บท 46: Second Test

A wave of surprise washed over the training grounds as Sebastian took center stage. 

The students, still catching their breath from their intense session with Jiàn Gāng, looked up at him with a mixture of apprehension and curiosity.

"Alright everyone! Time to wipe the sweat from your brows and get ready for round two! Today's lesson: how to handle a rogue hero!"

A collective groan rippled through the students. 

The news of even more training, especially after their grueling session with Jiàn Gāng, was less than welcome. 

Meanwhile, Alex stood beside Jiàn Gāng, now at his side, couldn't help but steal a glance at the newly crowned Tenth Strongest Mankind. 

Curiosity burned bright in his eyes. "So, hey there, Mr. Ten,."

"Haha, just call me Alex. You seem much older than me anyway."

Jiàn Gāng let out a hearty chuckle. "Right… Though, I can't help but be curious. How did you gain such power? Did you perhaps use... magic steroids?"
