Seeing that Su Chen had accepted his goodwill, Ming Lin chatted idly for a few more monts before preparing to leave.
But Su Chen stopped him. "Brother Ming, I’m about to go choose my advancent profession, but I don’t know the specific location. Could you take there?"
"Of course, no problem." Ming Lin smiled, accepting Su Chen’s own gesture of goodwill.
The two of them left and chatted idly on the way. Ming Lin gave him a general overview of the other three Core Seeds, including their personalities and other traits.
The Judicial Court was bustling in the morning. Su Chen roughly estimated that out of every ten people they passed, at least five would greet Ming Lin.
And of those five, two or three were particularly respectful.
"This is it..."
The two stopped in front of a silver-white building guarded by heavily ard soldiers. The aura emanating from the guards made even Su Chen’s heart palpitate with alarm.
"You can go in by yourself. I don’t have the authority," Ming Lin said. "It’ll probably take you a while to choose, so I’ll be going."
They exchanged contact information before Su Chen presented his identification and entered.
’Not a single one of them is a simple character. Sigh... Why can’t there be a few more idiots like Pang Xingwen?’ Su Chen mused as he walked up the steps.
The hall was quite empty, with only a single front desk staffed by a chanical puppet. As soon as Su Chen approached, it spoke:
"Core Seed Su Chen, you have two opportunities remaining to redeem Tier Three Professions, with the highest available being Tier Three Upper. One for the Physical Side, and one for the Spiritual Side. Please use them with caution."
’So it really is two types. Old Xia gets things done.’ Su Chen grinned.
On the way over, Ming Lin had briefly explained to him that while choosing a profession might seem simple, it was actually extrely complex.
One had to consider compatibility with previous professions, whether future professions had long-term potential, and one’s own personal circumstances, age, and so on.
Generally, before making a choice, one would consult an analyst for a detailed study to list the best options.
He had already had Sang Hanhai analyze his Physical Side, so he didn’t hesitate and imdiately stated the na: "For the Physical Side, I want the Gale and Thunder Envoy."
"Gale and Thunder Envoy, Tier Three Upper. Now retrieving. Please review..."
A virtual screen materialized in front of Su Chen, and lines of text appeared.
[Tier Three Advanced Profession discovered—Gale and Thunder Envoy. Advancent is possible upon completion of requirents.]
[Advancent Requirent 1: Raise three E-level Body Refining Techniques to Master Level.]
[Advancent Requirent 2: Infiltrate a building guarded by a Tier Three and remain undetected, using three different thods.]
[Advancent Requirent 3: In a Thunderstorm Zone, envelop yourself with the Thunder Elent and remain for over an hour.]
The three detailed requirents were listed on the screen.
’Tsk... The difficulty is even higher now. Just for a Superior profession, it’s jumped to three requirents,’ Su Chen remarked with a sigh.
The first one was a standard requirent, but the second one was a bit troubleso. The higher the Tier, the more complex one’s power composition becos. To avoid detection three separate tis... that was not going to be easy.
’Besides, a requirent like this is extrely subjective. If you’re discovered, you’re discovered. Even using one of our own people won’t be simple,’ Su Chen pondered. ’And the last one... wrapping myself in the Thunder Elent in a Thunderstorm Zone. I’d be a living Lightning Rod.’
The difficulty was high, but he wasn’t anxious. Even without considering his panel, he recalled what Ming Lin had told him on the way here.
When Core Seeds like them were ready for advancent, the Judicial Court would dispatch a team to create a plan and make multiple attempts based on the requirents.
"For the Spiritual Side, I need the Secret Weaver..." Su Chen said. The mont the words left his mouth, his panel suddenly popped up—
[The Gale and Thunder Envoy arrived with a scornful gaze, only to discover the seated Great Venerable Red Fla Thunder Resonator. It paled in shock and offered fawning flattery, but found that the Great Venerable did not speak. After much deliberation, it decided to weaken the profession requirents.]
[Advancent Requirent 2 has been weakened: only one infiltration thod is now required.]
[Advancent Requirent 3 has been weakened: remaining in the Thunderstorm Zone for half an hour is now sufficient.]
"Ha..." Su Chen couldn’t help but laugh. ’Arriving with a scornful gaze... As a Tier Three Upper profession, I guess it can afford to be a little arrogant compared to my other professions. Too bad...’
The further weakening of the requirents was naturally good news. When Su Chen snapped out of his daze, he heard the chanical puppet’s voice.
"Apologies. You cannot make a new profession selection until twenty minutes have passed."
’It’s just a few lines of text, and I’m forced to stare at it for twenty minutes? Are they afraid I won’t be able to morize it?’ Su Chen was speechless and could only wait.
Once the ti was up, he called up the Secret Weaver.
[Tier Three Advanced Profession discovered—Secret Weaver. Advancent is possible upon completion of requirents.]
[Advancent Requirent 1: Raise three E-level ditation Techniques to Master Level.]
[Advancent Requirent 2: Endure for over one hour in the Delirious Words Trial.]
[Advancent Requirent 3: Independently design three Elental Abilities of at least Tier Two strength.]
’The Delirious Words Trial... an entire hour of that? What the hell...’
The other requirents were fine. Even independently designing Elental Abilities wouldn’t be a big problem for him, thanks to the support from his Physical Side profession. But that Delirious Words Trial was just too bizarre.
He looked at his panel with anticipation. And as expected, it didn’t disappoint—
[The Secret Weaver arrived cautiously, only to discover the seated Great Venerable Red Fla Thunder Resonator. It bowed carefully, but the Great Venerable paid it no mind. After much deliberation, it decided to slightly weaken the profession requirents.]
[Advancent Requirent 3 has been weakened: designing the Elental Ability is reduced to one.]
’Why wasn’t the Delirious Words Trial requirent reduced? This Secret Weaver is a sneaky one.’
Su Chen muttered. This one was clearly smarter than the Gale and Thunder Envoy. The Great Venerable hadn’t actually done anything either ti; it was purely their own assumptions.
’Still, weakened is better than not weakened at all...’
