Author’s note: I can’t change the value of the privileged chapters this month, but next month I’ll put them all at the lowest price possible, I went with the recommended one and realized it’s a lot of money. Another warning is that I’m always keeping an eye on the top 3 fans and constantly updating the warning chapter with new names
The family’s savings continued to flourish, even more so now that Yan had entered the supermarket business and was dominating the market, injecting money so that all of his products were his own.
They were still in the red, but Kayden could see a solid strategy in Yan’s plans. Over time, the cost of producing food and products would be ridiculously low and they could sell in much larger quantities at lower prices.
Rafaela had transformed space into her special laboratory and only left to go to some specific classes or socialize with some friends. It represented a large expense, but considering Kayden’s savings, it was illusory. Furthermore, she had talent and over time she would pay for all of this double.
Locke and Luan had managed to advance to the second level of the wizard realm and masterfully consolidated their leadership in room nine. Other than that, not much happened.
Kayden talked to them for a few more minutes and said goodbye. He still had a lot to train and test. The first thing he did when he arrived in his room was to take the seed he received from his pocket and place it in front of him.
"This..." The amount of mana inside was ridiculously high and was increasing with each passing minute. Kayden was warned that the seed must be consumed within a few days or it could quickly grow into a sentient life form.
Without wasting any time, he placed it in his mouth and a burst of mana hit every point on his body instantly. The boy felt extremely powerful, there was so much mana that he was unable to move, he was swollen.
The boy began to redirect it to his heart and veins. In just a few minutes, he had leapfrogged months of cultivation. His body needed a lot more mana than before, almost 100 times more per level, from what he was noticing.
The mana seemed to have no end, it was trying to leave his body every moment and blend in with the environment, but Kayden kept his path as much as possible and forced the mana to remain inside him.
Be it your heart or your veins, everything was improved to the maximum in just a few minutes. Kayden felt the usual force pushing him to the next level and smiled.

"So that’s what it’s like to be born with a silver spoon in your mouth." His body began to burn and release impurities from all his pores. No matter how much he improved, there always seemed to be some impurity remaining.
Kayden redirected the will of the world to improve his heart and veins the way he wanted. What he was looking for was resistance to better support his path. This process was extremely painful again, but in just a few minutes he was ready.
Then the world improved his body in general. His muscles, bones, and everything received a small but significant improvement. Kayden continued to observe to try to learn from this and control this improvement in the future.
"Incredible". Kayden didn’t even need to stabilize his base on his advances anymore. The rays removed small defects, making its base, which was already almost perfect, even more perfect.
After thinking for a while, Kayden continued cultivating normally. During the advancement process, the mana loosened up, but it still left his environment quite charged. At the moment, Kayden had nothing to do. The next day, he would start worrying about classes and merit points.
***********
"For free?" Kayden asked again after hearing the answer from the college administration building’s receptionist. She was also in disbelief when she saw it, but she knew that any change in the students’ information came from a higher-level figure.
"That’s right, student Kayden," the receptionist replied. "All classes are free of charge for you. Furthermore, any equipment can be used free of charge." Kayden hadn’t understood the level of hierarchy that Azir represented, but at that moment it became very clear to him.
Kayden discovered that he could join in the middle of classes, but this was not recommended as he would have limited knowledge. It was better to start the same class again the following year.
This meant he had three months free without any classes. Kayden decided to divide his time into three main pillars: cultivation, training in the coliseum, and understanding concepts. The first was the simplest and he could use the special mana rooms with absurd numbers of mana doublings.
Training at the coliseum would only be possible if he could face students from other years. Kayden did not doubt that the top five of his year would represent good training, but they wouldn’t always be available.
Regarding concepts, he should follow a dual path, both about his mana monarch path and about his lightning element. In Bolt’s book, there were several tips for Kayden to follow.
A few minutes later, Kayden was at the coliseum. As he spent a year without facing anyone, he was in the lower levels of the table. The boy didn’t want to waste time-fighting dozens of fights just to be able to face someone decent.
"Send an optional challenge to the top ten," Kayden said. "Offer one trillion gold coins as a victory prize." Kayden knew that without good bait none of them would waste time facing someone at the bottom of the leaderboard.
The person in charge of Kayden quickly made the challenges. He had seen the video of the boy on the internet and knew that he was not someone to be crossed. This became even more evident when a statement from the royal palace came out in favor of Kayden and justified his actions.
After a few seconds, a person appeared and to Kayden’s surprise, it was someone he had already met before Ashley was radiant with her scales and a happy smile.
"Hi Kayden," she said. "Are you ready to give me some money?"
Kayden smiled at the girl and responded friendly. "If you beat me, I’ll give you up to twice as much." This caused the teenager to pout, thinking that Kayden was belittling her. In a way he was, but in reality, it was just pure confidence.
"You can start!" the judge gave the signal and the fight began. Kayden didn’t give a spoonful and activated his path right from the start. Ashley did the same thing and her scales became much more robust and shiny.
Kayden was using a blood-red katana that he received from the king. It only had a black thread in its center and the rest was entirely red. Its handle was made of dark red wood and matched the blade of the weapon.
Kayden used his speed spell but put much more mana into it than normal. In a way, he was able to increase the speed of the spell just by adding mana, but as it was an apprentice-level spell, it was not used to its full capacity.
This was similar to trying to pass water through a small hole. You could pass a large amount of water just by forcing the hole to its limit, but in the end, you wouldn’t be able to put everything you needed.
Kayden arrived very quickly in front of Ashley and made a side slash with his katana. The girl tried to defend the attack with her arm and was successful, but this time a small cut opened. It wasn’t anything really big, but it showed a very different situation than before, where Kayden couldn’t even open his defense without spending a lot of mana.
Instantly, Ashley used a dragon breath against Kayden. It was done subconsciously because of the damage she received. Kayden had already noticed this with his spiritual sense and just dodged it to the side.
He then delivered a straight blow to Ashley’s ribs which once again caused a small cut. His response was a punch from the girl that made him quickly move away.
Kayden didn’t allow the distance to become too far and quickly approached. Ashley feinted to the left and kicked Kayden on the other side. Using his superior speed, Kayden received the attack with his katana and... was pushed back slightly.
Ashley was surprised. His strength should be ridiculously high because of his path, but Kayden wasn’t swinging. As the girl regained her balance, Kayden approached her with a kick to her other leg that made her fall to the ground.
His next attack was a high-speed slash towards Ashley’s neck. This attack was much stronger than all the others and used 100% of Kayden’s strength. If it hit Ashley, she would probably lose her mind.
Fortunately, the referee took her off the field before any fatalities could happen. In a few seconds, the two were back in the stands with Ashley pouting in dissatisfaction. By just one move, she lost.
"I want a rematch," Ashley begged.
"No," Kayden refused.
"Please," she made a wet dog face in the rain.
"No," Kayden repeated.
After that, Kayden decided to return home. He needed to change his techniques urgently. This had just been a test of his body and he did perfectly fine. His body alone was at a ridiculous level.
"Just one more," Ashley insisted.
"I told you no," Kayden replied, appearing to have infinite patience as he denied Ashley’s requests.
