About two hours later, Max started to notice that the influx of people had stopped and more and more people were starting to leave the gravity chamber as opposed to entering it.

Max had changed two exercises by now, and was now training with the stairs climber machine as he strained his muscles in a more dynamic movement.

Max's mind had long blanked out, pushing out all the distractions out of his mind, as the only thing that he was focused on was taking the next step and making sure he did not fall off the machine.

" COME ON! ". Max heard a loud shout coming from his left, however he did not even turn to look at who was shouting or why, knowing very well that if he lost focus even for a second here, he would miss his rhythm and fall.

Being in rhythm was also a very satisfying yet dangerous feeling, especially when one was on a workout machine as the body constantly kept warning the mind that a single-misstep would lead to disaster as the mind kept growing more and more vigilant.

Max's lungs felt like they were filled with lead, every breath he took was a struggle and a torture, however despite the pain he kept pushing through.

2 hours turned to four and about 50% of the Students that had come to train had left the room by now.

4 turned to eight as Max changed 7 more agility based exercises improving his dynamic movement ability.

In the last two hours, there were only two people left in the room, still sweating, still going on with their workouts as it was Max and Sebastian, who were the only two left in the 5G portion of the chamber, the only two tier 0 individuals still going on with their training.

" Don't lose motivation, keep at it my friend! ". Sebastian shouted at Max, who although heard the voice of a stranger fall into his ears, did not turn to see who it was.

Max already had a grumpy old man shouting in his head for the last eight hours, making him relive the worst moments of his life, as he absolutely did not need another one to give him a push.

" Come on body respond, don't humiliate me in front of my friend here, we can't be the second last to leave this room! ". Sebastian said as he punched his legs hard with his fists as he continued to do frog jumps onto a high platform.

Time went on, and finally a system notification put an end to the gruelling training for the day.

[ Varsity Notification ] - The university grounds will close in 5 minutes. The gravity chamber is now off -limits, all students will be teleported outside in one minute.

It was only when Max heard this notification that he finally let his concentration waiver and hit the ground flat on his back, as he catched his breath.

Finally Max turned to look left, as he saw Sebastian on the floor just like himself, laughing madly as he looked at Max.

" We did it! We did it buddy! We completed day 1, nobody else could survive it, but we did ". He saiax scanned the surroundings to see that it was indeed empty, and that nobody else was there till the very end.

" I am Sebastian by the way, who are you? "

" Ravan " Max replied as the system teleported them outside.

Once outside Max saw that although the two of them were the only ones inside the 5 times gravity zone, there were about 45 other individuals in the gravity chamber that were inside till the end, training inside higher gravity zones.

Instantly Max's pride of completing the training was pushed down a peg, as he understood that he did the absolute lowest level there was to do.

The sudden shift in gravity played with his mind as his simple attempt to get on his feet caused him to leap into the air, however he soon adjusted to it, as he saw Asiva waiting for him near the training zone.

Asiva silently studied Max's condition and understood that it would be a miracle if Max could walk in this state, much less fight, however she was wrong about this assessment.

Max was undoubtedly weakened, and tired however, having switched to his primal instincts for so long, Max was now colder and more attuned to his true nature than ever.

" Let's go " Max said to Asiva, his voice sounding like he was out of breath, however still full of power and vigour.

" Ravan! Wait! ". Sebastian shoutes Max turned to look him in the eye.

" I'll see you tomorrow in the training hall, partner ". Sebastian saif there was a change in Max's facial expression, Sebastian would have no idea as all he could see on Max's face were his cold eyes which gave away nothing.

" Not your partner ". Max said in a cold voice as he walked away with Asiva, leaving Sebastian grinning in the corner.

Asiva noticed that Max was unusually cold on the way back, not uttering a single word as he fought through the monsters in the forest, as if speaking was a criminal wastage of his energy.

His movements became minimal, as he would not even lift his sword until the very end where he used it to slice a monster's head or plunge it into its body.

Max's fighting style improved by leaps and bounds in a single day and Asiva could not fathom how?

What she did not know was that Max had gained +2 in his Agility stat +1 in endurance stat and his stamina bar had expanded by a whole 10 points after a single session.

It was an astronomical gain for a single day's training, and it made one wonder, if Max actually did follow through on the path of the perfect warrior for 9 long months just how much would he improve?
