Shang thought about this dynamic for a bit, but he eventually focused on the trial again.

"I'm ready for the next level," Shang said as he readied his sword.

"You don't need to get ready," the jester said with a smirk.

Shang glanced at the jester.

The jester only continued smirking. "I'll give you two points for this fight since it was so difficult. I'll count this level as levels nine and ten. So, if you want to continue, you will directly enter level eleven."

"Do you want to fight an average Late Commander Stage beast?"

Shang furrowed his brows.

He knew exactly what that entailed.

Sadly, or luckily depending on the viewpoint, there was a rock-paper-scissors principle going on here.

Could an average Late Commander Stage beast win against the Ice King?

Probably not. The Ice King would surely win.

Yet, Shang had won against the Ice King.

So, wouldn't he be able to win against an average Late Commander Stage beast?

Sadly, no.

The only reason Shang won against the Ice King was due to several things unique to him.

The constant presence of the icy storm not only didn't affect Shang, but it even strengthened him.

Additionally, the Domain of Entropy was very useful against Mana-based attacks.

In a way, Shang had perfectly countered the Ice King.

Yet, he wouldn't perfectly counter his next opponent.

The body of his next opponent was so much stronger than Shang's that he probably wouldn't even be able to break through its defenses.

So, while the Ice King could kill an average Late Commander Stage beast, and while Shang could kill the Ice King, Shang couldn't kill an average Late Commander Stage beast.

In a sense, Shang was definitely weaker than the Ice King in terms of total power.

Shang knew that he had lucked out.

In fact, even a weak Late Commander Stage beast might be able to kill Shang.

It entirely depended on what kind of opponent Shang would have received.

But an average one?

No shot.
