As the Sky King Golden Eagle kept attacking, terrified screams rose from every corner of Star City."Heavens… It's attacking nonstop!""Is the city barrier going to hold?!"On the other hand, Riven clenched his fists tightly. His heart was pounding wildly. He could clearly feel the defensive formation weakening.Crack~It didn't take long before a faint, brittle sound echoed through the air.At first, it was barely noticeable. But soon, thin spiderweb-like fractures appeared on the surface of the blue light barrier, spreading outward from the point of impact.Crack… crack…The cracks multiplied, branching rapidly like broken glass.Seeing this, Everyone in the city was stunned. Lucan and Riven's pupils shrank violently."The barrier… It's cracking!"The Sky King Golden Eagle seemed to sense it as well. Its eyes lit up with savage excitement, and it released a shrill roar before gathering its strength once more.By now, due to all those cracks that appeared on the city barrier, panic h

"Damn it… what makes Orin so great anyway? If not for that overpowered family backing him, he'd be nothing more than another ordinary student."Lucan spat through clenched teeth, fists trembling at his sides. He turned toward Riven. His eyes were blazing with frustration and unwillingness."Riven, don't let someone like that get to you. I believe in you... really. With your talent and perseverance, you'll definitely become an Awakening Realm warrior someday. Maybe even stronger."Lucan's voice grew firm as he continued speaking, "When that day comes, I want to see whether Orin still has the nerve to look down on you like that."Moments earlier, Orin's overwhelming presence had left Lucan momentarily stunned. But now that the arrogant young master had driven away, the anger he'd been suppressing finally burst forth.Riven, however, showed no visible reaction. His face remained calm, almost eerily so."I'm fine. Let's go, Lucan."Riven didn't speak much. Instead, he simply turned around

Somewhere far away from the Soft Breeze Zone...Ding! Ding! Ding!A clear, penetrating chime echoed across the entire campus.Almost instantly, streams of students poured out of the spotless white teaching buildings lined with jade-green borders.What had been a quiet, orderly academy moments ago erupted into lively chatter and the sound of footsteps. Groups of three and five gathered together, laughing and discussing their day as they made their way toward the school gates.Above the central teaching complex of Windy Blade Academy, an enormous golden time bell rested on the roof, its surface faintly glowing with runes. The crystal display embedded within it showed the hour clearly. It was two in the afternoon.Classes were officially over.Among the departing crowd, two boys walked side by side.One of them was tall and broad-shouldered, with a sturdy frame that hinted at frequent physical training. His eyes were bright with youthful ambition.He suddenly spoke, “Riven, how have thin

Five hours later, Cedric's figure reappeared in the familiar crystal plaza of the Mirror Battlefield.Soft light faded from around his body, and the ambient hum of Mirror Space returned to his ears. He stood there for a moment, letting his breathing settle, then opened the floating interface in front of him.A line of glowing text immediately caught his attention.[Battle Record: 10 Matches, 10 Victories.][Total Rewards Earned: 350,000 Credits.]Cedric stared at the numbers for a second, then let out a quiet breath. A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips.Three hundred and fifty thousand Credits.It wasn't a huge sum by Mirror Space standards, barely enough to cover a few days in the Mirror Battlefield, but to Cedric, who had started with almost nothing, it felt like a meaningful first step.More importantly, it wasn't just about the Credits.His body still carried the lingering warmth of combat. His muscles felt tighter, and his reactions had become sharper. Through those te

After a brief moment of hesitation, Cedric clenched his teeth. No matter how expensive it was, sitting idle wouldn't make him stronger.After thinking for a while, he headed straight for the Mirror Battlefield. He already had an idea of what to do next.The starting point of the Mirror Battlefield was actually a massive transition platform.Countless spatial runes rotated slowly beneath one's feet, while towering energy pillars rose into the sky above. Hundreds of teleportation gates were around the platform, each leading to a different combat arena.It was here that all participants were scanned, matched, and dispatched.The moment he confirmed entry, the scenery around him blurred. Streams of light wrapped around his body, and the bustling streets of Mirror Space faded away.Whoosh—His vision cleared again inside a vast circular plaza formed from translucent crystal. Above him, floating runic symbols slowly rotated, while countless portals shimmered along the edges of the platform.

Inside a training room temporarily assigned to Cedric within Julian's villa in Varn City, Cedric sat cross-legged near one corner. His breathing was steady as he slowly calmed his thoughts. A faint glow pulsed from the Universe Bracelet around his wrist as he willed his consciousness to connect.[Connecting to Mirror Space…]A deep, majestic voice echoed through his mind.For an instant, everything went black.Then, countless streaks of color surged forward like a rushing tide.When his vision cleared, Cedric found himself standing in the middle of an ancient-looking city. Massive stone buildings lined both sides of the wide streets, their surfaces marked by erosion and cracks left behind by countless years. The air carried a strange blend of vitality and age, as if history itself lingered in every corner.People could be seen everywhere on the streets.They varied wildly in height, skin tone, and features, clearly belonging to many different races.Whoosh!Amid the bustling crowd, a
