According to the information available in Armhands, which was not little, let alone bad, considering it was an alien organization, Zocarro was an A+ world.
What did that mean? Well, it was an excellent rating.
The world's classification, most common in this galaxy, took into account many factors, from the presence of living beings to the existence of cultivable energy on the universe's planets.
A planet with no conditions for the development of life and no energy that could be absorbed was considered the commonest type of world, classified as F.
After the F classification came E, followed by D and C, then B- and B+, up to A- and A+.
The Spiritual World should be a B- or B+ world, but Minos' staff wasn't sure yet, but it certainly wasn't below or above that.
As for the A+ worlds, they were good places to be born in the universe because they weren't the most powerful or dangerous places. Still, they had favorable enough conditions for one to seek the peak.
In worlds with this classification, a person could cultivate to the 12th stage with relative peace as long as they had talent, luck, resources, and time. Reaching the 13th stage would be as difficult or more difficult than reaching level 100 in the Spiritual world, but it wasn't impossible.
Panvuter should have an A- or A+ rating, but given the little information Minos had about that world, he couldn't say whether the one that had given rise to the Spiritual World was similar to or weaker than Zocarro.
In any case, A+ was not the pinnacle. Above that rank was S and then SS. According to Zocarro's information, this was the classification of the Upper Realm worlds, and one had to be at least a peak 13th-stage cultivator to enter one of them.
With this information, they now knew that it was possible but that they would have to work hard before thinking about returning.
Meanwhile, Minos also learned about where some of his companions had been taken. The Blue Field was an extreme place far from Examire, where the guild mined a special type of material.
The place was harsh, and those who went there would definitely have a hard time. But it wasn't the end of the world. Anyone with determination in that place had a good chance of overcoming their difficulties and eventually getting a place in Armhands, leaving aside their status as servants.
As for the Speckled Bear Wild, it was a place where Armhands could get useful resources for 10th and 11th-stage cultivators. The place wasn't as 'safe' as the headquarters for the Recruits, but it was much less bad than The Blue Field. Another good thing was that you didn't have to do anything special in such a forest region. After five years in such a place, they would return to this floating island to take the guild entrance test again.
It was very likely that the companions of the group that had been sent to the Speckled Bear Wild would return to the side of the others on their own. The only ones Minos had to worry about were the ones in The Blue Field, as they might stay there longer than the group of Recruits would need to improve their position within the guild.
There were ways for someone to get a servant out of The Blue Field, but it depended on getting a favor from a high-ranking member of the guild or even on that person being the high-ranking member.
At the very least, one would have to be a Senior Officer to even consider removing servants from The Blue Field!
With that in mind, Minos's goal was to become stronger as quickly as possible, to stop being a Recruit, and to gain enough standing in the guild to regain some of his freedom and rescue his companions.
None of this would be easy, as they weren't the only ones trying to improve within Armhands. There were already people of the same rank as them who had been trying to change positions for longer, while those in higher positions didn't want to lose their positions or had the same dilemma as the Recruits about moving to higher positions.
Some aliens were sociable and not difficult to talk to and maintain a friendly relationship with. But some beings in the wing where their group had started living a few days ago were quite competitive and difficult to deal with!
Thus began Minos' journey in such a headquarters!Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
