By the time Kael's consorts were ready for the trial to begin, Memphis had finished a session with Burdo and Wei.
Burdo had asked if he could also participate in it. He was already lagging behind at the moment.
Although, as the first lion prince of the Ol-mytee clan, he had admin-like privileges over the lion system like the other princes.
He had access to a lot of wealth and resources that he could use to enhance his strength and he was doing just that.
Alas, resources could still not make up for time and talent.
So many bad things were happening all at once.
Kael's enemies were showing up from different angles. If he didn't increase his strength and his ability to defend himself, he might die.
He was sure that Kael would not even glance his way to save his life. So he had to look out for himself.
For a while, he had been at the same tier 4 power level.
For any other lion, Burdo would be considered incredibly talented. But for these chaotic times, it wasn't enough at all.
