Quiet Blessing

In my previous life, I was half a move short and ultimately failed to reach the summit.
Having traveled back to the past, this time... I want to become the strongest in this world!
To become the strongest in this world, one only needs three simple steps:
1. Pick up a newly-transferred Demonic Sect Enchantress off the streets.
2. Subdue and vanquish the demon.
3. Take her cultivation technique for myself.
Awesome! I'm already invincible!

Years later, Yan Yu, who had earned the title of "the strongest," was interviewed on television:
Host: To whom do you want to give thanks for your success today?
Yan Yu: I'd like to thank a very important woman to me.
Host (eyes lighting up): Oh, is she your wise and virtuous wife?
Yan Yu: No, consider her a stepping stone, I suppose.
Host (wiping sweat): Then... what about the other members of your team? They must have helped you as well, right?
Yan Yu: ... How could there possibly be only one stepping stone on the path to godhood?

Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

As for the five teammates, number one and three wielded Flying Swords, number two used an ordinary-powered Flying Needle Magic Treasure, and numbers four and five were using basic Three Arts and Five Spells in combat... On average, their strength was around the Qi Refining Stage, essentially like five kindergartners ganging up on a first-grader.


Therefore, it could be inferred that the earlier challenges were relatively simple, and the more difficult ones lay ahead; otherwise, there was no explanation as to why Chen Lingyun's side had yet to clear it.


Yan Yu here played it cool as the unfazed Judge, while number one didn't give his all either, using Sword Control Technique to constrict the Martial Monk's room to maneuver, secretly taking note of Yan Yu's level of swordsmanship.
