Unrivaled Under The Heaven

Waking up in the morning as he finds himself laying down on the mat with his robe that now looks like a rag from the fight. Jason was just about to get up from the mat when he felt the pain all over his body as groaned in pain.

"So you have finally decided to wake up eh" said Clara who walked in with a bowl of medicine in her hand.

"Good morning mother" reply Jason as he tries to get up and greet her properly.

"There will be no need for that, take drink it all" said Clara as she passed the bowl to Jason.

Taking the bowl from his mother, Jason took a sip from the content of the bowl, and his expression change but still decided to continue drinking since his mother had gone through the trouble of making the medicine for him.

"Now tell me, why do you always get into a fight whenever I sent you to get me something from the market" asked Clara after Jason was done drinking the medicine.

"I tried avoiding them but they will always come back and won't let me off the hook no matter what I say" reply Jason.

"I am the one that gave birth to you and you still dare to lie to me" said Clara in anger.

"Haha, actually I just wanted to test myself and see how much I have improved in my training which is why I didn't bother to avoid them" reply Jason with a laugh.

"You just want to know how much you have improved and getting into a fight with Andrew was the best option you had and take a look at how beat up you are" said Clara in anger.

"At least he is not doing well himself" reply Jason.

"You should be preparing for the tournament that is only a week away instead you decided to go play" said Clara.

"I am still going to train mother so don't worry yourself too much" reply Jason.

"And how do you plan to do that with the state you are in right now" asked Clara with a frown.

"Well you don't have to worry yourself about that, I have my ways" reply Jason with a smile on his face.

His mother just decided to ignore him and left him alone to recover and the moment she left, Jason has a wide smile on his face as he begins to speak to the bracelet in his head.

"Hey, how was my performance yesterday".

"I have to say kid, you did great unlike that time that you just stood there and let them do as they please. I believe they will have to show you some respect from now on" reply the bracelet.

"I thought as much and maybe I will be able to win the tournament with my current strength," said Jason as he grips his hand into a fist.

"We can't be so sure, so you will continue with your training" reply the bracelet.

"I never plan on quitting my training or going on a break either" said Jason with determination.

"That is the spirit but before we start with your training, you will have to practice the heaven's law" reply the bracelet.

"How am I supposed to do that when I don't know how to cultivate it" asked Jason.

"Which is why you have me to guide you" reply the bracelet.

"Okay, so what should I do" asked Jason as he was ready to give it a try.

"First try to feel the energy in the earth, then try absorbing the energy" reply the bracelet.

Sitting properly, Jason begin to cultivate the heaven's law as he begins to search for the energy that flows within the earth although he was not able to find the energy, he did not bother to asked the bracelet and just continue with his search but unknowing to him while he was busy searching for the energy, the spiritual energy within the tent was flowing towards him and begin to sip into his poles in a very slow pace.

Still searching for the energy within the earth with no hope of succeeding, Jason felt his body shook hard as he opened his eyes in fright that Andrew and his group has for revenge only for him to discover that he was the only one in the room. And the moment his eyes were opened, the spiritual energy went back to normal.

"If I was not attacked, then why did my body shook just then" mutter Jason before he begins to observe his body but that is when his eyes grew wide in shock when he saw that his skin has grown hard than the way it was before.

"Did I just breakthrough into the 5th layer of tempered body" Jason asked himself in shock.

"Yes, you did kid so wipe that surprised look off your face" replies the bracelet.

"But I haven't found the energy so how can I was able to achieve a breakthrough" asked Jason still not understanding how he was able to breakthrough.

"The moment you started cultivating the

heaven's law, the spiritual energy within your range will all the drawn to you. Just imagine the amount of spiritual energy you could have drawn if you were able to find and absorb the earth energy" replies the bracelet.

"So it is like a suction force" asked Jason.

"Exactly and if you were in a place where the spiritual energy is very tense, you will be able to improve greatly" reply the bracelet.

"Well as long as I can cultivate it here am okay. Come to think of it, all this while that I have been searching for the earth energy, I was not able to feel not even a trace of it and why is that" asked Jason.

"I can't tell you the answer to that l" reply the bracelet.

"Come on, I thought you said you are going to help in any way you can" beg Jason.

"And that is what I am doing right now because I will be hindering your progress if I should tell you.. So go figure it out yourself" reply the bracelet as he makes it clear he won't be helping him out.
