What language should I move to from python?

I am wondering whether I should switch to C++ or another language from python. I have been coding python for around 4 years (not just vex). I also know some Java. I do a local non-official vex competition, which has no auton, and the main event is sumo battles. There is also a speed event, where you have to drive a course fast, and a timed task, both of which can give you byes in the sumo bracket. Most teams are not super technical and in middle school. I have only ever seen 4 wheel drives (and a few 6 wheelers or tanks), and around 40% of bots are lightly modified clawbots. I have not gone very deep into programming complicated stuff for vex other than playing with building guis. Are there any libraries that allow drawing on the controller screen beyond just text? I am interested in learning another language, and maybe doing more complex stuff for fun.
