00:00:03I transmigrated into a world where spirits exist.
00:00:06In this world, everyone can connect with Spirit Galaxy and make packs with spirits.
00:00:10I had failed for three years in a row.
00:00:13Even the girl who once liked me has cut ties with me.
00:00:16She didn't know that although I couldn't connect with Spirit Galaxy, I could connect with Mythic Galaxy.
00:00:27Take this!
00:00:31Evan Carson, Awakening failed.
00:00:34Evan Carson, Awakening failed.
00:00:36Evan Carson, Awakening failed.
00:00:39This is already your third year.
00:00:41Next year will be your last chance.
00:00:44If you fail again, then I'm sorry.
00:00:49I'm Evan Carson.
00:00:51I transmigrated into a world where everyone can try to connect with Spirit Galaxy and become a spirit binder.
00:00:57But I've already failed three times.
00:01:00Clearly, I'm no genius.
00:01:02I'm just a loser.
00:01:06Evan, don't be sad.
00:01:08I'm no better.
00:01:09Everyone in our dorm is a loser.
00:01:12Tomorrow is your last chance to awaken.
00:01:14If you f***ed...
00:01:17...f***ed...
00:01:17...f***ed...
00:01:18...f***ed...
00:01:18...f***ed...
00:01:18...f***ed...
00:01:18...f***ed...
00:01:22...f***ed...
00:01:32...f***ed...
00:01:33...che保渕.
00:01:39...f***ed...
00:01:40He'll hit you every time he sees you.
00:01:42So...
00:01:43...just stay in the dorm today.
00:01:45Don't go anywhere.
00:01:46At least, you won't get beaten.
00:01:48Alright.
00:01:49I'll go grab some food for you.
00:01:51Those who fail to become spirit binders are doomed to be crushed.
00:02:00One more try.
00:02:01I refuse to believe I can't connect to spirit galaxy.
00:02:15I still can't do it.
00:02:18Congratulations, host. You have connected with Mythic Galaxy.
00:02:22This?
00:02:24Is this spirit galaxy?
00:02:27No, this isn't spirit galaxy.
00:02:30Spirit galaxy has tens of millions of stars.
00:02:32This one has only about 1,000.
00:02:34The colors of these stars are unusual.
00:02:36Host, this isn't spirit galaxy.
00:02:40Host? System?
00:02:42I awakened a system?
00:02:44Yes. Host, this is Mythic Galaxy.
00:02:48You can commune with Mythic Figures and make them your spirits.
00:02:52Mythic Figures?
00:02:54How do I commune with them?
00:02:56This is...
00:03:01I'm...
00:03:02The Great Sage!
00:03:09Ah! What's going on?
00:03:10Why has the sky gone dark?
00:03:12What intense pressure?
00:03:14I...
00:03:14I can't breathe.
00:03:16Mr. Flynn, just...
00:03:18This is...
00:03:19A celestial phenomenon.
00:03:21What terrifying power.
00:03:23Someone just connected with an extraordinary spirit.
00:03:26My gosh.
00:03:27The Dean and every teacher have come out.
00:03:29What happened?
00:03:30Has Barry broken through again?
00:03:32Only he could create such a spectacle.
00:03:35Impossible.
00:03:36He awakened long ago.
00:03:38This kind of anomaly only appears on the first contact with the spirit.
00:03:42Someone's about to achieve greatness.
00:03:49Such overwhelming pressure.
00:03:51Quick! Evacuate the students.
00:03:52Go back to our dormant ones.
00:03:54Don't come out.
00:03:55Violators will be severely punished.
00:03:57This level of phenomenon?
00:04:00Has our academy ever had anyone like this?
00:04:03This power is wild and unrestrained.
00:04:06It isn't part of any known spirit cluster.
00:04:10What in the world is this?
00:04:30What is that?
00:04:33Sacred light?
00:04:34Yes, it's sacred light.
00:04:36Is this the spirit of the unparalleled genius?
00:04:39Our academy is about to produce another divinely blessed.
00:04:44What spirit is this?
00:04:45It feels ancient.
00:04:57Two?
00:04:58How are there two spirit projections?
00:05:01I've got a demon.
00:05:03It defies the rule of awakening.
00:05:13Peace be with you.
00:05:15Today, I'll lead you to transcendence.
00:05:22Transcendence?
00:05:24I'm the great sage.
00:05:27I'm free and unrestrained.
00:05:30Nothing can stop me.
00:05:32Why should I be bound by your commandments?
00:05:35You have no power over me.
00:05:39He refused.
00:05:41Is he insane?
00:05:44Foolish.
00:05:45It's a blessing to be granted salvation by such a sacred being.
00:05:50How dare he act so arrogantly?
00:05:53What a fool.
00:05:54The great sage?
00:05:56What an arrogant title.
00:05:58But his resolve is unyielding.
00:06:01The world is full of suffering.
00:06:04Turn back before it's too late.
00:06:06Today, I'll lead you to your fate.
00:06:12Don't blame me for being ruthless.
00:06:16Try me.
00:06:18Take this.
00:06:26No.
00:06:27The pressure is crushing.
00:06:34Set up Astro Defense Array at once.
00:06:37We must lock it.
00:06:45Come on.
00:06:49Shatter!
00:07:11So, the first spirit I awakened is the great sage?
00:07:18Yes.
00:07:19The host can access the system panel at any time to view awakened mythic figures.
00:07:24Access now.
00:07:25Yes.
00:07:33It's...
00:07:34It's the great sage.
00:07:36I've really awakened him.
00:07:39Congratulations.
00:07:41You've awakened your first mythic spirit, the great sage beginner form.
00:07:45You have gained part of the great sage's powers.
00:07:48First, durable body.
00:07:49Second, golden rod.
00:07:51Third, superhuman strength.
00:07:53Most importantly, if the conditions are met, you can awaken mythic spirits without limit.
00:07:57Unlimited awakening?
00:07:59This is the system's most god-like feature.
00:08:01For now, I only have the great sage's beginner level power.
00:08:05It's far from enough.
00:08:06To unlock his full power and awaken more mythic spirits, I have to get stronger, fast.
00:08:12System, how do I evolve my spirit to gain more of the great sage's power?
00:08:16First, hunt spirit beasts.
00:08:19Second, obtain spirit crystals.
00:08:21Third, hunt spirit binders.
00:08:23Fourth, use currency crystals.
00:08:25Hunt spirit beasts.
00:08:26And even spirit binders?
00:08:31Ivan, today's the last day.
00:08:33Come, let's grab some good food.
00:08:36If we don't awaken today, we won't qualify for tomorrow's assessment.
00:08:40We'll never get to eat food this good again.
00:08:43Today, we should eat to our heart's content.
00:08:46Paul, don't worry.
00:08:47The best days are still ahead of us.
00:08:50What do you mean?
00:08:51Let's go.
00:09:00Well, if it isn't the infamous loser, Evan, how dare you show up here?
00:09:07Uh, there's, there's, we're just here to eat.
00:09:10We'll leave right after and won't bother you at all.
00:09:14You have no right to speak.
00:09:16Get lost.
00:09:18Evan, Barry told us to hit you whenever we see you.
00:09:23If you end up dead, you'll take responsibility.
00:09:25Don't blame me.
00:09:27Blame yourself for running into us.
00:09:31Oh, Darius, I beg you.
00:09:33The awakening test takes place today.
00:09:36Please show mercy.
00:09:37Please don't hate him.
00:09:39I'll apologize.
00:09:40Please, I beg you.
00:09:42Shut up.
00:09:43Get lost.
00:09:47You're courting death.
00:09:50Did you all hear that?
00:09:53This loser said, I'm courting death.
00:09:58That figures.
00:09:59If you dare write a love letter to Sally, what else wouldn't you dare to do?
00:10:09Stop pretending to be tough.
00:10:12Stop.
00:10:18Stop.
00:10:23Sally, why are you here?
00:10:25This kid provoked us first.
00:10:28We had no intention of fooling him.
00:10:30Really?
00:10:31We were just joking.
00:10:33Enough.
00:10:34You don't have to explain to me.
00:10:36I'm fully aware of how you've been picking on Evan.
00:10:39I don't want this to happen again.
00:10:41Got it?
00:10:43Yes.
00:10:44Good.
00:10:44You can leave now.
00:10:51I handled the situation, so they won't bother you anymore.
00:10:55But there's one condition.
00:10:56You really need to stop it with liking me.
00:11:01Evan, you need to know we're worlds apart.
00:11:05Indeed.
00:11:07We're worlds apart.
00:11:12What?
00:11:13What?
00:11:14Such terrifying pressure.
00:11:17Am I imagining it?
00:11:19No.
00:11:20That world destroying power was absolutely real.
00:11:25Evan, what's going on?
00:11:27No.
00:11:27I must be overthinking.
00:11:29He failed to awaken for three years.
00:11:31How can he have such power?
00:11:33Forget it.
00:11:35Tomorrow's test will reveal if he awakens a spirit.
00:11:39There's no point in speculating.
00:11:44Evan, Paul, Sally saved you today.
00:11:48But she can't always be there when that time comes.
00:11:56Oh no.
00:11:58I'll let my student ID in the room.
00:11:59There's still time.
00:12:01You can go back and get it.
00:12:03All right.
00:12:04All right.
00:12:04You line up first.
00:12:05I'll be right back.
00:12:07Hope your awakening goes well.
00:12:10Look.
00:12:10It's Evan.
00:12:11The loser who's failed for three years is here too.
00:12:14What a waste of a slot.
00:12:15Exactly.
00:12:16He's likely here just to watch.
00:12:18If he awakens, I'll swallow the awakening stone.
00:12:20Next, Evan Carson.
00:12:28What's going on?
00:12:30How could he awaken?
00:12:31Such an overwhelming presence.
00:12:34Evan Carson successfully awakened.
00:12:37The test's almost over.
00:12:38Why hasn't Paul come back yet?
00:12:42Hurry.
00:12:43Get a doctor.
00:12:45Someone's dying.
00:12:47How did this happen?
00:13:03Wake up.
00:13:04Make way.
00:13:07There's no saving him.
00:13:09He was killed by a spiritual backlash triggered by forced awakening.
00:13:14What did you say?
00:13:16Didn't you hear?
00:13:17He died from a forced awakening.
00:13:20Forced awakening?
00:13:22Tell me.
00:13:23How did he get all these wounds?
00:13:25Who'd force an awakening on the street?
00:13:29Answer me.
00:13:30How exactly did he die?
00:13:34I'm the doctor.
00:13:35I already said it.
00:13:36He died from a spiritual backlash.
00:13:50He died from a forced awakening.
00:13:56How did he die?
00:13:58He was beaten to death.
00:14:01Someone beat him to death.
00:14:04Bastard.
00:14:07Get lost.
00:14:15Evan.
00:14:17I...
00:14:17I...
00:14:18I saw it.
00:14:19It was Darius.
00:14:21I saw Darius and his gang Corner Paul here.
00:14:27Very well, Darius. Darius, you'll pay for this.
00:14:46I'm aware of Paul's death. Why force an awakening on the street?
00:14:54What a tragedy. Enough. The Academy will compensate his family. This matter ends here.
00:15:03He was covered in injuries. Every bone was broken. How could that be a forced awakening?
00:15:08Besides, who forced an awakening on the street?
00:15:12In this Academy, whatever I say is final. Paul forced an awakening and died from a spiritual backlash.
00:15:19That's the fact. You'd better remember it. Otherwise...
00:15:32System, come out.
00:15:34Host, how can I help?
00:15:36I need the strength to take on the whole Academy.
00:15:40Please specify the targets.
00:15:42Darius Hayes, Barry Lange, the doctor who twists the truth, and all those who shield criminals.
00:15:47I want to take on the entire Academy.
00:15:51Only one plan is available. Success probability unknown. Risk is exceptionally high. Confirm execution?
00:15:57Yes. Whatever the risk.
00:16:00Plan initiated. You must enter the mental realm to commune with the will of the Great Sage.
00:16:05If you earn his recognition, his true spirit will fuse with you. Then, you'll acquire the Great Sage's true power.
00:16:17The Great Sage.
00:16:20When I joined the Academy four years ago, my spiritual core was dormant. Everyone mocked and picked on me.
00:16:27Only Paul, that foolish chubby guy, treated me as a friend. When I had no money for food, he gave
00:16:33me half of his drumstick.
00:16:34When I was cornered, he stood in front of me, taking blow after blow. He always smiled and said this
00:16:43to me.
00:16:44Heaven, you'll be someone great one day. I'll take the blues for now. You'll cover me later.
00:16:49Timid as he was, he fought again and again to protect me. He was in pain. Yet he smiled and
00:16:57comforted me, saying it didn't hurt.
00:17:01But now, he's dead. Those bastards beat him to death. But the Dean said he died from a spiritual backlash.
00:17:12This is so unfair. The Great Sage. She once fought against injustice. Tell me.
00:17:23Faded with such injustice, should I avenge my friend? Do I bring down this Academy that twists the truth? Do
00:17:30I stand against its rotten rules?
00:17:51Darius, I'm coming for you. Just you wait.
00:18:00Hey, isn't that Evan? What is he carrying?
00:18:03It looks like Paul. Wasn't Paul dead? What's he up to? He's gone mad.
00:18:11Evan. Evan.
00:18:18I'm sorry about your friend. But the grand assessment is today. The ceremony is important. Please consider the bigger picture.
00:18:27And think before acting. After the assessment, I'll make sure you get justice.
00:18:32Get lost.
00:18:32What did you say? Say it again.
00:18:35I said, get lost.
00:18:40Evan.
00:18:41How dare you? Speak to me that way.
00:18:49It's him. Evan. He actually brought Paul's body over.
00:18:54What is he trying to do? This is outrageous.
00:18:57Stop him. This is no place for nonsense.
00:19:11Evan. Evan. What are you doing?
00:19:13Fighting for justice.
00:19:15What justice? Enough. The first match is you versus Darius. Are you still competing?
00:19:21Of course. Paul. I'll avenge you.
00:19:25Evan. Evan. Even if you've awakened a spirit, you're only a four-star spirit binder. You're no match for me.
00:19:32What? You think that faint glow of yours is enough to stand against me? Listen. Pause. That was my doom.
00:19:45I ended his life. Today, you'll meet the same fate.
00:19:51What? Go to hell. Goldenrod. Superhuman strength.
00:20:02What? This... What kind of power is this?
00:20:08No! My son, Darius!
00:20:19Who's... Next?
00:20:25How... How is this possible? A seven-star spirit binder like Darius was taken down in one blow by Evan,
00:20:31who's only a four-star?
00:20:32Four-star spirit binder? How did he do it? That's a full three-level gap!
00:20:38Forget about how he did it. This is an academy. How dare he kill someone?
00:20:42You insolent brat. This is the grand assessment. How dare you commit murder here?
00:20:47Murder? Just yesterday...
00:20:50A student was murdered in this academy. Why did you stay silent then?
00:20:54The academy has always been judged. What are we talking about? The academy has already settled the matter of post
00:20:59-s.
00:20:59Settled? By insisting a forced awakening caused his death?
00:21:03Go!
00:21:04The academy has only been fair to celestial tier and terrestrial tier students.
00:21:08I don't get what you mean.
00:21:10I've been here three years. There are 19,000 base tier students. We get the worst meals and the crummiest
00:21:17storms. Is that fair?
00:21:18Base tier students are bullied by celestial tier students. In three years, more than 10,000 base tier students were
00:21:24bullied. How is that fair?
00:21:26The academy lashes out whenever a celestial tier student is injured. When base tier students die, no one cares! You
00:21:32call this fair?
00:21:33Enough! Enough! Whatever you say. You killed someone during the grand assessment. This is a violation of the rules. You
00:21:39will be severely punished.
00:21:42Severely punished?
00:21:44That's right. Today, you must be dealt.
00:21:47Mr. Baker!
00:21:48What do you want?
00:21:49Mr. Baker, you haven't answered Evan's question.
00:21:52What question?
00:21:53Is fairness only for celestial tier students?
00:21:56Don't make me dispel you!
00:21:58So fairness has been a right only for celestial tier and terrestrial tier students.
00:22:02Paul is dead. He died here, at the academy, before all the teachers and students. He was beaten to death.
00:22:10But no one in the academy demanded justice for him.
00:22:14This is fair, you say? This is tolerance! It's indulgence! It's bias towards celestial tier students and abuse of base
00:22:22tier students.
00:22:22Mr. Baker, where's the justice in that?
00:22:25That's right. Base tier students like us have never been treated fairly.
00:22:28Exactly!
00:22:29If we don't act for Paul, then when we're bullied, or even killed, who will defend us?
00:22:37Mr. Baker, I want justice!
00:22:39Xavier, you think I won't act against you? You're only on your own. Don't make me!
00:22:44I want justice!
00:22:48What? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to rebel?
00:22:52I demand justice from the academy!
00:22:54You!
00:22:55I demand justice from the academy!
00:22:57We will ensure a fair ruling on Paul's death. Everyone, calm down.
00:23:03Justice? Are they worthy of justice?
00:23:07If the academy won't deal with them, then I will.
00:23:12Someone!
00:23:14Execute anyone who disrupts public order.
00:23:18What happens today will serve as a warning to all.
00:23:22You losers dare ask for justice?
00:23:24In the face of my father's army, you amount to nothing.
00:23:28If the academy refuses to act, I'll take action myself.
00:23:33Wait!
00:23:34Sally, what is it?
00:23:35You have no right to question me.
00:23:39Evan, stop!
00:23:40Don't make this worse. It won't end well for you.
00:23:43Look at the troops outside. If they take action, the students who supported you will be slaughtered.
00:23:49Listen to me. Submit now. Even if you're taken away, I'll do all I can to keep you safe.
00:23:54That's none of your business.
00:23:56Why are you being so stubborn?
00:23:57I told you already. We're worlds apart. They wanna fight? Let them try!
00:24:04You should all leave. I'll handle it alone.
00:24:07Evan?
00:24:08Trust me!
00:24:09Okay. Be careful.
00:24:14The Great Sage. Let's put an end to this injustice together.
00:24:38What tear is the spirit? My spirit... is trembling.
00:24:44Pressure? This pressure? It feels like my bones are breaking. Terrestrial tear? No. This is far beyond terrestrial tear.
00:24:52Mr. Baker, the Academy's defense array. Quick, activate it.
00:24:56It's useless. This power is overwhelming and absolute. It's sealed off all the Academy's spiritual energy knots. The array can
00:25:03be activated.
00:25:04What? Evan, how is this possible?
00:25:08It's just tricks. All units, heed my command. Attack! Eliminate him!
00:25:13Anyone who stands in my way will die.
00:25:24No. Again.
00:25:35Stay! Stay away! You monster! Demon! Stay away!
00:25:41Darius may have killed Paul, but you're the one behind it.
00:25:50My friend died because of you. Today, you must pay with your life!
00:25:56No! Don't! Evan, I was wrong. I'm sorry. Please, spare me. I'll give you whatever you want. Money? Status?
00:26:04My father is the deputy governor. He can give you anything!
00:26:07I only want life.
00:26:10Father! Save me!
00:26:12Stop!
00:26:16Father! You're finally here!
00:26:18Quick! Save me! Kill him! Kill this monster!
00:26:22It's the deputy governor, Henry Lang. He's a supreme binder.
00:26:26My gosh! Such terrifying pressure!
00:26:29However strong Evan may be, he's only a four-star spirit binder.
00:26:35My son and Quintin? You've got guts!
00:26:39You hear that, loser? My father's here. You're dead. Come! Hit me!
00:26:50Bustard! You! How dare you kill my son!
00:26:55Killing your son was nothing. I'll kill you as well.
00:27:08How? How is this possible? Is this the same Evan I knew?
00:27:13Evan, stop dreaming. Someone like you, who can't awaken, will stay at the bottom forever.
00:27:20Stay away from me. I won't let a loser like you hold me back. We're worlds apart.
00:27:26What have I done?
00:27:31He awakened an ancient spirit. His potential will surpass all imagination.
00:27:36Perhaps, as I once said, we really are worlds apart.
00:27:43Mr. Lang has been killed. No one move. Seal the perimeter. The murderer is inside. Surround him.
00:27:53Time's almost up for the great sage's true form. I can only retreat for now.
00:27:57The great sage. Ha ha! Got it!
00:28:03What? What is that?
00:28:05Cloud? He summoned a cloud?
00:28:09Paul, let's go.
00:28:15Breaking news. After Deputy Governor Henry Lang's sudden death, the Internal Affairs Bureau has made a major breakthrough in their
00:28:21investigation.
00:28:22A search of his secret estate uncovered evidence of his crimes of bribery and extortion.
00:28:27Paul, are you watching? That bastard Henry won't ever rest in peace.
00:28:33I finally got revenge for you. Back at the academy. Everyone looked down on me. You were the only one
00:28:40who had my back.
00:28:41I'll never forget what you did for me. Don't worry. I'll live a good life for both of us.
00:28:46I'll compete in the Aegis Grand Trials and get stronger. I'll get strong enough so no one can ever mistreat
00:28:51us again.
00:29:00Hey, dear lad. You look like a nice person. Could you do me a favor and treat me to another
00:29:05meal?
00:29:06The food here tastes decent, but the portions are way too small.
00:29:09What a strange duo. A gorgeous beauty and a disheveled old man.
00:29:12While this old man looks messy, his gaze holds something different. He's no ordinary man.
00:29:16Sir, please sit. This must be fate. Over here, serve us more beef and wine.
00:29:21Excellent. You have a keen eye and a heart of gold. In return for the food, how about I read
00:29:27your fortune?
00:29:28No amount of money can buy my reading. Is that so? In that case, I'm in your debt.
00:29:34Now that I've had my fill, it's time for business. Lad, give me your hand.
00:29:53Hey, are you alright? I can't read it. I can't read your fortune. Your fate isn't written in the stars.
00:30:01You exist beyond this world entirely. If I pry any further, I'll face divine retribution.
00:30:06What exactly did you see?
00:30:08I risked my own lifespan and power to steal a glimpse of the Heaven's secrets. I only found a prophecy
00:30:14written into his fate.
00:30:15What was it?
00:30:16The source of ruin and the ruler of ages.
00:30:20Huh?
00:30:24Sir, thanks for the reading. As for the prophecy, let's just call it a tall tale. See you around.
00:30:30A tall tale. If Heaven's secrets are just a tall tale, then I fear there's no truth left in this
00:30:37entire world.
00:30:39The source of ruin and the ruler of ages. Despite his eccentric nature, that old man's power is undeniable. Looks
00:30:48like my future is going to be a mess.
00:30:50Still, it's pointless to dwell on cryptic prophecies. I'd rather focus on reality. After killing 10,000 foes, my experience
00:30:57points have skyrocketed.
00:31:00The golden rod previously weighed only 200 pounds. Now it weighs 2,000 pounds. My strength has increased by 10
00:31:07times. Not only have I been a sky strider, it seems like I could summon it on my own now.
00:31:15Come!
00:31:16What? Although the energy cost is quite a divine survival technique.
00:31:25On top of that, it seems I've unlocked a weird new divine technique.
00:31:32Divine scent? I can track down treasures with this skill. Of course the Great Sage would have this ability.
00:31:38When he was plundering the heavenly treasures, he must have relied on this divine skill to avoid getting caught.
00:31:47Looks like this is it. A spirit tree and its fruit. And a spirit beast guarding it.
00:31:52The divine scent really lives up to its reputation.
00:31:56Lonely human. How dare you trespass into my domain.
00:32:03There's room for another skeleton in my collection.
00:32:07I'm here to take the fruit.
00:32:12You ignorant fool. This is a 1,000 year Aeon fruit. I've guarded it for 300 years. I won't let
00:32:21a mere insect defile it. If you value your life, get lost.
00:32:25I guess there's nothing more to say.
00:32:30Trespasser, prepare to die.
00:32:34Too slow.
00:32:42This power is incredible. My cultivation is breaking through.
00:32:48Nine star spirit binder.
00:32:50Nine star spirit binder.
00:32:52State your name, background, and cultivation tier.
00:32:56Evan Carson.
00:32:56Place your hand on the soul stone.
00:33:02Whoa. To think a young man like you is already a nine star spirit binder. You've got a bright future.
00:33:08Thanks.
00:33:08Here's your identity token.
00:33:11Got it.
00:33:15Evan? Why are you here?
00:33:19It's none of your business.
00:33:21Evan, we both came from Quentin after all.
00:33:24We share the same roots. Why treat me like a stranger?
00:33:28He seems much stronger than he was back in Quentin.
00:33:32However, his arrogant attitude won't get him very far.
00:33:37Sally.
00:33:37Prince Ethan.
00:33:38What's wrong? Did you see someone you know?
00:33:40No. I was mistaken.
00:33:42Let's go. The trials are starting soon.
00:33:46Welcome to the Aegis Grand Trials.
00:33:49I'm sure you all know the rules.
00:33:51Today, you will face the heavenly steps.
00:33:55Built by an ancient saint, this trial has two purposes.
00:33:59First, to test your talent.
00:34:02Second, to forge your resolve.
00:34:05There are 120 levels in total, each radiating the ancient saint's supreme pressure.
00:34:12According to his final wishes,
00:34:15any descendant who surpasses the 100th level will receive the supreme treasure he left behind.
00:34:22The ancient saint's gift. I must seize it.
00:34:26Are these the heavenly steps?
00:34:28I heard the 95th level is the furthest anyone has ever gone.
00:34:31Tell me about it.
00:34:32You can feel that terrifying pressure even from here.
00:34:34Most people wouldn't even make it past the first step.
00:34:37First group, begin.
00:34:44What terrifying pressure.
00:34:49Look, it's Dylan Sawyer.
00:34:5360 levels.
00:34:54He reached the 60th level.
00:34:55He has a strong character and a solid foundation.
00:34:59He rejoins his sect.
00:35:00That's Irene York!
00:35:04880 levels!
00:35:05Oh my god, she charged to the 80th level.
00:35:10She has a rare gift for the blade.
00:35:12Sword sect shall take her in.
00:35:14Zenith sect and sword sect.
00:35:16Those are both elite sects.
00:35:17You're right.
00:35:18These steps really take you to the top.
00:35:20Second group, begin.
00:35:22Look, it's Ashton's sex heir!
00:35:24Matt Ashton!
00:35:25That guy.
00:35:26That's the sixth prince.
00:35:27Prince Ethan.
00:35:28To think he'd actually participate.
00:35:30Sally, the Grey family's eldest daughter, is here too.
00:35:33Word is, she won Prince Ethan's favor.
00:35:36This group is truly formidable.
00:35:38Prince Ethan has graced us with his presence.
00:35:41With royal blood in his veins.
00:35:43Let's see how high he can ascend.
00:35:45Indeed.
00:35:46This group is composed entirely of the finest elites.
00:35:50Evan, you awakened an ancient spirit in a small city like Quentin.
00:35:54You may have stood out back then, but it was just a stroke of luck.
00:35:57You lack the background and wealth to awaken a second or even a third spirit.
00:36:02Amidst this sea of talent in the Aegeus Grand Trials, you're just a joke.
00:36:07I'm destined to stay by Prince Ethan's side.
00:36:10I'll be there when he finally claims the throne.
00:36:13Evan, you and I are already worlds apart.
00:36:19The pressure of the heavenly steps truly lives up to its name.
00:36:2381 levels?
00:36:29A loser will always be a loser after all.
00:36:3290 levels!
00:36:33Prince Ethan reached the 90th level.
00:36:36My goodness.
00:36:38The highest record was the 95th level.
00:36:40His Highness is five levels away from breaking it.
00:36:43It's not just a record.
00:36:44It's said that anyone who reaches the 100th level will get the ancient Saint Supreme treasure.
00:36:49Prince Ethan actually has a chance.
00:36:52The pressure at the 90th level is little.
00:36:55Yet Prince Ethan is still holding its ground.
00:36:58It's incredible!
00:37:00While the royal blood in him is formidable, it looks like he's reached this limit.
00:37:06These near steps won't stand in my way.
00:37:10Shatter!
00:37:11A spirit!
00:37:12It's Prince Ethan's ancient dragon spirit!
00:37:15Oh my god!
00:37:16His Highness is going all out!
00:37:18He's going to keep climbing!
00:37:2493!
00:37:25He's already at the 93rd level and he's still climbing!
00:37:28I've never seen such incredible resolve!
00:37:38Why is he still up there?
00:37:40Hmph!
00:37:41He's probably paralyzed with fear.
00:37:43After seeing Prince Ethan reach his limit, his legs turn to jelly.
00:37:46Hmph!
00:37:47You're such a pathetic fool!
00:37:48Why won't you just give up?
00:37:50Hey!
00:37:51You're done!
00:37:51Get out of the way!
00:37:52Stop wasting our time!
00:37:54Exactly!
00:37:55The elites in the 3rd group are waiting.
00:37:57Isn't it embarrassing to stand alone on the heavenly steps?
00:38:03How noisy!
00:38:06I...
00:38:07Am I seeing things?
00:38:09What did he just do?
00:38:1010!
00:38:1110 levels!
00:38:12He cleared 10 levels in a single breath.
00:38:15That's impossible!
00:38:16The 70th level.
00:38:17That's a level most elites can't even hope to reach.
00:38:20How...
00:38:21How is he so fast?
00:38:27He's...
00:38:27He's reached the 80th level!
00:38:30There's another 10 levels!
00:38:31He's not even casting for air!
00:38:33God!
00:38:33What...
00:38:34What kind of monster is he?
00:38:35Ascending the heavenly steps should increasingly get more overwhelming!
00:38:39How can he still move so easily?
00:38:4281...
00:38:4382...
00:38:4490!
00:38:4591...
00:38:4692...
00:38:4793...
00:38:4894!
00:38:4994!
00:38:49He caught up to Prince Ethan's record!
00:38:52But he...
00:38:53He's still going!
00:38:58Holy shit!
00:38:59He just broke the previous record!
00:39:04No way!
00:39:05That's impossible!
00:39:10Evan!
00:39:10I'm Zenith 6 Elder!
00:39:13If you're willing to join us...
00:39:15You'll have total access to our 6 archives!
00:39:19I'll even take you on as my personal disciple!
00:39:24Hmph!
00:39:25Cedric!
00:39:26Zenith 6 Miga Scraps are pathetic compared to what I can offer you!
00:39:30Evan!
00:39:31You're a natural talent!
00:39:32You must join the sword set!
00:39:34With one strike all magic!
00:39:36It will crumble!
00:39:37Lad!
00:39:37Join us instead!
00:39:38I'll make you the greatest swordsman within 3 years!
00:39:41John!
00:39:42Know your place!
00:39:43Zenith 6 is built on wisdom and tradition!
00:39:45A battle-crazed lunatic like you could even compare!
00:39:50Now let's not get heated!
00:39:53The path of the sword is too fierce!
00:39:56While Zenith 6's methods are too passive!
00:40:01Evan!
00:40:02Vita-Sect focuses on cultivating one's life force!
00:40:06If you join the Vita-Sect, you'll feast upon a thousand-year elixirs like candy!
00:40:11You'll reach Ascendant Realm in less than a century!
00:40:13Greg!
00:40:13Quit lying!
00:40:14A trash-tier cultivator built on pills is nothing but a fraud!
00:40:18Hmph!
00:40:19A coward who rigs up herbs can't compete with Sword-Sect?
00:40:23Evan!
00:40:23Ignore them!
00:40:25True power lies in the strength of one's blade!
00:40:28Goodness!
00:40:29Zenith-Sect!
00:40:30Sword-Sect!
00:40:31And Vita-Sect!
00:40:32Those are the Empire's top 3 sects!
00:40:35They're actually losing their cool just to recruit Evan!
00:40:40Evan's truly on top of everyone now!
00:40:43To have 3 great sects fighting over him?
00:40:46How can he...
00:40:46How can he be more valuable than Prince Ethan?
00:40:51That's enough!
00:40:53All hail the head of Alma's sect!
00:40:55Greetings, Mr. Grant!
00:40:57Alma's sect?
00:40:58That's the legendary number 1 sect!
00:41:00And that man...
00:41:01He's the head of the sect!
00:41:04Samuel Grant!
00:41:06You're squabbling over a simple trial!
00:41:11How disgraceful!
00:41:12Hold your tongues and watch him climb!
00:41:36The 100th level!
00:41:51What?
00:41:51What's that?
00:41:53The dragon!
00:41:54The tiger!
00:41:55The phoenix!
00:41:56And the tortoise!
00:41:57They're...
00:41:58They're the ancient divine beasts!
00:41:59The ancient saint's gift that he left at the peak of the heavenly steps!
00:42:04It's the 4 ancient divine beasts!
00:42:22It's the 4 ancient divine beasts!
00:42:23Such overbearing power!
00:42:25I have to suppress them immediately!
00:42:31What's going on?
00:42:33Why isn't he moving?
00:42:34Has he finally hit his limit?
00:42:36Is he paralyzed from exhaustion?
00:42:38The 100th level?
00:42:40He actually reached the 100th level?
00:42:43But...
00:42:44What is he doing now?
00:42:47Huh!
00:42:47I guess the 100th level is his limit!
00:42:50Hmph!
00:42:51I simply failed to show my true power!
00:42:53Next time...
00:42:54I'll definitely break through the 100th level!
00:42:59Something's off!
00:43:00His energy is surging!
00:43:02At a terrifying rate!
00:43:04He wasn't at his limit!
00:43:06He...
00:43:06He's going through an extraordinary transformation!
00:43:23You're just four spirit fragments!
00:43:26How dare you show such arrogance before me!
00:43:29You should know your place!
00:43:37This is impossible!
00:43:38It's energy!
00:43:39How did he?
00:43:40Wasn't he at his limit?
00:43:42He's not just okay!
00:43:43He's even more powerful than before!
00:43:45Oh my god!
00:43:46He reached the 110th level!
00:43:47But he's still charging ahead!
00:43:49Is he even human?
00:43:50The heavenly steps pressure has no effect on him!
00:43:52Could he...
00:43:53Could he actually reach the top?
00:43:54It's the final level!
00:43:56This is the final step!
00:44:02It's celestial rain!
00:44:07It's celestial rain!
00:44:09It's celestial light!
00:44:10It's celestial light!
00:44:10It's celestial light!
00:44:10I've been stuck in a bottleneck for 30 years!
00:44:13Now I've finally found my chance to ascend!
00:44:15The stars have aligned!
00:44:17They've finally aligned for us!
00:44:22Now I fully absorb the strength of the Divine Beasts!
00:44:30Done!
00:44:30I'm feeling pretty drained!
00:44:47I was so blind!
00:44:49They mocked him and treated him like trash!
00:44:51Over and over again!
00:44:53Only for him to be a legendary genius!
00:44:56If only!
00:44:57If only I had treated him better!
00:44:59Even just a little!
00:45:00Would I say, Sally Grey!
00:45:02Bask in his glory with him right now!
00:45:06Sally!
00:45:06Are you distracted because of Ivan?
00:45:09No, your highness!
00:45:10I wasn't!
00:45:11I was just...
00:45:12Stunned by Mr. Grant's presence!
00:45:14Hmph!
00:45:15It better be just that!
00:45:17Ivan!
00:45:18I don't care who you are or who's bad for you!
00:45:22Soon or later, I'll have you kneel at my feet!
00:45:25I'll make you realize who!
00:45:27Mr. real genius!
00:45:39You're awake!
00:45:41Thanks for saving me, Mr. Grant!
00:45:43It was nothing!
00:45:44Now, do you know where we are?
00:45:46No, I don't!
00:45:47Well, this is the Alma sect!
00:45:50One of humanity's nine great sects!
00:45:53However, this is just a front for our true power!
00:45:56Have you heard of spirit keepers?
00:45:59I know a bit!
00:46:00Spirit keepers are humanity's shields!
00:46:02They guard the borders from the demon race!
00:46:04That's right!
00:46:05So, here is the truth!
00:46:07Many spirit keepers came directly from Alma sects!
00:46:12I see!
00:46:14You've exhausted your power on the heavenly steps!
00:46:18Take this Novum pill!
00:46:20It'll restore your power!
00:46:21And help you push past your current limits!
00:46:25Thanks, Mr. Grant!
00:46:33A spirit binder's peak!
00:46:35I'm one step away from becoming a master binder!
00:46:38Mr. Grant, an imperial decree has arrived!
00:46:41The Emperor has invited all the top talents from the Trials to gather at Haddon!
00:46:47Your cultivation will have to wait!
00:46:49Since it's an imperial decree, you should attend the banquet!
00:46:58His Highness, Prince Ethan, has arrived!
00:47:04Greetings, Your Highness!
00:47:06Your regal stride and presence truly leave the rest of us in the dust!
00:47:11Ha ha!
00:47:12Hey, Your Highness!
00:47:13Your power is so pure and powerful!
00:47:17It's the sign of a born ruler!
00:47:19You should join Vita's sect!
00:47:21You'd rule the world in less than 10 years!
00:47:23Your Highness is a prodigy, destined for greatness!
00:47:26The new sect is ready to support your cultivation with everything we have!
00:47:30A place I feed this sect isn't fit to refine your talent!
00:47:33You flatter me too much!
00:47:34As Father's today's host, I'm simply here to join the fun!
00:47:37Don't be so formal with me!
00:47:39Evan Carson has arrived!
00:47:43Evan Carson has arrived!
00:47:49Evan Carson?
00:47:50It's Evan Carson!
00:47:51The ultimate genius all time!
00:47:53If someone like him were to join the sword sect, swordsmanship would take over the world!
00:47:57What incredible spiritual power!
00:47:59You're just one step too late!
00:48:01Who knew Alma's sect had already recruited an extraordinary talent while we were still fighting for the Prince!
00:48:09Incredible!
00:48:10You're incredible, Evan!
00:48:12Your successful ascent of the stairs has brought honor to the Kea of Empire!
00:48:16You are the pride of the human race!
00:48:19Men!
00:48:19Get him a seat!
00:48:22Father!
00:48:23Even you!
00:48:24I'm your son!
00:48:24I should be the pride of the Empire!
00:48:26That man's mere peasant!
00:48:28How could he steal everything from me?
00:48:30Father!
00:48:31I accidentally spilled my drink just now!
00:48:34Out of respect!
00:48:35I'd like to go change!
00:48:37I'll be back soon!
00:48:39Go ahead!
00:48:40Come back soon!
00:48:42Ivan!
00:48:43I need the key!
00:48:45Swear I will crush you!
00:48:51Ivan!
00:48:52Ivan!
00:48:53Ivan!
00:48:53Ivan!
00:48:54Ivan!
00:48:54Ivan!
00:48:54Ivan!
00:48:55Ivan!
00:49:19Ivan!
00:49:20Ivan!
00:49:20Highness, just look. You want to kill Evan, so does the demon race. Having a mutual enemy is surely grounds
00:49:28for us to be friends, right?
00:49:31Enough of your nonsense. I want you gone this instant.
00:49:36Your Highness, stop pretending. If you really wanted to kill me, I would already be dead. Why would you even
00:49:42bother to talk to me?
00:49:43Now, would you like to listen to my plan? Evan is an absolute thorn in the side of the demon
00:49:50race. His incredible talent is bad news. It's unprecedented.
00:49:54If you were allowed to grow stronger, he would be a great obstacle if the human and demon races were
00:49:58to go to war.
00:49:59So, the demon race would like to help you. The demon race would like to help you. We will help
00:50:06you to take the throne as emperor.
00:50:07Huh, what a way to kill two birds with one stone. If I kill Ivan because I trusted your words,
00:50:13the human race shall be incredible talent.
00:50:16Do you think I'm that stupid or selfish enough to destroy the human race?
00:50:21Oh my, your Highness, I know you. You're not the kind of benevolent man who cares about people's lives.
00:50:28Even if many people might die because of your actions, what does it really have to do with you?
00:50:34The commoners are insignificant. A few deaths are nothing. You'll be the rightful emperor when that happens.
00:50:42The supreme and almighty ruler. Aren't you excited to be the emperor? Why bother about anything else?
00:50:50Your Highness, you're only a master binder right now. That won't be enough to kill Evan.
00:50:56However, if you take this inferno pill, I can guarantee that you'll attain the supreme binder realm overnight.
00:51:03One demon pill is all it takes to make you a supreme binder. With this, you won't have to worry
00:51:09about Evan at all.
00:51:11Okay. It's a deal.
00:51:21Oh? Sally? When did you get here? Did you hear everything?
00:51:32Your Highness, you mustn't fall for that demon's lies. She's a demon. We're sworn enemies. Working with her is like
00:51:40playing with fire.
00:51:42Huh. I know. Don't worry. I got this. It's cold out there. This is no place to talk. Come to
00:51:50my room.
00:51:59Your Highness. What are you doing?
00:52:02Didn't you stick with me all this time? To climb up the social ladder by currying favor with me?
00:52:08Today, I will grant you that opportunity.
00:52:14Come here. Serve me.
00:52:16No! Your Highness! Let me go! I don't want this!
00:52:23Your Highness! Let me go! I don't want this!
00:52:30You don't want this? You bitch! I'm thinking about Evan right now!
00:52:35Is that why you're acting like this?
00:52:38No! Answer me!
00:52:39Your Highness, I really wasn't!
00:52:43Stop!
00:52:46You... You dare to?
00:52:47I stuck by your side because I admired your abilities.
00:52:51I wanted to help you achieve greatness, but I didn't think.
00:52:54I never imagined you would do a thing like this.
00:52:58You're conspiring with a demon to hurt your own kind.
00:53:01You... You disgust me!
00:53:03I know I'm not getting away today, but I, Sally Gray, would rather die than be humiliated like this.
00:53:12Damn it. Damn it!
00:53:15Sally, you bitch!
00:53:17You'd rather die than obey me!
00:53:20Ivan, it's all because of you!
00:53:23It's all your fault!
00:53:26I will kill you.
00:53:28I promise!
00:53:33I will kill you!
00:53:34Wonderful, gentlemen!
00:53:36Everyone!
00:53:37Here!
00:53:38A toast to everyone!
00:53:40Father, I have something to say.
00:53:42Oh!
00:53:44What is it, Ethan?
00:53:46Unlike literature, martial arts are straightforward.
00:53:49Everyone here are talented members of the human race.
00:53:52And Ivan had even successfully ascended the stairs.
00:53:55I am inexperienced.
00:53:56I would like to see how strong the top talent is.
00:54:00I'd like the chance to spar with Ivan.
00:54:02I hope you'll permit it.
00:54:07Good, good.
00:54:09That's the spirit.
00:54:10My son is fearless in taking on challenges.
00:54:14He is indeed my son.
00:54:16Now permitted.
00:54:18I will see what you're truly capable of here today.
00:54:23Hey!
00:54:23Hey!
00:54:25Goldenrod!
00:54:26Strike!
00:54:32What a powerful spirit.
00:54:34Such overwhelming presence.
00:54:36He defeated Prince Ethan in one strike?
00:54:39Damn it!
00:54:40Damn it!
00:54:41No!
00:54:42I can't lose!
00:54:42Not to that little bastard!
00:54:46Ha ha ha ha!
00:54:49Ha ha ha ha!
00:54:50Ha ha ha ha!
00:54:51Ha ha ha ha!
00:54:52Ha ha ha ha!
00:54:53Ha ha ha ha!
00:54:53Do you sense it?
00:54:55This power is what true power is!
00:54:59Die!
00:55:00Die!
00:55:13Ha ha ha ha!
00:55:15Ha ha ha ha!
00:55:18You bastard.
00:55:19This is the difference between
00:55:21you and me.
00:55:22Time to die!
00:55:26You're incapable of that.
00:55:40Huh? You leveled up?
00:55:43So what?
00:55:45You're just a mastermind. It's nothing.
00:55:47Is that so?
00:55:53Uh, another spirit?
00:55:55And the second spirit's aura is terrifying.
00:56:00What is it that you want from me?
00:56:03I won't be fooled by your trick.
00:56:05Even if you're awakened as a second spirit, you are still no match for me!
00:56:10Mega Tiger!
00:56:14Oh?
00:56:15Sword!
00:56:20My sword!
00:56:22It's... it's flying away?
00:56:45What now?
00:56:48I am the one and only god of swords, and my swordsmanship lasts for an eternity!
00:56:53Strike!
00:56:54Huh? No! No!
00:56:56No!
00:57:08He killed Prince Ethan?
00:57:11Thousands of swords aimed at the prince with a single thought? Is Evan some sort of monster?
00:57:17The second spirit's power is absolutely terrifying!
00:57:20I've never seen such incredible skills in my life!
00:57:23Oh no!
00:57:23This is a huge mistake!
00:57:25Killing the prince in front of his majesty!
00:57:28Evan is doomed!
00:57:33Evan's car, son!
00:57:35How dare you kill the prince!
00:57:44Damn it!
00:57:45Is this the power of an omni-binder?
00:57:50Stop!
00:57:53Rowan Key!
00:57:54You're the emperor!
00:57:56Don't you think it's beneath you to target a young man?
00:58:02As Almasek decided to make the whole imperial family their enemy forever, that little bastard!
00:58:08Enemy?
00:58:08I won't go that far!
00:58:11Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:58:13Okay!
00:58:14You're the head of Almasek!
00:58:16But you're defending him, even though...
00:58:19You killed my son!
00:58:21Still, you're saying you're not going against me!
00:58:23What do you think you'll be able to defend him by yourself?
00:58:28Hmph!
00:58:29I indeed can't!
00:58:31But...
00:58:31What about this?
00:58:37Oh my god!
00:58:38What's that?
00:58:39It's an array!
00:58:40It's an array spanning across the sky!
00:58:43Rowan Key!
00:58:44You've got a lot of nerve!
00:58:47What?
00:58:52Greetings, Lorenzane!
00:58:54I have...
00:58:55Taken this man with me today!
00:58:58Oh!
00:58:58There's to stop me!
00:59:00But Lord's sake!
00:59:02He...
00:59:02He killed my son!
00:59:04My flesh and blood!
00:59:05That's none of my concern!
00:59:07Besides, so what if he kills your son?
00:59:11Lord's sake!
00:59:12Are you going to defend him forever?
00:59:15Forever?
00:59:16No, this is the only time!
00:59:19No, this is the only time!
00:59:19Perhaps you'll see him again someday!
00:59:21When that happens...
00:59:22When that happens...
00:59:23I won't intervene again!
00:59:25I won't intervene again!
00:59:26Evan...
00:59:28You'd better stay with the Spirit Keeper forever!
00:59:31Don't ever let me catch you alone!
00:59:34Otherwise, I'll destroy you and tear you to pieces!
00:59:39Rowan, you should also stay alive!
00:59:42I, Evan Carson, will be back in a year to kill you myself!
00:59:51Thank you for saving my life!
00:59:57It's you!
00:59:58That fortune-telling old man!
01:00:00Why?
01:00:01I don't look the part?
01:00:02Who knew?
01:00:03You were the Spirit Keeper, Richard Zane!
01:00:06Kid!
01:00:07Don't be nervous!
01:00:08You don't need to know the reason I saved you for now!
01:00:12In short, I will help you grow in the shortest time possible!
01:00:17Come with me now!
01:00:19I'm taking you somewhere!
01:00:20Where is that?
01:00:23Agus Academy!
01:00:26I received a book of Divine Sword Techniques after awakening the God of Swords, known as Immortal
01:00:32Annihilation.
01:00:32Even though I only scanned through it, I knew it was extraordinary!
01:00:36Unfortunately, I'm still missing a good sword!
01:00:40What's up?
01:00:41Did you smell some magical fruit again?
01:00:43Your sense of smell is even better than a celestial-tired treasure-hunting rat!
01:00:47No, it's not that!
01:00:48I smell something ancient and sharp with a hint of dustiness!
01:00:53Wow, you're amazing, Evan!
01:00:55I'm amazing too, you know?
01:01:09The missing celestial-tier weapon from 300 years ago, Dragon Slayer!
01:01:13Mr. Zane, my nose is amazing, isn't it?
01:01:18This kid...
01:01:20Is he some kind of dog?
01:01:22Oh no, this is not even a matter of lucky!
01:01:25He is literally blasted by the dogs!
01:01:29I've really gotten lucky this time!
01:01:33Didn't I say Evan is the best?
01:01:36Don't flatter me.
01:01:43A gift for you!
01:01:44Wow!
01:01:44An iridescent hair stick?
01:01:46Wearing it can help with one's focus and cultivation!
01:01:48Perfect for you!
01:01:52Oh my god!
01:01:53What the hell is going on?
01:01:54Why are Oda treasures fooling him around?
01:01:58Did you find it?
01:01:59Yes, my lord.
01:02:00It's right at Blue Valley.
01:02:02Good.
01:02:03Let's go.
01:02:07Evan, what did you find this time?
01:02:10The aura this time is strange.
01:02:13It's incredibly powerful and ancient.
01:02:15It's even more majestic than the Dragon Slayer.
01:02:18But it's also very weak, as it would disappear at any moment.
01:02:21Oh, where is it?
01:02:27Oh my, what a poor little dog.
01:02:30It's hurt!
01:02:31This dog is no ordinary dog.
01:02:33I'm not mistaken.
01:02:34My sense of smell would never fail me.
01:02:36Where did this dog come from?
01:02:42Hey!
01:02:43Hand over the thing you're carrying.
01:02:45What did you say?
01:02:46I'll say it again.
01:02:48Hand over that Divine Devourer pup you have in your hands.
01:02:51Divine Devourer?
01:02:52In your dreams?
01:02:54You refuse?
01:02:55In that case, I'll come and take it myself.
01:02:59DIE!
01:03:00Chloe, take care of the pup.
01:03:04Immortal Annihilation!
01:03:14Well, what an impressive sword.
01:03:17What an ignorant young man.
01:03:21Get lost.
01:03:29You?
01:03:29Who do you think you are?
01:03:31How dare you?
01:03:32Thunder.
01:03:33You?
01:03:43Euaahhh!
01:03:44Bye.
01:03:48Defeating and destroying a demon with only one word?
01:03:51Spirit Keeper's powers are indeed formidable.
01:03:53I must try to learn something good from him, while we're spending time together.
01:04:10Hey, what are you doing?
01:04:13Hey, what are you doing?
01:04:14Oh, I'm hungry.
01:04:16I'm roasting a chicken to eat.
01:04:18I'm assuming you don't need food at your sage-like state.
01:04:21I'm sure you won't be tempted by such things.
01:04:23Nonsense.
01:04:24My training is all about the weight of nature.
01:04:26Consuming mortal food is also part of my training.
01:04:29In that case, would you like some of this?
01:04:34Not bad.
01:04:35It's cooked just nice.
01:04:36Crispy skin and juicy meat.
01:04:38Absolutely delicious.
01:04:40Mr. Zane, do you want more in the future?
01:04:42Of course.
01:04:43Cooking is exhausting.
01:04:44Do I get any reward?
01:04:46Of course.
01:04:47What do you want?
01:04:48Could you teach me a skill?
01:04:50Uh, well...
01:04:51Okay.
01:04:52I will teach you a palm technique.
01:04:53This move is called Raging Wave's Paw.
01:04:56It's all about fighting with overwhelming strength.
01:04:59The stronger the force, the more powerful the move.
01:05:04You were born incredibly strong.
01:05:06You have a good foundation.
01:05:07This move is just right for you.
01:05:09However, you're not strong enough yet.
01:05:12Wade Art.
01:05:13Activate.
01:05:15Mr. Zane, this is...
01:05:17From here on, you'll carry this mountain with you.
01:05:20When you can walk with Eve with it, and roast a chicken again for me as you did, you'll be
01:05:26able to master Raging Wave's Paw.
01:05:30Evan, are you okay?
01:05:32Yes.
01:05:33Of course.
01:05:37Stop.
01:05:38The admission period has ended.
01:05:40Try next year.
01:05:41Nuisance.
01:05:42May I know who has arrived at our Aegis Academy?
01:05:46I...
01:05:47I, Frank Walker, pay my respect to the Spirit Keeper.
01:05:51I didn't know you were here.
01:05:53I should have welcomed you.
01:05:55My deepest apology.
01:05:56Enough.
01:05:56I've made these two into the Academy today.
01:05:59Make the arrangements.
01:06:01Uh, yes.
01:06:01Yes.
01:06:02Of course.
01:06:03It's an honor for Aegis Academy to have them.
01:06:07The rules are for mere mortals.
01:06:09They don't apply to you.
01:06:11Please enter, you two.
01:06:14Oh, Mr. Walker.
01:06:15Is she a newbie?
01:06:17She's so pretty.
01:06:19Hi, I'm Jacob Lane.
01:06:20I'm a senior here.
01:06:22You can find me if you need any help.
01:06:25Why would you bother with a loser like that?
01:06:28You should come to me.
01:06:30I guarantee you'll have everything you want.
01:06:32All troublemakers should die.
01:06:36You two.
01:06:37This is our Academy's treasure, Chaos Pillar.
01:06:41It contains a supreme power, Chaos Art.
01:06:45The first class for every newbie is to face the pillar.
01:06:50If you can last one day, you're good.
01:06:53If you can last two days, you are excellent.
01:06:56If you can last three days, you'll be a rare talent in the Academy.
01:07:03Look at those two newcomers.
01:07:05They lasted a whole day.
01:07:07That girl is incredible.
01:07:09That guy.
01:07:10Isn't he the one who killed Jacob?
01:07:11He's also that strong?
01:07:14Oh, my.
01:07:15It has been two days.
01:07:17They both lasted two days.
01:07:19They're out of this world.
01:07:21Three days.
01:07:22Three whole days of withstanding the pillar.
01:07:28It's the fourth day now.
01:07:29He's still sitting there.
01:07:31Look at him.
01:07:32He's completely unaffected.
01:07:34Chloe had achieved enlightenment on the third day.
01:07:38I think he never managed to enter the state to achieve enlightenment.
01:07:42He's just there with brute force.
01:07:45His senses must be dull,
01:07:47so he is unaffected by the Chaos Pillar's powers.
01:07:53Five days.
01:07:55I've never seen anything like this in my 300 years here.
01:07:59Yet there's no sign that he has gained enlightenment.
01:08:02Strange.
01:08:04Truly strange.
01:08:05This boy's physical body is unbelievably powerful.
01:08:09Perhaps all his talent is in his physique.
01:08:12As for comprehension, he's nothing much.
01:08:15Him being able to sit there for five days doesn't mean anything.
01:08:19Loss, what a pity.
01:08:22I told you, he got in through ties.
01:08:24What real skills could he have?
01:08:26He kills purely with brute force.
01:08:28Five days with no reaction?
01:08:29He's not just weak, he's absolutely useless.
01:08:33This must be the most embarrassing record ever.
01:08:36Oh, Evan.
01:08:40I am Glaucus.
01:08:42This logogram was created from my life's greatest effort.
01:08:45It's the core principle of Chaos Art.
01:08:47Huh?
01:08:48Emperor Glaucus.
01:08:49The legendary strongest human emperor who single-handedly resisted the demon invasion till death.
01:08:55Who would have thought that eons later, a descendant could awaken my remaining soul?
01:09:00I fought my entire life, pacifying darkness, yet I still failed to eradicate the demon calamity.
01:09:07This Chaos Art is my inheritance.
01:09:09I hope you will inherit my will and protect this land for the human race.
01:09:17Protect this land for the human race.
01:09:26Such overwhelming power.
01:09:28This will do.
01:09:29Even with my body refined by the burden art, I still can't instantly endure such a complete Imperial level inheritance.
01:09:35If I force a breakthrough now, my foundation will become unstable.
01:09:38Stop!
01:09:44It's been six days.
01:09:46He's just putting on an act.
01:09:48What a loser.
01:09:50Mr. Walker, I think we should end this.
01:09:52Letting him sit any longer will only make Aegis Academy a laughingstock.
01:09:57Oh, well.
01:09:58It is what it is, then.
01:10:05Listen.
01:10:06It's Imperial Phenomena.
01:10:14Master Binder?
01:10:15Nine stars?
01:10:16How is this possible?
01:10:18Five days of enlightenment.
01:10:20Breaking through multiple realms in one go?
01:10:22Is this a monster?
01:10:24Ivan, what enlightenment have you received?
01:10:28Just a slight insight.
01:10:29Slight insight?
01:10:30This is divine fortune.
01:10:33Heaven is blessing Aegis Academy.
01:10:35Ivan, after seeking enlightenment.
01:10:38At the Chaos Pillar for six days, you've created a miracle unseen in 10,000 years of Academy history.
01:10:44By unanimous decision at the Elder Council, you are awarded 100,000 spiritual crystals.
01:10:49Emperor Glaucus's inheritance is far too vast.
01:10:52It needs to be absorbed slowly.
01:10:54Right now, I should improve the Great Sage's strength first.
01:10:56System upgraded.
01:11:03Great Sage's spirit tier 3 exclusive weapon.
01:11:07Golden rod.
01:11:08Cart weight 20,000 pounds.
01:11:12Attention all students.
01:11:14Attention to all students.
01:11:16Proceed immediately to the central plaza.
01:11:18An important announcement will be made.
01:11:23Evan, do you know what they're announcing?
01:11:26It's so mysterious.
01:11:27Don't worry.
01:11:28We'll find out soon.
01:11:31Students, welcome to Aegis Academy.
01:11:33I believe many of you have one question in mind.
01:11:36What exactly are the rules of this Academy?
01:11:39I will tell you right now.
01:11:42The mission of Aegis Academy is to cultivate the powerhouses.
01:11:47And in the world of the storm, there is only one rule.
01:11:50Which is, there are no rules.
01:11:54No, no rules.
01:11:56What does that mean?
01:11:58Does it mean...
01:12:01It means that here, you may compete, you may plunder.
01:12:06Techniques, pills, spiritual crystals, all resources belong to the capable.
01:12:11The weak deserve only elimination.
01:12:14Spirit crystals are your only currency here.
01:12:18Want to grow stronger?
01:12:19Want to stand at peak?
01:12:21Then abandon your foolish morality and mercy.
01:12:24Fight.
01:12:25Launder.
01:12:31My family just borrowed another 20,000 spirit crystals.
01:12:34I can finally push into the Master Binder realm.
01:12:36Gosh.
01:12:37You have it good, Zeke.
01:12:39Unlike me, I worked on missions for an entire month and only saved up 5,000.
01:12:43You two seem to be chatting happily.
01:12:46You two seem to be chatting happily.
01:12:48Hmm?
01:12:49What?
01:12:49A freshman.
01:12:50Out of our way.
01:12:51Get lost.
01:12:52Hand over your spirit crystals.
01:12:54I'll spare you a beating.
01:12:56What?
01:12:56Robbery?
01:12:57How dare you rob me?
01:12:59Get him!
01:13:05One more time.
01:13:07Hand over the spirit crystals.
01:13:12Evan, you're way too fast.
01:13:14I just found a target and you already finished them off.
01:13:17You didn't even leave.
01:13:23Good work, everyone.
01:13:26Two honored peers.
01:13:28Please accept this with our respect.
01:13:32Sir, those pills you're carrying look pretty nice.
01:13:39Run!
01:13:40The two bandit kings are here.
01:13:44Demons everywhere.
01:13:46I just got my welfare.
01:13:50Evan, you called Evan, the other is Chloe.
01:13:53Now, everyone trembles just hearing their name.
01:13:56Wow, Evan, we're rich.
01:13:59Rich?
01:14:00This is nowhere near enough.
01:14:09This is getting boring.
01:14:12What's wrong?
01:14:13Evan, it's been a whole month.
01:14:16We've visited every student in the academy.
01:14:19When they see us now, they scatter like mice seeing a cat.
01:14:26Geez, this crappy academy even has a one-year limit.
01:14:30At this rate, we'll be bored to death before graduation.
01:14:35The spirit crystals the students have are just monthly welfare from the academy anyway.
01:14:39It's a limited supply.
01:14:41It was expected we drained them dry.
01:14:44Then, should we switch targets?
01:14:47Huh, what target?
01:14:49Think about it.
01:14:50Who gives students spirit crystals?
01:14:53The academy.
01:14:54And who's the richest inside the academies?
01:14:56It's obviously the teachers, elders, and department heads.
01:14:59Their stockpiles are surely way bigger than the students.
01:15:03Hmm, good idea.
01:15:05But if we're going to do that, let's go big.
01:15:08But if we're going to do that, let's go big.
01:15:11How big?
01:15:12The Academic Affairs Office.
01:15:14The Academic Affairs Office?
01:15:16That chubby Mr. Nord?
01:15:18I heard he controls the resource distribution for the whole academy.
01:15:22That's the one.
01:15:26Ha ha ha ha!
01:15:29Hmm, interesting.
01:15:31Very interesting.
01:15:33This batch finally produced two decent little monsters.
01:15:36Robbed every student clean of their spirit crystals.
01:15:40That ruthlessness and courage haven't been seen in years.
01:15:44Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:15:48Not bad, not bad.
01:15:50At the year-end assessment, their ratings will definitely be high.
01:15:54They might even bring some surprises to the academy.
01:16:00Give it up!
01:16:01Give us the spirit crystals.
01:16:03What?
01:16:03Are you insane?
01:16:05Hey!
01:16:05You two little brats!
01:16:07Have you lost your minds?
01:16:08How...
01:16:08How dare you rob me?
01:16:13Outrageous!
01:16:13This is rebellion.
01:16:15Do you know who I am?
01:16:17This is the Academic Affairs Office.
01:16:19You dare rob me?
01:16:20Do you want to get expelled?
01:16:22Mr. Nord, we know exactly where this is.
01:16:25And we know who you are.
01:16:26That's our...
01:16:27Enough nonsense.
01:16:28Spirit crystals or we help you find them.
01:16:30How?
01:16:31How dare you?
01:16:32These are resources prepared for all academy students.
01:16:35You're declaring war on the entire academy.
01:16:38It doesn't matter.
01:16:39They'll all be defeated by us sooner or later anyway.
01:16:42There's no difference whether your resources stay with you or with us.
01:16:44The only difference is that we don't have patience.
01:16:51Wow, we're rich!
01:16:56It's over.
01:16:58My lifelong reputation.
01:17:00Robbed by two little brats.
01:17:03How...
01:17:04How am I supposed to keep my position after this?
01:17:08Thanks for your generosity.
01:17:10We'll be all.
01:17:27It's coming.
01:17:33Success!
01:17:34Evan just broke into the Master Binder realm.
01:17:37I wonder what kind of spirit he'll get this time.
01:17:40Is it...
01:17:41Is this an ancient spirit?
01:17:46Third spirit.
01:17:48Lotus Prince.
01:17:50Congratulations.
01:17:51You've awakened Mythic Spirit.
01:17:53The Lotus Prince Beginner Form.
01:17:55You have gained part of the Lotus Prince's powers.
01:17:58First, Trihex Form.
01:18:00Second, Red Sash.
01:18:01Fire Lamp.
01:18:02Inferno Wheels.
01:18:03Third, Trinity Blade.
01:18:14Silence.
01:18:15Next, you will draw lots to receive your graduation missions.
01:18:20Inside this box are a hundred trial tokens prepared by the Academy.
01:18:24Be it slaying demons, protecting territories, or infiltrating enemy camps.
01:18:30There is no noble or lowly mission.
01:18:33Only life or death.
01:18:34Complete it and you graduate.
01:18:36Fail.
01:18:37And the consequences are yours.
01:18:39A random draw is way more exciting than choosing your own mission.
01:18:43Yeah.
01:18:44Who knows what we'll draw?
01:18:45Now, according to the roster, step forward to draw your trial token.
01:18:51First, Jake Moore.
01:19:06Next, Evan Carson.
01:19:29Your trial mission is to return to the Keeve Empire and assassinate the Keeve Emperor.
01:19:36Rowan Keeve.
01:19:39Rowan Keeve.
01:19:41Perfect.
01:19:42Exactly what I wished for.
01:19:52Evan, are you really going?
01:19:54Even though you and Rowan Keeve share deep hatred, attempting assassination now is extremely dangerous.
01:20:00Read this and you'll understand.
01:20:03Collated with the demon race.
01:20:05Sacrifice millions of border civilians in exchange for demonic secret arts.
01:20:10Built blood pools beneath the palace.
01:20:12Used the blood of innocent girls for forbidden techniques.
01:20:14Framed loyal officials and killed generals.
01:20:17Crime after crime.
01:20:18Too many to even list.
01:20:21He...
01:20:21He actually committed so many unforgivable acts?
01:20:24That's why killing Rowan Keeve is non-negotiable.
01:20:34Chloe, stop.
01:20:35Huh?
01:20:35Mr. Hale, why are you here?
01:20:37I'm taking you Kira to co-devate.
01:20:39Kira?
01:20:40Yes.
01:20:40But I've already decided to follow Evan back to Keeve.
01:20:43Nonsense.
01:20:44Do you have any idea how dangerous Keeve is now?
01:20:46Rowan Keeve has reached Omnibinder Realm.
01:20:48You'll only be a burden to Evan.
01:20:50You'll only be a burden to Evan.
01:20:51But that's exactly why I must go.
01:20:54Because Rowan Keeve is strong.
01:20:55Chloe, you're underestimating Evan.
01:20:57His combat strength far exceeds your imagination.
01:21:00For him, going along to Keeve is the safest option.
01:21:02Once you're with him, his heart will carry an extra burden.
01:21:05But...
01:21:05Chloe, tell me.
01:21:06What do you think of Evan's talent?
01:21:09It's one in a million.
01:21:10He's a true hero.
01:21:11Mm-hmm.
01:21:12Exactly.
01:21:13With his mindset and talent, he will soar into the heavens.
01:21:18If this mission succeeds, he's destined to stand at the peak of humanity,
01:21:22looking down upon all living beings.
01:21:25When that day comes, do you think you're qualified to stand beside him
01:21:30with your current strength to shoulder that perilous glory and endless storms together?
01:21:35Or do you only want to be a shadow beneath his light, a burden he has to constantly protect?
01:21:41I...
01:21:42I don't want to be his burden.
01:21:44I found you an ancient secret realm.
01:21:46Inside lies a heaven-defying opportunity.
01:21:48If you obtain this fortune, your strength will undergo a drastic chance.
01:21:53Only then will you truly be qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
01:21:58Choose for yourself whether to go or not.
01:22:00Alright, I'll go.
01:22:01You're back?
01:22:03Evan, I can't go with you anymore.
01:22:06What happened?
01:22:09My master came.
01:22:11He's taking me somewhere to cultivate.
01:22:13He said that I can become much stronger there.
01:22:15Did he force you?
01:22:16No.
01:22:17This is my own decision.
01:22:19Evan, you're destined to be a soaring eagle.
01:22:21I don't want to look at you from the ground.
01:22:23Wait for me.
01:22:24When I return, I will be someone who can fight alongside you.
01:22:28Then, I'll be with you no matter what.
01:22:29I'll wait.
01:22:30I promise you that wherever you are, and whatever you face, protect yourself first.
01:22:36You must come back safely.
01:22:38Mm-hmm.
01:22:38You too.
01:22:39You have to come back alive and come back to marry me.
01:22:43Jeez.
01:22:43I worked so hard to raise such a tender spiritual cabbage.
01:22:46And now it's been taken by Evan, that dame pig.
01:22:49I'm furious.
01:22:50Absolutely furious.
01:22:56He, vampire, I'm back.
01:23:01Uh...
01:23:04Look, that's the one on the wanted poster.
01:23:08Yes, it's him.
01:23:10It's Evan.
01:23:11He's back.
01:23:11Quick, raise the highest level alert.
01:23:14Report to his majesty.
01:23:17Your, your majesty, found him.
01:23:19We found him.
01:23:21Who?
01:23:22Evan Carson.
01:23:23The border reports that he has just stepped into Kiev.
01:23:26He, he, he, he, he.
01:23:28He, he, he, he.
01:23:29He, he, he, he.
01:23:30He, he, he, he.
01:23:30Good.
01:23:30Very good.
01:23:32The bastard killed my son, and still dares to come back.
01:23:36I thought he'd hide like a coward for the rest of his life.
01:23:40Pass on my decree.
01:23:42Mobilize your black armor cavalry.
01:23:44Summon all royal guardians.
01:23:46Tear him into pieces.
01:23:47At any cost.
01:23:50I want him to know that the land of Kiev will be his grave.
01:23:58Yes, your majesty.
01:24:00The army has already begun a full speed assault toward his location.
01:24:05General, look up there.
01:24:10All units, change direction.
01:24:13Defend the Imperial Palace.
01:24:14Go, now.
01:24:17Evan Carson.
01:24:19You traitor who murdered my prince.
01:24:20How dare you enter my palace alone?
01:24:23Rowan Keeve, I'm back.
01:24:24You returned to die.
01:24:26You killed my beloved son.
01:24:28That is an abominable crime.
01:24:30Today, I will grind your bones to dust to comfort my son's spirit in the afterlife.
01:24:36Your son was nothing but a tyrant, traitor, and enemy colluding scum.
01:24:42He deserved to die.
01:24:43And you, indulged in his crimes even as an emperor.
01:24:47Today, I will carry out divine justice.
01:24:51Divine justice.
01:24:53From a brat like you, I am an anointed one.
01:24:57And what are you?
01:24:58I will show you what it means to defy divine authority.
01:25:07Enough talk.
01:25:09I came here for only one day.
01:25:11You take your despicable life.
01:25:13Insult.
01:25:14Everyone stand down.
01:25:16I will take his head personally.
01:25:20Come.
01:25:21Prepare to die.
01:25:30You see this, Evan?
01:25:31This is the disparity between a supreme and an omnibinder.
01:25:36No matter how gifted you are, never overcome it.
01:25:42Rowan Keeve, your lackeys are far too noisy.
01:25:47They will serve as your funeral position.
01:25:50They are nothing more than burial offerings for your rotten throne.
01:25:56I have one sword that can open the sky gate.
01:26:00Today, I'll use you all to temper my blade.
01:26:03Swords at him!
01:26:08Open sky gate!
01:26:17One strike with three thousand imperial guards were slaughtered!
01:26:21You monster!
01:26:24Such a terrifying technique.
01:26:26But a technique like this must have drained most of your power.
01:26:30You're already at your limit now.
01:26:36Rowan Keeve, this is all your so-called omnibinder can do.
01:26:41Before me, an omnibinder is nothing but a slightly stronger ant.
01:26:45Great Sage, lend me your goldenrod!
01:26:50What the hell?
01:26:51This weapon is called the goldenrod, you vile emperor.
01:26:55Can you take this strike?
01:26:58Arrogant!
01:26:59Dragon's soul shield is blockin'!
01:27:07Gwag!
01:27:13Impossible!
01:27:14My dragon's soul shield was shut by a single blow!
01:27:21I told you, you're only a slightly stronger ant.
01:27:25You vile dog!
01:27:26You will never succeed!
01:27:28I am a divine scion!
01:27:30A nation protects me!
01:27:31You can't kill me!
01:27:33You'll never kill me!
01:27:35A divine scion?
01:27:37Your nation's protection?
01:27:39My trinity blaze burns all filth of the universe.
01:27:42You false hero who stole the throne.
01:27:44It's time for you to go!
01:27:47No!
01:27:48No!
01:27:49No!
01:27:54The universe is filled with righteous energy.
01:27:57The true path of human endures through the ages.
