After everyone gained enough motivation to continue participating in the Combat Training Simulations and reach a perfect grade, Dilan could change his focus once again.
Almost an entire month passed and it looked like Dilan had disappeared. However, he was actually spending most of his time inside the Gate, exploring the vast expanse and killing countless monster hordes.
He increased his strength by absorbing three Essence Crystal of the same type of monster and consistently using the perfect Essence Cultivation technique's highest stage.
Dilan had no idea how high his stats were right now but that was actually of no importance because he could tell that his strength kept increasing.
Once he felt that he couldn't increase his strength anymore and his Essence crystal was filled to the brim, he would attempt to use the Perfect Essence Cultivation technique and a few tricks he had learned in the City of Trials to advance to the fifth Tier without the system's help.
