Academy Battle Royals: Stealing Powers to Reach the Top
Experience the high-stakes world of elite academies where the only way to climb the ranks is by claiming your rivals' abilities for yourself.

It’s a high-octane journey from underdog to unstoppable force, where every duel brings a new upgrade.
These stories thrive on the tension of the tournament arc.

Prepare for intense combat, clever tactical maneuvers, and the relentless pursuit of strength that defines the genre.
