Growing up with eccentric materialistic parents who left him in the care of his grandfather for a job overseas, Zhang Heng had learned to adapt and be unfettered by the oddities and challenges in life. But he would soon learn the baffling truth about the world he thought he knew when one day at midnight time froze and he found himself in a world so quiet and still it was deafening. That night, he discovered that he had 24 hours more than everybody else and thus, marked the beginning of his adventures. The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf. Little did Zhang Heng know that accepting those terms meant embroiling himself in many versions of reality and exposing himself to the hidden secrets of the world—a decision he could never undo.

Gaby's roll call was still going on, and most gladiator candidates were assigned with the type of gladiator they were going to become.

Some people were happy with the outcome, and some were displeased.

After all, the goal of the gladiator school was to provide wonderful performances to the audience. Thus, consideration had to be taken on the current number of each type of gladiator they had. Due to this, some of them were assigned to the category that they did not like.

Gaby told them that if they passed the assessment to become an official gladiator and survived five performances, they could ask for a change if they still did not like the field in which they were allocated. At the same time, Gaby also warned some of them to do their best and never slack off. Otherwise, they might just not live to the day they were allowed to change professions.

"Zhang Heng." Gaby finally called out Zhang Heng's name, "Dimachaerus."
