Fifty years ago, rifts appeared in the world. These rifts spewed spirit beasts, ancient artifacts, and fragments of lost civilizations. The human race brought forth Talent Sigils and built guilds and families for survival.

These families include one of the oldest awakened bloodlines, known as "The Long Clan," said to trace its lineage from the dragons of antiquity.

However, rivalries also exist within great clans.

His name is Long Hao, the son of a dwindling lineage family who is ridiculed for being the embarrassment of the clan. It is not impossible for people to believe that he has only mediocre talent because the clan already labels him as the failure who does not deserve the name dragon.

But on the night before the awakening ceremony, there is a prohibited awakening within him.

> [Eclipse System… Activating
[Forbidden Talent Detected. Origin: Dragon-Eclipse Bloodline


It seems that *Heaven’s Law* itself has made

Long Hao wields forbidden talent, a skill feared not only by humans but also by the heavens.

The day that follows, the Awakening Stone has no talent, and the world laughs at him.

But Long Hao just smiled.

When the first dungeon appears out of nowhere in his high school, chaos breaks out. "The trash of the Long Clan" emerges and displays power that shocks the city.
He will overcome his destiny.
Above the guilds.

Above ancient clans. Beyond God's own command. A dragon ought to fly across the nine heavens, and he, named Long Hao, shall smash those who come to get in his way.

A dragon should soar across the nine heavens—
and Long Hao will shatter anyone who dares stand in his path.

For several seconds after the Jade Dragon shattered the prison, the sky went completely silent. Not the quiet of peace, but the quiet of calculation.


The six Executors hovered above the battlefield in perfect formation, their radiant wings stretched outward like vast blades of light cutting through the storm clouds swirling around the dragons. They did not react to the destruction of the cage or to the Jade Dragon's roar. They simply observed, like judges deciding how much force was necessary.


Below, the Eight felt the shift immediately. Han slowly stood up from the cracked rooftop where the last shockwave had thrown him and muttered that he did not like the silence. Nyx kept her gaze fixed on the sky and explained quietly that the Executors were recalibrating. When Han asked what they were recalibrating, her voice dropped slightly as she answered that they were adjusting the level of judgment.
