Hi, This CRT is about Universal Energy System and Powerups on each rank in Shadow Slave verse. For this CRT, I thank @LOTM_Historian and @NITROMonkey1000 and many others who have helped me with the scans and explanations shown in this crt.

In Shadow Slave, the concepts of Soul Core and Essence form the backbone of its energy system. Here's how they correspond to a Universal energy system:
1. Essence as a Multifaceted Energy Source
Soul Essence flows naturally throughout the body, saturating bones and muscles, and is integral to both physical prowess and supernatural abilities. As individuals rank up along the Path of Ascension, the quality of their Soul Essence increases, enhancing all aspects of their being, including strength, speed, durability, perception, and mystical abilities. This demonstrates a direct link between energy progression and overall power, a core trait of universal energy systems.
2. Soul cores as the source of essence:
The Soul Core accumulates and stores vast amounts of Soul Essence, serving as the central point from which a character's power emanates. Both humans and Nightmare Creatures possess soul cores, suggesting a universal energy framework that transcends species
3. Cross-Realm Functionality
The energy system operates seamlessly across different realms, such as the Dream Realm and the Waking World, with essence and soul cores functioning identically in both. Characters(usually transcendent rank or saints) can absorb and utilize spirit essence(cool, flowing energy, similar to Soul Essence but this ambient essence seems to belong to the world) regardless of the realm they are in, indicating a universal applicability of the energy system.

Now, this will be about the rank up and class up powerups;
First of all, there are 7 ranks in shadow slave, Dormant, Awakened, Ascended, Transcendent, Supreme, Sacred, Divine. And in story humans call these ranks as Sleeper, Awakened, Master, Saint, Sovereign, Spirit, (unknown) no one has reached this rank yet so no name for it. So, on every rank their soul cores and soul essence grow more potent. And about soul cores, humans can only form 1 core. But Divine aspect holders (Human whose aspect is ranked at divine rank in potential) can form 7 cores. Nightmare Creatures (Corrupted monsters) can also form multiple soul cores. These 7 cores are named as Beast, Monster, Demon, Devil, Tyrant, Terror, Titan. A character needs 1000 fragments for saturating their beast core. 2000 for monster, 3000 for demon. 4000 for devil, 5000 for tyrant, 6000 for terror, 7000 for titan. So, for humans, just like for Sunless (mc of shadow slave) when he was trying to saturate his beast core, he noticed that he needed 1000 fragments to do it. By each fragment, his physical capabilities were enhanced. And by gaining hundreds of fragments, he noticed a significant change in his physical capabilities. Sunny gets stronger by accumulating fragments - every 1000 fragments grant him a power boost. So, when he gains another 1000, he effectively becomes twice as strong as before. Saturating a monster core grants 3000 fragments (1000 from beast core, 2000 from monster core so 1000 + 2000 = 3000) which means Sunny receives three full boosts, making him three times stronger than someone who hasn’t saturated their core. And till reaching the titan core and saturating it completely, they receive 28000 fragments, so that's 28 times buff.
Shadows and soul flames buff: Sunny's dormant ability allows him to augment himself with his shadows. For Nephis, it's her soul flames. Shadows work as all-rounder stat multipliers. If he wraps 1 shadow around himself, it's a 2× multiplier; if he wraps 4, the multiplier is 5, and if he wraps 7, it's 8×. Nephis's Soul Flames also work the same way.
So, let's discuss rank-up Multipliers:
When Sunny saturated his core enough to create a monster core (1000 fragments) he said he felt like he was augmented by a shadow, and these shadows double his power, so getting a monster core = 2x amp Then later Sunny went through the awakening process, he said it felt like he had received 1000 fragments, which is already said is like a 2x amp. This is further support by him When Sunny first became awakened, he stated that he felt so strong that he thought he was augmented by his shadow., This means Sunny became 4x stronger when he became an Awakened. Gap between a sleeper and an awakened = 4x.
Sunny in the Dreamscape tournament goes against Morgan, who is a top-tier master. Sunny atp has 3 shadows he is using and 3 cores (1000 + 2000 = 3000 / 1000 = 3x amp). This means that overall sunny is 12x the strength of a normal awakened(not to include the fact he has a divine aspect and is overall just a lot stronger than the average awakened) Even with this insane buff sunny still cannot match morgan in any physical thing she does and even ends up getting perception blitzed to the point he only knows what happened after he died. Gap between an Awakened and a Master = 12x, although it can be argued that morgan is a top tier so the gap maybe not that much. So for it this feat should work In this scene Sunny is a demon (3 cores, so 1000+2000 =3,000/1000=3x amp) He has 3 shadows which would amp him 4 times, so 4 x 3 =12x amp
Even with all this, he is barely keeping up with Pierce, who is a low-tier master. From this, we can see that the gap between awakened to master is 12x
Using the same logic as above. Master Sunny in the battle of the black skull arc had 5 cores (hence a 1000+2000+3000+4000 =10,000/1000=10x amp) and twice his regular shadow augmentation, as he was also boosted by Nephis's soul flames, to keep up with Dire Fang. And later in fight sunny mentioned that the buff was around 15 times by saying if he buffed Saint(his echo) then by 15 times buff she should be enough to fight a powerful creature like corrupted titan. This would mean that Sunny atp was 150 times stronger than an average master Gap between a Saint and a Master = 150x
