"I did it, finally," Theo murmured and realized that he had somehow expelled some impurity through his pores.
"!"
Theo enveloped himself in soap bubbles and then dried himself with a hot wind. The process left him feeling refreshed.
'When I use on those who are in the Monarch Spiritual Realm, I think I will have to share the energy essence with the girls. If not, it could be risky.' Theo saw the effect that some cultivators who were in the Spiritual Realm made it overflow with spiritual mana. If he had to deal with even denser mana, it would be difficult for him to stabilize.
'I could also wait until I arrive at the Monarch Spiritual Realm,' Theo said mentally.
While thinking about these things, Theo was surrounded by the people he loved most in this world. He looked at them with great love and affection. Hugging the cute Little Yui, he also motioned for Little Emma, the daughter he adopted, to come over and hug him as well.
Little Emma was very happy in her heart. She lived a long time without a father and missed having a father. Furthermore, she was far from her mother, which made her become even more attached to Theo.

While a little more than a day had passed within the [Dimensional Room], the tournament had only spent a little over an hour. Everything was very busy, especially with the VIP guests from all corners of the world that were arriving.
The most incredible thing was that all of them, although very powerful, were being incredibly respectful of Sakura, which made many think how influential Sakura's master truly was. Even the Emperors of Fallen Star Island received little respect from these cultivators so it could be said that it was a very incredible thing that this was happening. In normal cases, they would not even have a chance to talk to these people who were at the height of the world.
A man with red hair and red eyes, 205 cm tall, very muscular, and wearing golden armor with a powerful aura smiled friendly at Sakura when he asked, "How is Waru?"
Sakura replied to him with a graceful smile, "Mr. Apollo, my Master is fine. Thanks for asking."
Apollo was a powerful man, almost reaching the Monarch Spiritual Realm. And he was a battle fanatic. Whenever he saw someone strong, his blood would boil and he almost always made up an excuse to fight them. But here he still acted respectfully, even with Sakura who was only on the 10th Layer of the Spiritual Realm.
"I understand, I understand. That's nice, hahahah." Apollo laughed out loud and made the earth shake, emitting a dominant aura that made it difficult for those close to him to breathe.
"Oh, sorry, sorry..." Seeing that the surrounding people were having trouble breathing, Apollo scratched his head awkwardly. He retracted his aura and bowed slightly while apologizing with a friendly smile.
'Perhaps he is different from what the rumors said about him...' Emperor Naga thought.
The rumors said that Apollo was extremely aggressive and difficult to deal with. Many feared him for his monstrous strength and his high control over flames. They said that his Noble Spirit was a replica of the sun, and because of that, he came to be called Apollo.
"Tsk, Apollo..." A relaxed-looking man with dead-fish eyes let out his disgust when he noticed Apollo.
"Oh, little Railander, how have you been?" It seemed that Apollo didn't even register Railander's displeasure.
Railander pursed his lips and said, "I'm fine... I didn't expect to see you here too, Apollo."
"Hahaha. How could I miss this?" Apollo laughed out loud again to everyone's discomfort. "I heard that there is a very talented person participating in this martial arts and forging tournament; he may even be a future training buddy, so... How could I miss it?"
"Tsk, you fight maniac!" Railander said with a click of his tongue.
"Hahaha, I don't deny that." Apollo laughed more and more. He found Railander's expressions of disgust amusing, and teasing him was interesting. It would be even more interesting if he managed to provoke him to the point of them fighting...

Oblivious of all of this, Theo and his group spent their days cultivating and having fun. It was like they were on vacation and [Dimensional Room] was their private resort. Sometimes, Theo created some fun things from his old world to entertain the girls. They went bowling and played pool; they also played cards and dominoes. It was always good to play something like these games sometimes for fun. Theo thought it was important to increase their cultivation, but he did not want to deprive them of having fun too. Besides, with the time difference of the [Dimensional Room], they had this benefit of being able to better enjoy their days.
"..." Little Yui furtively yawned in an extremely cute way. Their group had already spent more than 15 hours awake, and she felt tired and sleepy from training and playing.
"Yui, you're tired, go get some sleep. Tomorrow you can play with Emma again." Mizuki saw her daughter's actions and told her this with a gentle smile.
"... Okay," Little Yui reluctantly agreed.
"Mm. Emma is also tired," Little Emma yawned as she said.
"Let me tell you a story," Alice said with a gentle smile. She loved to keep Little Yui and Little Emma company. The two girls, although young, were always full of ideas and creativity for new games, especially when it came to fighting.
"I leave the two girls with you, Alice." Yuki patted Alice on the shoulder and smiled gently at her.
"You can count on me," Alice nodded. After that, she left with Little Yui and Little Emma toward the mansion.
"We are also going to sleep," said Klin. Jka also said goodbye.
