The jade identification card listed out all the rules in the Dual Sovereign Pavilion with a detailed explanation. It even pointed out the important things to remember.
Everything Fane needed to know could be found inside. For example, he wanted to know how to advance to the position of a formal disciple from the position of an informal disciple and found out that he only needed to level up to the initial stage of the acquired level. He had always thought that he would need to go through a series of tough tests to become a formal disciple.
"I only need to level up to the initial stage of acquired level to become a formal disciple? Isn't this a bit too simplistic?" muttered Fane to himself. After all, the initial stage of the acquired level was only two small levels away from the initial stage of innate level. Two small levels within a bigger level, was that what really separated an informal disciple from a formal disciple? Fane could not help but feel that the Dual Sovereign Pavilion must be pulling his leg.
He could not understand the reasoning behind it so he decided to enter Mustard Seed and invited Nash to have a discussion about this. He figured that two heads would be better than one. Since he had just arrived, he wanted to take some time to observe his fellow recruits before deciding who to befriend. Therefore, he only had his family to turn to when he wanted to discuss problems like this.
Nash did not think there was a problem at all after Fane had told him about it. "You can't judge the workings of the Hestia Continent using the perspectives of the Cathysia World. You're operating in a completely different world now. Do you remember how we divided up all the levels in Cathysia and only found out that the Hestina Continent had lumped all the smaller levels into one big level when we first reached here? It may seem like the initial stage of the acquired level is only two levels away from the initial stage of the innate level but when seen from the perspective of Cathysia, they are oceans apart."
Fane understood Nash's explanation instantly. He chastised himself for his own stupidity and narrow-mindedness. The Hestia Continent had combined all the little levels into the acquired level which meant that the gap in between was much bigger than he thought. He feared that even breaking through the initial stage of intermediate level from the initial stage of innate level would be a difficult feat for him.
Fane nodded his head and said, "No wonder the person working in the cafe said it would require great cultivation to advance to the initial stage of intermediate level from the initial stage of innate level. I understand now that there's a huge difference between the two after all." He initially thought that it would not take him long to move up two levels but it was obvious he had underestimated the division of levels in this world. Going by the new division, it would at least take him a few years to move up now.
Nash sighed with admiration after he was done reading the content in the jade identification card with his divine senses." I wouldn't expect any less from the Dual Sovereign Pavilion. Their knowledge of the resources secret palace, martial art techniques, and pills put ours to shame. Not to mention the many, many rules of theirs. However, it's true what they said-nothing can be accomplished without norms or standards. I have no doubt that was how they managed to nurture all the genius to carry on the torch for them."
Fane nodded, and too, sighed with admiration at the all-powerful Hestia Continent. Any one of the people from the Hestia Continent could easily become the strongest person in the Cathysia World.
