As the tenth floor of the Ascension Tower lit up, another wave of surprise washed over the crowd.
It became clear that Vale was not only attempting to win the competition but was on a daring quest to conquer the Ascension Tower that no one had ever done.
The mystery surrounding the final floor added to the anticipation. No one truly knew what challenges and treasures they could find inside.
The crowd could only imagine the trials and rewards that awaited Vale in this unexplored realm of the Tower.
As this realization sank in, excitement surged through the crowd.
Regardless of their chosen Arcane disciplines, Arcanists from all twelve paths eagerly awaited Vale's emergence.
They knew that even if Vale failed to conquer the Tower, the experience that he had would be an important breakthrough for them.
Furthermore, if he shared the secrets of how to reach the 10th floor, it would greatly benefit their Faction.
