The solo warrior's show

As Adonis entered the Illusion platform, everything went black then suddenly he arrived at a strange desolate place.

The sky in the illusionary dreamland burned a deep, rusted orange, casting long shadows across the blood-soaked ground. A thousand bones crunched under Adonis's boots as he strode into the heart of this Shura Battlefield, the very air thick with the stench of death and steel.

Then, like a plague, the undead came.

The horrifying screams and wails, the rotten stench of blood and flesh, and gruesome figures appeared before his eyes, along along with skeleton soldiers. 

Skeletons, dozens at first, sprinted toward him with hollow cries, empty sockets glowing red with bloodlust, rotting flesh is sticked to their bones. But Adonis didn't flinch he seen the undead before in Darknot Village. Instead,

His eyes shone brilliant gold.

Cling—!

Twenty golden swords emerged, orbiting him in a glowing wheel of death. They spun faster, a divine circle of slaughter.

Adonis dashed forward—The circle spun—

The swords forming a golden wheel of deathAnd skeletons cried as they exploded into clouds of bone dust and shrapnel as the Killing Golden Circle tore through them like a meat grinder.

"Heh… finally, I can test killing potential of my sword element," Adonis muttered, his smirk widening. With a flick of his hand, his swords compressed, merging into a massive greatsword. In one fluid motion, he cleaved through rows of skeletons like wheat.

Then, his foot stomped the earth—"Sword Domain."

Golden runes exploded across the battlefield in a widening ring. The ground beneath him cracked and glowed, and with a single word, Adonis brought hell from the heavens:

"Arise."

BOOM!

Dozens of golden swords erupted from the ground, rotating like drills, sweeping through the undead like a sacred massacre. They rose and sliced, rose and sliced—turning enemies into shattered echoes.

This is also the trick he learned in Darknot Village from Rabisu, apparently he used his undead element similarly, to summon undead in large scale, Adonis named it his sword domain.

But the dream didn't end.

Suddenly, the earth trembled.

From the smoky orange fog, giant armored skeletons emerged. Each stood over three meters tall, wielding massive weapons—axes, maces, spears—fully plated in charred black iron. Their empty sockets stared into Adonis's soul, mocking his arrogance.

He responded with a smile.

"Oh? So its time of big guns?"

The circle of swords reactivated, stricking the skeletons but unfortunately using a big circle means less offensive power, but short circle means killing less enemies.

But since the golden ring couldn't pierce their heavy armor like before. The giants weathered the strikes, groaning forward.

"Fine," Adonis whispered. "We'll do this... the traditional way."

The golden glow in his eyes grow brighter as his right hand summoned a golden longsword, grabbing it he adjusted his fluttering black-and-white Eclipse robe, and in that still moment, everything froze—

Then

BOOM!

Adonis launched like a bolt of lightning.

Twin broadswords spun behind him like guardians, deflecting attacks from behind. He cut through the first giant's neck, then kicked its crumbling head into another one's chest, throwing it off-balance.

He didn't stop.

Slash—Spin—Kick—Stab—Every swing was art. Every movement a dance.

Skeleton after skeleton fell, their bodies shattering under the weight of pure sword qi.

Adonis roared as he plunged into the center of the giants, activating his Sword Domain again. This time, even more swords rose from the glowing ground, their sharp edges screaming vengeance.

The battlefield became a golden storm.

To the invigilators watching outside, his dream-world screen showed only endless slashes of golden light carving through enemy after enemy.

One instructor murmured, wide-eyed, "Is he enjoying it?."

Another whispered, "That… That isn't a test anymore. That's a one-man show"

And Adonis?He smiled, as if this illusion wasn't a challenge—

—but a stage built just for him.

The solo warrior's golden massacre had only just begun.
