At this point, Ace was already approaching the middle stages of Rank 2.
This speed was absurdly fast.
Of course, after Michael's blood had fundamentally transformed Ace's body beforehand, combined with resources like spirit crystals obtained from the academy being poured into him afterward, such growth no longer seemed entirely impossible.
Still, it remained terrifyingly fast regardless.
At the very least, within the cultivation world Li Yang originated from, Ace would absolutely be viewed as a monstrous genius capable of shocking countless sects and clans.
And unlike ordinary supernaturals of the same rank, Ace was a cultivator.
This profession naturally made him significantly stronger than what his realm alone suggested.
Although he still might not be capable of defeating peak Rank 2 opponents directly in battle, escaping safely from them would not be difficult at all.
Most importantly…
Both Ace and Lyra currently housed fragments of Michael's consciousness as well.
