Chapter 380: Three Steps Into the Eighth Tier

Buzz!

A wave of terrifying magic rose within Karoso.

Karoso’s body was being wildly washed by the magic and the rules that came with reaching the seventh tier.

Stepping into the seventh tier!

"Not bad, entering the seventh tier in just the third grade…" Gaitan stared at Karoso intensely.

Right now, Karoso’s movements looked just like a magical girl transforming, but Gaitan didn’t dare to interrupt; after all, if he went forward, the cannons of the fleet would not just be for show.

Karoso’s current level secretly shocked Gaitan.

When Karoso appeared in the Knight Tournament arena as a sixth tier, many people thought this child was done for and would probably remain a sixth tier for life.

Only if he was truly impressive would he have a chance to reach the seventh tier.

It was clear that Karoso had not yet surpassed Gaitan’s understanding.

"Do you want to challenge the next level?" Gaitan smiled, "Come on! Let me see what kind of strength a genius from the Kingdom of Persia has had since its founding!"

"The gap from seventh-tier to eighth-tier is not the same as from fourth-tier to fifth or sixth-tier." Karoso stepped forward again.

The magical power that Karoso had stored for an unknown time began to spread, expand, and then compress within him.

The divine power he had saved inside himself transformed into the purest magical power at this moment.

After several events, Karoso had gathered too much; if he broke through at that time, it would only affect his future.

But now, it won’t be the same.

In less than thirty seconds, the magical power needed to break through from seventh-tier to eighth-tier was full!

This included the power accumulated from Messiah’s dream, the leftover divine power from crossing time, and the divine power remnants forcibly absorbed from Neymar and Sophia by the BOSS card.

These powers had always been there; Karoso just now had enough foundation to digest them.

Karoso had always admired Sophia and Aileen for reaching the eighth tier, but now he no longer needed to envy them.

His eighth tier was even more stable than theirs.

They had connections, and so did Karoso.

Guided by players in the bullet comments, he gathered little by little, and that’s how Karoso gained his magic.

"It’s impossible!" Gaitan widened his eyes. "You don’t have any signs of a Divine Artifact or Power of Faith. Why?"

Sophia and Aileen both used the Power of Faith to advance, which was the only shortcut to being full in the seventh tier.

However, there were no signs of that coming from Karoso.

"What do you think?"

Karoso stepped forward again.

Dream Card, BOSS Card, the fighting styles of the two, especially the way the BOSS Card performed its downgrade to breakthrough within him, each step of understanding the rules filled Karoso’s mind.

Buzz!

Karoso felt a mysterious and profound power appearing inside him.

"Is this the power of the eighth-tier rules?" Karoso glanced at his hands, "Not bad."

The Mark of the Divine Favor and the Card Maker’s mark spun in a yin-yang fish shape within Karoso, cleansing and baptizing his body and organs with rules, making them incredibly tough, while the power inside him reached a level he could hardly understand.

At this moment, Karoso had already reached Gaitan, and a card was thrown from Karoso’s hand.

[Name: Kansho Masamune (Muscle Abnormality Gifted to Master Karoso)]

[Category: Equipment]

[Star Level: 8]

[Rank: Golden Legend]

[Job Restriction: Warrior]

[Description: A regular strike with a critical hit, do you like this kind of weapon?]

A deep blue long sword appeared in Karoso’s hand, filled with wild power.

When Gaitan saw the sword, he instinctively took a step back.

Karoso stepped into the eighth tier with too much confidence, completely ignoring Gaitan, leaving Gaitan stunned!

A drop of cold sweat ran down Gaitan’s forehead.

Damn, damn, damn…

Which fool thought he would be stuck at the seventh tier for his whole life?

Oh no, he is at the eighth tier, right in front of me!

Is this a weak foundation? Does your family’s foundation look like this?

"Director, please teach me," Karoso said, holding the Kansho Masamune and quietly watching Gaitan.

Gaitan swallowed hard and already regretted deciding to fight Karoso.

Jumping from sixth tier straight to eighth tier, what is going on? Does he have some kind of God Card?

Or… has the Flame War God come back to him again?

He is The Favored One; I hope I don’t look foolish for running away at this moment…

The soldiers on the ship looked at each other in surprise as the famous Gaitan suddenly became timid in front of a student.

The battle between top fighters is like ancient Chinese duels; whoever backs down loses morale.

The soldiers saw Gaitan and felt afraid; they became scared too.

The Kingdom of Persia was too comfortable, with hardly any wars, unlike Canglang Province which was built on battles.

Their recruitment demands and standards were very high, but having high-quality soldiers and being strong are not the same thing.

The most important thing is that the Kingdom of Persia does not have many strong generals, at least Gaitan is not one of them.

"Your Highness!" shouted the kingdom’s top wizard, Andrey, "No matter how powerful he is, he is only just at the beginning of the eighth-tier, his magic is not as strong as yours!"

"And he has never fought using rules; he is not your opponent!"

"He was definitely at the peak of the seventh-tier before, hiding his magic with rare items. This breakthrough is for this battle; he is putting psychological pressure on you!"

Hearing Andrey’s words, Gaitan finally became clear-minded.

Yes, even if he is strong, he has just broken through to the eighth-tier!

I have worked hard to get here for so long, and I am still the head of the Warrior Academy at Marl Academy. Can I really be scared by a student?

The comparison between an ordinary eighth-tier Paladin and Celica’s strength shows that even among eighth-tier fighters, there can be a huge difference.

"Hmph!"

Gaitan summoned a battle axe and then threw out five cards.

Seeing this, Karoso casually tossed out a card.

[Name: Sword of Light Sealing]

[Category: Spell]

[Star Level: 8]

[Grade: Purple Epic]

[Occupational Restriction: Spell]

[Description: Seal one enemy equipment for ten minutes (limited to eight stars or below)]

Bang, bang, bang, bang…

Four pieces of black armor were put on Gaitan: a helmet, chest armor, shoulder armor, and leg armor, but there were no arm guards!

Gaitan’s face turned very ugly. What is happening? When did such a disgusting card appear? My equipment has been sealed for ten minutes!

Damn, this is a five-piece set; sealing one piece makes the whole set useless!

"Your Highness, don’t worry, his stats are still not as good as yours!" Andrey shouted, "At least he doesn’t have an Equipment Card; he can’t beat you!"

Andrey was feeling exhausted. Gaitan usually acted so tough, but why was he scared at this crucial moment?

It’s like a person who seems really fierce at first, suddenly becoming afraid when confronted with a strong fighter…
