About this listen

Matt, Liz, and Aster are now Tier 10.

That means it's time for the Pather tournament. There they will face people who are as strong as them for the first time.

But things are never easy.

With years of Luna's guidance they will have to compete twice. Once as themselves and again under a mask with restrictions meant to ensure they really are the strongest.

Don't miss Book 5 of this action-packed fantasy adventure that blends everything you love about LitRPG with Xianxia.

About the series: This is a mix between LitRPG and Xianxia. It's like a car that looks like a LitRPG with dungeons and skills, but the interior and engine are all Xianxia. It features a magic system and progression system that are logically and internally consistent, as well as realistic fight scenes and a rational MC.

Nice plot on this one with a big focus on one core story. Good time progression towards the end for a solid set up of the next book!

Great

really enjoyed this book. The balance between intense battles and general discussion is brilliant and the characters felt alive.

An epic battle arena story

Was thoroughly disappointed with book 4. Book 5 brought it back, worst part though is that book 4 was this huge training montage and made literally 0 difference here, Good book, don't know why author put a speed bump half way through the series wavering my loyalty to it.

Here's to 6 to bring it home.

Brought it back

I liked the story progression with a few surprises. The next one should be a banger!!

Great progression

Nice twist on the traditional cultivation tournament. If you liked the previous books, you'll probably still enjoy this one too

Narration is pretty good, but I've noticed that Arquin seems to have "run out" of different "voices", especially for the female characters. Not too much of a worry though, as most of the extras only come back for short cameos, if at all.

I absolutely love this series. Definitely in my top 5 in this genre. Book 6 just released on kindle and ku so now the wait for the audio begins again.

Brilliant Again !!

I really enjoyed this book in the series, I actually don't think i can think of any part I didn't like, so thank you keep up the good work and I love the narrator he makes me want to look at other books he has also narrated

Likely one of the best in the series

the author picked one hell of a good voice to tell his story 👏.
the storyline moves on can't wait to see where it goes

Great story

I thought book four was the weakest in the series; I was wrong. The plot revolves around a tournament where the MCs are heavily debuffed and can't go all out; making it boring. Having a melee character like Matt fight with talismans (of all things) couldn't make a fight any more boring.

Characters like Liz and Matt are lost in this story. Other characters come and go with no real purpose or depth. Chapters are drawn out for no reason, and fights are incredibly boring. None of the excitement, character growth, or powers shown in the first couple of books is present here.


Possible spoilers....

What's with all the auctions??? None of the MCs ever have enough money to win anything, so why have them? What's the point of describing the prizes, etc. it's not like it makes any difference to the story whatsoever; the bidding goes so high that it becomes nonsensical, and you wonder how the winners even pay for the items when the currency is points earned by fighting.

The MCs completed so many challenges, and yet they didn't get a single decent piece of loot.

It is all so very disappointing.

Too messy!! Plot all over the place.
