goes without saying that you’re a very integral part of the sect!” Wohlricht said before rifying, “While


    it’s true that we are a middle–ss first–tier sect, the gap between us and the upper–ss first–tier


    sects is so huge that it bes extremely challenging to bridge that gap. The number of royal saints in


    our sert is far less than the other sects, and let’s not even get started on the attainment level of our


    royal saints. We don’t have enough level seven or level eight royal saints topare ourselves to


    them. This difference exists because their sect has a fourth–grade medium–rank alchemist. The


    strongest of the upper–ss first–tier sects, the Horizon Sect, even has a fourth–grade high–rank


    alchemist.”


    Wahlricht then took a breather before adding, “Middle–ss first–tier sects like usck even a fourth–


    grade medium–rank alchemist. Most of them only have fourth–grade low–rank alchemists, and even


    that bodes well for their sect.”


    “I never knew that the gap between a middle–ss first–tier sect and an upper–ss first–tier sect is


    so huge. I thought the difference was minor.” Severin finally understood why Wubiricht thought twice


    about letting him enter the Paradise Secret Realm after learning about his true alchemical prowess.


    With a smile, Severin reassured Wahlricht, “Don’t worry, I’ll be careful, and I won’t let you down.”


    Wuhlricht nodded. “Let’s continue then.”


    Sofia and Diane swiftly picked their weapon of choice. Due to the elder’s previous objection when


    She chose a seventh- grade weapon, Sofia and Diane chose weapons that were one grade lower.


    Nevertheless, their sixth–grade weapons were still very remarkable.


    Selene then asked, “What about me? Is my attainment level too low for me to choose a high–level


    weapon?”


    Wuhiricht smiled and offered, “Allow me to select a first–grade spiritual weapon for you, Selene. I have


    here a short sword that pairs excellently with your current level of attainment. It’s not overly heavy, and


    you’ll find it veryfortable to wield.”


    Selene’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she thanked him. “Thank you, sir.”


    Wuhlricht promptly picked out a short sword for Selene. The group then proceeded to move on to the


    third floor to choose abat technique.


    Once they had all made their choices, Wuhlricht excused himself while Severin and his family made


    their way back to their residence. Upon their return, they were surprised to see several disciples


    kneeling on the ground with thorny vines wrapped


    around their torsos


    Severin looked at the people and asked puzzlingly, “My seniors! What is going on here?” He


    recognized those individuals as members of the patrol team who had intercepted them when they


    arrived at the sect yesterday. They seemed to havee over to apologize after learning of Severin’s


    true status, fearing that Severin might not take too kindly to them in the future.

    “We apologize for our mistakes, Elder Severin! Please don’t poke fun at us! We do not deserve to be


    addressed as ‘senior‘ by you. Rather, we should be referring to you as “elder‘ or ‘senior‘ instead, Rano


    said with a woeful expression. He had been under the mistaken impression that Severin held a grudge


    against them for their previous behavior and was deliberately calling them ‘seniors‘ to rub it in.
