While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Sat in the interrogation room that had walls clad with some sort of special metal that he didn't recognise, Adam was relaxed as he leaned back in the chair that was in the centre of the room. 

He couldn't help but wonder whether he would be able to break out of the interrogation room if they locked him in it, since it was reinforced enough to hold most cultivators, but testing that out would only cause him more trouble. 

His Death Devouring Daggers could cut through normal metals like a hot knife through butter, but this material seemed to have been made denser and stronger. 

Whatever it was, it was impressive, but also not anything too amazing as Adam turned to the man who had entered the interrogation room and appeared to recognise him. 

Looking him up and down Adam was sure that he didn't know him, so it was unlikely that he saw through his disguise, which only meant that he seemed to recognise Liao Wei's face, that Adam had altered his face to resemble. 

"Do I know you?" Adam asked bluntly, not really caring much about who he was, and more interested in his connection to Liao Wei. 

Observing him, Adam was surprised to find that he couldn't tell exactly what cultivation level he was at, but he was sure that he was powerful, which made it even more unusual that he seemed to recognise Liao Wei. 

"Come on Liao Wei, don't tell me you forgot your old friend. And how the hell do you look so young?! And when did you even become a cultivator?!" the man exclaimed, clearly shocked out of his mind. 

Adam laughed to himself, and what a coincidence it was that Liao Wei's old friend would be someone quite capable in the Martial Arts Union. 

"Why are you laughing? And although you look younger and more handsome somehow, I am sure you are over 25 if you are the Liao Wei that I grew up with, so you are violating the rules and conditions for taking part in this tournament!" the man shouted, clearly frustrated by his old friend not seeming to recognise him, and by the fact that he was still so nonchalant despite the situation, he was in. 

Adam's eyes suddenly glowed red and a profound aura consumed the man who suddenly dropped to his knees and felt as though he was before he was kneeling before his lord. 

"Listen here. Forget about our past friendship or whatever connection you think you have to me. The man before you is someone you don't know, and you will send me back to the waiting area, since I was just defending myself. It should be the other guy who should be punished," Adam instructed, using his Charm Skill to control the mind of the mind before him. 

The man before him certainly was powerful and Adam was unsure if he could defeat him without pushing himself to his limits, but that didn't mean that his Charm Skill, aura and killing intent wouldn't have an effect on him.

Since his guard was down, believing that Adam was an old friend of his, while he couldn't fight Adam's Charisma with his willpower, he had been completely dominated.

Controlling him as much as he pleased would be difficult, and it used quite a lot of energy to get him to do so much, but Adam was satisfied so far and impressed himself by how powerful his Charm Skill was.

After retracting his aura and acting as if nothing had happened, the man immediately sprung up from the ground and had a confused expression. 

"What were we talking about again?" he asked as he scratched his head. 

Adam smiled and answered, "You were just about to let me go and were saying something about me being the victim and that I was merciful for sparing the life of that dumb fat ass."

"Um... Okay? I guess he was the one that attacked you and you only cut his leg, so there is no need for you to be sanctioned or this to be stretched any further," he said, still baffled by everything that was going on, but for some reason, feeling compelled to agree with what Adam had said. 

"So..." Adam prompted. 

"You are free to leave and I will escort you back to the waiting area," the man said as opened the door to the interrogation room and led Adam out. 

Seeing him come out of the interrogation room with the senior that they had called in to handle the situation, the woman and other Martial Arts Union cultivators that had detained Adam were shocked and confused by what was going on. 

He wasn't in cuffs and he was walking freely and confidently, making it clear that he hadn't been sanctioned, and he even seemed to be heading back to the waiting area. 

"What is going on, sir? Will he not be sanctioned, or at least disqualified from taking part?" the woman asked, who despite not having anything personally against Adam, wanted to make sure to uphold the rules of the Martial Arts Union. 

"I have spoken to him about it and from what was reported, Liao Wei here is the victim and was only defending himself. So he will return to the waiting area and rejoin the tournament," announced the man.

Seeing as he was being called sit and was the one that was called to sort out the situation, Adam was curious as to what his position was as he smiled at the woman that was clearly frustrated.

For some reason, Adam gave her a bad feeling, but she couldn't go against what her senior had decided and could see the logic behind his decision.

"Okay, sir. We will monitor the situation more closely and make sure something like this doesn't repeat itself," she announced as she moved out of the way with the group of cultivators she was leading.

With that, Adam strolled back into the waiting room casually as if nothing had happened and evidently was the centre of attention.
