First Day of Main Tournament

 The ray of sunlight caused him to stir, making him shake his head in an attempt to not be blinded by the light despite his eyes being closed. When doing that didn't work, Ryker decided to give in, opening his eyes to a sight that made him both warm and aroused.

 His women, all lying naked on the bed, his seed spilling from the bottom lips. Despite his being gentle with them, when the lust and passion spilled open, it still made him ravage them all even though he held himself back by a lot.

 At least, despite their current looks, they could at least walk, with the exception of Rina. When she woke up from her first session, he had spent the time pounding her as much as he could before going for the others when she lost consciousness.

 The process repeated multiple times until she didn't rise anymore for the night. While the rest were filled with his seed three times, he burst into her lower cavern 8 times, making her stomach bloated from the amount of his load inside her. One that came out like a waterfall when he was done with her.

 Unfortunately, it meant she wouldn't be able to join with the rest in watching him as he doubted she could walk. Even if he healed her, it wouldn't be too effective as he was not too skilled and even if he gave her Stamina Potion it wouldn't affect her much as it was soreness that plagued her more than exhaustion.

 He decided to ask for her opinions during breakfast. For now, he should help them bathe as they were clearly unable to do it themselves for a while. It's not like he didn't have any other motives than that.

 While they were having breakfast, Ryker asked Rina about her current condition. 

 "No, I don't think I could move properly for the next two days, maybe even for a week," she replied honestly.

 Thankfully, the children were seated elsewhere, allowing them to talk about their night without them learning something too soon for them to learn. It still didn't mean he didn't subconsciously look around, worried if they were nearby.

 The rest shook their heads, slightly exasperated by his overprotectiveness in that regard. Still, it made them wonder why he was asking about Rina's ability to walk.

 "If you can't walk, then you can stay with the children. I believe with the main tournament starting today, there will be more people coming over and watching the spectacle. So, bringing the children is dangerous for them.

 As for all of you, at least you can defend yourselves so I won't be too worried if you decide to watch the tournament. But still, watch out, especially for the perverts and idiots who want to lay their hands on you," he told them, making them nod.

 After some discussion between them, it was decided that Rina and Lisha would remain with the children while the rest would come and watch the fight.

 Thankfully, Ryker had received a special projection crystal, one that linked with the main one, allowing him to see the fight even without going outside to see it on one of the bigger projection crystals or going to the arena itself.

 At least they could see the match even though not being there, which seemed to make some who were gloomy at the prospect of not seeing the tournament become excited about it once more.

 He had received a competitor token after his match, the indicator that he had won the lower bracket. From what he could tell, aside from him, the rest will have to draw a slip to determine their placement. 

 The number of people having to draw is 31, all of them are at the peak Genesis Source realm or close to it. He wondered if there was any that would provide ample challenge to him, though he was not too sure about that as all of them were likely rouge cultivators, and likely didn't have the support to get the truly powerful Cultivation Arts and Techniques.

 However, he could be wrong, so he decided to save his judgment in that regard until he could see what they were capable of with his own eyes.

 As the rest began to draw the slips, Ryker looked at the Upper Bracket champions. Both are at the 9th Stage of Genesis Source and anxious. While he won't be pulling the slip, the two have two, which will determine the one that will have to fight him and one that has to fight a peak Genesis Source expert, hence, the reason for their anxiousness.

 He wondered if it would be gone if they knew of his true strength but decided to not think about it. His match will be the first one and so the person that pulls the slip with number 1 on it will be his match.

 As he watched one of the Upper Bracket champions get up to the box, he watched calmly, a stark contrast to the shivering man, who clearly hoping to get him as his match.

 When the man pulled his slip, he opened his eyes, closing them earlier as if closing his eyes helped him pick him as his opponent. By the sigh of relief, it seemed to do the trick, the man showing his slip, a black number one on it.

 For the other man, he let out a cry of despair, before dejectedly coming up and pulling the number two slips. He then looked at his opponent, a man who looked like he could wrestle a bear if he was a mere mortal.

 The man cried once more, his despair could be heard by the spectators, who looked away from such a pathetic sight. The Duke cleared his throat, before announcing, "Now that all of the match has been set, let's give them time to prepare. The match will start in the next hour so for the fighter that has to go first, don't go running around now,"

 The Duke seemed to glance at him while saying that, like he was thinking he would be the one to flee from the fight. Hah, AS IF! Now he was more anxious for the fight to begin, so he could show what he was truly capable of.

 Unfortunately, the one-hour break is mandatory, which means he couldn't do much except for grabbing some snacks while waiting for his match to start.

 As he went to a snack corner for the fighters' use, he felt someone hold his shoulder. With a quick turn of his head, he saw the one he was supposed to fight. The man gave him a genial smile, "While I won't go easy on you, I won't hurt you too badly," the man said before leaving.

 Ryker returned the smile, though in his mind he was seething.

 'Let's see who will be the one that has to be merciful,'
