Arthur regrouped with the others at the doors to the final dungeon. His body was ridden with a few wounds and bruises, but he was still as strong as a bull! Although, he couldn't enter the dungeon in his current state. Lilith had to heal everyone, then drink just a few Sun Vials to regenerate her Supreme Qi. After she was done, Lilith had everyone drink it except the resistant Arthur. She didn't bother persuading him, as Sun Vials were precious — even to her. "Okay danger alert. This domain we are about to waltz into is rated as a B rank by me. For a good reason that is." Arthur sheathed his sword and crouched, lowering himself so he could hunch over and touch the ground. Everyone seemed to be shocked after Arthur's revelation, particularly Aaron whose eyes shrank to needle points the second he heard Arthur. He seemed completely confused and a bit angry. Despite their mixed feelings, all of them did not say a word and just watched Arthur with flaring nostrils. Aaron's eyes seem

Arthur dashed towards the boss monster, glaring into it's eyes as he weaved through the metal spikes which were fired at his face. He seemed determined to attack the monster without holding back his strength. Any metal spike he was unable to dodge, he punches them without hesitation! His punch coupled with his azure flames, would shatter the spike and send the shards flying to scattered directions! The power behind each of his punches were powerful, just a single strike now would deal ten times his usual damage. This also meant it drained ten times the SQ a usual attack would drain. "Heh heh!" Arthur's eyes gleamed in a demonic light as he leapt towards the Iron Hooves, brandishing his flaring fist as his aura exploded to shroud the entire arena in a sea of majestic azure flames. “Self Taught Azure Art — Azure Hell Fist!” All the heat in the atmosphere was sucked into his fist the second it was thrown out, causing the heated temperature of the area to descend into a freezing

After one successfully awakens from their state of limited ascension, their true internal Qi is formed, and they are able to choose a path of ascension for themselves. Arthur continued coughing up blood with his back hunched over. All the external wounds he sustained had been healed, but his organs and bones were still not healed. He could feel broken bones piercing into his innards, and could only cough out in pain. Every soul has alternating requirements needed for an awakening, and this was based on that character itself and how the awakening would affect it. Most awaken through the excitement of battle or sudden explosion of pent up emotions from the soul. Some awaken through intense pain and anguish, and fewer awaken through pleasure and excitement. There are some overpowered prodigies that even awaken in their sleep with little physical and mental simulation. No matter how one awakens, they would undoubtedly suffer backlashes from breaking through the wall that surroun

Arthur dashed forward, appearing metres away and closing the distance between the Iron Hooves and himself in an instant. The ground behind him was shattered from his dash due to his risen strength. In three more steps, he arrived directly behind Aaron and Lilith, leaving everyone stunned. His speed and strength had increased from his path choice, and so had his attack power and reaction speed. Arthur dashed to the side, dodging a metal spike that would have pulverized him if his movements were just a second slower. As soon as he landed, he dashed into the monster's attack range. [Dragon Guard]!— Although he had traded all those capabilities for defense, Arthur still rocked his class as a warrior. He still had a lot more cards irregardless of the weaknesses he'd obtained from his newfound power. The Iron Hooves roared crazily as it spat out bullets of metallic bulbs at Arthur, but due to the latter's high reaction speed, he easily weaved through the attacks and pressed on wit

"Oh, they're back already. Hey, Arthur! We were just talking about you." A tall and charming young man around Arthur's age spoke up as he approached the frowning duo with a wide grin on his face. "Bran, what do you want? Get out of my way before I slam your face into the hole you crawled out of. Those two minions of yours stink." Arthur threw a glance at duo standing besides Bran, and his lip corners raised. The girl and a boy who Arthur understood to be twins stood besides the grinning Bran who flaring eyes, but they were unable to do anything rash. In the face of a student who'd already surpassed Lv3, they were trash. "Hahahaha, bulling the weak? That's not like you, my friend." Bran took a step forward and reached out his hand to touch Arthur, wearing a smirk on his face, "I wonder what you've earned from that dungeon." Arthur smacked away Bran's arm, and in the blink of an eye, his expression turned somewhat ugly. He was genuinely not too shocked that Bran would know, but t
