On the twentieth level, there is another test to determine who may continue to climb the tower. Many who have failed and buried their dreams gather there. However, Ja Wangnan does not want to give up and puts everything on one last chance.

Once all the successful candidates had gathered, the second test began. However, the Test Director makes a strange proposal to Viole, who passes the test with top marks.

In the test on the 20th floor, the examinees are supposed to form teams and capture rooms. However, trust is a rare resource in a world that rewards betrayal.

Beta allows Medina to enter his body and becomes its host, making him a legitimate competitor, as he sets out to eliminate all of Viole’s friends!

Viole finally acquires Enryu’s “Thorn.” Reflejo, who has been trying to acquire the Thorn along with Viole, even if it means involving the entire Workshop Battle, desperately tries to prevent him from escaping.
