Chapter 928: Chapter 497: The Ultimate Intensive Membership Standards_2

They had already gathered all the information that they could, even managing to understand the process of entering Flamefire.

There are mainly two methods:

One is to take the examination for entrance into the Flamefire Academy, the branch located in the City of Raging Flame, and to stand out within the academy to secure an official spot to enter Flamefire.

The second is through the application process to work in departments overseen by the Blazefire Commerce Guild within the city, or to be part of mission guilds spread across various domains, and then to stand out in internal assessments to obtain qualification for the Flamefire membership examination.

But what they could gather were only very rough details.

They wanted to ask about specifics, such as the difficulty of the exam and the exact standards for obtaining the qualification, and so on.

The young man was silent for a while, then said:

"The standards for obtaining examination qualifications are not certain, most organizational departments likely have their own quotas, but for you, this path is not an easy one to tread. If you can make outstanding contributions to the Commerce Guild or the City of Raging Flame, it would be easier to secure an examination spot."

This was the third pathway into Flamefire.

Upon hearing this, the Awakener experts all lit up, feeling that their visit today was worthwhile.

Friendship, loyalty!

"The methods to obtain the examination qualification are actually quite diverse. However, to pass the exam and officially enter Flamefire to become an honored member is not an easy task."

The young man poured cold water on their enthusiasm.

But the cold water seemed unable to extinguish the passion in the hearts of these Awakeners.

The young man pondered, then said,

"There is a long way to go from obtaining the examination qualification to official membership. You all need to understand, any official member of Flamefire is the elite of the elite; they must fight their way out of the competitors during the examination to earn that badge."

"The examination process is always changing; it’s hard to describe just how difficult it is..."

The young man hesitated for a while, but considering the valuable meal and the friendship before him, he revealed a personal detail.

"I have participated in multiple organizational entry examinations, but so far... I haven’t passed."

Awakener experts: "???"

At first glance, the speaker seemed incompetent, having failed to pass the examination several times.

But Awakener Lu Bing had known the young man for some time.

They were fairly acquainted.

He knew that the young man wasn’t someone who joked about such matters.

Was this true? The young man wasn’t an official member of the Flamefire organization?

Yet clearly, the young man was a powerful figure in the defense army of the City of Raging Flame, a seasoned Six Senses!

With such strength and status, he still couldn’t pass the membership exam? And had failed numerous times?!

"Now you understand how difficult it is to officially enter the organization."

"Of course, even if you can’t become a member, as long as you’re working in departments, institutions, or Oasis under Flamefire, you can enjoy some organizational benefits."

"Perhaps in the future, we may become colleagues."

The young man said with a smile.

What he didn’t say, however, was that he didn’t just fail the membership exams several times— he had failed a total of 25 times.

From a little over a year ago to now, he had suffered repeated defeats.

But such a record couldn’t really be called poor; it could even be considered above average.

At first, he participated in the exams mostly to try them out, just to go through the motions and familiarize himself with the process. Yet now, the young man was able to advance to a high-ranking position in the examinations. If it weren’t for the occasional prodigies who emerged and seized the membership spots of their cohorts, he might have become a member already.

He wasn’t bad at all.

It’s just that the number of experts emerging from training camps, academies, and various organizational departments was ever increasing; the entry examinations grew more competitive, and now, for a Six Senses to break through and be at the forefront was no easy task.

Mainly, it was just too competitive.

... Perhaps.

The young man laughed wryly at himself; compared to those geniuses, he was undoubtedly lacking.

As a Blue Star native who had been an external member of Flamefire for many years, he couldn’t allow outsiders to outdo him.

He had to maintain the pride of the Blue Star people!

Was it just about being competitive? Then let’s compete!

...

There is only one person renowned for his intensity in Flamefire, and that is Black Blade.

Just over two months ago, Black Blade took charge of the power of Oasis, battling a high-rank Mysterious Evil.

Once the battle ended, Black Blade returned to the Flamefire base, continuing his usual practice routine.

He was either practicing or teaching.

On the way to practice? Such downtime didn’t exist for Black Blade.

He could always contemplate laws on the move, simulate and apply skills in mind, or practice the Visualization Method; he wouldn’t waste even travel time.

It wasn’t just Black Blade who was diligently devoted to practice.

Even the famous problematic girl Yiluo Xi and the procrastination champion Silver Bell had been much more diligent in their training recently.

"I also want to step into the higher ranks!"

The girl with wine-red hair clenched her teeth in determination.

Originally, she was a bit smug about killing a high-ranking Mysterious Evil together with Citina.

But seeing An Jianyou manipulate the secret puppet, Liufeng Sword sever a high-ranking Mysterious Evil, Light Red lift up an energy sun...she pouted.

Her forte was in impressive large-scale attacks.

Yet upon comparing, she found that even if she channeled her power, even duplicating abilities through the Gate of Infinity, she still fell short of a true high-rank.

Yiluo Xi was unsatisfied.

She was a woman who aspired to become an empress; how could she fall behind others?

A mentor? Forget about the mentor for now, first set surpassing others as a minor goal. Once these minor goals are achieved one by one, then devise a way to surpass the mentor, to stand above the heavens, and proudly hold her ground in the world.

".....Hehehehe."

"Hohohoho!"

She laughed with her hands on her hips.

The weird and terrifying laughter echoed in the training ground and lingered for a long time.

The reason why Silverbell trained so diligently was also very simple.

She was involved.

She was a direct victim of the rat race.

Her colleagues were soaring to the skies, and even Yiluo Xi, a young girl, aimed to stand above the heavens; she also became restless.

Advancing was too hard, and failing would invite ridicule.

Ah, life is so hard.

She was merely a kind and benevolent physician.

In the training ground, Silverbell started to daydream.

Beneath her graceful figure and fair skin, there was a faint shimmer of multicolored black—that was heart-pounding... poison (strikeout), negative healing.

...

An Jianyou, Punisher Thunderbolt, Citina... the core powerhouses of Blazefire were all striving for the ninth realm, the high rank.

They deeply understood the divide between Demigod and high rank.

Not only the gap in combat power but also the difference in the speed of cultivation.

The later you advance, the larger the gap will become.

No one wants to be left behind and become powerless weaklings in face of disasters.

Perhaps, in the near future, Blazefire may witness a small peak of ’high rank advancements.’

At this moment, the City of Raging Flame was bustling and lively, welcoming many from the Mythic Realm and some from the Demigod Realm. The competitiveness of the various departments, agencies, and external influences under Blazefire also soared dramatically.

Taking advantage of the erupting influence, the Blazefire Commerce Guild was rapidly expanding across the entire Mysterious Eastern Realm.

Blazefire had many significant undertakings.

But such matters seldom drew the attention of Black Blade, An Jianyou, and others; they dedicated most of their energy to cultivation and advancement.

And so did Fang You.

He would take the occasional glance, swiftly scanning the major events at a speed faster than a machine, which was sufficient.

It didn’t take up even 0.01% of his time and energy.

The main tasks he was occupied with were only two.

Self-cultivation and core equipment research.

Fang You picked up a Conceptual Orb that contained the Law of Destruction and slapped it onto his forehead.

In a flash, strands of enlightenment flooded into his mind.

As if breaking through a bottleneck, divine thunder surged around him, drawing upon the entire heaven and earth, and suddenly clouds shrouded overhead with roaring thunderbolts.

Fang You slowly came to a realization of everything.

"I’ve broken through."

"My proficiency in the Law of Destruction."

The Law of Destruction was one of the laws he mastered, the most profound among them.

If he were to make a breakthrough...

Fang You opened his panel, and the display was as expected.

「Law of Destruction (Master), Severing Law (Expert), Sharpness Law (Expert), Growth Law (Expert), Ignition Law (Adept), ...」

A Master-level proficiency in a law was enough to surpass most high-rankers.

This, he was certain of, through debating with Sage Cang Tu and fighting against high-ranking servants.

Most high-rankers’ mastery of laws was also around ’Adept level.’

Understanding the ultimate truths of the universe with an individual’s power was extremely difficult.

"My classification of ranks is just like skills, Master level is not the limit, there are two more major ranks above it."

"However, a Master’s proficiency in a law represents a threshold."

"The threshold for condensing fragments of authority."
