79 World Progresses, First Eve at The adow!
As the evening neared, the people around Unfettered Guild were battling in duels.
The new function was handy, and everyone liked it because they could visibly learn and improve and get to know each other.
Although so tension, cold wars, and fights broke out on rare occasions where people ca to like and sh well with so while not with others.
So ford groups of three, so twos, and so remained solo. They had spent their day outside, battled evening, and were now here for recruitnt so that they could live in those otherworldly buildings with magical and comfortable facilities.
This new guild was not at the level of other guilds since it was just ford today, but every day, it would get new building structures, and the area would also beco larger, just like how three guilds leveled up today, making the total number of level two guilds reach five. All of them looked so wonderful to live in for people who were not part of the guilds.
Moreover, there were also benefits attached to staying in a guild. Everyone felt it was a necessary step to progress forward and at the frontline, baring so extraordinary individuals across the world who chose the path of solo, going yolo.
Erix, Rin, and Isabella soon arrived and told the crowd outside they would start after half an hour.
"Let's quickly absorb the cores and distribute our stat points. We have to show our peak power today," Erix said with a fired-up smile.
He sat down, put five cores, and closed his eyes.
Rin and Isabella also quickly joined him.
But a few seconds later, Erix suddenly paused, surprised. 'What's with this fast absorption speed?'
Rin and Isabella were also started.
"Is it just , or can you two absorb faster now?" Rin asked, looking at Isabella and Erix, who nodded in response.
"It's probably because of our Spiritual Art since the speed at which we can absorb cores depends on our soul, and spiritual art seems to have sothing to do with it," Erix speculated before shaking his head, "anyway, that doesn't matter. Let's continue and finish this fast."
…
The ten hours of hunting in the forest made the trio reach level 57, surprisingly giving so bonus magic stats on a few hunts, while basic stats as usual on other hunts and gave a total loot of 28 cores. Rin absorbed 11, Erix absorbed 9, and Isabella absorbed 8.
This whole day of hunting in the forest significantly boosted the trio, especially the stat points gained from supra-order beasts.
11:50
The benefit of slow leveling showed that they could get more stats points because they would always get so if they killed monsters of the sa level as them or higher.

[A/M: I am aware I hadn't shown Isabella's armor set's details when she got it, but it will be fixed quickly when the first floor opens in a chapter after a chapter :D]
...
Their physical stats were increasing quickly, while magic was left behind since they could only get it from cores. At least, they could start increasing magic and mana, unlike before when they were in Mortal-Order rank.
They only took ten minutes to absorb cores, so after resting for twenty minutes, Erix, Rin, and Isabella ca out to begin the event.
"Rin, Erix! You don't mind us as an audience, right?" Kenshin and Saira flew up towards the gate, and Erix quickly gave them permission to enter from the guild interface.
Naturally, the crowd was surprised to see the masters of Heavenly lody Guild here. "Go and tell them you'll call them on stadiums," Kenshin said, showing three floating miniature earth battle stadiums on his palm. Erix raised his eyebrows. He had also seen various stadiums and avenues around other guilds, so he also needed to do that. He planned to do it with his tal Affinity and build a proper platform with Isabella's Earth Elental Gear and his tal affinity. 'But his structure is so solid...Affinity! He clearly has the Earth affinity,' Erix instantly deduced based on Kenshin's control and ease of flow he sensed in the miniature stadiums. 'This mastery…'
A second later, Erix ca to accept with astonishnt that Kenshin's control and attunent of Earth affinity were far higher than Erix's control and attunent of tal affinity!
'I guess many foreign martial artists and those various monks and such type of people would progress fast and have higher chances of mastering affinity.'
"I appreciate the offer, father-in-law," Erix smiled, a slightly cheeky one, and added, "but since this is our guild, I shall show them our capabilities."
"That's right, Dad. Just watch."
Isabella smiled and nodded at Erix and Rin, "I'll start. You two go."
…
"Everyone! Before we choose the teams, I would like those who are classless and have yet to reach Supra-order to back away!"
Erix shouted as he and Rin floated in the sky facing approximately five hundred people.
"What?! But we will eventually reach there, so why don't you test us now?!"
A young man with short dark brown hair shouted from below. He had two other youngsters his age in his team, one boy and one girl.
"I want those who reached there fast, not eventually," Erix plainly replied.
Right after Erix finished speaking, three floating circular brown soil platforms expanded in the sky twenty ters from the ground. Isabella didn't have Earth affinity, so her control and structure integrity of those Earth platforms was not strong.
But Erix had tal affinity!
Exir waved his hand as iron elents gathered and coated around the earth platforms in a solid structure like steel! The platforms were ready with tal stands supporting them.
His mana was gone, but starting the duel would turn them into their peak condition, so he wouldn't have trouble fighting, and it would also naturally recover as ti passed.
"Alright!
People were already in their groups and maintained distance, so Erix announced, "Those who can fly, co up first and choose your ring!"
After a second of silence, ten people flew up, and after glancing around while flying, they chose their platform.
One group of three at Isabella's platform. One group of two at Rin's platform.
And two groups on Erix's platform. Both had three people in each.
The battle started within a minute after the duel confirmation. Fortunately, one vs. multiple was possible.
Rin's battle ended quickly, within a minute. She won by a landslide as her opponents couldn't even follow her attacks and speed.
Isabella was showing her habit of being passive, but her performance was marvelous. Wind Dash to dodge, Frost Shield to block, Fla Whips to attack. But her Elental Gears would further give her elental boost, and Elental Zone would do the sa by concentrating respective elents as her Elental Gear.
So, Isabella's opponents were helpless against her no matter what kind of projectiles they threw at her. As for getting close to striking with their lee weapons? Out of the question. She was too quick, agile, and more of an expert in close combat than them.
Isabella won shortly in five minutes.
Aside from levels, skills, stats, and items, there was another difference, the most major difference that separated people of the world at the current stage--Those who had awakened affinity and those who hadn't.
The pri example was Erix just flying while leaving his opponents helpless.
"Co on, focus! How are you going to hit ?"
"Put a trap! Predict!"
"Young man, you are fucking too fast!"
Erix had just a thin layer of iron suit around him, but with his powerful telekinesis, which was also thanks to his powerful mind, Erix could move at weirdly high speed since maneuvering even in small spaces only required him to use his mind.
He was a wingless flyer, as he could fly with his mind at high micro and macro levels.
He hadn't even summoned his Scarbio Zombie on their ass. That zombie was agile and strong with its high stats and annoying skills! "Alright, stop." Erix stopped flying.
"Hyaa! Aaah, s-sorry!"
A whirling green orb filled with potent energy shot towards Erix, but Erix just narrowed his eyes and punched at the incoming skill shot that was clearly powerful with so extraordinary effects based on dark green and light green sparks whirled around it! Clearly, it was a class skill.
However, Erix's fist had his best weapon equipped, and he could manifest it anyti since it was rged with his arms.
The Radiant…Crush…Gauntlets!
The punch and skill clashed before the whirling green orb shattered and dispersed, showing everyone the winner.
"W-What the fuck? That skill should have exploded upon impact!" the girl who used the skill shouted. She looked like she was in her late teens. "Not on my fist," Erix snorted before he pointed Amberros Death at them.
Erix was already surprised to see soone young at Supra-order, but it was not too rare in Phoenix City, considering there were three major martial artist dojos situated.
"You three imdiately created a defensive skill when the battle started since you thought I would directly attack," Erix smiled and said, "Well, put your best defensive skills. Combine or combo, do whatever and show your best defense against my offense."
The trio facing him consisted of an eighteen-year-old girl and a couple looking in their late thirties. He didn't know if she was their daughter but was not interested in learning unless he chose them.
More importantly, he wanted to see his various offenses against the defense of this trio, who all had different defensive skills that looked powerful.
