Blurb: It's time for Raysha to embrace her power.
After an arduous journey to integrate an ancient spirit heart into her core, Raysha sets out to prove her worth in the Academy's tournament.
Raysha must find a path, forge her own techniques, and advance to the Initiate. But as the clock ticks down to the start of the contest, will she be able to prepare and overcome the fierce competition from the student elite? Can she control the vast ocean of aeon with sheer stubbornness and claim victory?
Provided the tournament is a straightforward content of will and power, Raysha is determined to find a way. Political incidents, internal and international, are something she'd like to stay in her past.

Another shorter review. If you haven't read the book, or if you're on the fence about it, you can read my review of the first book here: https://www.felixtaylorbooks.com/post/review-soul-relic-manifestation
Generally a decent follow-up to the first book, as long as you’re ready to accept a few things: it’s still pretty slow-paced (though faster than the first one), and there’s a big tournament focus in this book.
The progression is faster here than the previous book by a decent margin, and I’m starting to get a really good grasp on the magic.The “system” (it’s not a litrpg, just the magic system) continues to be well-thought-out and interesting. That being said, the world and politics is still a little muddled for me.
Also, I’ve gotta add…the MC, Raysha, is starting to remind me a little of Korra from (from Legend Of Korra). I figure that’s also a decent metric of how much you’re going to like this series—because it’s not for everyone.
