Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam entered the third room and the puppet has two steps higher cultivation level than his, this time he didn't prolong the fight and used the lasers as soon as he entered.

As per the rules, the puppet first tries to use the same element as the candidate and when the puppet tried to make use of light elemental energy, Sam was already gaining the upper hand and when the puppet wasn't able to make use of the elemental energy, there was a light beam that came out of its heart and scanned Sam, then the puppet suddenly threw a fire ball at Sam.

This move stunned him for a second and he almost stopped in his tracks. But he soon came out of his daze and continued pressing on.

Sam made his attack and this time; he didn't use any other element except the laser. And soon he was met with a wind blade.

He understood now, that there are almost all kinds of back up plans for every scenario. He was more and more intrigued from these puppets and he has to make sure that he would get his hands on the secret behind these things.

This is most advanced technology of this era he encountered.

And he is not going to leave it.

This might even be the most important and valuable reward he could get in the tower.

After five more minutes, Sam finished the battle and came out, but this time he has something else in his storage and that is an arm of the puppet.

This is a test.

A test to see if his conjecture is correct or not, whether he is allowed to take the parts of the puppet out or not and it seems it is not impossible.

He was ecstatic as he was about to make his way towards the fourth room, but this time, he was blocked again and when he looked at the person, he wasn't surprised. It was Arthur.

"How dare you, make a move on thunder god temple disciples?" He asked in a cold tone. Sam didn't bother to answer him and was about to walk around, but he was blocked again as Arthur extended his hand.

Sam made his move and held the arm with his and started twisting it, and within no time, Sam held Arthur's arm as he made the latter kneel forward as continued twisting.

He used his full strength after all, Arthur is not an average opponent and he is also a Level Great realm cultivator.

But with Sam's enormous spiritual energy combined with his physical body refinement, he could rival that person.

Arthur struggled hard, but since Sam had an advantage with his initiative, he took out the reaper and placed it on the throat.

"I have very little patience for the likes of you, next time you make a move, be prepared to engage in a death duel, because I won't stop until you die or I die."

Sam's voice was as cold as ice and he didn't even bat an eyelid as he threatened him with death.

He is really bored and pissed at the condescending and unreasonable arrogant and stupid people he has met in this world.

He was once at the top of the world, who could be treated as an equal by any person on the top of the food chain, from that he learnt one thing, a guy who talks so much about his superiority due to some stupid and superficial reasons like birth, race, colour, creed and inheritance he obtained without any effort including money, power and authority. These guys are nothing but a waste of space.

They wouldn't have enough capability to get what they want and they don't know how to be content with what they have, they are like goats, they will never have enough food.

They will never have enough respect, enough wealth, enough superiority. If not for the fact that he has to leave this place safely after this palace thing is over and he doesn't have means to confront the thunder god temple at this instant without any preparations, Sam would have killed them right there and then.

But that doesn't mean, he will let them be, he can always think of the consequences later if push comes to shove.

All he has to do is to make the evidence disappear.

He took his sword back and left the place. He entered the fourth room.

In the fourth room, things got serious. The power gap is huge and Sam only has one advantage against the puppets and that is the energy cells and his quick recovery of the energy.

Since, he understood the difficulty, he took his time and the fight went on for half a day. He finally, defeated the fourth room's puppet after half a day.

After that, the much awaited fifth room was the only thing left for him. This room is his destination from the start and all the four rooms are used for his analysis of the puppets. He understood some things about these puppets.

They are like programmed robots, every link is made of simple elements combined into a complex mechanism.

They have all types of combinations recorded and programmed into them and they only use the same elements as the opponent.

A part from that, the puppets wouldn't react like lifeless objects, they would react just like a human opponent for things like choke hold, head shots and attacks to heart. Even if there are no vitals there, the system is analyzing the degree of damage and is deciding who the winner is exactly.

Sam was quite impressed by this. As Sam is preparing for the fifth room, Arthur is taking his anger on puppet in the third room.

During his confrontation with Sam, he felt like he was being eyed by a predator and it left him stay put by instinct. His body and mind came together only after Sam left the place and these actions made him hate himself.

"How dare a simple peasant from an empire do this to me? How dare he threaten me? I am going to kill him. I will kill him as soon as he exits the palace." He yelled as he traded blows with the puppet.

He cleared the first two rooms without much difficulty but the third room which has a stronger wooden puppet is giving him an extremely hard time, but he didn't back down, he started trading blows causing him mutual damage.

But he didn't care, all he needed was a way to vent his frustrations for now otherwise he would lag behind in the palace of inheritances.

Meanwhile, Sam entered the fifth room and already met his first defeat.

That is right, he was defeated and thrown out, but he didn't loose his calm. He slowly stood up and moved aside as he sat cross-legged and started thinking.

He never thought of winning this stage in the first attempt.

An opponent who is four steps stronger than oneself, it is not that easy to defeat him and particularly when other party uses same elements as you do.

Sam managed to handle around five minutes but he wasn't able to do much more due to the overwhelming difference in the power.

His only advantage till now is the laser which the puppet wouldn't be able to use, but due to the power difference the laser is barely doing any damage.

Sam started analyzing things and he kept on going through all the things that happened in his mind. He didn't want to just use the energy cell and be done with it.

He need the weird glowing object which is at the heart of the puppet no matter what. If he blew up the whole thing, he would be declared winner and he wouldn't be able to get his hands on it.

He kept on thinking what are the advantage he has in his possession against the puppet and after some thinking, a word popped up.

Engineering.

He is better at understanding those mechanisms in that puppet than the puppet itself. He abruptly opened his eyes at the new gates that opened in his mind.

That is right, the wood might be stronger and equivalent to the body of a Seventh level Great realm warrior's body, but it is still made of various mechanisms combined and guarded under that wooden shell.

Sam has some new ideas in his mind and he wants to test them. But he cannot do so in the fifth room directly as he would be defeated before he could get any results which can be examined, so he went towards the first room again.

This time, the people who are standing before the room gave way to him and even the person who came out just now, didn't make a fuss.

Sam entered the room calmly and after a few minutes, he came out with a bright smile on his face with his eyes closed.

Right now, his perception is inside the storage space, where he stored what he obtained in the first room.

With the same zeal and enthusiasm, Sam went towards the next room.
