After leaving the battle arena, Alex went to a hotel and asked his guardians if they knew why his promotion to the fourth Rank failed.
"The Ruler Pride skill is unique and could provide tremendous benefits in exchange for a meager price, and even though temporarily it does legitly advance your Rank but it has its limitation,"
"The Ruler Pride skill seals the unique gifts of the user before temporarily raising their Rank, and your Rank promotion failed because the skill failed in sealing your physique because of its higher grade and the current limitations of the skill,"
"There could be some other reason for the skill failure, but I am fairly certain my thinking is correct because the previous Ruler also received the Ruler Pride skill, and he experienced the same situation," Elder Darrien said, calmly like the whole situation was no big deal.
