Chapter 14: Spectator Mode: Activated
Elias stepped out of his cultivation chamber, his new clothes still faintly humming with residual Qi resonance. His skin was clean, his movements sharp, his body a vortex of quiet power. Internally, the new core—his tokamak—spun with tranquil violence, feeding thirty trillion cellular cyclones with compressed spiritual energy.
He stretched his arms. His bones made no sound. No creak, no resistance. Everything inside him simply worked—like a well-oiled god.
A chime echoed in the distance. Then a voice.
"All outer sect disciples, prepare for the annual tournament. Sign-up period ends at dusk. Top 20 entrants will be promoted to Inner Sect."
Elias blinked.
Then blinked again.
Then turned toward the the area the announce came from. "Well that’s convenient."
"Lets go see how this world fight."
A knock came at the door. "Junior Brother Shen Yu! Did you hear the announcement?" a muffled voice asked. "You joining the tournament?"
Elias was about to go to the door, but paused for a moment and looked at himself again.
He was far too handsome.
The transformation from the Cyclonic Core Formation had not only increased his strength but rendered him offensively attractive. Sharp jaw, smooth skin, an ethereal glow like someone who moisturized with lightning and optimism. He was a walking recruitment poster.
