart.

To be fair though, I didn’t last all that long and I couldn’t even move as much as I wanted to. Porn made anal look so easy but by god, it was anything but.

***

It is almost the end of the month and the competition of hidden dragons is scheduled to begin. I somehow got talked into fighting for it. I guess I could be an imbecile too.

Yin Xia sat gently on the bench, if one wasn’t aware of the situation. They might have thought she was some young lady of a big family, with how elegantly she sat.

“I heard there are only seven people you have to worry about., Song Jiang from the Song family, sword cultivator and peak golden Core. Guo Zemin from the Guo family, he also uses a sword but he cultivates some kind mysterious scripture. Sun Min, is a disciple of Seven Kills Sect. He uses a saber. Zhan Feng is from the Zhang Dynasty family but offshoots, he is famous for his palm techniques.”

Yin Xia gestured at each one of these people as she spilled the only facts she deemed useful.

“Shen Chang is from Celestial Red Mountain Sect, he uses fist techniques. Fu Yijun is a sword cultivator, not very impressive. Cai Shun is the weakest of the group and uses a spear. You should be able to get into the top five and get the rewards easily.”

Yin Xia said this like she wanted to add something on, ‘Don’t make my sacrifice be in vain or you won’t touch me again.’

I rolled my eyes and began cultivating until it was my turn. No need to pay attention to the useless speech and ceremony. It really didn’t take long before the actual fighting started.

My first opponent came on stage in a flamboyant kind of way. Jumping from his sitting area and walking across the air. He had a haughty look and held a sword by the sheath, choking up on the hilt.

“You should…”

Another talker, great.

I rushed him and he hastily pulled his sword out of his sheath. My sword is still resting in the sheath as I appeared four paces in front of him. His eyes widened in confusion before he sniggered and took a step forward, throwing his blade out in front of him as if he planned to skewer me.

I clicked my tongue as my body shifted like a phantom, my right hand quickly took hold of the hilt and drew it in one clean arc.

Due to the no killing rule, my blow only left a red line on his neck as I skipped a meter backwards.

The guy looked at me confused as he stumbled to a stop and touched his neck. His eyes had turned red with anger and he was about to make a mistake of his life, had the referee not dragged him out the arena with a simple wave of his hand.

“Match goes to Quinn. Please step down.”

I turned around and the guy glared at me as I dropped into the seat.

Yin Xia leaned over and giggled. “Looks like you made that spoiled young master upset.

I barely closed my eyes and entered meditation when my name was called for again. This time my opponent is a guy who utilized a bow. I crinkle my eyes and drew my hand into a circle and flames followed, forming a perfect circle. I pushed through the middle just as my opposition shot six arrows looking like hawks diving.

I don’t think he even realized what happened until the Referee waved his hands and he jerked out the arena.

“Match won, Quinn.”

I turned around and left with a smirk on my lips.

“Why did you kick me out? He didn’t even make an attack!” sore losers yelled.

The Judge stood up and announced the explanation.

“Your opponent utilized a demonic technique which would have turned your heart into ashes had the referee not interfered. If you find the result not to be lacking, then we can have the young man perform it again so that you can experience what it feels like.”

The loser's face turned pale and he bowed, running back to his sitting area with solemn expression. He still glared at me like I should have used fair means to go against an archer.

I dropped my ass on the chair when my name was called again. My opponent's name sounded familiar though, Zhan.. Zhan.

I got onto the stage and ha, it made sense now, Zhan Feng. He is like a counterpart to me, but in the Zhang Dynasty Elite force at the age of twenty-six. He made a great achievement recently due to clearing up a rebellious sect.

The referee turned to me, “You can’t have an Ethereal Heart or you are instantly disqualified.”

I nodded and Zhan Feng rushed me. I formed six hands signs and petals rolled from my feet and swept towards him like a tornado. Zhan Feng hurried and jumped to the side but said that tornados only went one way.

Zhan Feng slammed his palmed towards the fire tornado with a trace of sweat beading down his face.

“Six Directions Palm. First movement Spring wind under Moonlight.”

I didn’t catch a glimpse of his amazing palm technique that tore my fire tornado asunder because I had already appeared at his side. My shealth sword stabbed towards his heart.

Zhan Feng’s head turned slowly before he was hit. I could see the strangeness in his eyes as he flowed backwards.

“Match Won, Quinn.”

I clicked my tongue and walked away. This is supposed to be an exciting event, right? Maybe one of the other seven will give me a scare. Haha, scare me.

The next fights weren’t even worth mentioning. I think that underground fight club really helps to even out my flaws.

The first day ended and tomorrow would be the finale. I couldn’t wait, the easiest money I ever made. Speaking of which, what is the prize reward for the top five? I never even asked.

Oh well.

Next day came like a blast of a cannon. I bounced on my feet like a boxer showcasing he was ready to put down a can of whoop ass.

My first opponent turned out to be the first name Yin Xia called out, Song Jiang. He gave me a feeling that I hadn’t felt before. Like he could just wave his hand and I would die.

It turned out that is, indeed, the case. His sword is unfathomable and I struggled so hard just to last more than twenty blows before he sent me out the ring.

Extremely embarrassing! Utterly embarrassing!

It’s a good thing that I didn’t talk like some people do. Mm, imagine if I had boasted of my powers and couldn’t even hold a candle to slim pickings of a guy looking like my older sister or something.

Can I even be called a man after that? Cough, well boy.. But fuck..

I dropped down and just about to meditate on my loss when Yin Xia leaned over.

“That’s super embarrassing. All that superiority you showed yesterday and you got knocked down super fast in the finale. You can only lose one more match before your results don’t even matter.” she giggled, “I hope you don’t let me down.”

I rolled my eyes and focused on understanding his sword strikes. Thinking of a way to counter them but I think the difference is in techniques. All the demonic techniques I learned from Heavenly Sins are killing or torturing techniques. There aren’t any techniques meant for weapons as the body of the sinner has to be incredibly strong to bear the tribulations.

Thus any method I want to use will be banned as demonic techniques. I can only rely on palm and finger arts and my understanding of the sword basic techniques. Besides, I think my perception is the best among the young generation.

The rest of my matches weren’t as difficult as the first. They were indeed challenging but that’s the extent of it. It seems there is a huge gap between number one and number two.

I dropped down as the final fight happened and they were going to tell the placement after. Yin Xia leaned over and whispered into my ear, her hot breath sending waves of desire down my spine.

“Ask to take part in the Fire God Inheritances. It will be extremely beneficial to you and your power will rocked to the extremes.”

I nodded, not questioning why she knew about this but it didn’t matter.

The judges led us to a palace in the sky, without a blink the large gate opened and we walked in. All three of us who made it to the top three. When I entered, I found myself in an entirely different room. No, I found myself standing alone in a grand empty room that looked similar to something from the Marco Polo series.

A golden fabric leading to four steps that a throne rested upon. Pillars lined each side, rising into a dome ceiling depicting fiery scenes that left one blood boiling with pride and awe.

Biting my lip, I felt an overwhelming power that brought me to my knees. I didn’t try to struggle against it but relaxed. Waiting for that moment whoever showed up, would relax their guard.

That would be the perfect time to strike.

“Welcome to the Nine Realms Celestial Palace. You are a lucky young man to be able to bypass many traditional trials and gain a chance to be accepted by inheritance of one of the founding Gods.”

The voice boomed in my head, making me wince. I glanced around but didn’t see anything.

“Tell me what kind of inheritances do you believe you are capable of fighting for?”

What the hell? You didn’t even tell me what kind of inheritances were there.

I thought about bullshitting and making up one but Yin Xia words came back to my mind.

“Fire God.”

There were brilliant flashes of light and I found myself in an environment that looked entirely red. Like the end of the world had happened and the only thing left was lava, fire tornados, the sky set ablaze, and a sea of flames.

“Reset your cultivation by taking the red pill. Or try your luck with the blue pill. How far you go depends on how much you are willing to sacrifice.”

Oh, is this like one of those Indiana Jones moments? Do I solve a riddle and gain wealth out of my imagination?

I walked up to the podium on the only piece of land that wasn't on fire. I thought about it for an entire second before grabbing the red pill. If my father was here, he would have told me to start from the beginning as the more challenging something was to get. The better you felt doing it. Wait, I could have remembered that wrong.

Haha, I probably did.

I swallowed the pill and the effects turned out to be instant. Other than the power of my flesh, my core dissolved and the mixed essence in my body flowed out of my powers like I was some shadow creature in a movie.

Before I had time to lament on how weak I am, I appeared inside of a classroom. The teacher wasn’t explaining anything. Behind him was a pillar with red letters etched onto it. I walked up to it and began to read it and quickly understood it’s the scripture.

I wished to tell you that some amazing things happened. Like that I became overpowered, flames shooting here, laughter ringing there. I became unrivaled under the heavens.

Hoho, no. sadly, that would have been awesome if it had happened.

What did happen is that they left me alone until I broke through into the core formation realm. Then I attended a strict regimented class, where I fought on this table surrounded by fire and the instructor beat my face in while teaching me palm, legs, and body movement techniques.

When I wasn’t getting my face smashed in, they taught me tactical formations, war formations consisting of a large group of people, followed by every day formations.

Then into alchemy, learning of flora and recipes to blend these into pills and elixirs. Followed by what I would never have taken as something considerable as combat training, music, sculpting, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and this thing called dancing.

You might think, this isn’t all bad. They are turning me into a super soldier. I will be the elite of the elite, who will bow before me!

Hoho, have you ever sat in math class or english and they are teaching you a dry course in a dry voice. You have to struggle to stay awake. Well, it was exactly the opposite for me. They were beating me when I lost focus, they beat me morning or night, anyway. They did this to me for what felt like five years.

When I went into this realm, I was at the peak of Golden Core. When I came out, I turned out to be in an entirely different realm. No, I could kill thousands of old me and not even get winded upon killing another thousand. I left as sixth stage Nascent Soul expert.

It felt amazing to not wake up getting my ass kicked. It felt almost heavenly. First thing I would do, hehe, visit Yin Xia all day for three days.

The fellows that took us to the palace return us to the square of the city we fought in. They left right after. I decided to make haste and leave as well as I am sure that quite a bit of time has passed and the bandits I was sure would attack that particular convoy might have done it already.

However, the moment I took a step towards the main road, a group of soldiers with spears surrounded me. In no way, did they scare me or put fear in my soul. First of all, this wasn’t Earth where soldiers with guns were life-threatening. Secondly, they were far weaker than me before I entered the palace. After, ahaha, jokes.

A man in golden robe with tiger etch onto his shoulder broke the circle. He glared down at me with a haughty look that left me with a stomach of distaste.

“Young man, I don’t know how you managed to enter our sacred ritual but you better cough up what you stole.”

My brows furrowed as I tried to make sense of what he was saying. Is he saying that not just anybody could take part in this competition? Or that he is attempting to steal whatever I acquired from the palace?

I looked at the other two to see that Song Jiang had a new sword and the other guy felt like he was at the peak of the golden core. I know I gained an inheritance so didn’t they also gain the same? Or did they go through a different trial than I did?

While I did gain something, it isn’t tangible. I can’t just cough out knowledge, that would take ages. I might be young but I ain’t that young.

“I don’t have anything like what they received. At most, I acquired scripture and some pills that they made me take on the spot.” I shrugged and stated.

The man frowned before waving his hand, “Kill him, then search him.”

Wow, what a respectful robber.

The soldiers rushed forward, their blades aim at my vitals as if they were going to run me through.

I waved my hand and a blast of heat tore through them. Aye, that’s the wrong word, too gentle. The heat melted their flesh and set fire to their clothes, their weapons and armor became red hot like it was just taken out of the furnace.

I turned to the haughty man who pulled out his sword without further ado.

‘Great, he wasn’t a talker.’ I lamented in my soul.

“Nascent Soul? You think you are the only one? How foolish! After I kill you I will..” He didn’t stop speaking as he walked forward.

Sadly, I didn’t like talking to people I had to kill. The Military taught me to just kill first.. Cough, identify the danger first, then kill.. Look, he had a sword in his hand, I felt his killing intent. I had justification to put him down. Enough said.

I drew a circle and clenched my hands in the center of said circle. Grasping Ethereal Heart!

The haughty man's eyes widened as he spit out blood. He dropped to his knees as he clutched his chest. His face bounced off the cobblestone and he spit out a final spurt of blood.

I shook my head and searched them for a coin purse. Well, the haughty man had a nice ring, but no coin purse. I took the ring and rushed to the inn that I formerly stayed at. I wanted to know how Yin Xia knew about the Fire God Inheritances..
