Chapter 65: GOLD I

Noah glanced at the floors of the Tower of Champions and the Shattered Planes Elemental Rifts as a myriad of thoughts crossed through his mind.

The most important one and the one that he had been focusing on the most was...how different he was compared to everyone else in this Ethereal Realm!

Of course, this difference came in terms of how rapidly one could advance through the Realms of Power.

There was Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Platinum for the Ranks...as he had already torn through the first three as he could now enter GOLD within the next few hours as long as he climbed a few floors of the Tower and faced the GOLD Rift Boss of the 50th floor!

For the rewards of the Floor, he could already see that among them were [+5 GOLD Rank Cores] and even another [INHERENT Skill Book], similar to how he got such a book on the 25th Floor.

He didn't know how many more floors he would have to clear before he achieved the DIAMOND Rank and then PLATINUM, but he knew that if he spent a majority of his time in the Tower of Champions, he could achieve this in a matter of weeks!

This was how different he was to the natives of the Ethereal Realm with his Idle Gaming System!

They had to fight over the resources of Dimensional Rifts, where a bloody war had broken out just because a Ruler of one region wanted to get his hands on the access of a Diamond Rift that held loot which helped the past Ethereal Emperor cross over into the next Rank and become the strongest being.

With his access to the Tower and Shattered Elemental Rifts...he had the chance to obtain an endless supply of loot as long as he continued to climb higher!

After a few tens of floors of the Tower, he would encounter DIAMOND Ranked Dimensional Beasts. Above the 100th floor, or even before that, who was to say he wouldn't come across creatures at the Platinum Level?

That was how ridiculous his Idle Gaming System was, where his rate of growth could actually be exponential!

He wouldn't have a blockage or slow down as he rose in strength, and it might even allow for him to rise through the ranks faster!

The only thing he had to pay attention to for his strength...was his Units.

They had been the forefront reason for his rapid rise in strength, where he considered the [Upgrade Crystals] Loot one of the most important resources aside from Cores.

With the Upgrade Crystals to fuse two units of one Rank into another...such a ridiculous feature was the main reason he was rising so fast in strength. It is what gave him the Silver Units that gave him the power to Subjugate the Silver Blessed of Academy City, and also what allowed him to very quickly get the GOLD Unit that allowed him to decimate the fighting strength of two GOLD Blessed!

When his thoughts reached this juncture, his eyes shone with brilliant light as he knew...he could have this whole Realm in the palm of his hands in just a matter of weeks or months! As long as he continued his rate of progression…

RUMBLE

He waved his hands to call forth the Conflagrant Pegasus and his other units as his cold voice rang out.

"When I achieve GOLD, what's to stop me from going to every Subjugated City and putting their Golden Commanders under me?"

OOOM!

"When I reach DIAMOND, the Rank that the top experts within this Realm have...what's what's stop me from taking a Party of DIAMOND Rift Bosses and decimating the so called Dark King and his forces?!"

RUMBLE!

His voice reverberated across the Waiting Room as his eyes shone with eyes that seemed to want to devour everything.

The light died down as he began to make steady steps towards the Tower.

His heart became calm as he knew the moment he achieved the power he was calculating he would achieve...he would flip the whole board that the Blessed of the Ethereal Realm were playing on!

---

As Noah realized his terrifying potential and entered the Tower of Champions, a clash occurred between the forces of the three warring Continents!

In a region known as Wandering Plains that was filled with long stretches of Valleys surrounded by mountains, the normally clear skies were cloudy as the verdant greenery was trampled by the boots of tens of thousands of Blessed.

The alliance of forces from the Dark and Wild Continents made their way deeper into the Light Continent, coming face to face with battalions that blazed with fighting spirit as they came in contact at the center of the Wandering Plains.

OOOOH!

Bellows and shouts rang out from both sides as thousands of Bronze Blessed clashed on this expansive battlefield, led by hundreds of Silver Blessed at the forefront as the Golden Commanders took to the skies to face each other.

What proceeded to happen after this clash at the Wandering Plans was immense bloodshed that hadn't been seen in the Ethereal Realm for years!

The truth of the Light Continent having many more Rifts of greater variety was displayed as the Battalions from the Imperial Capital were adorned with powerful Equipment.

Their bodies brimmed with power as terrifying skills flew to decimate their enemies, the Battalions from the other two Continents only being able to keep them at bay because of their combined forces!

Golden Commanders led the forces on both sides as at this moment, neither side utilized their DIAMOND experts that could overpower entire Battalions by themselves. It wasn't time for such a thing yet!

But this caused for there to be no victor, the battle only becoming prolonged as the forces of the Wild and Dark Continent were not able to advance forward, while the Battalions of the Light Continent could not push them back.

A stalemate had occurred!
