Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Orion raised his fist. There was almost no star power left in him, so he gathered every last trace of it into a single point.

”Nine Star Sovereign Body, Last Star Fist.”

The fist struck Aurelian’s chest, and this time Aurelian’s remaining dominion broke. The burning crown behind him shattered, the Crownless Divine King state collapsed completely, and the Heavenly Luminance Divine Dominion scattered into broken golden-white fragments.

Aurelian flew backward and crashed into the ground, carving a long trench across the stage before coming to rest near the edge.

Orion landed on one knee. His right arm trembled, and blood dripped from his chin. His aura flickered so weakly that many spectators wondered whether he would faint before the announcement could even arrive.

Aurelian tried to stand. His hand pressed against the cracked ground, and golden-white light flickered around him, but it shattered almost instantly.

He forced one knee beneath himself, only for his body to tremble and drop back down. His eyes were filled with humiliation, rage, and disbelief.

He had lost again. This time it had not been to Damian’s sword, and it had not been to Max’s strange immunity and hidden bloodline truth.

He had lost to Orion Starfall, a wounded opponent who had already been drained by earlier battles and still refused to fall until the very end.

Angelina Valerius looked down at the stage. ”Aurelian Lareth is unable to continue.”

The screen above the arena changed.

[Winner: Orion Starfall.]

[Aurelian Lareth Defeated.]

For a moment, the Divine Realm was silent. Then the Nine Star Court erupted. Their disciples shouted so loudly that even the viewing formations trembled, and the elders who had been tense throughout the battle finally released long breaths.

Orion had not won cleanly, and he had not won easily. He had won while wounded, exhausted, bleeding, and nearly collapsing under the burden of his own technique. But he had won.

The screen updated.

On the stage, Orion slowly pushed himself up. He swayed once, then steadied himself with a laugh.

”That was... harder than I wanted.”

Rakan Thorne burst into laughter from his pillar. ”You look half-dead.”

Orion turned his head slightly and smiled weakly. ”Only half. That means I can still brag.”

Even Damian Voss’s eyes softened slightly as he looked at Orion. Revona watched in silence, though there was respect in her gaze. Ervin studied Orion a moment longer than usual as well.

He had defeated Orion before, but after witnessing this battle, he understood even more clearly that Orion Starfall’s greatest strength was not only his Nine Star Sovereign Body or his Starfall Extinction. It was the simple fact that he never truly stopped fighting.

Max stood on his pillar and looked at Orion with a faint smile.

Aurelian, by contrast, was carried back to his pillar by the transfer light in silence. The Divine Son’s face was pale and his aura unstable, and for the third time in this final stage, his pride had been broken in front of the entire Divine Realm.

The final competitive stage continued, but after this battle everyone understood one thing clearly. Orion Starfall might have lost before, and he might have been wounded and exhausted, yet as long as a single star inside him still burned, he remained dangerous enough to defeat even the Divine Son.

After Orion defeated Aurelian, the entire final competitive stage seemed to settle into a strange silence. It was not the silence of boredom. It was the silence that followed too many shocking results overturning expectation after expectation.

The Divine Son of the second elven faction had now suffered yet another defeat. Damian Voss had cut through his Heavenly Luminance Divine Dominion. Max Morgan had made his light-based attacks look meaningless.

Now Orion Starfall, wounded and exhausted from his previous battles, had still forced his way through the full pressure of the Divine Son’s dominion and won through sheer refusal to fall.

Aurelian returned to his pillar in silence. His pale golden hair hung slightly across his face, and the golden-white radiance around his body flickered weakly as the laws of the Eternal Hourglass healed his injuries.

Yet no law could mend the damage done to his pride. His expression stayed cold, but that coldness had turned brittle. It no longer felt like the calm arrogance of a Divine Son who believed the world should kneel. It felt like the frozen surface of a lake concealing cracks beneath.

Orion, on the other hand, returned to his pillar and sat down at once with a tired laugh. His aura was unstable, his breathing was heavy, and several traces of golden-white light still clung to the wounds across his body.

Even so, his smile stayed bright. The Nine Star Court disciples across the Divine Realm were still cheering, and many who had watched him lose twice before now regarded him with renewed respect.

Orion Starfall had proven that his earlier defeats had never been proof of weakness. He had simply been fighting monsters from the very beginning.

Rakan Thorne looked at him from a nearby pillar and laughed loudly. ”You really do not know when to stay down.”

Orion leaned back slightly and waved a weak hand. ”It was a fun battle.”

Morgana Starveil smiled faintly. ”You say that after kneeling on it for half the battle?”

Orion glanced at her and sighed. ”Witches should be more merciful to injured men.”

Morgana’s smile deepened. ”Injured men should stop pretending they are heroic when they are half-dead.”

Even a few tense participants could not help reacting to that exchange, but the light atmosphere lasted only a moment.

Everyone knew the final stage had not ended. The strongest names still had to finish their remaining battles, and some of the most important pairings had yet to appear. Max Morgan, Damian Voss, Revona, Ervin, and Kaiden Voidmere all still hung over the arena like mountains.

Angelina Valerius waited for the stage to finish restoring itself. The cracks left by Orion’s Last Star Fist closed, the burned marks from Aurelian’s Heavenly Luminance Divine Dominion faded, and the final traces of star essence dissolved into the golden laws of the Eternal Hourglass. Then she raised her hand again.

”The next battle will now be selected.”

The giant screen above the arena began to spin, and the atmosphere tightened immediately. Names flashed across the screen, among them Max Morgan, Damian Voss, Revona, Kaiden Voidmere, Ervin, Rakan Thorne, Orion Starfall, Morgana Starveil, Rosaline Lunara, Selene Vaeloria, and Aurelian Lareth.

Each passing name carried its own weight, but by now the audience had grown especially sensitive to the top-tier pairings. Whenever the names of two monsters appeared close together, the whole Divine Realm held its breath.

The first name slowed, and then it stopped.
