Golden Fox with System - Chapter 441

"I remember you still don't have a good movement technique, correct?" Theo stroked Zaira's head as she lay on his chest.

"En," Zaira made a small sound in agreement.

"Okay, let me show you a good technique you can use." Theo kissed her head and smiled.

In his mind, he communicated with Rya, 'Rya, what would be the best movement technique for Zaira?'

Ten seconds later, Rya replied, ["Master, here are the top ten movement techniques that she can use right now."]

As soon as Rya said this, a holographic page appeared in front of Theo with information on the techniques. Observing and reading the information, Theo made his selection.

_ _

[100 million points were used]

[Movement Technique: Technique was presented to: Zaira].

[Technique information is being transferred right now]

Spiritual Rank.

This technique has 11 levels – It is the shadow; it is the lightning, breaking the heavens.

_ _

Zaira's eyes blinked, and she instantly felt her brain fill with new information.

'Although it is similar to the movement technique I use, I believe it is probably a little superior.' Theo said in his heart as he watched Zaira digest the information from the technique. 'Furthermore, this technique would be quite useful while flying.'

The next day everyone looked at Zaira with a smile; most had already guessed what happened. Zaira, to suppress her embarrassment, focused on increasing her proficiency with the movement technique.

"Theo, you must repay me!" Shina approached Theo and pinched his waist. She wasn't angry that he went to Zaira's room instead of hers; it was because Theo didn't warn her and made her wait for him.

"Sorry..." Theo smiles awkwardly. He completely forgot that he had promised her due to what happened yesterday with Zaira. "I will make it up to you tonight," he whispered in her ear.

Shina felt slightly itchy in her ear and blushed a little. She demanded of him, "You better do this. I won't rest until you give me a full hour of massage."

"I expected no less." Theo tapped his chest and teased her, "I'm going to massage every corner of your body..." He used the moment to take advantage of her and massaged her shoulders, making her let out a cute m.o.a.n, causing Shina to blush completely.

"Okay, okay." Shina couldn't take any more of his teasing and pushed him away from her with both hands, "Stop teasing me; I want to cultivate now!"

Theo kept smiling as he walked away. He was now stuck in a dilemma. 'I have 56 billion points in the system. The question is... what is the best choice for spending these points?... That also reminds me, I need to help my Noble Spirits level up.'

Theo went to an empty place and brought out four stones, each one meter long and half a meter wide. They name of these stones was [Spiritual Growth Stone].

_ _

[40 million points were used]

Acquired 4 [Spiritual Growth Stone].

[Spiritual Growth Stone]: Contains the densest spiritual mana that is worshiped mainly by Noble Spirits and helps them level up while they remain very close.

_ _

The four stones appeared in front of Theo. Each [Spiritual Growth Stone] emitted dense white light and was surrounded by a pure spiritual aura.

Kuro, Kin and Roiyaruse appeared and became agitated upon seeing the [Spiritual Growth Stone].

Theo said to them, smiling, "Since you all looked so agitated when you saw these, each of you can have one. The items are self explanatory. If you remain close to these, your powers will grow and you will be able to level up."

It is the same as having food on the plate and knowing that it is to eat

Spotting Mizuki, Theo called out to her, "Mizuki!"

Mizuki went over to where he was. "Yes?"

"Do you see these stones?" Seeing her nod, he explained, "You can have one of these [Spiritual Growth Stone] and use it to raise your Noble Spirit."

After a brief explanation, she understood what it was for.

If it were before, she might have thought about refusing, but she no longer felt like a stranger to him. She replied with a grateful smile, "Thank you, Theo."

"You do not have to thank me." Theo smiled and patted her head; it was purely by reflex. He was used to doing this with Little Yui and Little Emma sometimes, even with Yuki and the girls.

Mizuki's cheeks turned pink. She felt shy but didn't try to avoid it.

When Theo left, Mizuki put both hands on her head and felt like there were butterflies in her stomach. She thought to herself, 'This is not so bad...'

After two hours passed since Jka and the girls started training, Theo gave them diluted phoenix blood to drink. Of course, he also drank the diluted blood and felt an increase in his lineage's power.

Something that perhaps added only to show Theo had the strongest phoenix lineage was his eyes, which resembled phoenix eyes: pointed internally, with the outer corner lifted slightly upward, leaving his golden eyes even more charming and mysterious.

In the tournament, humans and non-humans (who were mostly animals in human form: Demi-humans, Elftreen, and fish people) were having super exciting conversations talking about everything Theo had done so far. There were some conversations which dug so deep that the gossipers discovered it was not long ago since Theo advanced to the Spiritual Realm.

"Seriously? Wasn't Theo at the Spiritual Realm a few months ago?" A catgirl asked, incredulous.

"Months? It was a maximum of 2 months." Snorting, a dolphin man answered her, "An acquaintance of mine said he went to Volts City and saw Theo, and at that time he noticed that the city lord, who was Theo, -that he was in the 11th Layer of the Superior Wizard Realm."

"Wow!" Those closest who heard this could not fail to be surprised.

"But how long ago was it?" A girl asked.

"That was three months ago," The dolphin man replied gravely.

"Wow!"

"Oh, my God!"

"So... did Theo make it to the 2nd Layer of the Spiritual Realm in a few days?" A big, strong man full of explosive muscles asked in disbelief.

"Possibly." The dolphin man from before added, "Remember the beautiful blue woman who said she exterminated the Ten Thousand Soul Sect? I believe it was she who helped Theo level up so fast in cultivating."

"I wish I was that lucky."

"As my mother used to say; envy is a bitch... Ah, how I envy Theo!"

"God, give me some of his luck and then I will find a beautiful wife and be happy."

Some humans and a single dog man screamed in the hope of God hearing their prayer.

"But even though Theo got help from that woman, Theo is still amazing!" A fangirl of Theo's said, because she thought they might start belittling Theo for receiving support from someone powerful.

"Hahaha. We know." All those who were close laughed and did not disagree.

Everyone agreed with what the dolphin man said about Theo receiving help getting to the Spiritual Realm, but that didn't mean they thought it was all by Aomi's merit. If so, all the powerful sects were full of 17-year-old disciples in the Spiritual Realm. But the reality was that Theo was the first 17-year-old cultivator to arrive at the Spiritual Realm on the Spirit Planet. There were even reports that many powerful sects from all over the world were coming to try to recruit Theo to their sect.

Soon, the end of the first stage of the martial arts tournament was announced as well as that the next day the second stage would begin. In the meantime, everyone took a break from the tournament for a few hours. This made many who had not slept sleep on their sh.i.p.s, boats, carriages, or even sleep sitting in the stands; none of them were willing to leave. Even if it took a few hours, they were willing to wait.

Of course, just as there were groups talking well about Theo, there were also groups talking badly about him.

"Man, I once heard from my grandfather that it is possible to cheat the stone that calculates age," A gorilla in human form commented softly.

"Is that serious? Wow!! Perhaps Theo is really a very old man?" Hearing this, a young man who was very envious of Theo speculated viciously, "He may even be a thousand years old!"

"Creed! Would anyone stoop to the point of doing that?" The more they spoke, the more they believed that this was true.

Those comments spread through the crowd until almost everyone in the tournament had heard.

Inside the [Dimensional Room], time passed very quickly and it was already night. Finishing the day's cultivating, Theo's group started dinner.

The ingredients were all filled with mana, something of which few had access: meat, fish, vegetables, and various other ingredients with mana energy. This was also one of the factors responsible for the strong growth of Theo's group. Even the simple fruit juice Theo had in his refrigerator was so expensive that it was possible to buy a home if sold for money. That was a privilege that they had thanks to Theo, who bought it all using his system.
