《Realistic Tower of God: The Martial Way》Chapter 30- E-ranked Regulars Part 2
Advertisement
After killing off the light bearer, Xin continued to wreak havoc in the backline. Without a defender or a fisherman to protect the relatively weak light-bearers and wave controllers, their formation could be broken relatively easily, for Xin that was.
As a member of the Tu Perie family, even though his base physical power was weaker than those from the Khun, Arie, and Ha families, Xin was way above the most regulars, and even those massive hybrids regulars. And with his extensive training, his strength had grown exponentially.
Xin was confused when he was told to train with heavy weights because he hadn't heard of such a method of body training. However, after applying that for a while, he felt that his muscles became much stronger and he could unleash much greater strength.
With such advantages, he made a quick work of the light bearers and wave controllers, breaking apart their bones with his powerful strength or stabbing them on their weak spots, bringing each of them down in a single strike.
"That kid isn't bad, his combat skills are above average, especially considering his young age. It's a bit weird to see someone from the ten great of families who doesn't use their inherited talent, though it's not unfounded." The test director commented.
"Indeed, he is not bad, but compared to the fisherman over there, he is sub-par." The Arie Ranker responded as he saw the battle on the other side.
Liu Guanyi calmly stood there with all of the fishermen on the ground. There were only some shallow cuts here and there from the battle. The moment the backline was disrupted, their fates had been sealed. Without the support from the lighthouses, their encirclement couldn't stop him.
The difference in skills and capabilities was just way too much. Liu Guanyi could defeat them without breaking a sweat even when he hadn't made a breakthrough to the Nascent Warrior stage let alone when he had already advanced.

"Incredible! His martial prowess is unimaginable for an unranked regular! How come his body is very tough? Is he a bastard of the Ha family?" The test administrator was astonished.
"Maybe, maybe not. Not everyone with an incredibly strong body hailed from the ten great families, after all the tower is such a vast place, even those natives are exceptional. Plus, the Ha family members usually fight without any real techniques, their strong bodies make them arrogant and reckless. Idiotic I'd say, no wonder they are nothing special, even Ha Yurin." The Arie spoke derisively.
"Watch your words, bro! You could be executed if those from Ha family heard it!" He rebuked his friend' arrogance and stupidity.
"Don't worry, I am a ranker from the Arie family. They can't do anything to me, the Arie family's glory is way above them, idiots, after all." The white-haired ranker brushed it off arrogantly.
With the backline in chaos and the vanguard defeated, the three of them ended the battle less than five minutes without a hitch. Honestly, only Adori alone was more than enough to defeat them all. Her performance in the battle was extremely remarkable.
She defeated more than half of the regulars without being serious and injured! The rankers were speechless, they evaluated that her true power was approximately around C-ranked regulars! This meant that she directly skipped two whole ranks!
How strong she would be when she became a c-ranked regular? Would she be able to defeat an a-ranked regular? Regardless she would be able to do it or not, it was an indisputable fact that she was a monster among monsters.
"This is the best team I have ever seen, there is no weak links between them. Each of them is very strong and excellent in their roles. They only need a decent light bearer and they will make a perfect team." The test director commented.

The Arie ranker nodded. "Let's not make them wait any longer. We must congratulate them, right?"
He hopped down to the arena as the test director followed suit.
"Congratulations, all of you! You are now e-ranked regulars! You can stay here indefinitely or you can go to the lower floors if you want to enjoy your lives, but I am sure that you want to continue to the top, right?" He asked a rhetorical question.
Adori and Liu Guanyi nodded at his question. It was too easy to choose. Even if their power weren't this strong they would still choose to go on, let alone when they overpowered every regular and were unmatched till this date. Furthermore, they were becoming stronger and weren't complacent to keep improving.
If those weaklings could go up and become rankers, why they couldn't?
The Arie ranker happily smiled. "Why don't you stay here a bit longer? I can teach you the way of the sword, Princess Adori. And my friend here could train your teammates, what do you say?"
"Hey, you are increasing my workload! I am not paid enough for this!" The test director complained.
"Oh, shut up! Don't you want to see for yourself their growth? Even if you don't, we can make them owe us a favor. So, how about it, Princess Adori? I might not be the best, but I can teach you my experience as a swordsman from the Arie family." The Ranker offered himself casually.
Adori didn't answer outright instead she glanced toward Liu Guanyi. He saw Adori looking in his direction as their eyes met one another. Seeing this, he nodded.
"I accept." Adori answered curtly.
Seeing her response, the test director and the Arie ranker turned to look at Liu Guanyi and wondered. 'Who is this guy? Why did the princess turn to get his opinion before deciding the answer? It looks like he has some influence on her. Well… it doesn't matter…. she agreed anyway.'
"Good, you can rest for today. However, I hope you better prepare yourselves tomorrow because we won't go easy on you guys." The horned-Ranker spoke with a grin on his face.

The Menocht Loop
Ian Dunai thought he was powerless. He’s not alone: only a small percent of the population have high enough affinities to perform magic.

But death isn’t the end: Ian wakes back up on the dinghy and relives the day again...and again...and again.

I am a 22 year old, Physics, Electrical Engineering double major at Stanford in my senior year. It had been a long day prepping for semester finals, I needed a good hot shower.

It was about 8:45 PM on Monday, November 15th, 2021, and I was getting ready to cross Campus Drive near the Student Services center, when unexpectedly, Lisa, my younger brothers girlfriend called out to me. I turned towards her, twisting my ankle in the process, and started to fall. I am looking at her face, I can see her eyes widening in shock in the street-lamps glow. I can see her start to scream the word “NO” when I am suddenly plunged into utmost blackness.

The struggle for an interesting game has been the story of my life for quite some time. Every game I find is either too easy, not interesting or too short. Luckily, my two brothers who match my level of skill, albeit in different areas, tend to spice things up. When I look at my older brother I have no idea how he gets anything done when he's such an idiot. Still it doesn't detract from my respect for him as a gamer, though maybe a little. When I look at my younger brother I marvel at the monster that my older brother and I created. Deadliness, craftiness and quiet, both in what he does and how he is. When it's just us three we tend to destory everything in our path. So normally we tend to compete rather than team. Although that isn't to say we're just good as individuals. When we work together our effectiveness multiplies rather than lowering. Well enough about us dorks. Anyway a new VR game came out, apparently in development for quite some time. Of course my older brother decided to drive out and buy three copies. What would this one be missing? Difficulty? Depth? Length? In any case I plan to reach the top before my brothers do. It was a competition after all. Twoen had all three things I normally yearn for in spades. Something I did not foresee. A keeper
