The Heavenly Dao martial arts competition is the largest event in the Four Great Continents after the unification of the Three Realms.

Humans, demons, and even some Immortals eagerly signed up to participate.

After half a year of selection, the finals of the Heavenly Dao competition were held in the skies above the East Sea, where all eyes were fixed.

Twenty or so contestants from the Four Great Continents had battled through several days of competition, finally arriving at the last match of the finals.

On the day of the final, Sun Wukong invited Fairy Chang'e to watch together.

Fairy Chang'e was a bit surprised by the invitation: "Why me?"

Sun Wukong smiled slightly and said, "It might turn into a good story."

Fairy Chang'e became even more curious.

"The weather is nice today."

Sun Wukong glanced at the sky and said, "If something happens, no need to protect me."

The old monkeys following by his side were also stunned.

Upon arriving at the venue, the crowd boiled over with the arrival of Sun Wukong.

"Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Emperor!"

Cheers resounded through the heavens, even giving Fairy Chang'e the feeling that Sun Wukong was the one competing in the finals.

It wasn't until Sun Wukong sat down that the cheers gradually died down.

But as the cheering faded, the crowd began to heatedly discuss why Sun Wukong would bring Fairy Chang'e along.

Fairy Chang'e felt somewhat uncomfortable hearing those discussions.

Sun Wukong, however, noticed that today's referee was Emperor Qinghua.

"Great Emperor, why is it you?"

"Your Majesty has come to watch the battle; naturally, I cannot be absent," replied Emperor Qinghua.

He reminisced about the events in the Southern Continent of the past.

It was a pity that Sun Wukong could not compete now; otherwise, it would be even more interesting.

"Alright, let's start."

Sun Wukong instructed Emperor Qinghua to begin the martial arts competition.

The final contestants, a man and a woman, bowed to each other upon receiving the command and commenced their battle.

The Heavenly Dao martial arts competition, of course, was a competition of the Heavenly Dao.

The use of any spells other than those from the Wanling Heavenly Dao was not allowed here, but both contestants were very proficient in the Heavenly Dao, clashing fiercely with overwhelming momentum.

The entire arena turned into a sea of fire.

Sun Wukong watched the contest between the two calmly.

The female contestant was naturally the Asura woman.

Perhaps fearing that Sun Wukong and Emperor Qinghua would recognize her, she was initially nervous and made frequent errors, keeping the audience on tenterhooks.

After being knocked down several times, Qing Yuanzi couldn't stand it anymore; he ran to the edge of the arena and shouted a few words.

Then, the battle performance of the Asura woman normalized.

"It's like a novel."

Fairy Chang'e found this scene very unusual and became intrigued.

The martial arts competition continued.

The battle between the two contestants grew fiercer, breaking through the arena's barriers and taking to the skies.

After a while, the battle moved above Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong looked up, and immediately after, the man's aura suddenly changed, emitting a strong Immortal Energy.

"Die!"

He cast aside the Asura woman and turned into a beam of light that flew toward Sun Wukong, under the astonished gazes of the spectators.

"How dare you!"

Emperor Qinghua's expression darkened, and he was about to take action when suddenly, his body stiffened, and he stopped.

"Your Majesty."

He looked at Sun Wukong in astonishment.

The beam of light rapidly approached Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong closed his eyes, and with a "boom", another figure intercepted in front.

It was the Asura woman!

He opened his eyes again, and the Asura woman had already pressed the male contestant back to the arena to resume their fierce battle.

A flash of enlightenment crossed Emperor Qinghua's eyes.

"Contestant number 18 saved Your Majesty!"

He announced loudly.

Everyone cheered.

Fairy Chang'e's eyes went blank.

"Could this make a good story?"

Sun Wukong asked Fairy Chang'e.

Fairy Chang'e nodded, "Why did that Independent Immortal attempt to assassinate the Heavenly Emperor?"

"Because of reform," Sun Wukong answered.

His reforms offended some people, and it was normal for them to seek revenge.

But Sun Wukong was not the kind of frail Heavenly Emperor; as long as he wished, no one could get near him.

"That guy has some guts."

Sun Wukong said, "It's a pity to become part of someone else's story."

Fairy Chang'e seemed thoughtful, somewhat understanding why Sun Wukong had brought her here.

She looked towards the tournament ground.

Before long, the cheering of the crowd came to an abrupt stop.

To stop that Independent Immortal, the Asura woman had no choice but to reveal her true power and was forced into her original form.

She defeated the Independent Immortal, but her identity was subsequently exposed.

"Asura!"

The spectators were shocked.

This contestant was the very Asura that all the Immortals of the Three Realms had been searching for.

Sun Wukong took another look at Fairy Chang'e.

She showed a look of surprise, clearly unexpected.

The martial arts tournament had come to an end.

Sun Wukong stood up.

The Independent Immortal was defeated, but the entire venue was immersed in silence.

Sun Wukong walked towards the tournament ground, with the aura of the Heavenly Emperor gradually emerging behind him.

The Asura woman, locked in by his presence, trembled and knelt on the ground.

This was her first time being so close to Sun Wukong. Although he only showed a small fraction of his power, it was still enough to instill fear in her.

"I can't win."

She thought to herself.

The four Asura Kings combined might not even match this Heavenly Emperor.

Sun Wukong approached her, "Lift your head."

The Asura woman lifted her head.

"You are now the champion."

Sun Wukong said, "State your wish."

The Asura woman's eyes widened in disbelief, "You—you don't want to kill me?"

"I keep my word."

Sun Wukong replied, "First tell me, what is your request?"

"I—I…"

The Asura woman stuttered a few times before making her request.

Her request was so simple, just to obtain an identity.

Not long after, cheers echoed throughout the venue.

The Heavenly Dao martial arts tournament had ended.

In the venue, Qing Yuanzi and the Asura woman embraced each other.

Daji and some Demon Kings stood beside them, celebrating for them.

Sun Wukong watched this scene. During his absence, some interesting stories took place around Qing Yuanzi.

How the Asura woman got involved with Daji and came to make so many friends, he did not completely understand.

"From now on, it's better to read books."

Sun Wukong glanced at Fairy Chang'e and turned to leave the tournament ground with Emperor Qinghua.

"Brother."

Outside the tournament ground, Ao Luan waited for him quietly.

Sun Wukong looked at her.

"Brother, you knew from the beginning, didn't you?"

Ao Luan asked.

"Yes."

Sun Wukong nodded.

"When did it start?"

Ao Luan questioned further.

"From the very beginning."

Sun Wukong stated.

From the moment the Asura woman and Qing Yuanzi connected, he knew what today's outcome would be.

Ao Luan didn't know what to say for a moment.

Behind this final match was hidden the story of two people, quietly flowing by Sun Wukong's side.

He saw through everything yet let it pass, without leaving too much of a trace in his heart.

Perhaps others' stories are just fleeting moments in his eyes.

Ao Luan felt inexplicably saddened in her heart.

Sun Wukong walked past her, Ao Luan wanted to reach out to hold him, but stopped halfway.

"Ao Luan."

Sun Wukong suddenly stopped.

Ao Luan turned to look at him.

Sun Wukong smiled slightly, "Have you carved out that one day's time yet?"

This was the most heart-racing smile Ao Luan had seen in her growth to date.

But, that record lasted only three days.
