While Alec closed his eyes, he was drawn once more into the dark space, this time however to witness the brutal clash between the souls of the light wolf and his shadow wolf, since he had attempted to use the light wolf to push his shadow wolf’s evolution, the two beasts were now forced to battle, each vying for conscious dominance: one to claim control, the other destined for annihilation.If the opponent had been of equal or lower realm, Midnight would have devoured it swiftly without resistance. But here, the struggle was fiercer for two clear reasons. First, the light wolf was of a higher realm, unwilling to surrender to a weaker soul. Second, Midnight had not been the one to personally slay it, which made the contest of ownership inevitable, as only the victor of this soul battle could emerge from their fusion, carrying forward a new beast in the Tier 7 realm .Yet Alec remained utterly calm, not out of indifference but because of his unshakable confidence in Midnight, he knew

The other golems who were now free itched to join the battle, however Alec quickly raised his hand, signalling them to stay back, this was his fight alongside Titan. Together, they squared off against the Light Wolf leader.The wolf no longer cared about anything else; it had just lost its entire pack in a battle it thought would be an easy victory.“I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!” the Light Wolf leader howled, its voice trembling with rage. Its bloodshot eyes locked onto Alec, unable to comprehend how everything had collapsed so swiftly, hatred burned in its heart, but regret weighed heavier. It cursed its decision to turn back for revenge. Yet no amount of regret could change the truth that its comrades and kin were dead, gone forever and there was nothing it or anyone could do about it.“Unfortunately for you, I have no intention of dying today,” Alec shouted, whipping his spiked tail forward to meet the wolf’s claw strike in an head on clash, Light Claw and a Golden hue Qi cover

Though the bat-type demonic beast appeared to be fast asleep, Alec could sense its strong mental powers spreading a few meters around it, and anyone who crossed that invisible boundary around it without caution would instantly alert the beast to their presence.The sight made Alec tense as he racked his brain for a way to eliminate the creature quickly before it could summon its comrades, the more he thought about it, however, the heavier his head felt, until he realized he had only one chance and he couldn’t afford to waste it.Gradually, his thoughts strayed beyond the usual approach, and a faint smile curved his lips.“Legion, I’ll be going out alone,” Alec announced, catching his golem off guard, Legion’s eyes widened in surprise; he hadn’t expected such a decision from his master.He had assumed Alec would summon the full squad of golems to overwhelm the beast before it could raise an alarm. After all, the golems were confident—having slain Tier 7 wolves, he believed dispatching

The next day came swiftly, and this time it wasn’t only Alec’s inner circle that gathered outside his cabin, it was the entire team representing the War God Mage Academy that stood waiting just a few meters outside his door .Terran glanced at the group of young mages who now dominated the academy’s earth ranking list, all assembled on his Mountain Peak. He couldn’t fathom why Alec held such sway over them, he was certain that if the academy itself had summoned them at such time, they wouldn’t have arrived this early. Curious, he pulled Agnes aside to ask why they were all camped so close to Alec’s room.And she explained that Alec had promised them something and had specifically asked everyone to see him before leaving the academy, only then did it click for Terran why even proud scions of ancient clans like Lucas, Pale, and Beatrice had shown up.He himself had received a bottle of mental pills from Alec, and the improvement in his condition since then left him deeply grateful.

Eventually, most of the groups had appeared, including several academies that the citizens of the Northern Kingdom had never seen before, each academy showcased unique styles, cultures, and weapons some so foreign that they are considered rare in the Northern Kingdom however it seemed like common gear to these foreign geniuses from the other four kingdoms.But soon, the excitement began to fade as fewer and fewer groups appeared, signalling that the arrivals were nearing their end.Just when everyone thought it was over, a purple spatial door materialized in the center of the arena, drawing all eyes toward it, the crowd murmured in anticipation, wondering which academy would emerge next. Citizens of the capital tried to recall if there were still any Northern academies left unannounced, while visitors from other kingdoms mentally listed which guilds, sects, or ancient clans hadn’t yet shown up.Then the first figure stepped out and the entire arena fell silent, for those from the ot
