C18 Breakthrough
Kyle has been battling the monkey beast for two months. At the first few weeks, he was always on the defensive and could only just defend and avoid the monkey beast's attacks. Bit by bit, Kyle has started to familiarize with the monkey's attack and speed. He was starting to learn and adapt with the monkey's attacks, so defending and avoiding it was starting to get easier for him.
After a month of battling the monkey beast... Kyle's body was improving at an alarming rate, even his cultivation speed sky-rocketed and broke through the 6th stage. He felt he was really close in breaking through the 9th stage with his body.
A week later after that... Kyle's defending and dodging against the monkey beast became more fluent and easier until he finally went to the offensive. Kyle finally landed a successful blow against the monkey, but this was only a normal blow, so it wasn't really an effective one, and the beast only shrugged it off.
Kyle and the beast continued battling for the following weeks, he landed more successful blows, he even succeeded to hit the beast with his gura gura(he needs to charge for a little bit of time to use this), but even when his fist coated with haki and gura gura hit the body of the monkey beast, it only blew the beast away for a few meters.
His punch didn't leave any serious damage to the monkey beast, but Kyle was glad about this. It must be noted that he was still an 8th stage body cultivator, yet he could fight and exchange some blows against a Xiantian Realm Beast.
.....
On the first week of battling the beast... The monkey was irritated, the human kept on coming back again and again, but he was hopeless since he can't go all out and can't chase the human when he retreated.
After a month... The monkey beast started to get amused by the human's dedication. Xiantian Realm Beasts are quite smart, so it already knew that the human was using him to train. He was quite pissed that he was being used, but being pummeled and beaten every day was a very hard thing to accept especially for monster beasts like them... who was quite prideful, so when it saw the human coming back to get beaten... It got the monkey amused.
When Kyle started to land some successful blows and threw him away, the monkey started to felt threatened of the improvement of Kyle. It even wanted to go all out and kill Kyle to avoid any future problems. But he decided to go against this decision since going all out could lose some of its vitality, and this could cause a lot more damage to it in the future.
The monkey needs his whole strength in this upcoming year, so losing some of its vitality just to kill Kyle was out of the option. He has been here for a couple of years and it didn't wanna lose its chance to reap his awards just because of some human.
So the two keep on battling for a few more weeks...
Kyle started to get more confident and he landed a lot more blows, this continued until two months of battling the beast.
After two months of fighting the monkey...
Kyle was sitting in his resting area and was peacefully cultivating, he felt that he was gonna break through so he was quite happy. An hour later... He successfully broke through the 9th stage.
He felt his body's strength improved by a large margin and his speed fastened by a lot. He continued to train to adapt to his new strength. Two months of battling with the monkey gave him a really big improvement, he successfully broke-through, both of his Haki also improved due to constantly using it in these past few months.

His Kenbunshoku wasn't on the 3rd stage(seeing the future) but he was getting closer to it, he even felt that he could dodge the monkey beast successfully while closing his eyes, but he didn't do that since he doesn't wanna underestimate the enemy.
His Busoshoku was the one that improved most since he was constantly using it while getting pummeled by the monkey. He felt that his Busoshoku has stepped to the 3rd stage so he took a small tree twig and applied haki on it.
The twig hardened and became black... Seeing this made him glad since this meant that he really did step on the 3rd stage of his Busoshoku. Unfortunately, he wasn't using a weapon right now so he couldn't use his Busoshoku to its full potential. He decided that when he comes back, he would try to learn different weapons since swords weren't meant for him.
He didn't go to the monkey beast on this day since he wanted to practice and familiarize his newfound strength. After a day of practicing and familiarizing, he decided to go to the beast to fight it.
He was now confident on battling the beast, but still...he didn't let his guard down since the monkey beast was still a Xiantian Realm Beast and it may have some hidden trump cards.
....
When he arrived at the place... the monkey beast mocked him
"Ohhh... So you're still here, and here I thought you ran to your momma to cry. Wahahaha" the beast was already used to Kyle's serious appearance so every time he came, the monkey would always make fun of him.
"Oh really? Then let's see, who's gonna cry later" Kyle replied.
The two then started the fight...
The monkey beast had always initiated the fight so he jumped and dived towards him. Kyle could see the monkey clearly now, and with his Haki... He met the diving monkey head on and punched it.
When the two forces collided, the space cracked and the monkey was thrown away a few meters, Kyle also was thrown back but only a few inches away. Clearly... Kyle won the battle of strength.
When the monkey felt the force behind Kyle's punch, it was flabbergasted. The human who was beaten and played by him for these past two months has grown this much. It really felt dreaded and regretted not killing him in their first encounter.
But there wasn't a pill for regrets, so the two continued to battle. The impact of the battle resulted in a lot destruction, so the monkey tried to drew their battle away from the tree.
Sounds of *BOOM! BOOOM!! BOOM!!* could be heard in the forest, and the trees and earth were being destroyed. Everywhere they go caused mayhem on the forest.
The two continued to battle for hours. The monkey used feints and used its innate skills, but alas... it was repelled by a black fist and a crack. Two months of battling made Kyle wary of the monkey's abilities and skills, so all the tricks the monkey had was completely countered.
The monkey was starting to feel the pain in its body... It thought 'should I go all out and use it? But what if I lost a lot of vitality and failed to recover in this upcoming year? Wouldn't I waste 5 years of painstakingly waiting here? the monkey's thoughts were in disarray so it was distracted.
This created an opening for Kyle. He didn't waste this opportunity and punched the beast with all he's got. When his first hit, the monkey beast flew far away. Seeing this... He didn't stop, he ran towards the flying monkey and charged his fist with gura gura and contained it.
He wanted to punch the beast with his Atomic Fist. When the monkey beast saw this, it failed to dodge due to the pain of the last punch, so the monkey directly covered its body with its enlarged, glowing arms.
Kyle's Atomic fist hit the monkey's large, glowing arms. He meant to kill, or at least injure the monkey's insides by his Atomic Fist, but due to the monkey's fast reflex or battle instinct. It avoided fatal damage, but it still broke the bones on its hand.
The monkey then got thrown away and it coughed up a lot of blood, due to some of the force passing through its arms. The monkey beast really felt danger, so it didn't hesitate and wanted to go all out and transform.
The monkey started to shout and pumped its chest with his broken arms. The monkey was glowing and started to grow bigger, its fur started to burn with flame and the aura it gave had started to become deadlier.
Seeing this... Kyle thought 'so it is powering up huh as if I'll let you' so he dashed towards the growing and glowing monkey and send another punch.
When the monkey's transformation got interrupted, it got thrown away and coughed up a lot more blood. It then stared at Kyle with disbelief, and for once it felt scared.
