Dimension System: SSS Rank Talent Awakening

---

The dawn of a new day broke over Astral Heaven Academy, its towering spires bathed in the soft golden light of the morning sun. Your next read awaits at empire

The air buzzed with excitement and anticipation as the new students prepared to begin their first day at the prestigious academy.

Dabi stood in front of his siblings' room, gazing at the skyline as he mentally prepared for what lay ahead.

Today was the day the new recruits would be formally welcomed into the academy and begin their orientation.

The academy grounds were filled with the hustle and bustle of students, old and new, each navigating their way through the cobblestone paths.

Dabi straightened his jacket, checked his books and gear, and set out for the academy. Today's events were important, not just for the new students but for the senior students as well.

The start of a new year brought with it a mix of training, tournaments, and challenges that would shape the future of everyone attending Astral Heaven.

As Dabi walked through the gates of the academy, his eyes drifted to the grand central building, where the headmaster's office was located.

Headmaster Raghnall Ferrin wasn't present today, having left the previous evening for urgent matters.

Dabi had his suspicions as to what the headmaster might be up to.

"The Heart of Eternity," Dabi thought. He had sold to the headmaster heart of eternity. After gaining access to the ancient relic, an artifact said to hold immense power, capable of altering the course of any injury.

Dabi knew that whatever Ferrin was healing his injury, it was significant and likely tied to the academy's future. But for now, his focus was elsewhere.

The courtyard of the academy was bustling with students. Fresh faces were scattered around, some nervous, others brimming with excitement.

The vice- headmaster, a stern but respected figure named Elara Vain, stood on the academy's central platform, preparing to address the new recruits.

Dabi made his way across the courtyard and soon spotted Zen standing under a large oak tree. Zen, ever the calm and collected one, leaned against the tree with his arms crossed, surveying the scene with a slight smile.

Dabi approached him, and they shared a brief nod of greeting. Before either could speak, a familiar voice rang out from behind them.

"(Zen!) Big brother!"

Dabi and Zen turned around to see Jeni rushing toward them. She was one of the new students who had recently joined the academy, and it seemed she had something urgent on her mind. Jeni came to a stop in front of them, slightly out of breath.

Her cheeks were flushed, not just from the run but from another cause altogether. As her eyes met Dabi's, her blush deepened, and she gave a shy smile.

"Hello, Dabi," Jeni said softly, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

Dabi nodded back, offering her a polite smile, though he was always a bit awkward in such situations(means taking to girls).

Jeni shifted her gaze to her brother, Zen, with a more serious expression. "I have something I need to ask you, Zen," she said, though her eyes occasionally darted toward Dabi.

Zen raised an eyebrow but nodded for her to continue. "I... I need help choosing my major. I'm not sure which path to take."

Dabi, sensing her unease, decided to chime in. "It's important to choose a major that aligns with your strengths and what you enjoy," he advised. "If you're strong in ice magic, you could go for Elemental Manipulation.

If you prefer something more tactical, Research or Strategic Combat might be a good fit."

Jeni nodded thoughtfully, her eyes lighting up as she considered Dabi's words. "I was thinking about focusing on combat support or maybe be a ice battle mage," she said, glancing shyly at Dabi.

Zen smiled at his sister. "Dabi's right. Go with what feels natural to you. You'll excel in anything as long as you're passionate about it."

Just as Jeni was about to respond, Kiba, one of the new recruits, approached them.

Kiba was a promising young student with an intense drive to succeed. Dabi had taken note of him during their travels and had high hopes for the boy.

"Dabi, I wanted to thank you for your advice earlier," Kiba said. "I've decided to focus on Tactical Combat and Strategic Defense. I want to get stronger, and I'm willing to put in the work. If you ever need a support or extra person for raid, just let me know."

Dabi smiled and gave Kiba a nod of approval. "Keep working hard. You've got a lot of potential. Remember, strength isn't just about raw power. It's also about knowing how to use it wisely."

Kiba grinned, clearly motivated by Dabi's words. "I won't let you down!" he promised before heading off to join his classmates.

Before they could continue their conversation, a group of giggling girls approached, clearly interested in talking to Dabi.

They greeted him with enthusiasm, complimenting his recent achievements in battle and trying to get his attention.

Jeni, standing beside Zen, felt her cheeks heat up again, but this time with a mix of embarrassment and jealousy. She shifted awkwardly, unsure of how to react as the girls fawned over Dabi.

It wasn't like her to feel this way, but there was something about seeing Dabi surrounded by others that made her stomach twist in knots.

Dabi, ever the stoic, handled the attention with his usual politeness, though he seemed somewhat uncomfortable under the barrage of compliments.

He quickly excused himself, much to the disappointment of the girls, and turned back to Zen and Jeni.

"I should head to class," Dabi said, heading toward the academy's main building. "Good luck with your orientation."

Jeni's blush returned, and she waved goodbye as Dabi and Zen headed off toward the senior students' area. "Thanks, Dabi," she called after him, her voice barely above a whisper.

The new recruits began their orientation classes, eager to start their journey at Astral Heaven Academy. Meanwhile, Dabi and Zen made their way to the senior students' training grounds.

The academy had already begun preparations for the upcoming National Ranking Tournament, a highly anticipated event that would pit students from all over the country against one another in a series of intense battles.

Only the best would be able to participate, and the competition was fierce.

Professor Farek Ferrin, one of the academy's most experienced instructors and a son of the headmaster, stood at the front of the training hall, addressing the group of senior students. His voice boomed across the room, commanding their full attention.

"For the next two weeks, you will be undergoing an intensive training camp," Professor Farek announced.

"Those of you who will be participating in the National Ranking Tournament will receive extra lessons to prepare you for the challenges ahead.

The tournament is only three weeks away, and you must be at your peak if you wish to succeed."

Dabi, Zen, and three other students stood in a small group near the front.

They were the five students chosen to represent Astral Heaven Academy in the tournament, and the pressure to perform was immense.

Each of them had worked hard to reach this point, and now the real test was about to begin.

"The training will be grueling," Professor Farek continued, his eyes narrowing as he surveyed the students before him.

"But it is necessary. Only through hard work and perseverance can you hope to rise in the rankings."

Dabi nodded to himself, feeling the weight of the upcoming tournament. He had faced countless challenges before, but this was different.

The National Ranking Tournament wasn't just about proving his strength it was about representing Astral Heaven Academy and cementing his place among the elite.

As Professor Farek continued to outline the training schedule, Zen leaned over and whispered to Dabi. "Looks like we're in for a rough few weeks."

Dabi smirked. "Wouldn't have it any other way."

The next few days were going to be intense, filled with rigorous training, sparring matches, and strategy sessions.

The five students chosen for the tournament would be pushed to their limits as they prepared for what lay ahead.

But Dabi wasn't worried. He had grown stronger, both in body and mind, and with his newly evolved Dimensional Summon skill, he had a powerful new tool at his disposal. Whatever challenges the tournament threw at him, he was ready.

The following day, the real training began. The first part of the regimen was focused on physical conditioning.

The students were taken to the academy's vast training fields, where they would undergo a series of grueling exercises designed to push their bodies to the limit.

The group started with intense endurance drills running, lifting, and agility exercises that tested their stamina.

Dabi, with his enhanced stats, found the physical challenges manageable, but he knew this was just the beginning. The real test would come later when they moved on to combat training.

Zen, who had always excelled in strategy, kept up with the physical challenges but found himself struggling in the agility drills.

Dabi noticed his friend's frustration and offered a few tips on how to improve his speed.

"Focus on your balance," Dabi suggested, demonstrating a quick dodge move. "It's not just about how fast you can run. It's about controlling your movements."

Zen nodded, determined to improve.

The bond between the two had grown stronger over the years, and Dabi knew that they a long way to goo before they could truly change the course of battle by just being present.
