Breaking Limits

The dawn embraces Kai, prompting him to rise from his bed.

With a stretch and a determined murmur, he declares, "Alright then, let's continue with the tasks now."

Exiting his room, Kai encounters the familiar sight of his mother ardently cleaning the house.

A cheerful "Good morning!" is exchanged, followed by a warm embrace with his father. The familial interactions set a positive tone for the day.

As Kai prepares to leave for school, quick goodbyes are shared with his parents.

On his journey, the day unfolds in the usual manner—casual greetings with friends, engaging conversations, and attentive participation in class.

The time comes for Kai and his friends to head to the Combat Department.

Excitement buzzes as they make their way, dispersing to their respective Training Rooms upon arrival.

In his Training Room, Kai settles in, focusing on the task of gathering Spiritual Energy.

An hour into his practice, a notification disrupts the serene concentration.

[Your Spiritual Energy has reached 400]

[You have reached the maximum limit possible for your realm]

[It is possible to breakthrough to the next level]

[Would you like to Breakthrough to the next level]

[Yes/No]

A surge of elation fills Kai as he contemplates the prospect of reaching the Novice Rank Upper Level.

Reflecting on the requirement disparity with his friends, he thinks, "Really, it's just because of the requirements of my Spiritual Energy to reach a threshold.

I had to gather 400 Spiritual Energy to break through and reach the same realm."

Opting to break through, Kai's determination echoes in his response.

A rapid sequence of events follows, leading to his breakthrough.

A confirmation message from the system glows in front of him.

[You have broken through to Novice Rank Middle Level]

Eager to witness the change, Kai summons his Status Window.
