Aqui está a tradução do terceiro trecho para o inglês:

"Sure, I’m only in the second realm," Kayden replied with a dry, emotionless agreent. The emperor decided to take a leap of faith and threw three teenagers in front of Kayden.
Each of them had different colored hair and so distinct features, but it was clear they shared at least one parent, as their eyes were identical to the emperor’s.
The eldest was in the fourth realm and wasn’t even 20 years old, an incredible talent Kayden hadn’t seen in a long ti on this planet. He carried a huge red tal sword on his back.
The other two were won and were identical, except that one had blonde hair and the other red. They were in the third realm and seed to be around 18 years old.
The three were nobles of the highest level, and even so, their realms weren’t that high. It was obvious to Kayden that the emperor had done an excellent job with these three; they were extrely strong for their realms. Kayden estimated that the boy was a seven-ray mage, while the other two were six-ray mages. A good level of talent, considering the average in this world. Additionally, their auras were strong and calm.
"Hello, Kayden, father told us to beco friends," the blonde said with a smile. The other two remained quiet and just nodded.
In their minds, there wasn’t much point in getting to know Kayden. Even though he was strong, he wasn’t a noble, his strength wouldn’t blossom, and he’d likely be killed by soone in the future. A rather naive thought, given the situation.
"Nice to et you, I’m Kayden Heart," Kayden’s brief introduction made the three uneasy.
They were used to being greeted with bows most of the ti and with grand titles and accomplishnts accompanying the nas of those who spoke, even when dealing with people their age.
"Do you know who we are?"
"No," Kayden said, and a frown appeared on the faces of the three. It was quite clear they weren’t accustod to this kind of treatnt.
"We are the princes of this empire, the highest nobility, and the most worthy of the throne in the entire territory."
Kayden just looked at them as if he was seeing three fools. He had already forgotten how humans were prone to arrogance. Princes of a tiny empire on a tiny planet and arrogance was embedded in every bone of their bodies.
"I see," Kayden simply responded and remained silent. The silence lasted for seconds, enough for him to lose interest in paying attention to the three idiots in front of him.
The situation was being closely watched by the five leaders of the empire, which made Konan, the eldest prince, feel compelled to react. He infused so mana into his arm and was about to give Kayden a shake, but…
"Sotis the realm doesn’t an everything, son," the emperor appeared next to Konan, whose arm was now broken and completely shattered on the ground.
"What was that?" Neither Konan nor the other two understood. None of the five around them understood anything.
Only Kayden knew what he had done. This was the highest degree of politeness on his path; he was capable of manipulating his opponents’ mana. As soon as the mana flowed into Konan’s arm, he exploded it outward, causing the prince to be pushed back.
This technique made the realm aningless to him, as he only needed to manipulate the opponent’s mana better than they did, and using his path... it was almost child’s play.
Even more so considering he had only one life in his soul, this allowed him to express a strength far beyond what he had ever been capable of. As soon as the mana made the slightest movent, he identified all its points.
In just a mont, he broke the chain of mana’s flow and reversed the direction. With a little more effort, he could have made all the mana in the prince’s body explode without even having any way to avoid it.
"Kayden, what was that? How did I lose?" Konan swallowed his pride and asked the question everyone was expecting. Unfortunately, Kayden didn’t even bother to look at him.
"Personal techniques," that was all, and nothing more. There wasn’t ti to continue the conversation, as the end signal of the test sounded.
In the end, only five hundred people passed the second test, a relatively high number yet also quite small. The next stage was very simple: a battle where ten mages would enter, and only one would leave.
The winners automatically secured a spot in the academy, while the rest would go through one more screening test and could finally be considered official participants of the Imperial Academy.
Kayden didn’t waste any ti prolonging the battle. As soon as it started, he removed each participant from the arena with a few simple aura cuts. They were harmless and only left a thin cut on the participants’ necks, but it was a very clear sign.
Besides him, only four other wizards managed to perform a similar feat of strength, in many other points it was still a one-against-nine beating, but for the most part, they were normal, boring fights.
With that, his family received all possible honors at this event. Kayden considered himself free of any gratitude at that mont, so much so that he returned to the emperor and proposed a small deal that would benefit both.
"Let live in the imperial palace, and I’ll give your children so tips from ti to ti," the emperor readily agreed. Kayden was an enigma of power and knowledge.
Moreover, there was no harm in bringing the boy even closer to his side. The worst that could happen was Kayden being taken by the gods, and in the best case, the boy would beco an intimate participant in the empire.
"No problem." the emperor said with a smile, not knowing that he was indirectly decreeing the end of his empire.
