Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheo frowned at this. But knowing it to be something related to the system, and given the option to choose, it meant that choosing randomly was not a good idea. Was it because if they were random, the challenges might come with a double attribute?
Thinking like that, Theo clicked his finger on options 3, 5, 7, 8, and 9. The reason for him to choose these affinities was simple: he believed that if something were formed from these elements to attack him, it would be easier for him to defend himself. The ones he didn't choose were mostly the fastest elements. For Theo, going against someone fast was worse than going against someone with a good defense.
At the moment, Theo had chosen five elements which were: Fire, Earth, Ice, Metal, and Water. A Dragon made of fire began to form.
*ROARRR!*
As soon as the fire dragon's mouth was formed, the dragon suddenly roared, furiously, causing shock waves.
What surprised Theo the most about all this was that this fire dragon seemed to have intelligence. At least, the dragon's eyes were filled with life as he looked at Theo in a bloodthirsty manner.
Knowing that powerful beings were seeing this, Theo used his ability: <Supreme Concealment>. Even though he didn't have a 100% chance of being able to trick them, Theo at least wanted to not let them see through him.

Ability: Supreme Concealment - Raised to level 4.

"Mm?" This took Theo by surprise. He didn't expect that as soon as he used this ability, it would level up.
'How many divine beings are watching me, exactly?' It made Theo's heart beat faster. There were rare times when Theo was afraid. Now he knew that these beings were anything but simple. Just because they were watching, it had made his skill level up...

In an illusory kingdom, unviable to the perception of many, a group of more than 100 deities was gathered. Whenever a divine being passed through the Divine Heavenly Tribulation, the other divine beings were warned and could go to the illusory realm to attend as spectators.
Isis, who was also a divine beast, was among them, and she was one of the most dangerous divine beasts, since she could erase the existence of any living being, provided it was weaker than herself. And now that she had made some advances in cultivation, thanks to Theo and also to the sisters, Phoenix and Golden Crow, she became even more fearful.
"This fox is not of any deity that I know," a powerful voice, full of coolness and pride said.
"Yes, I thought at first that he had the extinct nine-tailed fox deity, but that doesn't seem to be the case. After all, he has ten tails and his divinity has nothing to do with the origin of the nine-tailed fox," said an old man with gray hair and a beard, his eyes squinting as he tried to discover Theo's origin.
"He is very handsome," a woman said in a soft, seductive voice, "I wouldn't mind making him my little boyfriend..."
"You must be kidding, right?" A man with long dark hair and a pair of horns said arrogantly, "I am much more handsome and powerful than he is. Why don't you accept me, Helena?"
"Humph!" The seductive and beautiful Helena said sarcastically, "Semyaz, speak again when you manage to beat me. Tsk, I think it's a very high goal for someone like you. At least make it to the top 10 of the divine beasts, and then maybe I'll reconsider~"
"..." Semyaz clenched his hands into fists. He knew it was almost impossible to beat Helena, and being among the 10 divine beasts was just as difficult.
"Damn it!" He swore and looked at Theo angrily.
Isis found it strange for Helena to say that. She imagined that with Helena's playful personality she was just saying it for fun, but still, she couldn't help from worrying, since if the other divine beasts, like her, believe in what she said, they might start thinking about eliminating Theo because of that.
Isis looked at Helena and tried to act casually by asking, "Helena, are you serious about wanting him as your boyfriend?"
"Ara?" With a seductive smile and crossing her sexy legs, Helena looked with great interest at Isis, and her smile became even more evident, making the heartbeat of many men in the room shoot up. "Little Isis, were you interested in him too? It is the first time I have seen you interested in someone of the opposite sex. It makes me very intrigued..." She licked her seductive red lips and said, "I was kidding initially, but seeing you ask, made me think it might not a bad idea..."
"#&@$" Isis cursed in her mind. She knew that this seductive woman was very smart and cunning. Isis then said to her, looking indifferent, "No, I don't. You can have it if you want; I was just curious."
"Heh... Why am I not convinced?" Helena stroked her hair lightly - an action so passionate, it instantly caught the attention of some of the men who watched. The moment she leaned back a little, her big breasts jumped up, then she spread a red floral fan, and said while covering her mouth with a seductive chuckle, "If he can get through the Divine Heavenly Tribulation, I will make him my little boyfriend!"
'Damn it!' Isis cursed in her heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHelena looked at Isis and realized that something was going on between her and this fox. Shrewdly, a charming and passionate smile suddenly appeared on her face.

Meanwhile, Theo was preparing to face the fire dragon that had just formed. The dragon's strength was as strong as that of a cultivator on the 1st Layer of the Monarch Spiritual Realm. Because of this, Theo was very calm when facing this fire dragon.
When Theo hit with his fist, a quick, violent blow hit the air, exploding with a sonic *boom*, hitting the fire dragon's chest. Both the speed and the explosive strength were quite surprising, but in the opinion of Semyaz and the divine beings who were watching, it was still a little weak.
The fire dragon roared and flapped its wings and flew. In the air, he spat fire at Theo, looking like a 100-meter thick flamethrower.
Seeing this, Theo did not feel threatened. Although it looked powerful, it would be easy for him to counterattack. With his hand filled with water power, Theo charged towards the fire dragon's flames.
*Booom!*
The collision of the two attacks caused shock waves, and due to the fire trying to evaporate the water and the water putting out the fire, the place was clouded with gray smoke.
When everyone watching was thinking that this fight would end up taking too long, they saw Theo fly by very fast. When he reached the back of the fire dragon, Theo shouted in his mind: '<Black Thunder's Primordial Vibration>!'
More powerful than lightning, Theo's fist descended on the dragon's head and exploded the fire dragon's head with a powerful blow that was able to make space vibrate and crack.
Before the rest of the fire dragon's body dispersed, Theo used golden flames to "burn" the fire dragon's body.
'Why is he doing this?' Many divine beings wondered, curious.
Of course, Theo would not be so foolish as to answer. When using his golden flames, it had an effect similar to <Devour> that was something that even Isis didn't know. Without anyone noticing, the flames were fading. What they didn't know was that it was entering Theo's body discreetly. Although Isis warned that his illusions were not strong enough to deceive some of them, he still used illusions to reinforce what he was doing with the <Supreme Concealment> skill.
