The only way to upgrade before the finals was to use the 200x accelerated time flow in the Time Tower.
Without a moment's delay, Li Wen vanished from the villa.
He transformed into a streak of light, heading straight for the Time Tower in the core area of the Source Net branch.
Thanks to his second-place rank on the total ranking list and his pre-booked time slot, he entered a core cultivation chamber with almost no waiting.
The heavy metal door closed silently behind him.
Li Wen didn't hesitate, immediately pushing the time flow multiplier to its maximum limit of 200x.
The surrounding space was instantly enveloped by an even denser layer of temporal energy, and the sensation of time's passage became vague and distant.
Once the 200x flow rate had completely stabilized,
Li Wen sat down cross-legged, focused his mind, and adjusted his condition to its peak.
'Let's begin.'
With a thought, he decisively sent the upgrade command to the panel.
