Roll over and die, or become so strong nothing can stop him.
Cast into a brutal military camp by his once loving master, Mateo feels like the last six wonderful years of his life have been a lie. With the mysteries surrounding him growing, Mateo knows that his only option is to become one of the supernaturally powerful Duelists and grow in power until he can take his fate into his own hands.
That plan is thwarted from the beginning when he gets stuck with the lowest-ranked Root Card against his will, ensuring that his growth as a Duelist will always be excruciatingly slow. To make matters worse, the camp he has been thrown into is completely cutthroat, and survival isn’t guaranteed by a long shot.
Saddled with two other kids that he has never met before and a crow spirit bound to him by an ethereal chain, Mateo will need every ounce of courage, resilience, and mental acuity he can muster if he wants to make it out of the training camp alive.
Don't miss the start of the next great Fantasy LitRPG Series by Seth Ring, author of the best-selling Battle Mage Famer and Nova Terra. Grab your copy today and join Mateo as he ascends through the flames of war.

My only minor gripe is the cards don't have any major impact till halfway through the book but the foundation is set for an exciting series.
Slow start to an excellent story

A surprisingly enjoyable listen despite not being my usual thing. While the teenage protagonist and card-based system didn’t fully click for me, the worldbuilding, overarching mysteries, and excellent narration carried the story. Seth Ring continues to show why he's one of the most consistent voices in LitRPG. A bit too sanitised in tone, but still compelling enough that I’ll continue the series.
Great worldbuilding, odd mechanics

Not only do the training methods make absolutely no sense at all that kills 80% of recruits just because someone forced to be on their made a tiny mistake. Senseless waste of resources and no regard to potential vs. current strength. They pit 18 year olds vs. 12 year olds from various backgrounds with some having iron cards and others gold cards and judge them all by the same standard, and instantly kill anyone and their team who makes the smallest mistake or can't endure insane physical requirements without any training.
Most of the survival tricks are mostly wrong, and the attitudes and actions of the recruits are as idiotic and unnatural as how a modern high school student from USA would react in a situation where no harm can to them, rather than how slaves conditioned to violent bootcamp and lethal punishments.
Especially the MC's reactions make no sense, being traumatized and shocked after killing an adult recruit attacking him in a life or death trial, when not only was he raised in the slums, but he has already killed several people before in the story for less, and showed no remorse.
Now he defends himself from 6 people who ambush and try to kill them with superior numbers and weaponry, and he kills their leader that comes for him. Then everyone, including his teammates and himself, suddenly treat him as some satan incarnate and even aim their weapons on him. Completely forgetting how 80% of them had already been killed arbitrarily by the trainers, each fight started had to be ended in death and how they had been ambushed by the others.
So the idiotic MC goes straight to the captain to demand for his own execution, because he killed a fellow recruit, not only refusing to explain any self-defense circumstances, but completely altering the facts to make himself face certain execution. Tbh, the author should have just had the MC executed right then and there and end the series for such idiotic writing.
Such ridiculously naive and inconsistent writing that is quite frustrating, especially when the story has so much potential. At least it seems to be mostly temporary, and the early and late parts of the book are quite good.
Pretty good story, idiot MC, so many plotholes and miserable middle section
