2025-06-09 13:00:31The elevator doors slid open with a hush sound. Kai stepped onto Level 10 which is the final floor of the Pit of Trial breathing slowly.
His eyes caught the glimpse of the room. As soon as Kai walked into the room, there was total silence - no monsters, no threats and not even the usual system ping. “Is this it?” Kai whispered while his eyes dart around the empty chamber in surprise. He thought it would be like other levels where enemies appear almost immediately. But this… was a different one.The room was vast, round, with dark corners but there were no visible exits. The air felt heavy and thick as it blew across Kai's face.Far away, underneath the Ironsphire academy, the Shadow Man watched while he was seated on the obsidian chair. His eyes glowed with intense fury.“He made it this far. Even picked up that poweful armor in Level 9 of the pit of trial,” he spat with disgust. “But he won’t survive this.

Chapter 38: The Hunger of Power
With the entire student body watching, Mordax Rex stood stiff, jaw clenched as Councilor Locke stared him down. “Apologize, Mordax,” Locke commanded. “Publicly. Now.” His voice came out with a horrific intense tone. Humiliation twisted Mordax’s face. He was one of the academy’s toughest academic trainers. He was respected, feared and even admired by some. But now, in front of all, he was forced to bow to the very student he once mocked. “I… apologize,” Mordax muttered. “Louder,” Locke said, his face fierce. “I was wrong about Kai Draven!” Mordax spat, venom laced in his voice. “He’s not filled with pride. He’s powerful, and he… deserves our respect.” He expressed with a sullen face. Gasps rippled through the crowd. Some students laughed. Others clapped. Mordax turned, fists trembling at his sides, and stormed off in silence. As the crowd dispe
Chapter 37: The Pit’s Final Secret
Silence fell over the shattered chamber of Level 10. The students watched in anticipation.As the clash explosion smoke slowly faded, only one figure squeezed. His fist clenched.Kai rose to his feet. His body was bruised while breathed heavily, but stood and his feet didn't tremble. His opponent, the dominion-tier dwarf, crumbled into dust and vanished into the light. At that same moment, Kai’s sword reappeared, materializing in his hand as if summoned by his victory.Outside in the Observation Hall, gasps turned into cheers. Students jumped from their seats and some shouted in disbelief. “He did it!” Xiren Wren echoed from where she sat. “Kai Draven actually survived!” Darius Vane's lips curved with excitement.“Wait… wasn’t that a Dominion Tier?! Why wasn’t it just a God-tier like usual? Something’s not right…” One of the students became suspicious.Amid the confusion and celebrat
Chapter 36: The Trial of Pride
Outside the Pit of Trial, a massive crowd of students had gathered in the Observation Hall. They were watching how the final level unfold on a giant broadcast screen. “Wow! He made it to Level 10?” A student expressed surprise. “That’s so Impossible, I can't believe my eyes. No one ever survives the Pit.” Another student narrowed in concern. “Especially not with a Dominion Tier fighting relentlessly.”Whispers turned into anxious murmurs as they watched Kai fall motionless beneath the dwarf’s final strike. Gasps erupted. Some even began to turn away. They believed it was over.Far beneath the Ironsphire academy, the Shadow Man leaned back in his throne, laughing coldly when he saw the downfall of Kai. “It’s done. The boy is finished.” He echoed victoriously.But within the Pit, Kai’s eyes suddenly snapped open. Whenever things like this happen to Kai, he always feels the pain. But something changed.

Chapter 34: The Monk’s Fist, The Warrior’s Flame
The system pinged. ‘Alert!Warning: Enemy Combatant Detected to be at Level 9 Ascension Protocol.Opponent Class: Monk of the Forbidden Fist.’After the echo of the system in his head, Kai's muscles tensed. He rose slowly from the cracked ground, blood drying on his lips. Before him, the old monk stood calm and poised, not even breaking a sweat. “Let’s see if you can withstand the fists of time,” the monk said while his eyes glowed faintly.They launched at each other, fist to fist, no weapons, no magic. Only raw strength. Kai threw a flurry of punches. But the monk blocked it, pairred and redirected it.Then…WHAM! The monk’s palm struck Kai squarely in the gut. A system-enhanced blow that vibrated through Kai’s bones. Kai dropped like a stone.Before Kai could catch his breath, the monk stomped his foot on his back in a very fierce way. Kai felt his bone crack and the echo went thro
Chapter 33: Winds of Despair
Kai groaned as he tried to rise to his feet, but the pressure of the wind pushed him back down like an invisible hand. The wind howled through the chamber like a screaming banshee.Before him, the monstrous figure stepped forward with the storm radiating around it. A tall wind elemental beast, humanoid in form but wrapped in eternal rush of wind. Its voice thundered through the room.“This is your end.” He echoed.Without moving, the monster’s eyes glowed and in an instant, a blazing wind-laced laser blasted from its gaze and it struck Kai’s arm.“Ahrgh!” He cried out, but the System chimed almost immediately.‘System alert!Immortality Skill Tree: Regeneration Active… Damage Repair in Progress…’After the echo from the system, Kai's skin knitted and his bones were reformed. The pain dulled.But Still, the wind wouldn’t let him rise.Kai was angry. He wanted to d
