Doomsday Pillars

Today, Alex congratulates his two other teams who succeed on completing the second challenge, following Alex\'s team. The two teams are Arief\'s group together with Jerry\'s group. Both of them also manage to complete the challenge with A Grade completion score.

The top personal ranking was obtained by Jerry, Dinda, Tommy, and Arief. Apart from obtaining a large amount of spirit credit, each of them also received a high-level item reward. Seeing Tommy, a 14-year-old teenager, succeed in getting high ranking in the challenge motivates all the other fighters to try harder.

From this second challenge, each one who scored extremely well received fifteen thousand to twenty thousand spirit credits, which is a lot. Now, it is time for them to use that spirit credit to increase their realm.

Alex provided the same information he given to the previous group regarding advancement to the Sky realm. They all had to decide whether they want to upgrade as a Magus or a Knight.

Arief, Jerry, Aria, Sergei, Dinda, Raufghar, Ark, Daisy, and Tommy, those who have A grade aptitude did not hesitate to immediately upgrade their realm into Sky realm Magus.. Meanwhile people like Darius, Oscar, Oliver, and Theo are forced to be patient and return to deepen their understanding of their respective spirit elements.

A total amount of thirty five B grade aptitude fighters need to refrain themselves from upgrading to Sky realm fighter.

Alex estimates that it will still take them six to nine months until they can reach the peak understanding of their respective elements. Meanwhile, those C grade aptitude fighters needed even more time to achieve the same result, which ranged from two to three years.

Alex continues to persuade them to be patient and wait until the right time to advance their realm. He truly understands their feelings because in his previous life he also had a similar experience with them, being part of those who were left behind from others. No matter how hard he focused and tried, the progress that he made was miniscule at best. The contrast between fighters of B grade and C grade aptitude was the greatest indicator between those who gifted in spirit power and not.

All of these fighters are comrades in the fight against orcs and zombies, in fact many of them have even been together as an army soldier. For the fighters to see their comrades advancing to the Sky realm is quite tempting for them, which on the contrary made them work even harder to keep up with their comrade\'s steps.

It is not easy for them to remain patient and maintain concentration to practice and meditate when those around them need help. In the end, of the more than a hundred C grade fighters that was left, only half of them had decided not to advance to the Sky realm.

A total of one hundred elite fighters consisting of thirty five B grade fighters and sixty five C grade fighters, all agreed to return and train their understanding in the training room until they reach its peak. At this point, there was not much else Alex could do for his fighters.

The remaining three hundred eighty fighters began to upgrade themselves through the limits of Earth realm and becoming a Sky realm Knight.

[Upgrade into Sky realm Knight?]

[2500 spirit stones are required]

Its Half the amount of spirit stones require to breaking through as the sky realm Magus.

All three hundred eighty fighters, each of them, one by one began to upgrade into Sky realm Knight and with this they had reached the pinnacle of human physical strength.

[Sky realm level 1 - early stage]

Even though the Sky realm is the last realm that they can reach, but this stage still have 30 levels consisting of early stage, middle stage, high stage, and peak stage of Sky realm.

And this time, compared to when Alex advanced to the peak of Earth realm, it was not as easy to advance to the peak of Sky realm. 

For these newly ascended knights, Alex could only encourage them to train and focus on one type of weapon. Swords, hammers, cudgels, axes, knives, spears, bow and arrows, shotguns, shields, hand-to-hand combat, and other type of weapons. They can choose from either one of these myriad collection of weapons. Apart from that, Alex also encourages them to master the combat art skill. These are the special skill that doesn\'t rely on the power of the element.

In the Earth realm, each of Spirit Enchancer can learn dozens of basic spirit manual and after reaching Sky realm they can finally begin to learn Advanced level spell, provided they have mastered Sky realm early stage spirit manual.

[2000 spirit stones]

[Advanced Sword Art skill]

[Advanced Longsword technique - basic]

[2000 spirit stones]

[Use spirit credit]

Including the cost of upgrading his realm, Alex has already used up nine thousand spirit credits. If he didn\'t earn the double bonus point in his previous challenge, he would run out of spirit credits at this point. The same thing happens to all fighter in all parts of the world.

To reach the peak stage of Sky realm one needed not only talent and time but spirit stones as well.

All nine A grade aptitude fighters who have elevated themselves to the Sky realm Magus are the main force of the star army. Alex had to make sure they could reach the peak of their realm soon.

Now everyone is refocusing on mastering the early stages of their elemental spirit. Alex expected a minimum of 2-4 weeks for them to do this.

Besides the level 2 training hall. Again, they opened access [Store - Level 2]

Unlike the level 1 store, this level 2 store provided access to tier 2 weapons and gears, all have a price range from one thousand to ten thousand spirit credits.

[Storage ring - Tier 2]

[Storage space : 10 cubic meters]

[3000 spirit stones]

With the appearance of the tier 2 stone golem, the golem who accompanied Alex at the start can now be owned in general.

Alex himself currently has a tier 2 sword artifact weapon. He then advises his current team to buy protective gear respectively.

[Combat Armor - Tier 2]

[Medium Armor]

[Weight : 7 kilograms]

[Protective energy 100/100]

[3000 spirit stones]

This tier 2 combat armor has a protective shield, which is very useful for the safety of Alex\'s fighters when they are fighting. This tier 2 combat armor are also rarely found and cannot be made by craftsmen at the Bali headquarters. So when the level 2 store opened, it was time for all the fighters to have new armor, replacing the snake skin armor that were made at star headquarters.

With enough Spirit Credit, now except the 100 who are not yet to upgrade the realm, all the fighters will each have a tier 2 protective armor and tier 2 weapon. Alex elite fighters suddenly multiply their battle power.

After upgrading their realm and purchasing the armor and weapon. suddenly all their spirit credit are drained. Still wishing they can get more items from the store but the specifications and prices of each of these artifact made them only able to drool over it.

Luckily, Alex already had the solution for this. In this continent, there are 28 Doomsday Pillar that are ready to increase their level and also fill their pockets with lots of spirit credit. But before that, Alex receive many messages from the other doomsday pillars across the globe.
