n8 minutes ago, when Jay entered the Reality Emulator, a Lv.3 Goblin materialised within the Augmented Space he was in.

nAlthough the Goblin in front of him was a simulation, it looked so lifelike that anyone could barely distinguish it from a real monster.

nEven if the 3rd Prince didn't mention that everything else in the Augmented Space is virtual, Jay would have seen through it using the . After all, those monster simulations don't have soul in them.

nJust before entering the Reality Emulator, Jay used to limit 5 Strength Attribute stats so that all five of his Attributes would have the same amount of stats.

nWith his Spirit Attribute being at 198 stats, his perception of time was 19.8 times higher than a normal person, meaning that he could experience every second as if it was 19.8 seconds.

nSince his other four Attributes also have the same amount of stats, he began to experience True Time Perception, where he could passively perceive time as if it was moving 19.8 times slower than the standard measurement.

nThose that don't have the same amount of stats in each of the 5 Attributes, could only use False Time Perception, where maintaining the increased time perception state comes with increased mental exhaustion.

nAs the True Time Perception would be beneficial to Jay in clearing the difficulty levels as fast as possible, he didn't mind limiting his Strength Attribute to match the other Attributes.

nMoreover, doing that also activated the skill , bringing perfect control over his Attribute stats and at the same time, the skill's effect began to suppress his emotions.

nUnder the influence of True Time perception, Jay was even able to sense his emotions gradually grow distant and the three-second countdown seemed as if it was frozen along with the Tier-1 Low-Phase monster standing near him.

nMeanwhile, looking at the Lv.3 Goblin made him think back to when he was first teleported to the Trial World. After all, the first monster he encountered was a Goblin.

nIn just a few days, he had grown from cautiously surviving to roaming unhindered within any Trial Zone.

nHowever, Jay's resolve to become stronger than anyone else remained the same ever since he visited his comatosed grandfather on Day-1's rest period.

nOne such step to reach that goal was to have Earth's Trial Zone score highest among the Trial Regional Tournaments that were simultaneously taking place in the Trial World and receive bountiful rewards from that.

nSeeing that there was a quarter of a second left in the countdown, which was equivalent to 5 seconds for him, Jay pinched in both his right-hand forefinger and thumb as a violet ball of energy the size of a marble at the junction of those fingers.

nOnce the countdown ended, he flicked it at the Goblin and before the monster could react there was a marble-sized hole in its head, instantly killing it.

nEven before a second could pass in the first difficulty level, Jay already entered the next one and a Tier-1 Mid-Phase monster manifested as another three-second countdown began.

nJust like the previous monster, it died under the skill, which Jay came up with on the Day-9 rest period so that it could be used with minimal Spirit Energy expenditure.

nThis continued till Jay crossed the 9th difficulty level and all of that took just 36 seconds, including the three-second countdown in each difficulty level.

nMeaning that Jay took care of each monster in less than a second.

nTill the 6th difficulty level, Jay used to one shot each monster but from 7th to 9th difficulty levels, Jay personally swung his sword at them, slicing each of them in two.

nUnlike in the previous two difficulty levels, Jay used and in the 9th difficulty level.

nAfter all, the monster in there was an Lv.50 Orc, a peak Tier-3 monster.

nHe could have killed it even without using those, but in order to clear the 9th difficulty level in the shortest time possible, Jay didn't mind expending a small portion of his Spirit Energy.

nSince Jay wasn't ranked 1st in Earth's Alpha Chosen due to only being at Lv.25, he wasn't shown in one of the 100 screens in the Colosseum. If not, his performance would have undoubtedly caught everyone's eyes.

nJay right away entered the 10th difficulty level and a random monster was generated. Unlike the massive sizes of Tier-3 monsters, the Tier-4 Low-Phase monster facing him was just two meters tall.

nDespite having a humanoid physique, it crouched on all fours like an animal. Including its long tail and skinny skeletal wings, its body was covered in stony hide and the grotesque face with short horns over its forehead only made it look more hideous.

nIn Augmented Space, he doesn't have to use to make his attack as strong as possible.

nTheir combination was not stable and began to deteriorate the sword's durability, albeit at a slow pace.

nJay didn't worry about that since he could have it restored as long as 's durability doesn't fall to zero.

nAs soon as the countdown ended, Jay shot that combined attack in the form of a curved blade projectile at the Arch Gargoyle's head.

nDespite the attack's zapping speed, the monster still managed to move its body from fatal damage but a portion of its left-wing took the hit, blasting it apart in the process.

nOther than crippling the monster's ability to fly, that attack aggravated it, even more, causing it to attack in a flurry.

nWith a little over 300 stats in Strength and Agility Attributes, its movement speed was nothing to scoff at.

nDespite using to move at 200 metres per second, Jay barely managed to dodge its sharp claws.

nWith each of his 5 Attributes being at least 100 stats lower than the Arch Gargoyle, Jay could forget attacking it head-on.

nJay's only chance to defeat it lay in using the heavy attack power of the Thunder Flame element.

nIn the 10th difficulty level, the Augmented Space expanded to an area of 1km x 1km x 1km, leaving enough room to manoeuvre but due to the lack of suitable terrain in the seemingly endless white Augmented Space, Jay didn't have the chance to bring out the full potential of .

nBecause of that, even when Jay tried his best to evade, he still received a few of Arch Gargoyle's physical attacks, which sent him flying across the limited Augmented Space to be crashed into its white wall.

nEven with the sturdy defence of 's full body armour form, the Arch Gargoyle's attacks still chipped away a small portion of Jay's health.

nIt was not his actual Health but the extra Health Bar given in the Augmented Space to emulate his real Health and once it drops to zero, that will be considered as failing the 10th difficulty level and will be sent out of the Reality Emulator.

nWith having to continuously dodge using , Jay expended almost half of his Spirit Energy in just a minute since the fight began.

nJay tried using Thunder Flame to attack but as a monster with little more than 300 stats in all five Attributes, its Time Perception was high enough to see through Jay's attacks and managed to dodge them successfully.

nThis continued for another minute and Jay almost emptied his Spirit Energy reserve and his Health Bar dropped to 40%.

nWith his current stats, Jay suspected that he couldn't defeat the Arch Gargoyle unless he enters mode.

nHowever, he only has a single chance left to use mode before it becomes temporarily available until he breaks past the 1st Universe Limit.

nJay felt it's unwise to use that last chance unless it's a life-threatening situation. So, instead of using that, Jay used 's inbuilt skill to refill his Spirit Energy reserve and proceeded to activate a skill that he hadn't ever used before.
