NAME: Ivan Von Charles

Talent Group: Primal         Talent type: Wisher   Talent: Wish card

Talent lv: SS          AP: 29.05%      Rank: TRUE KING

Ivan had already crossed the Mortal King rank and was now a True King Nexulyte; the majority of rogue Nexulytes were still in this rank despite years of struggling; this showed the importance of joining a tower and having good talent.

…..

The next morning, Ivan woke up to the sound of a static voice in his room. He was sitting cross-legged as usual, he slept in this position.

[Notifying trainee No.1 that you have received 7 challenges, please decide on which of the challenges you will accept and the other trainee receive the notification immediately.

You can pick more than one challenge to accept but can not ignore all]

Said the static voice, a list of names appeared in midair the next instance.

These were the people who had challenged Ivan and wanted to take his spot, on the list were their names and current rank.

NO.3 Miko

NO.5 Damian

NO.6 Luke

NO.8 Ralph

NO. 10 Elysia

NO.7 Mark

NO.43 Glen

Ivan stared at the list of people who had challenged him. Aside from his two friends who had their own agenda for issuing a challenge, Ivan saw that there were only five people who had challenged him.

He felt…disappointed; the numbers were too small!

“Not like I can fight all of them today anyway” Ivan sighed while deciding on the ones that he would accept.

He picked Luke first; that dude had targeted him before for no reason. Ivan wasn’t the one to let go of a grudge easily. Next, he picked Damian who was ranked in fifth place.

That bald, gigantic young man always gave off a powerful feeling, and Ivan wanted to fight him. Besides, they had not interacted much so Ivan had not expected the bald guy to challenge him immediately when his period of grace was over.

The last challenge that he accepted was from Ralph, although he was already planning on losing in their fight, Ivan still wanted to see how much his friend had grown.

After accepting three challenges, the list vanished.

[The challengers have been notified and will meet with you in the arena. Failure to show up will be seen as forfeiting the match.

You may pick a trainee to challenge]

The static voice said once more, and another list appeared in front of Ivan; this list was much longer than the previous one since it contained all the trainees in the tower. Challenging others was not a must but since someone wanted to challenge him so badly, Ivan would give them a taste of their medicine.

He tapped on the screen.

[You have challenged trainee NO.3, Miko. The other party will be notified of your challenge request shortly]

[Trainee NO.3 Miko has accepted your challenge, please proceed to the arena later for the battle]

The static voice finally disappeared completely after saying this, and Ivan’s room regained its initial silence.

Ivan looked at the time; it was already past three in the morning, and there were only a few minutes left before the morning training started.

Summoning his profile, Ivan looked at his AP.

29.56%

He was now at the True King rank, and although he was still improving quickly, his speed had decreased slightly since he got stronger.

“The Nexus chamber is still very useful to me but the training room is even better since I can gather a lot of combat experience there so I guess I’ll only be visiting the Nexus chamber less frequently, staying like this for the next few months won’t cause any harm,” Ivan said to himself as he got up to put on his trainee uniform.

The trainees now had two more months in the tower, and Ivan planned to go as far as he could in the levels of the training room; he wanted to beat the record of that Alaric Vladimir guy as soon as possible.

This decision would undeniably affect his AP greatly but Ivan believed it was all for the better.

…..

In another room, a young girl with long yellow hair could be seen sitting at the edge of her bed in a blue cropped top and short pants. This person was Miko and she was currently staring at the list of challenges issued to her with a frown on her face.

She had already accepted Ivan’s challenge but was still confused as to why he had challenged her instead of just accepting her challenge; he would not get anything from challenging someone below him even if he won.

“Humph! Doesn’t matter, I’ll be taking first place today!” Miko snorted before getting dressed and tying up her hair before strolling out with both hands in her sweater pocket.

Damian, Luke, and Ralph also received the notification of Ivan accepting their challenges and quickly changed before going out of their rooms. They were not the only ones who were in anticipation for today’s matches as even people who were not challenging anyone were itching to go to the arena to have a look.

After all, today was finally the day that they would be able to see the first spot on the trainees ranking in action!

The trainees even talked about it during the morning training, it was a heated discussion.

While scaling up the slippery mountain, a figure moved closer to Ivan’s position. Although it was still dark, he was able to see just fine with his current level of strength.

The person approaching him was Sommy.

“Yo, Ivan. Xup!” Sommy called out after getting close to Ivan, Ivan was aware that this was her way of greeting.

“Good morning” he greeted back.

“So wassup with you? How are you feeling about today? Got challenged already?” Sommy asked as they climbed up with speed.

“Yeah, but why didn’t I see your challenge though? Aren’t you interested in the first position?” Ivan asked, turning to look at Sommy with raised eyebrows.

“Nah, why bother fighting you? Second place is already good enough. I’m more concerned about what to do after leaving here” Sommy responded with an easy tone.

Ivan looked at her without a change of expression, he didn’t say anything and simply continued to climb.

After their morning training, the trainees went to the cafeteria before going back to their rooms to wash up.

They had a few classes and training to attend before they could go to the arena; a lot of trainees felt their blood boiling, and they could barely stay put during their training.
