Road to Mastery 2
Trial Planet. The galaxy's greatest proving grounds.
Jack is on the run from a B-Grade galactic empire. On top of that, he needs to achieve extreme strength within a year if he wants to save Earth.
Half-measures aren't enough; accompanied by Brock the brave brorilla, Jack must rely on his talent and wits to cross hostile, unknown space territories and reach Trial Planet—the galaxy's greatest training grounds.
Nine planetary rings to conquer. Giants, barbarians, space monsters, puzzles, ancient trials, divine mysteries, and, worst of all... cultivators. When everything seems lost, the only way out is forward.
Can Jack and Brock conquer Trial Planet, or will they die trying?

Valerios
Valerios didn’t set out to be an author. Not exactly. His fascination began not with stories, but with patterns—of numbers, of words, of how one idea could quietly ripple into something larger. A quiet observer by nature, he found early joy in puzzles and precision, the kind of joy that eventually spilled into writing, where the rules were subtler and the outcomes more surprising.
His books, especially those in the Road to Mastery series, don’t just build worlds—they explore the tension between structure and chaos, growth and consequence. At their core lies a single question: how far can someone go if they’re willing to begin with nothing? That question, and the countless variations it spawns, drives Valerios’s work across the fantasy and progression genres. His stories tend to unfold with methodical patience, each step earned, each transformation justified. Readers drawn to careful worldbuilding, grounded character arcs, and quiet moments of triumph often find themselves unexpectedly hooked.
