Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 246 Tribulation Tournamen

After killing the Huo brothers Ah Chun had Xiao Feng Burn their bodies as to not make a scene throughout the sect. Elder Dan looked over at Ah Chun then at Xu Wei and asked: "Chun'er this is?" 

"Big Brother Xu. He will be staying with me from now on. Do not worry though he is like Xiao Feng." Ah Chun answered. There was no point in hiding Xu Wei's ident.i.ty from her master. She had already noticed the way the Sect Master looked at Xu Wei. So She knew the Sect Master knew who he was.

"You mean he's a contracted..." Elder Dan was surprised. The little bird on Ah Chun's head was already pretty powerful and now she had another powerful contracted beast!? One that was of such high cultivation that it could take human form at that!

"Un! Big Brother Xu is my contracted beast. What kind of beast he is I will keep as a secret for now." Ah Chun did not want to tell anyone the origins of both Xu Wei and Xiao Feng. She did not want any powerful figures coming after her just in case word got out that two ancient races were in a contract with a human. Such a thing would cause an uproar that would mark her for death by ancient clans human and nonhuman alike. She also did not want to bring any dragon clan members around for the time being since she was now considered their arch enemy due to her cultivation method. 

Even if Ah Chun had no hatred against the dragon clan or even if she did not seek to wipe the dragon clan out they would still go all out to kill her in case she ever did pose a threat to them in the future.

"I understand. Chun'er there will be a tournament soon within the sect. It is to pick out the disciples who will represent our sect in the Tribulation Tournament coming up in the next few months. Now that you are in qi gathering I want you to join the tournament. As I see it you are unrivaled in your cultivation realm. So joining the Tribulation Tournament should not be a problem. " Elder Dan said.

"Tribulation tournament?" This was the first time Ah Chun was hearing about such a tournament.

"The Tribulation Tournament is where all the Sects and Clans in the Primordial Lands gather to see who is the best of the best. Each sect will produce a small amount of rare resources to give to the winners. The winners of each realm will gain access to the Cleansing Pools for twenty four hours. The Cleansing Pools will help reforge your bones and muscles as well as widen your meridians. So I want you to take first place and gain access to the Cleansing Pools. It will be very beneficial on your path of cultivation." Elder Dan explained.

Hearing this Ah Chun's eyes lit up she did not mind the resources so much but more of the Cleansing Pools. Such a good thing was well worth fighting for. "Do not worry I will win that spot no matter what." Determination and confidence were written all over Ah Chun's face. "Master when is the sect tournament being held?"

"Tomorrow will be the first rounds it will last until a winner is decided for each realm." Elder Dan answered.

"Sounds like fun. I will finally get to stretch a bit! Oh, before I forget Master, I will need a wooden sword for the tournament." Ah Chun was not used to fighting in such things as tournaments. So she was not sure if she would not end up accidentally killing someone out of habit. With a dull wooden sword at least she will not kill anyone. 

Elder Dan was confused for a moment but soon realized why Ah Chun would ask for such a thing. She knew from sparing with Ah Chun that she had always gone for vital spots. Although she would never follow through during a spar, during a tournament where you still needed to beat up your opponent you would need to follow through with your attack. By not having a sharp blade Ah Chun could still hit the vitals without killing the person and if you were good you could still inflict wounds on your opponent without it being life threatening. 

Elder Dan flipped her hand and a wooden sword appeared in her hand. "I just so happen to have a very good wooden sword. It is as strong as any other metal sword out there but it is blunt and will allow you to follow through with your attacks."

Ah Chun held the wooden sword in her hand and performed some moves with it. The balance was just right which made Ah Chun smile. "For a wooden sword, I have to say this is very well made!" 

"Go cultivate. The tournament will start early in the morning. Just be careful tomorrow. Try not to cripple anyone." Elder Dan gave out this last warning and walked back towards her own courtyard.

Ah Chun chuckled as she turned and entered her own courtyard. She had had a long journey so the first thing she wanted to do was take a bath. She had Xu Wei help her get a bath ready before jumping in and soaking for a while. After she was done she went right into cultivation mode. She was very excited about the tournament tomorrow. She wondered if she would have any difficult fights in the next few weeks. Even if she did she was sure she would win no matter what. At least if the fight was tough she would get some decent practice in.
