1528 1528. Preparations

Noah took a while to recover. He had pushed his battle prowess too much in the last battle, so his centers of power required years to disperse the drawbacks and the stress.

Still, once the process was over, Noah found that his cultivation level had improved. Part of the empowerment had become permanent. His achievement had turned a slight amount of his fake power into his actual foundation.

Needless to say, Noah had no idea why that happened. His ambition seemed to have its own will. He could only guess that his opponent's might had triggered the same ability showed against Lady Lena.

'I wonder if I have to do something similar to reach the eighth rank,' Noah thought in the silence of his cave.

Noah quickly suppressed those thoughts to focus on more important things. He had to spend some time training to avoid stagnating, and he also had to plan a mental battle.
