Since the Sun Knight's rebirth, Kai's soul has been constantly strengthening, and now his Spiritual Energy has reached 2.6 million kilok.
Even without the Ascension Ceremony, at this rate, he will eventually break through to level 17 Spiritual Energy.
This is why he was chosen as the second candidate for the Ascension Ceremony—Kai's potential is so immense and active that the number of cycles needed for the ceremony will be reduced.
The Royal City's reserves of the Three Elements are still low, unable to support too many cycles of the Ascension Ceremony.
Moreover, the fewer cycles required, the fewer resources are needed.
This way, the Royal City can perform the Ascension Ceremony for more people.
Although since the end of the Blood God battle, Kai has been fighting continuously, his State is very good and he only needed a short period of adjustment.
The Ascension Ceremony is still held at the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.
