She enabled the non-combat class system , also known as the craftsman class system . Thanks to her it is possible to gain levels and improve classes without having to risk your life in constant battle . Of course , the craftsmen need to still arduously improve and practice their craft to gain cosmic energy and levels . -
What about you? - Zac asked .
It is generally a bit rude to ask someone about their class , but it doesn’t matter in this case . My class is simply Teacher , an F-Ranked Common class . My skills pertain to knowledge retention and dissemination . I also get ocular skills that can help me see cosmic energy circulation in others so I can guide students’ cultivation practice . I even get some defensive spells to protect myself and my students , but no offensive ones . And I am actually gaining Cosmic Energy as I am explaining these things to you , as I am fulfilling the purpose of my class . -
Are there upgrade paths for the Teacher class as well? -
Any class has the potential to reach the peak of power , non-combat classes included . There are some restrictions in general when it comes to class upgrades . We explained some of it when we discussed Heritages earlier , but this is a good point to go over class upgrades . - Alyn said , swiftly jumping in between subjects .
The first class upgrade is at level 75 . There are generally three things that are needed to upgrade to E-Grade . Race , Dao , and Achievements . Your race needs to be E-class , you need to have grasped at least one Dao-seed and your actions must enable the class . Some classes have even more restrictions , such as status restrictions or Title-requirements , but those are exceptions rather than the rule . Classes with higher Rarity almost always have more stringent requirements in Dao and Achievments .
If you don’t fulfill all three requirements you will not be able to upgrade your class and progress from level 75 . It is therefore known as the first bottleneck . Furthermore , many are able to upgrade their class but still chose to stay down there , even until the day they die . -
Why would they not upgrade if they are able to? - Zac asked confused . There seemed to be only upsides to upgrading and becoming stronger .
There are a few reasons people stay on at F-class , at least for a bit . First , there are certain trials and titles that are only accessible before advancing . The Tower of Eternity is one such example . The second , and more important reason is that people desperately try to gain access to a better class - Alyn said .
What do you mean? - Zac already felt pretty happy getting a Rare class , but if it could increase the rarity even further when upgrading to the next tier , that would obviously be better . The tower thing sounded interesting as well , but one thing at a time .
Achievements is the third requirement , and the most diffuse . Only with a full heritage can you know exactly what you need to do to be able to gain a class . But examples are to fight in wars , to have killed enough enemies , to have seen and explored certain areas . Generally to have grown as a being and have accomplished things above the norm .
Warriors do not only wait to get a better class in order to gain better skills and attribute points , they do it since they do not want to cut off their path of cultivation . There is another minimum requirement for class advancement that is related to class rarity . An F-ranked class can be any rarity and still gain an upgrade . But an E-ranked class need to be at least Uncommon ranked to be able to advance further . So if you pick an E-ranked common class , then your path of cultivation will end at E-rank , no matter how deep your insight of the Dao is or how grand your achievements are .
And with every stage , the requirement increase one step . A D-Ranker needs to have at least a Rare class , a C-Ranker at least an Epic one and so on . There is an endless amount of individuals with greater ambition than talent that throw themselves into perilous situations to gain achievements in hope of gaining a better option for a class . Most die , but some succeed . Of course , the Fruit of Ascension you ate is a shortcut in a sense . - Alyn stated with some obvious desire in her eyes as she mentioned the fruit .
What do the Fruits I ate have to do with class options? - Zac asked confused . He thought they were only good for upgrading his Race , and that was why they were named after Ascension .
Ogras didn’t tell you? - Alyn asked surprised . She hesitated a long while before she seemed to have come to a decision . - Well , this part you didn’t hear from me then . The main goal of a Fruit of Ascension isn’t improving your Race , although it is a good time-saving effect for most people , cultivators included . It is the effect it has on your class upgrades . It’s only a D-ranked treasure , so it’s effect is limited , but essentially it improves your choices when you upgrade your class .
