5 and 6

Entering the fifth floor it is an arena like place filled with crowds and hundreds of people going all over and as I stand there the system announcement comes.

---You are in the inter-planetary coliseum where you need to defeat ten randomly assigned opponents in a row to progress forward, others are allowed to view your matches, and you may do the same to them if you can do it on the first attempt 1000 tower coins are rewarded, death here can be reversed with 100 tower coins---

Looking at the task it is a purely strength-based test though some intelligence is needed for those that see your abilities and counter you as long as you are powerful enough this will be a quick and easy pass for those like us who have so many abilities it is impossible to counter and with my high strength it might just be the easiest task given yet.

I walk towards the entrance to a stadium where the fights are held and entered not even bothering to study the others as unless Wyatt is the opponent chosen there is little chance of others knowing how to counter me.

The first person is a high standing person from some random planet that ranks around A-rank which is good over all but is not nearly enough to even challenge me as he is not even able to see how I kill him due to my speed and control, he is dead within 30 seconds without me even to show my tricks or abilities.

Next was a woman in military clothes with a sword by her waist, she lasts as long as the other as she also can't keep up with me.

The next is an elf like person with white hair and blue eyes who upon seeing me seems shocked as my looks are even better than his own despite their species being one of the best looking among the current E grade planets, but he is an S-grade and the child of the king and planet protector along with his wind element enhancing his speed he can barely track and block me but only buys him time as my attacks are powerful and harsh leaving him beat in under a minute though lasting until the 40 second mark instead of 30 second mark like the others.

One by one people fall who even at SS-grade are beat within a minute leaving those watching my matches in awe as they most likely assume me to be a physical energy person.

Soon the 8th person came, and they immediately let out large amount of fog covering the arena but doing little else as I tracked them using my hearing I have him beat even faster than the rest n 20 seconds and once he is down the arena cleared of fog.

People see me unharmed, and my opponent gone making it clear who won that round.

Soon the tenth opponent came and went with ease making it so that my ten-person streak was met with ease, I am allowed to advance or can continue to challenge and increase my winning streak.

A 100 winning streak should be good enough and so I continue cutting people down one after another and more people watch the matches, and a few try and use tricks that they think will make me stumble like growing vines to trip me or freezing the ground, but my body control and situational awareness leaves them down in even faster times than others.

The only one to trip me slightly was a person with an extreme exoskeleton who took around 5 minutes to kill due to having to chip away at one location to break through but overall, most went down in under a minute.

Soon my 100 streak was set and I left exiting the tower to report to the superiors on what the 5th floor was.

Each floor was clearly meant to test one's different aspects like the tutorial was training for those that weren't up to standard yet, while floor one tested your ability to work together and build.

Second floor was built on alliances and seeing your moral code.

Floor three was about putting you in the shoes of either the attacker or defender of another world invasion making you get experience either in defense or attacking while also testing your ability to adapt to unexpected circumstances.

Floor four varied from one to another as to see whether you can make up for what the tower views as one's weak point my own being me originating from another land but still aiding and defending what I deem home and with Wyatt it is being in the lower and weaker position and forcing him to start from near scratch to see if given nothing he can still stand as tall.

Finally, the fifth-floor tests one's combat capabilities whether that be the ability to use information gathered or simply being so strong no one else can touch you even with that information, well it is meant for one to diversify their abilities but for those like me it was simply a hassle.

Now with the fifth floor cleared in under a day's time the higher ups speak of going to the next floor after a night's rest as clearly this was not enough of a challenge for us to have much of a break.

We enter the seventh floor, and it is a cavern filled with thousands with many different minerals and objects all over the place.

---Your task is to either make a weapon that helps someone win a challenge or win the challenge through using an item made by another, this item must play a good enough role to apply for this both in the challenger and craftsmen---

This was a test for those so powerful almost no item could help to see if they can be inventive in item use or to see of those who are weak are given powerful items can make proper use to make up for their deficient, though another aspect is choosing the right item and person to succeed.

I already know that the gun I designed is good enough and with a decently weak person this will be a quick and easy floor, so I look in on the challenges and see one that is to break a nearly indestructible shield and immediately wait for anyone I know to come.

I wait nearly a day before I see the familiar face of Ruki Munkar the newest addition to Wyatts team and added on to us for the climbing of the tower, we haven't spoken outside of basic strategy talks as most the time we cover vastly different fields leaving little overlap but now it is clear this is the best time for us to team up.

I walk up and explain my idea and immediately she takes the gun I give her and walks into the challenge rink; I hear whispers as apparently it is rare for anyone to even think of this one as it is as tough as most planets ship shield, but a single shot and a hole is made.

Whispers stop and then talk picks up as many question what weapon could do such a thing and where she got it, so on and forth but we pay little mind as we both choose to advance now that it is over. 

Appearing so quickly once more he people around seem to realize this floor was even faster than the last one as the sixth floor gave me no trouble thanks to the weapon designed so long ago being a near perfect match to the challenge on the sixth floor, when they learn of this they sigh but realize few can pass as quickly as me as only a few can even make the gun.

So, we wait Wyatt and them to return, and it takes a few hours until they do as apparently, they weren't as lucky as us and needed a few tries to figure out the best course of action.

With this the first six floors are now cleared.

They were given a three-day break to calm down from the floor jumping and readjust to the current rhythm as going to fast could mess with us in the next floor.

Laying in my room I hear the knock from Wyatt and let him in, we return to my bed were we simply lay together settling down from our constant going for the past two floors.

Soon the three-day period passed with them simply enjoying time together and him talking with Lucien and Nilan on the current political situation as the time for the protection period to end could be over by the time we return from this floor, and they assure me everything is ready in case defense is needed.

So, we get in the vehicle and go to the tower once more ready for floor 7.
