The villagers informed Ron that the empire is at war, and as a result, their village guards have gone to assist in the battle. The empire is struggling due to a severe food shortage, as many villages are facing similar situations.
The Guide instructed Ron, "Quickly open the portal to the next floor. We are going to participate in the war."
Ron questioned, "How do you know it's a war on the next floor?"
The Guide replied, "Don't you know? I was also a challenger who has experienced this before. The tower took me to another world to help its people. On the 10th floor, the tower assigns you a profession based on your contributions. The tower acts like a guild where people pray to the gods for help, but instead of intervening directly, the gods send players to assist. The rules of the tower changed before I arrived. So, just open the next floor and defeat all your opponents."
Reluctantly, Ron opened the portal and entered the 8th floor. As the Guide had said, he found himself in the middle of a warzone.
Ding! A voice echoed: "Destroy the enemies of the Borne Empire and protect the nearby villages."
However, the war hadn't started yet. The soldiers of the Solitary Empire were fearful, suffering from low morale due to the drought in the nearby villages.
Ron approached the general and asked, "Can I participate in the war?"
The general looked him up and down, "You look strong for a teenager, but the soldiers have already lost their morale. They're starving because of the food shortage."
Ron explained the situation in the villages and suggested they focus on rescuing the villagers first, adding that he could handle the war on his own.
The general scoffed, "Are you in your right mind? Do you think you're a sword master or something?"
Ron responded confidently, "I'm not a sword master, but I am a Martial Artist. I also need training, so I'm using this war to improve my swordsmanship. You just focus on breaking the barrier, helping the villagers find a new place to live, and providing them with sustenance."
The general ordered all soldiers to return to their villages and protect them. He left a small group to guard the gate, entrusting its defense to Ron.
Ron smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I've had a good fight. This will be a great training session." He observed the battlefield, estimating around 1,500 enemy soldiers. "A good number for farming some stat points." As he stepped forward onto the battlefield, he suddenly broke through to the Foundation Realm. His body cultivation forcibly advanced to the next stage. The force of his breakthrough shattered the ground, and his overwhelming killing intent struck fear into his opponents, leaving them trembling. A new ability awakened within him, tied to his cultivation.
Ding! You have entered the Foundation Realm. Ding! You have reached the Steel Body stage. Ding! You have obtained Sword Qi. Ding! Your swordsmanship is increasing dramatically. Ding! You have become a Peak Stage sword user.
Ron now resembled a monster awakened from a long slumber.
The soldiers of the Bronze Empire launched a volley of arrows at Ron, but none could penetrate his Sword Qi barrier. Activating his dash skill, Ron began massacring the enemies, his Sword Qi cutting through anyone in his path. Leaping into the sky, his sword move covered the entire battlefield, killing 1,000 soldiers with a single strike.
Ding! You have learned a sword technique on your own. Ding! Your swordsmanship is improving dramatically.
Ron restored his energy by absorbing the poison energy he had stored earlier, then continued to clear the battlefield. To the Bronze Empire's soldiers, Ron appeared as a living sword, cutting down everything in his path. He moved so fast that his enemies couldn't even see or react to his movements. The remaining soldiers attempted to flee back to the Bronze Empire, but Ron didn't let a single one escape. He caught the general of the Bronze Empire and took him to the Solitary Empire, presenting him as a prisoner.
"I'd like to see your king," Ron said.
Ding! Name the technique you have used. Ron named the technique "Heavenly Slayer Technique."
