Monarch Of Time Chapter 457

''Change our future?''
It was unknown who was the one who had asked this, as everyone stared at the white-robed Elder Zhuan standing next to the white-colored crystal-like ball, and waited for him to explain.
Seeing the confused expressions in the disciples' faces, Elder Zhuan nodded his head and smiled as he then said
''Right, today is your chance to change your future!
This white ball's name is the ball of fate. It can read your fate and predict your future to a certain extent. Depending on your results today, you may even attract the attention of an Elder and be accepted as their personal disciple.
Becoming a disciple of an Elder will not only give you status in the sect, but you will also get more resources, a better training environment, and even personal guidance from the Elder.
Of course, every single outer court Elder is at least a peak rank 9 Dao King realm expert!
Now... let's begin!''
As soon as he finished speaking, the white-robed Elder Zhuan turned his attention towards a red-robed young man who was standing the closest to him.
This was actually the same young man that Liu Mei had fought during the third test when they competed for the Holy sect's token. He had barely managed to pass through the fourth test and defeat an outer disciple of the Holy sect.
Of course, he had long since noticed Liu Mei taking the third test, and how easily she had dealt with her own opponent, making him shiver in the process. At the same time, a terrifying feeling had sprouted in his heart when he noticed the 3 peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators that Liu Mei had summoned during the fourth test.
Although he hadn't seen what had happened to the old woman with the red armor during the third test, he clearly remembered that Liu Mei's enormous, hideous black beast, had clearly eaten the old man in black robes and the snake-eyed middle-aged man!

And yet, somehow, Liu Mei could actually command them freely! Of course, the red-robed young man had already sensed, that even though Liu Mei was commanding them, the 3 of them were already dead. Even in death the 3 of them weren't free!
Of course, aside from Liu Mei, the red-robed young man had also noticed other terrifying monsters who had passed the fourth test as well, including Shun Long, the black-robed Jiang Chen, the golden-robed Sheng Huang and many others.
The geniuses who had appeared in the fourth test this time, had already far exceeded his expectations, especially the blue-robed young man next to Liu Mei whose cultivation was only at the peak of rank 1 in the Nascent Soul!
After turning his gaze towards another young man in red robes who was silently standing a few meters away from him, the red-robed young man took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, as he slowly walked towards the ball of fate next to Elder Zhuan.
Seeing the young man who was standing in front of him, Elder Zhuan nodded his head and turned his gaze at the ball of fate next to him, almost as if he was waiting for the red-robed young man to place his hand on top of it....
The red-robed young man named Zi Zhenya stretched out his hand, and without any hesitation, he placed it directly on top of the crystal-like white ball.
Everyone noticed that Zi Zhenya didn't even need to circulate his qi, as the crystal ball lit up with a pale yellow light.
And yet, this light only lasted for a few moments, before it quickly turned white a few seconds later.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him Elder Zhuan shook his head without a change in his expression, as he looked at Zi Zhenya and said in a calm tone

''You can at most become a Dao King in your life, but it's unlikely that you will even reach the late-stages of the Dao King realm, let alone become a Dao Emperor...
Next.''
Zi Zhenya felt his hopes being shattered while a stifling overcame him in an instant.
''Would at most become a Dao King? Wouldn't even become a late-stage Dao King, let alone a Dao Emperor?
He was the descendant of an early rank 9 Dao King! His grandfather was a powerhouse and yet he had failed the fourth test of the Holy sect in the past. Zi Zhenya was certain that since he had managed to do so, he would at least become a peak Dao King like Elder Zhuan, if not a Dao Emperor.''
Everyone's eyes were focused on the red-robed young man who had yet to move from his spot, almost as if he was in a daze, before Elder Zhuan's words sounded once again
''Did you think that every single one of you who passed the test would become peak Dao Kings at the very least, or even Dao Emperors? You never know what's going to happen in your life, and whether you will survive to see the sunrise tomorrow.
As cultivators you should know that talent isn't everything! You also need luck, powerful comprehension ability, and most importantly, a strong will. Some of you may not even enter the middle-stages of the Dao King realm in your lives, let alone the late-stages. Of course, some of you may even become powerful Dao Emperors, but if you think that becoming a Dao Emperor is so easy, then think again! Those with terrifying talent will find it even more difficult to step into the Dao King realm in the future, let alone the Dao Emperor!''
As he said this, Elder Zhuan's gaze swept past Shun Long, Liu Mei, Jiang Chen, and the other terrifying geniuses that had caught his eye during the fourth test, almost as if he was warning them.
The red-robed Zi Zhenya stepped away from the ball of fate, but a determined look had appeared in his eyes. He simply refused to believe that he wouldn't become a peak Dao King in the future!
As Zi Zhenya stepped back from the ball of fate, Elder Zhuan turned his gaze towards Liu Mei, and looking at her with a curious look in his eyes, he then said
''You are next.''

Pink Mage
There are many types of Mages; The Arcane Mages stuck in their towers studiously dedicated to magic and understanding, The Elemental Mages the most powerful and versatile branch, and finally the color mages who are a potent mix of the two. Of the color Mages, there are the primary Red, Blue, Yellow the rare White, Black, Infrared, and Ultraviolet the legendary Gamma and Beta, and finally there are the secondary colors, also known as the mixs Green, Brown, Orange, Purple, and finally Pink. Updates will be sporadic based on inspiration and motivation. Warning: I am a lazy uninspired individual so ya... So the inspiration for this is how everyone online is always a carry or assassin and nobody plays support classes to help the team. Also, there have been studies that the "support" roles at work in RL never get recognition for keeping the company cogs greased and turning. It's always the "top" [employee title] and the extra stuff people do to keep the business running is never appreciated. So I decided to wright Pink Mage. He is a support, though he has spells so he isn't a [Support] and incapable of defending himself. None of the classes are completely useless in a fight or without proper application. But the [Pink Mage] class is bugged so that there is no way to gimp the system to legendary status. All the other Solo legends can... well... Solo, but a [Legendary Pink Mage] can't solo, period. Sure he could cast a mix of spells so that an army is basically chickens on the chopping block but he would still have to go out there and gut them with a knife one by one. I don't own the title image, It was grabbed from public domain. Warning: the content warnings are real, though the content warned of is sporadic. I don't try to right that content specifically but Micky's life won't shy away from it! So yeah, rating R... Note: This is neither a 'Feel Good' or a 'Tragedy' and doesn't have those tags for a reason. This is the 'Real' biography and adventurers of the MC as I see the fantasy universe. So it is neither going to have extra lucky encounters or terrible ones (Except there will be, because you know, story.)

Points of Light - An Oral History of the Collapse
Humanity endures. The phrase is not only an informal slogan of the reformed United Nations, but a rallying cry the world over. Even in the face of extermination, we struggled, we fought, and we endured. But just how close did we actually come? In our darkest hour, how many steps separated our species from oblivion? And are we even safe now? Were the mistakes made by earlier generations really so obvious? Or are they only so blatent when we look back with the advantage of hindsight? If so, what horrors might be staring us in the face even now that no one has the foresight to prevent? Drawn from thousands of interviews, as well as uncorrupted contemporary recordings and source documentation dating back to the early 2000s; Points of Light is a definative look at the last half century of upheaval, prosperity and carnage. It tells the tale of what happened, how it happened, who was responsible and most importantly, what we might be able to do to prevent it from happening again. This is a rewrite of a previously started fiction under a pen-name. Chapters will be updated every two days at 6:00 EST.

Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*

absolution.
When Tommy dies, he expects to see Wilbur. Or Schlatt. Hell, even Mexican Dream. After all, that'd mean that there was at least an afterlife in the DreamSMP. What he doesn't expect is to wake up to another world, one that his communicator tells him isn't exactly a server. He can't seem to find any other servers, this one doesn't have a whitelist, and... there's no admin. No Dream. Instead, there are heroes. Heroes, villains, vigilantes, and civilians. There are powers called quirks, and they don't come from hybrid traits--they're natural. There's an entirely different society, one that doesn't have records of discs, mistakes, and the Blood God in its history for its base. There are schools that teach hero-wannabes how to soar to the top, and there are villains capable of flipping the world over its very roots. There were no heroes in his past life. Tommy himself is far from one.Yet maybe, in this life, he can at least try to be there for those who need it.===or; in which Tommy Innit "Theseus" Craft becomes a vigilante, a cafe barista, and then a somewhat-hero, wrecking BnHA canon in the processor, a dsmp x bnha crossover because i'm in love with the idea===(WARNING: this fic will depict lots, and i mean Lots, of sensitive themes, including but not limited to: violence, trauma, suicide themes, etc. due to the dsmp in general as well as how i'm making this realistic as i can. if you are triggered by some of these sensitive topics or what c!tommy goes through, DO NOT READ THIS.
