My Fairy Growth System

The triangular carriage continued to dash for more than an hour after it entered the Inner City, before finally stopping next to a five-story tall inn.

On the way, Real Person Shuirun gave a brief introduction to the basic situation of Wendao Immortal City.

"Wendao Immortal City, with its Inner City protected by a Fourth Stage Ten Extremes Protective Array, central Mount Wendao has a Fifth Stage Ten Extremes Protective Array.

Whether it's the Outer City, Inner City or Mount Wendao, private dueling is prohibited, but there are a lot of Dueling Platforms.

Most areas within the city prohibit flying for Cultivators below the Nascent Soul, and one needs to use beast-drawn carriages within the city and the Sect's Flying Boat to go to Mount Wendao.

...

When everyone arrived at the entrance of the inn, they saw a signboard hanging over the doorway with the words "Pavilion of Listening Waves" written on it.

To either side of the door was a couplet:

Only fitting for an immortal's abode, ask a fellow Daoist, from which seas or peaks do you come;

And bestow the spiritual rain, taste myriad forms of life, kept within this cave of heaven.

Upon entering the Pavilion of Listening Waves, the first thing that caught the eye was a waterfall in the center of the hall that flowed upwards from below, with misty water vapor drifting from the falls and filling the air.

The surrounding buildings and houses were embedded into the stone walls, embellished with various exotic flowers and plants, making one feel as though they were in an immortal's cave heaven.

"Yo, isn't that Real Person Shuirun? How come you're so late, did some young master trip you up?"

While Real Person Youzhi was handling check-in procedures for the group, a line of people emerged from a sightseeing elevator nearby, and the flamboyantly dressed leading female Cultivator, seeing Real Person Shuirun, immediately issued a provocation.

"Ying Dang, was last time's swelling not enough for you?"

Real Person Shuirun stared coldly at the newcomer, speaking icily.

Since attending the Wendao Sect's Nascent Soul ceremony was a group event, Yu Qingtan and the others were all wearing their Sect's uniform, as other Sects generally did.

From the distinctive but more coquettish pink uniforms of Ying Dang Real Person and her group, Yu Qingtan recognized them as Cultivators from Charm Immortal Cave.

"Humph, last time you merely took advantage of your Magical Treasures. Now that I have mastered my Lifebound Magical Treasure as well, the situation is entirely different."

The Cultivator from Charm Immortal Cave, Ying Dang, placed her left hand on her slender waist while pointing at Shuirun, responding with a snort.

"So much nonsense, if you're brave enough, let's settle it on the Dueling Platform!"

Real Person Shuirun replied with disdain.

"Why not, but since the Pavilion of Listening Waves only has a Second Stage Dueling Platform, why not let a couple of juniors take our places. If your side loses, you return the Third Stage Spiritual Fire you took from me, and if we lose, I won't pursue the matter of that Spiritual Fire anymore."

"You really have some nerve, bringing this up so directly. I agree to the conditions for the juniors dueling, but if you lose, you have to give me another portion of Third Stage Spiritual Fire."

Real Person Shuirun replied with a cold laugh.

"Good, let's agree to that!"

Ying Dang Real Person revealed a triumphant smile, eagerly agreeing.

By now, Real Person Youzhi had completed the registration, and many guests who had already checked in came out upon hearing the commotion to watch the excitement.

The group moved to a huge hall-like building in the backyard of the Pavilion of Listening Waves; in the center was a hundred-yard diameter stage, a smaller Dueling Platform, always guarded by enforcers from the Immortal City.

"Fat Tiger, you're up. Win and I'll reward you tonight."

Ying Dang Real Person said to a burly young man standing behind her.

Fat Tiger's eyes sparkled at this, and he leapt onto the Dueling Platform, unabashedly releasing his own powerful aura.

"A late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator with Body Refinement? Isn't this guy even older than you?"

Real Person Shuirun's expression changed as she challenged.

It was generally assumed that the Cultivators participating in this Nascent Soul ceremony were the Sects' geniuses, and Fat Tiger obviously didn't fit that category.

"If you can't beat him, just admit defeat, don't make excuses."

Ying Dang smiled, her mouth almost splitting with glee.

Real Person Shuirun, at a loss for words, realized that without shame, one truly is invincible. Initially, she thought her junior sister disciple, Shui Qingrou, was almost unbeatable among the genius Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Golden Core level Sects.

But faced with a Foundation Establishment late-stage body cultivator, under the constraints of the dueling platform, she stood no chance of victory.

The Second Stage dueling platform does not permit the use of Charm Treasure, Ancient Treasure, or any other means above the Third Stage, and the cramped space obviously favored those body cultivators who fought at close quarters.

Ordinary law cultivators, when approached by body cultivators of the same stage, were almost certainly doomed, let alone when the opponent was a small realm higher.

Shui Qingrou also understood that her senior sister initially wanted her to step forward. Clenching her teeth, she moved one step ahead, and then she couldn't move any further.

Shui Yun, the truth-seeker, stopped her because she knew that Shui Qingrou was no match for Fatty Tiger, and it didn't matter if she gave away the Spiritual Fire since she wouldn't be able to use it anyway.

Then, she saw Yu Qingtan leap straight forward and jump onto the dueling platform.

"Tianxiang Valley, Yu Qingtan, please enlighten me!"

"Charming Fairy Cave, Han Fatty Tiger, please enlighten me!"

Fatty Tiger revealed a big white-toothed grin and leered at Yu Qingtan as he spoke.

A formation barrier formed on the platform.

Below the platform, Shui Yun, the truth-seeker, felt somewhat relieved but also anxious.

Shui Qingrou, Xiang Yiyi, and others admired Yu Qingtan greatly, while only Yan Xi, Yan Shu, and Luo Ren frowned.

"Loves to show off, overestimating her own abilities!"

Yan Xi even muttered under her breath.

The onlookers all secretly felt it was a pity, such a beauty shouldn't be damaged in the fight.

On the platform, Fatty Tiger had already launched the first attack.

With a thrust of his hind legs, he was in front of Yu Qingtan in the blink of an eye, delivering a Black Tiger Heart Pluck straight toward her chest.

Seeing that Yu Qingtan neither used an Escape Technique to dodge nor a talisman or spiritual artifact to defend or counterattack, Fatty Tiger's face revealed a smug smile, as he changed his punch into a palm strike.

Immediately, his smile froze on his face as he let out a pained growl.

Because Yu Qingtan's slender left fist swung out, hitting Fatty Tiger's palm, stopping it dead in its tracks, while her right leg fiercely kicked out, delivering a Dynasty-Ending Kick.

"She's actually a Foundation Establishment late-stage body cultivator, and this young lady can't be older than twenty, right?"

The onlookers were shocked. Body refinement was not only excruciatingly painful but also slow to advance, and it required a lot of resources. Reaching this stage of body refinement at such a young age was no easy feat.

Moreover, everyone present knew that Tianxiang Valley was a sect of law cultivators.

"Could it be that Yu Qingtan is practicing dual Cultivation of Law and Body?"

From the expressions of those from Tianxiang Valley, such as Shui Qingrou's admiration, Yan Xi's discontent, and Xiao Youwei's excitement, the onlookers knew their guess was correct and in their hearts, they gasped in awe.

On the platform, although Fatty Tiger was kicked, he was still a Foundation Establishment late-stage body cultivator with no weak points on his body, not enough to be taken down instantly.

Grimacing, he retreated to create distance.

Yu Qingtan took the initiative to chase after him using the Water Escape Technique, combining punches and kicks in her attack.

Although she didn't practice any specific body techniques, she had copied a lot of mortal martial arts using "Love's Tribute" from her devotee, so her moves had form and style.

Additionally, her divine sense was strong, and she always used the Blue Clear Spiritual Pupil Technique, allowing her to predict her opponent's moves and strike at his weak defenses.

Below the platform, everyone watching Yu Qingtan dominate Fatty Tiger couldn't help but smile, while the face of Ying Dang, the truth-seeker, was as dark as pot ash.

"Fatty Tiger, if you lose, don't come to see me anymore!"

Ying Dang, the truth-seeker, shouted angrily with clenched teeth.

"Ah~"

On hearing this, Fatty Tiger let out a loud roar, his blood qi surged, and his power and momentum greatly increased, shaking off Yu Qingtan who was attacking him, and he took out a set of armor and a pair of gauntlets to wear.

"Blood Ignition Secret Technique, huh?"

Yu Qingtan's cute eyes narrowed.
