After Arc left, Gravis' mood had improved by a ton.
Tempering!
It was high time for some more tempering!
Even more, this would be his first opponent six levels above himself!
A feeling of overwhelming pressure appeared on Gravis' shoulders.
He knew that feeling.
This was the very familiar feeling of pressure Gravis got whenever he was about to truly put his life on the line.
However, the feeling of pressure had a much greater impact than usual.
Usually, Gravis enjoyed this feeling since it meant that Gravis was about to become even more powerful. This feeling had accompanied Gravis ever since he had started cultivating. It had been ever-present for a huge part of his life.
But things had changed.
Now, Gravis was not only living for himself but for others as well.
Especially Stella.
What if he died?
