My Yandere Wives are Transcendents-Chapter 10: Rank
Chapter 10: Rank
Nova then cleared her throat and turned serious "ahem..let's start with 1-9 Star Heart Rank.
After the awakening of the stabilized soul crystal, the soul crystal is attached to the heart like a leach, and after starting to cultivate, the soul crystal started to spread its root on the heart.
How many roots were spread will determine the rank, so only 1-9 roots can be formed and thus resulting in a 1-9 Star Heart Rank, which will be the start of cultivation and the life span will be 200-250 years.
After that comes,
Domain Rank
Monarch Rank
Emperor Rank
each has 3 sub-stages: early, late, perfect and lifespan increase with the stage and rank"
"That's all I can say for now" she said mysteriously.
"How can one increase the rank?" Eli asked without care.
"That is simple, absorb the mana from surrounding or from the soul stone of monsters" she replied.
"I know that already, any other methods?" Eli asked as looked into her eyes.
"If you want to know more, you have to be a student of Nex Academia" She also looked into his eyes and said seriously.
".....Okay, Thank you, Madam Nova" Then he looked at the display.
"Anyway, why are you trying to learn that? You are soulless, right?" she asked with doubt.
"Nothing personal, just want to know more" he still looked at the display.
"Secrets..."
"ah...my number, I have to go now. If I join the Nex, I will treat you to a meal" as he stood and slightly bowed while crossing his two fingers and left without getting any reply.
"...."
There was nothing much she can do, her job is finished so she left the stadium.

At the battle platform, Eli with the trident in his hand, stood infront of a 17-year-old boy with glossy green hair with matching green eyes wearing a black-white shirt and pants, had a straight sword on his hips and that boy introduced himself,
"I am Kayden R, 6-Stark Rank and Hero of Theos Kingdom"
Silence remained few seconds and then the crowd began to shout,
"Shit... it's him, guys. He is the Hero of Theos Kingdom"
"Seriously, I didn't even know"
"That's right, He is from the Duke family, and had trained secretly"
"Who would think another hero will appear in the same era?"
"OMG, look at him. He is so handsome"
"Bitch you even didn't look at him before but now.."
'chatter'
"I am Eli, Soulless, Commoner of Dawn Kingdom"
and just like everyone remained silent. Not to know what could say, 'He should surrender or It will be a one-sided massacre'.
'Breathe in'
/MANA BREATHING/
"Is that so?....Then don't need to worry, you can just surren...."
"Flame Arts: 1st Form"
'sshhh'
Eli ran forward with the burning trident which was about to hit the neck, but Kayden vanished and appeared behind him after meters away.
'zzziii'
"Oii, why are try to kill me, when I..." Again Eli turned and try to hit him but just like before he vanished.
'zzziiii'
'I guess, it is not enough to fight against a 6-star rank' Eli thought and was about to prepare for another attack but a punch hit his stomach and made him fall behind.
"Oii, let me finish the speech. You can just surrender or.....I will make you beg me to kill you" he spoke those last words lightly as he punched Eli's face but was blocked by Eli's trident.
'boom'
Everyone thought Hero was trying to avoid fighting and give the commoner a chance.
Eli falls a few meters behind and stood up while rubbing the blood from his mouth.
"What will be your answer?" Kayden asked arrogantly.
"Terra Arts: 1st Form"
as Eli muttered, his eyes changed heterochromia yellow and green; the sand around the platform started to move and surrounded the trident and sand red due to the high temperature.
"I will take it as NO" Kayden didn't care as appeared before Eli and was about to punch again but his hand cut off before he could realize it, Eli used the trident and slapped his face.
'Boom'
Kayden fell to the ground and Eli was about to slice Kayden's neck but space around the Kayden trembled and
'Boom'
Eli blasted off and he looked at Kayden with squinted eyes.
Everyone remained silent because they don't know what exactly happened but higher rank cultivators clearly saw what happened. Every battle has been recorded for future purposes, so they replayed the scene on a separate big display and they looked at it.
/
Kayden was about punch but Eli who had predicted, just rotated his trident as fast as possible and its sharp teeth were now covered with very thin transparent glass, it cut the hand like butter and without wasting time, Eli used the trident's rod and slapped with the same rotational momentum.
/
Now they knew, instead of awe or surprise they started to belittle him for his cowardness; using weapons against hand combat. Because 'Hero trying to be nice to him but here, he cut Hero's hand. what's the point of comparing and supporting a soulless commoner to the Hero of Theos Kingdom, right?'
"Y-You Bastard" Kayden stood up and looked at the right arm which was sliced neatly. 'If you are in my kingdom, I smashed you into pieces now but here I have to maintain my face' Kayden thought and calmed his anger and stopped his blood flow with some kind of spell and then unsheathed his sword with his left arm.
'ssiiinggg'
"You did well for a soulless commoner" he said sarcastically.
"Shall we start our 2nd round? Before I let you off the hoke because of my mercy but now.....even my single hand is enough for the likes of you" Kayden with a dangerous smile.
Even now most people looked at Kayden with awed and admiration.
