Info Chapter 4: The Zenith & Beyond it
---
After reaching Transcendence, a fighter enters a stage where growth becomes painfully slow. Unlike before, their body no longer evolves quickly—muscles stop developing, bones grow weaker or remain the same. At this point, the only way forward is by refining their Trait to its absolute peak.
When a transcendent nears the end of their prime life, they face the final wall of existence: the Zenith. This stage represents the ultimate culmination of power and essence. Only two individuals in history have been officially recognized as reaching it, and one more is said to have done so unofficially.
The Zenith cannot be surpassed by ordinary means. The human body simply cannot withstand a level beyond it—any attempt to forcefully transcend results in collapse. However, there are two exceptions:
1. If the body does not age, preserving its vitality.
2. If someone reaches the Zenith during their youth, while their body is still capable of natural growth.
In every other case, Zenith is the absolute end of the road...for normal ones...

•WHAT IFS•
Ques: What if a fighter reaches the Zenith at a young age , where his body is at its peak health?
Ans: Reaching the Zenith at a young age is almost impossible but , if a fighter reaches this stage at a young age , there is an answer to this. It goes like....

The Zenith
It is the absolute wall of human potential.
Most reach it in middle age (40–45), when their body is hardened but no longer growing.
They are powerful, respected, but essentially capped.
But this is not the end, there is a stage after the Zenith, which can be reached if a fighter reaches the stage at a young age. It is known as....

Supreme Lord of the Zenith (aka True Zenith)
Anyone who reaches the Zenith before age 25.
They're the rarest beings in existence (1 in 10–15 billion).
Unlike regular Zeniths, their body is still in prime growth. This means their Zenith isn't fixed — it evolves, making them vastly stronger than those who hit Zenith later in life.
Called "True Zenith" because they represent the real, unshackled form of Zenith, not a capped or diminished version.
In 500 years of PTJ Universe history, only one person ever achieved this state.
•Exeption•
Well, there is an exception for reaching The Zenith or the True Zenith (or The Supreme Lord of Zenith).
As they reach the stage at a young age, it doesn't mean that they reached it though training only , many had tried to reach this stage using Scientific Methods, Drugs , Experiments etc. But they can't reach the Zenith or The True Zenith just like that.
Conducting experiments to reach the Last Stage of Human Evolution has been done for decades per say. But sadly, none of the experiment on a Regular Human has been a success. The Scientists hence, theorized that reaching the Zenith from scientific Methods I'd doomed to be impossible.
But there is was a scientist in the past who thought it was all lie, Human's Last Stage of Evolution is possible, It only needs a good 'Subject' of the Experiment to be possible.

"You know, sometimes the teachers aren't actually bad at teaching, sometimes the students are not good at studying. Why don't we change the perspective of our thoughts. Why don't the students change , why don't they become 'Perfect'."
The man said, looking straight out of the window, then he looked at Yuujin and said,
"I want you be become the perfect student of mine. So, tell me your name boy...", his eyes were squinted, his emotions were unreadable.
Yuujin looked at the man for few moments, then pointed his finger towards him,
"Shouldn't you introduce yourself first, it is a common courtesy in Korea."
The man was surprised a little, but the soon smiled hard, his face was stretch into a wire. The man's eyes squinted. The he said ,
"Hehe, I like you. My name is...."
"Ryo Jin"

Author Note: Hello, This is Kushagra Yhom, The Author, and I am here to say few things.
I would like to call this whole Power Stage with a name.
Zen'sei.
And I call awakening of Traits as Traitogenesis.

Traitogenesis & Zen'sei — The Path of Human Evolution
•
⟨Traitogenesis⟩
Etymology: From "Trait" (innate ability) + "Genesis" (origin, birth).
Meaning: "The Birth of Traits."
Refers to the awakening and evolution of a person's unique Trait. Every individual has the potential for Traitogenesis, but the extent of growth depends on talent, training, and fate.
•
⟨Zen'sei (全生)⟩
Etymology: From Japanese roots: "Zen" (complete, ultimate) + "Sei" (life, existence, becoming).
Meaning: "The Complete Existence" or "The Perfect Evolution."
Zen'sei represents the final, perfected stage of Traitogenesis — the absolute peak of human evolution.
Extremely rare: only 3 in 8 billion humans reach Zen'sei, while those achieving it before 25 are revered as Supreme Lords of the Zenith.
Relationship Between the Two
Traitogenesis is the path.
Zen'sei is the destination.
Together, they form the Zen'sei Traitogenesis System, the ultimate framework of human growth where body, mind, and ability converge into perfection.
