"You're lucky to get this. Follow me."
Despite her sharp words,
the receptionist ultimately decided to complete her job and led Fang Ming.
Fang Ming thought to himself that the malice of heaven and earth had not yet reached a point where this person would disregard their duties.
The place they entered was a magnificent hall.
Within this grand hall, Fang Ming could feel that it was filled with spiritual energy.
The concentration of spiritual energy here was quite good—after all, it was the Sword Immortal Guild, and they had some standing.
Fang Ming scanned the hall and noticed that there were also some people undergoing trials within it.
These individuals carried flying swords with them. Fang Ming could tell at a glance that their swordsmanship seemed to be quite skilled, but whether they were Sword Immortals was uncertain.
The Sword Immortal profession was a type of profession, and the entry test involved experimenting with various sword techniques to assess their level.
Fang Ming observed these people undergoing their tests, pondering the experience, and already felt a sense of confidence.
Whether these people succeeded or failed their tests, they all offered sarcastic remarks to Fang Ming. The successful ones believed themselves to be superior, Sword Immortals, while viewing Fang Ming as a failure from their elevated position.
The unsuccessful ones, on the other hand, believed that since even they, who were so outstanding, had failed, Fang Ming certainly wouldn't succeed, and thus offered their sarcastic remarks.
Fang Ming observed all of this with a cold eye. His enemies were the malice of heaven and earth, not these people.
Soon, it was Fang Ming's turn to step up. .oγg
Just as the receptionist was about to sneer mockingly, she was surprised to find that Fang Ming had merely channeled a surge of energy into his flying sword, causing it to erupt with immense speed. The sword then rapidly attacked repeatedly in the air.
The receptionist was startled.
The continuous aerial attacks, while appearing very flashy, were actually extremely threatening. This indicated that if Fang Ming wished, he could assassinate anyone at any time.
Even newly initiated Sword Immortals could not achieve this level. One would need to be at least level sixty, considered a mid-tier Sword Immortal professional, to accomplish such a feat.
Although mid-tier Sword Immortal professionals were only in the middle ranks among Sword Immortals, due to the high status, unique nature, and rarity of the profession, they were actually considered upper-class nobility in the Blue Sea Empire.
These were people the receptionist could not afford to offend.
Especially considering how young this youth was, achieving such a feat at such an age clearly indicated a boundless future, making him someone the receptionist absolutely could not offend.
The malice from heaven and earth directed at Fang Ming conflicted with the receptionist's own values regarding Sword Immortals.
Therefore, the receptionist, who had initially felt a degree of dislike towards Fang Ming, began to transform that dislike into regret and remorse.
She started to regret her own shortsightedness, her immediate mockery of such a young Sword Immortal without any provocation.
It was as if she had lost her mind!
Why had she acted that way? Why had she inexplicably offended a young man? Even if he had failed his test, facing him with kindness would not have harmed her interests!
It wasn't just the receptionist who was filled with endless regret; in the hall, others who had previously mocked Fang Ming also felt as if they had lost their minds and began to regret their past actions.
Fang Ming observed with a cold gaze.
He saw the malice almost completely dissipate after he displayed his strength.
Fang Ming confirmed that his visit to the Sword Immortal Guild was meaningful.
As long as he obtained a means to demonstrate his strength from the Sword Immortal Guild, he could ascend to a higher level of "endurance" and bear it for a longer period.
After Fang Ming had successfully passed various tests.
Fang Ming's Sword Immortal profession level was also assessed.
Having opened six spiritual meridians, cultivated his Qi Gong to the seventh layer, taken gene-enhancing potions, and being capable of flying with his sword, Fang Ming's Sword Immortal profession level was evaluated as equivalent to that of a level sixty-five expert.
Newly initiated Sword Immortals possessed a strength of level forty and could be called Junior Sword Immortals.
Those who reached level sixty could be called Intermediate Sword Immortals.
Fang Ming was currently assessed as an Intermediate Sword Immortal.
This level of strength was extraordinary. Among the Sword Immortals present who had passed their tests, most were only in their forties, with those in their fifties being a minority, considered seasoned veterans.
Fang Ming had not encountered a single Intermediate Sword Immortal among those participating in the tests that day.
"Here are your professional level badge and the robe exclusively for Intermediate Sword Immortals..."
The receptionist presented the means to prove Fang Ming's strength, which was also the purpose of his visit.
This was the credential of the Sword Immortal Guild.
Its credibility was undeniable.
By wearing the professional level badge, he could prove his strength of level sixty-five. Coupled with the robe of an Intermediate Sword Immortal, it was enough to make people fear him for his strength before they began to dislike him.
This would then offset the malice of heaven and earth.
After putting on the robe, Fang Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he could finally rest easy for a while.
From now on, he would have a sense of security in this world.
He no longer had to worry about powerful individuals acting to kill him—until the malice increased to a point where someone would disregard all opposition to attack a mid-tier Sword Immortal.
...
After the temporary dispelling of malice, Fang Ming found this world to be still very prosperous.
In this world with various unique characteristics, the Sword Immortal profession path alone was divided into Junior Sword Immortal, Intermediate Sword Immortal, Advanced Sword Immortal, and Supreme Sword Immortal.
Supreme Sword Immortals were beings above level one hundred, which, when converted to the Kyushu world's system, were equivalent to Nascent Soul stage experts.
Even Advanced Sword Immortals possessed the cultivation and strength of Daoist Master Dao Xuan from the Kyushu world.
If he could learn from the vast experience of these Sword Immortals, Fang Ming felt that his trip to this world would not have been in vain.
As for the God and Immortal professions, they were professions that started at level eighty-plus upon entry.
If he had the opportunity, Fang Ming also wanted to research how to cultivate such professions.
Because the Sword Immortal Guild had a long history and numerous inheritances, possessing many sword scriptures, Fang Ming, after becoming a member of the Sword Immortal Guild, browsed and read through its numerous sword scriptures, gaining experience and knowledge.
He felt that his skills and strength had greatly improved.
Externally, his assessment level rose from sixty-five to sixty-eight within just over ten days.
