Kapitel 771: Four Pillars: The Reality

"Wait… what?"

Listening to the voice's words, Valyr instantly felt a great amount of confusion. "Aren't I supposed to fight against nine opponents in total?"

"If so, why's the voice telling me that I'm facing my eighth and final opponent?"

Scratching the back of his head as he mulled over it, he went over the rules the monotonous voice had given him regarding the Trial of Nine Stars once more.

From what he could recall, he would be fighting a total of three sub-trials, with each sub-trial being made up of three opponents that got progressively stronger.

Aside from that, his opponents would either push him towards combat, or towards his other specialty, which was forging.

So far, the two sub-trials he had passed with flying colors more or less followed that mechanic. In fact, the same could even be said for his forging duel with Nila, who had a level of strength right at the early levels of Rank 6.
