Aiden Vhorn actually managed to clear the seventh floor on his first try?
He actually beat the avatar of the grand marshal with his first attempt and he did it in 2 hours.
How terrifying was this guy?
Currently, Candice, Luke, Demonda, Seraphina and Asmodeus had even arrived in the lounge.
They did not even know how to describe how to feel at the moment.
Wilmora had gone numb too.
She sighed in defeat and left the place.
Contrary to what she had expected, Aiden Vhorn had crushed her pride.
Was this guy really a first year student who really became a warrior a month and some weeks ago?
Everyone else was equally shocked.
From staff to students.
This commotion had drawn the attention of a lot of people.
Prior to clearing the seventh floor, a lot of staff members were not really paying much attention to Aiden challenging the gravity towers.
But now, things are absolutely different.
He had broken the record of Grand Marshal Armstrong Lee. This was not a small achievement.
Perhaps, no one would be able to break Aiden Vhorn’s record in a long time to come.
This news would definitely reach the Principal and Vice Principal when they returned to campus.
Also, apart from the top 10 on the Heavenly Ascension ranking list who were out of campus for a special mission, the rest on the top 100 on the Heavenly Ascension ranking list, who were within beginner rank 2 and advanced rank 2 warrior level, had to admit that it was only a matter of time that Aiden Vhorn overtook them if nothing happened to him, considering his rate of improvement.
Naturally, they were wise enough to not try to attack him. They rather decided to invite him into their societies politely. If he rejected their offers, they would amicably stay away from him.
Offending someone with such potential could come back to bite them. So what if the university was a place where everyone competed for resources? If they went around offending every warrior with serious potential just because of university resources, they would not be alive today. It was better to either try to befriend a future powerhouse or stay out of their business.
Also, Aiden Vhorn was unpredictable and dangerous. He was very tactical and scheming. Those who paid close attention to how he did things had realized how he meticulously bought time for himself from Hourglass and Treehill by entering a pocket world. He returned as an advanced rank 1 warrior when he was strong enough to take them on and killed them. But before that, he actually weakened their societies by killing their key members.
How he had also used tactics to get rid of those creatures in the special pocket world went a long way to reveal how much he thought several steps ahead.
Aiden Vhorn seemed normal on a regular day. But he was always plotting the deaths of those who posed a threat to him.
One would never know what he was thinking.
The bastard was always calm and polite. But he was nothing like he looked on the surface.
Someone like that was not worth offending.
The rest of the societies on campus also felt the same way.
Currently, the guy was ranked 700 on the Heavenly Ascension ranking list.
He was the only first year student ranked that high on the Heavenly Ascension ranking list.
He had not even taken on seven missions since he arrived on campus. He had not even spent two months on campus.
Instead he had effortlessly broken several records of the gravity tower of the second floor of a training hall, to the point where he even broke the record of a grand Marshal.
What sort of freak will this guy turn into in a year?

Aiden Vhorn arrived on the 8th floor.
On the 8th floor, he had to defeat three advanced rank 1 avatars of the grand marshal.
He was killed the first time.
When he respawned, he did it effortlessly on his second try in 35 minutes.
On the ninth floor, he had to defeat four advanced rank 1 avatars of the grand marshal under x40 gravity.
He did it effortlessly on his second try in 40 minutes.
On the tenth floor, he had to defeat five advanced rank 1 avatars of the grand marshal under x 42 gravity. He did it in 45 minutes on his third try.
All these were clear records he set on the 8th, 9th and 10th floors, earning him enough contribution points to push him to rank 400 on the Heavenly Ascension Ranking list!!!!
This achievement further cemented the decisions of the societies on how to approach him.

Frontlines.
In a fortress.
A middle aged tall man with a masculine face was seated in a large living room. He had chestnut hair. His eyes were dark and calm. Yet they had a wild nature to it.
He was clad in a t- shirt and shorts.
This man was grand marshal Armstrong Lee. One of the most powerful people on Endra, and the most powerful person in the Eldorath Empire.
Suddenly, his phone buzzed with a notification.
Grand Marshal Armstrong Lee, looked at it and smiled.
" I can’t believe someone beat my records and defeated my avatars.
Aiden Vhorn huh. What an interesting young man. I hope he doesn’t die. If he survives long enough, he will definitely become a legendary rank 4 warrior"
Armstrong put his phone on the couch and continued watching his television.

"It’s just like you said babe. He actually did it," Cosmo said.
" Mmm. This kid is a monster," Pamela said.
" Enough of this, it’s cold. Don’t you think you should compensate me?" Cosmo said with a naughty smile.
"Men will always be men... well, follow me.." Pamela replied naughtily, dragging him out of the living room towards the bedroom.
" Yes ma’am." Instead of following her, Cosmo carried her and blurred out of the living room.
