Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

Chapter 261 Breakthrough, Royal Academy

Astral Snow Mountain was a big snowy mountain that had an exquisite resort-type structure built on it.

Arkhen, Sierra, and Meya went there in the evening, had dinner, and then a wild, passionate night began.

…

In the noon next day, the three of them left Astral Snow Mountain. Meya had a big rosy smile on her face and was walking while grabbing Arkhen's arm.

Of course, Sierra was also the same as she had grabbed Arkhen's arm.

As they descended the mountain, many envious glances were shot in their direction.

[My lord, a dream fragment appeared. Meya and Sierra need to go purify it].

Arkhen paused in his steps upon hearing that.

"What happened, Arkhen?"

"Sorry, but you two need to work for a bit," Arkhen said with a wry smile. "It's a dream fragment and you need to purify it like you did previously."

"Fine. But what will you do meanwhile? Any plan?" Meya asked.

"I want to participate in that alchemy competition, so I am going to the Royal Academy."

"Nice. I heard that Royal Academy is very liberal. You don't need to be a student to learn and compete there. There are knight orders, and other many organizations' trainees who go there," Meya said.

"No fees?" Sierra asked in a surprised tone.

"Nope. Though it costs to learn some specific things, there are no fees for entry or anything. They allow this so that students of the academy can interact with all kinds of powerhouses and learn through an exchange."

"Haha, that sounds like a cool place for us," Arkhen said with a grin. "Alright, I am sending you two inside Mystic Wonderland. Find the dream fragment and purify it while I go to the academy."

…

Arkhen descended the mountain alone and walked towards a bunch of carriages.

"I want to go to the Royal Academy," Arkhen said to the man sleeping on the driving seat of the carriage.

"Get inside. But you will have to wait for five minutes before I start moving because I am waiting for some people who are also going to the Royal Academy."

"Alright," Arkhen said as he sat inside the carriage. He also needed some time to arrange a few things.

After getting inside the big carriage, Arkhen said to Velshi, 'Can you create my clone here? It doesn't need to be perfect and truly alive. It just needs to be seen alive by exuding some aura.'

[I can. It will cost roughly a thousand reality motes and it will only stay for an hour].

'Do it. I am entering Mystic Wonderland, so you put that clone to replace me here.'

…

Arkhen entered inside Mystic Wonderland as the clone replaced him inside the carriage.

"Let's do some combining first," Arkhen said as he entered the skill pavilion.

He took out three Combat Arts scrolls and put them in the three floating orbs.

SSS rank Combat Art, Arbitrary rage.

SSS rank Combat Art, Deviant Power Veins.

SS rank Combat Art, Revolution Vermillion.

"Combine," Arkhen muttered as he activated the function through the panel floating in front of him.

[1000 reality essence deducted]

This was the cost of combining.

The three orbs started spinning and circulating as they got closer.

Soon, all three orbs combined into one before dropping a Combat Art scroll on the circular table on the floor.

After the combination was finished, the combined orb separated and turned into three orbs in a triangle point position again.

Arkhen picked up the scroll from the table and opened it.

EX rank Combat Art, Deviant Phoenix Dance!

"Now I have two EX rank combat arts, haha. Need one more and then I combine three EX rank combat arts for a better one."

[Yep. It will either be an EX+ rank or a Supreme rank].

"Also, this auto training is going very well. All of my ponds are refined. I can break through anytime," Arkhen said as he checked his inner space.

He had put a sufficient amount of essence stones, enough to refine all three of his ponds to the max. His soul was also refined to the max with those soul star dews.

All ponds were 100% progress in the 4th class stage.

'Velshi, can I hold off my post-breakthrough reward? I want to break through right now but don't want my consciousness to wander into a mysterious place.'

[Eh, that is not possible but no worry, haha. After you break through to the 5th class, your consciousness will not go anywhere because you won't get any reward this time].

"Huh? Why?" Arkhen was confused but then remembered the reward of the 5th class's post-breakthrough and wryly smiled. "You are right. Well, time to break through."

The realm's reward of 5th class post-breakthrough was upgrading one's superpower.

However, Arkhen never got a superpower through his Star of Endowment since he already had three superpowers and three was a limit for him.

For most people, the limit was having 2 superpowers but Arkhen had an extra limit because of the system.

…

It didn't take long for Arkhen to break through. After a few minutes, his ponds expanded in size with a new structure.

He then added all remaining high-grade rainbow essence stones, which equated to roughly a thousand.

"Yosh! Now replace me with the clone inside the carriage," Arkhen said.

…

Arkhen appeared inside the carriage while his clone appeared inside Mystic Wonderland.

"Hmm? They are not here yet?" Arkhen asked.

"Sorry, young man. It's been roughly ten minutes, but they just called me and told me they will be here in a minute."
