Shouts and clashes of blades reverberated through the battlefield as Reign was continuing his charge with the soldiers. Their numbers had dwindled from the original 200 to 120 soldiers. They had gone through half of the path already and were inching closer to the general. Unfortunately, the reinforcements were no weaker than the original troops they fought against and now their formation was nearing its end as most of them were getting exhausted after fighting so much.

Determination could be seen in their eyes as all of them made sure to kill as many enemies before ultimately perishing together with them. The mission was a failure, that much they were certain of, after all, even Reign, the mightiest amongst them was wounded and seemed like he wouldn't be able to last much longer. He was after all the spearhead of the formation and had to concentrate on attacking and killing while letting go of all defense.

"This seems to be as far as we can go huh, we're not even at the elite troop and we're already running out of energy," Reign says as he smiles. They had stopped after a couple of minutes as their enemies had suddenly drawn back slightly and were blocking them from moving anywhere.

"I have to commend you for your bravery soldiers!" The general suddenly speaks as he looks at Reign and the other soldiers with him. Only 90 remained now, with all of them being injured, some more heavily than others. Reign himself was bathed in blood as it trickled down his hair while he looked at the general. Cuts and bruises could be seen all over his body as his armor was badly damaged.

"I am one that loves bravery and talent, I will therefore give you a choice, join me and help me to conquer this kingdom and you will be rewarded beyond your wildest dreams, but if you still cling to your beliefs and decline then so be it, you will be crushed and killed here without any mercy."

The general gives them a cold stare as he awaits their answer. The soldiers were staring back at him as the thought of betraying their kingdom never even crossed their minds. Reign however steps forward as he smiles. The soldiers look befuddled as they stare at the back of the commander that had fought more fiercely than any of them.

"This much is enough I guess," Reign says as he clenches the weapons in his hands. Suddenly lightning erupts from him for the first time since they had started their charge. The soldiers around him step back as they were afraid of getting injured from the lightning. His swords suddenly start shinning as his Broken Sword of Dominance grows larger and returns to its original form.

His whole body and lightning start glowing a bright yellow color as his katana shines as bright as the sun.

Power.

Overwhelming power was flowing through Reign's body as he marveled at the feeling. Suddenly a trickle of blood escapes from his lips as small cracks start forming on his skin from which blood starts flowing out. The power was great, so great in fact that Reign was not able to control it as his body was currently too weak to withstand such pressure. It wasn't a problem with his stats, it was simply his overall level and evolution that was too low for it.

"Gotta be fast," Reign utters the words with a coarse voice as even talking was hard under such pressure and pain that he was feeling. In a flash, he disappears from his position as tens of soldiers in front of him get blown away from the power. A bright yellow line could be seen breaking through the encircling army as tens of soldiers died with every passing second.

The elite troop fared no better as none of them could withstand Reign's charge for even a breath of time as they get slaughtered in moments. Before the general and his two aides could even respond he was already in front of them. The two immediately swing their weapons at him, but it was for naught, even a Dark General would find it hard to withstand Reign's attacks now, not to mention two weaker opponents.

Bam!

Reign swings his two swords to meet their attacks as both their weapons and arms get blown away from the overwhelming power Reign had. With another swing, both of them were cut in half as their faces showed a look of disbelief at what had happened.

Snap!

Reign suddenly grimaces as he feels incredible pain from his two arms. Looking at them he could see they were now deformed as his bones had broken after attacking. He previously simply used his lightning stab to plow through the soldiers and felt fine, but after swinging his swords twice with full strength his bones were already broken into pieces.

The general unsheathes his sword and attacks Reign after seeing the state he was currently in. It was evident to him that the power Reign wielded was too much for him to handle. Reign looks at him with fury as dodges his attacks before barely throwing his katana in the air. Jumping up he catches the handle with his mouth before swinging his head to attack the general who barely blocks it. Spinning in the air Reign delivers an axe kick at the general's shoulder that immediately dislocates after suffering such an attack. His sword gets dropped and before he could get it he was face to face with the incoming katana.

Before he could even react, the katana had already slashed over his throat as blood starts pouring out. As the general falls down on his knees while clutching to his throat, he desperately tries to stop the bleeding as he looks at Reign with horror in his eyes. Reign's right leg suddenly emits more lightning and mana compared to the rest of his body as he kicks the general in the throat, decapitating him.

The soldiers Reign had left behind were fiercely fighting against the enemy as they looked at the enemy general's headless body falling down on the ground. They start laughing loudly while fighting their opponents with vigor, so what if they were going to die today, they managed to complete their mission, the enemy general was dead and their troops were already losing morale as even the two close aides of the general were dead.

"This should be enough I hope," Reign says as his powers deactivate. His broken, bloody body was standing on the platform next to the general's headless body as the surrounding soldiers looked at him with immense fear. His breathing was shallow as he had to struggle for each breath. His body was broken, most of his bones were shattered by the power he used while even his organs were dying. Before he could finally close his eyes and fall he gets blinded by a bright light that transports him back to the white room he was previously in.

[ The second trial has been finished, please wait for the final trial to start. ]

"I made it," Reign says as he lies down powerlessly on the ground. His body was fine, but his mental state after going through such an ordeal was awful and he needed to rest a bit.

"I wonder how the others were doing right now."

Beast was running through the jungle as he was dragging a blonde-haired man together with him. It was Goldilocks, Beast had previously captured him as the latter tried to ambush him with 3 other contestants. He was seemingly displeased by the failure of the previous men he sent to kill Beast and wanted to kill him by himself. That was of course a failure as Beast managed to kill 2 of his men rather quickly, the third one was different as Beast was surprised to see the man as he was one of the rare people Beast had considered to be a threat previously.

Beast was bleeding from his thigh as an arrow had hit him there previously. The other guy was no better as Beast managed to hit him in the stomach with one of his arrows previously. He was now using Goldilocks as a shield as the man was definitely going to kill his employer.

Beast had already managed to kill quite a lot of monsters, including two level 25 monsters that were locked in a fierce battle. Beast waited for more than 30 minutes until they were near the end of their battle to intervene and kill both of them. That however was not so easy as other contestants nearby had the same thought.

He had to fight fiercely against them before he was able to land the death blow on both of the monsters. During the struggle, he was injured slightly at a couple of places and Goldilocks found him just a couple of minutes after that. He was now thinking of how to quickly kill the pursuing man before continuing with the contest as 2 hours were left. He was definitely in the lead, as the two. level 25 mini-boss monsters were above what other contestants and he could kill in normal circumstances. It was purely out of his insanely good luck that he was able to do so before.

Tank was standing with the other soldiers as the third day of the siege was starting. The enemy army had previously suffered heavy losses while being unsuccessful in breaking through the castle. His soldiers however were not in a good state as they had no rest for the last 2 days. Small enemy teams would attack during the night as well and they needed to be on alert all the time. The loud sounds of drums beating nearby made it hard for anyone to fall asleep and they were all visibly tired.

Only a day of fighting was left, no, not even a day as their reinforcements would arrive before sundown. Tank knew this day would be the hardest and was ready to face anything the enemy will throw at him. The four elites were behind him, injured and tired. Their faces however showed firm determination and reverence towards Tank who had managed to block the entire army from attacking the gate on the first day. His soldiers looked at him like he was a god of war as he had slain multiple elite soldiers previously. Even the enemy general was having a headache every time he saw him on the wall as Tank's strength was incredible.

The sun shined brightly as the war horns were blown. The enemy was charging and it was time to fight once again. Tank held his shield and scythe as he went up the wall, ready to face them.
