The Core Heart pulsed brighter, and the chamber transformed. The polished stone floor melted into a grid of luminous panels, each projecting holographic obstacles, floating platforms, and autonomous micro-constructs. Blade stepped forward, boots landing silently on the shifting panels.
> "Everything moves… but nothing is predictable," Blade said and
Streams of silver filaments twisted into complex machines midair—miniature drones, rotating energy cores, and moving gears that defied standard physics. Each device tested his speed, precision, and creativity simultaneously.

Blade's hands blurred, integrating moving parts into coherent systems, anticipating chain reactions before they happened. One misalignment, and a cascade of energy would reset the trial entirely.
Jack and Cyberius watched from the edge, barely able to keep up with the display.
> "He's not building machines… he's orchestrating them like music," Jack said and
> "Metatron bends the Core instead of following it," Cyberius said and
The chamber responded, adapting dynamically to Blade's actions. A holographic wall shifted into multiple layers of energy, and drones reorganized themselves in response to his construction. Every time Blade innovated, the Core pushed him further.
