Chapter 453 - 453: Yui Knew!

Apollo, who was inside the crater, received the last attack from the "heavenly tribulation" and was now in a state of meditation. His aura, which had previously weakened, was rising too high - a very powerful battle intention radiated from his body. Almost all cultivators who could be considered as most powerful in their world had a unique ability; Apollo's was . It was because of this unique ability that he became a battle maniac since no matter how much he got hurt he always regenerated afterward. Basically, Apollo was a powerful tank.

For Waru and Athena's group, there was no better news than to know that Apollo managed to advance to the Monarch Spiritual Realm. Another thing that made them surprised was the tranquility with which Apollo managed to pass through the heavenly tribulation. Even more, the last attack looked very powerful, but in the end, it turned out to be even weaker than the previous one.

Apollo continued to meditate for a few minutes, and because of the attacks, he ended up losing the armor he had before and was now n.a.k.e.d. When he finished meditating minutes later, he donned a new set of navy blue clothing and flew over to where Theo and the rest were.

With his hands cupped together, he bowed slightly towards Theo, and said, "Theo, thank you very much. Thanks to our struggle, I was able to have a breakthrough of which I had been stuck for over a thousand years."

"Mm, that's fine, but you won't forget what you promised, right?" Theo said with a playful smile, "Or maybe you want to continue our battle since I didn't necessarily beat you?"

"Oh, when it comes down to it, it's not that I don't want to continue our battle, but I urgently need to go into seclusion for 1 year for cultivating. In my current state, I would not be a good fighting partner," Apollo said with a roaring laugh. "Of course you came out as the winner. I didn't even have a chance before."

He threw something at Theo and continued, "This is yours now, but I still want a rematch 1 year from now. What do you think about that?"

"Okay, we can have a rematch, but next time we will have to bet even more than some magic cores," Theo joked.

Apollo, however, took Theo's words very seriously and said while laughing, "Yes, I will prepare more for you. Don't worry; this time it was because I came unprepared."

"Okay, then. See you later," Theo smiled.

Apollo nodded. After saying goodbye to Waru, Athena, and the rest, he left on his flying ship.

"Theo, do you still intend to continue participating in the martial arts tournament?" Waru asked suddenly.

"Yes, would that be a problem?" Theo asked. He would be fine if she asked him not to participate since even if he did not participate, his girls would get the first place.

"No, but I think it would be boring for you," Waru suggested, "What do you think about this?... Would you mind if we simply declared you qualified for the last stage?"

"Okay. I'm fine with that, but just myself, right?" Theo asked.

"Yes, the people who are with you can continue normally. I just think that it would not be so attractive for you to continue participating in these elimination stages," Waru said as she smiled.

"So, I agree," Theo nodded.

After that, Waru looked at Judith and said, "Judith, after the tournament is over here, we can go back to my place. I will continue to train you and see if we can get you to advance to the Monarch Spiritual Realm."

"Yes, Master!" Judith said respectfully.

Theo now understood why Waru was so supportive of Judith. 'She wants to make Judith go up in cultivating to have more cultivators in the Monarch Spiritual Realm to participate in the planetary battle.'

"Will it be long before everything is ready and the tournament starts back up again?" Yuki asked Waru.

"Not long. I think that in 3 hours everything will be ready," Waru replied.

"Theo," Yuki looked at him and said, "Shall we go in?"

"Yes." Theo nodded and then looked at Waru and the rest, "I'm going to go back inside the ark. I hope I won't be disturbed until the tournament starts."

"Yes, I'm not going to let anyone bother you guys. You can leave it to me!" Waru said with the same smile.

"Thanks," Theo said as he stood up.

Jka and the girls did the same and walked into the ark.

Inside the ark, Theo hid the presence of everyone inside with his illusions, and then they entered into the [Dimensional Room]. As the ark was an artifact linked to Theo, even when he was inside the [Dimensional Room], his illusions continued to work.

"You guys can cultivate, or even train your techniques. I urgently need to meditate..." Theo didn't have much time to lose; his affinities had been wanting to get out of his control for a long time. This was why he felt an urge to return to [Dimensional Room].

"Okay," they all agreed.

"Dad stole the last attack from the heavenly tribulation, right?" Little Yui asked with a slight giggle.

"Oh, as expected from my daughter!" Theo kissed Little Yui's pretty face and admitted, "Yes, I used my illusions and stole the last attack, and made a similar attack and fired it from the direction of Apollo."

"Heehee~ Yui knew it! Yui felt that something strange happened, but Yui was not sure," Little Yui said proudly, "But Yui confirmed her suspicions the moment Dad said he needed to meditate urgently."

"Hahaha. Yes, Dad is very proud of you. I didn't expect anyone to be able to see through my illusions." Theo laughed out loud as he stroked Little Yui's head, which made her puff out her chest and laugh happily at her father's compliments.

"So that's what happened..." Unlike Yui, no one was able to notice that something different had happened. They didn't even suspect.

"Okay, I'm going. Don't approach me while I'm meditating, as my aura could get out of my control," Theo warned and they nodded.

After that, Theo went to a corner of the [Dimensional Room] and started meditating. As soon as he didn't try to forcefully repress his affinities, a very strong vortex of various elements made up of his affinities created a rainbow that went skyward and hit the top of the [Dimensional Room].

"How beautiful!" The girls marveled at the sight. The colors of Theo's affinities were even more striking and beautiful than some rainbows created after raining. In addition, as it was constantly rotating, the colors were also constantly changing, creating something even more mystical and beautiful.

"Hmm... I'm getting dizzy," Zenia the panda girl said while looking at the vortex that was created by Theo's affinities.

"Me too… Let's stop looking and focus on cultivating," Kelly, the cat girl suggested.

"Yes." After that, Zenia and Kelly moved further away and began to meditate.

"I also think we better start training," Shina said.

"Yes." Jka and the girls agreed.
