Okay, so after multiple days I finally managed to implement custom text on lives display, it was quite a challenge, I tried using the WriteGameText subroutine but I didn't have success, so I had to implement my own subroutine with the text tables to write directly to the PPU address.
To test my implementations I use two emulators, FCEUX and MesenCE, both have debuggers, and MesenCE is more accurate (unfortunately I don't have real hardware to test it).
Now I changed my signature to point to this thread, I wonder why I didn't do this sooner. Anyway, I'm working on the level design of Realm 4-1:
