My Talent Skill Mutated

The long-haired man explained.

”A monthly salary of one hundred thousand, plus one hundred Level 1 Spirit Pearls.” Chen Yu was stunned.

’The benefits are this good?’

The hundred-thousand salary was one thing, but a hundred Level 1 Spirit Pearls... that was worth far more.

Of course, money was important too!

The currency was universal across the Nine Realms of the Human Race.

But compared to Spirit Pearls, money was secondary. Under special circumstances, you couldn’t necessarily buy Spirit Pearls even if you had the money.

Spirit Pearls could rapidly increase one’s strength. Cultivating with and without Spirit Pearls were two completely different things.

Over time, the difference would become astonishingly large.

’These benefits... no wonder so many people envy the members of the Extraordinary Alliance,’ Chen Yu thought to himself.

”You don’t think all members get the same benefits as you, do you?” the long-haired man said, looking at Chen Yu.

”...”

He had, in fact, thought exactly that.

”Benefits are based on your ability level. The higher your ability, the better the benefits,” the long-haired man said.

Chen Yu nodded.

’That seems reasonable.’

The Extraordinary Realm had even stricter divisions.

Ability was the gap that defined the levels.

”There’s one more thing you need to remember. Within the Extraordinary Alliance, if you see someone with a silver alliance-issued badge, you need to be wary. Don’t trust them too easily.”

The long-haired man’s expression was serious as he looked at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu: ”?”

”Why is that?” Chen Yu asked, looking at the long-haired man in confusion.

Long-haired man: ”You should know that there are two factions within the Alliance, right?”

Chen Yu nodded.

Long-haired man: ”The silver badges represent the Western faction. Unless there are special circumstances requiring cooperation, you’ll have to use your own judgment at all other times.”

”If things are like this, won’t the Alliance eventually fall apart completely?” Chen Yu asked in surprise.

Long-haired man: ”It was formed as a coalition in the first place, so ’falling apart’ isn’t really the issue. We still stand together when facing the Alien Race.”

”...This relationship is really complicated,” Chen Yu sighed.

”That’s just the current situation for the Human Race. Nothing is ever completely unified. Even the teeth and tongue sometimes fight,” the long-haired man said lightly.

Chen Yu fell silent.

’He’s not wrong. That’s just how reality is.’

However, under the immense pressure of the threat from the Alien Race, the Human Race had no choice but to unite.

There were divisions and conflicts, but on one point, they still stood on the same side: when facing the Alien Race.

This factional split only existed internally.

But the Divine Authority Council and the Pantheon Sect were different.

They were born human, yet they colluded with the Alien Race.

They were the true ”traitors to the Human Race”!

”You are now a Level 1 member of the Alliance, which is a basic member. You’ll be promoted later,” the long-haired man said to Chen Yu.

”Level 1... what’s the highest level for a member?” Chen Yu asked.

”Nine levels. It’s not determined by strength, but by contributions to the Alliance. For example, completing missions issued by the Alliance and reaching the required contribution level will get you promoted.”

”Of course, the higher the level, the stronger most members at that level will be.”

”As your level increases, so do your privileges. You’ll gain power beyond your imagination,” the long-haired man said, glancing at him.

”I see...” Chen Yu nodded. Based on the long-haired man’s description, he was starting to get a clear picture of the Alliance’s internal structure.

”Sir, what level are you?” Chen Yu asked the long-haired man.

”Level 6.”

The long-haired man said calmly.

”Level 6... Then what level of strength does a Level 9 member have?!” Chen Yu was amazed.

The long-haired man was very strong. Although Chen Yu didn’t know exactly how strong, he was certain the man was at least at the level of an Eighth-level Martial Artist.

And with that kind of strength, he was only a Level 6 member.

So what would a Level 9 be?

”Under normal circumstances, even a Ninth-level Martial Artist can only reach the rank of a Level 8 member at most,” the long-haired man said.

”?”

”A Ninth-level Martial Artist can’t even reach Level 9 membership?” Chen Yu looked at the long-haired man.

”Mm, they can’t. Because only by becoming a True God can one become a Level 9 member, the very top of the Alliance,”

At this point, the Dean chimed in.

”...Achieving the status of a True God... the difficulty of that is truly insane.”

Chen Yu clicked his tongue.

A True God Level being was already a Divine Level lifeform.

They could go anywhere in the starry cosmos.

”If you can become a True God in the future, your member level will automatically be upgraded to the highest rank, Level 9,” the Dean said, smiling at him.

Chen Yu smiled.

Becoming a True God felt too far away.

An S-class Ability User had the potential to become a True God, but it was just potential. Their chances were greater than other Awakened and ordinary Martial Artists, but it didn’t mean every S-class Ability User was guaranteed to become a True God.

They simply had greater potential, that’s all.

A True God was the foundation of a race, and the dividing line that determined whether a race could become a powerful one in the universe.

Without a True God, even if a civilization’s technology was advanced, it would be nothing more than a flash in the pan on a cosmic scale.

A single True God could destroy a world. Technology might be able to resist, but only resist. It might stop the first attack, but not the second.

Besides, for a race to become a powerful one in the universe, their technological civilization wouldn’t be a pushover either.

The power of a True God, capable of destroying worlds, is the foundation. Technology is merely supplementary!

Without becoming a powerful race in the universe, one wouldn’t even have the time to develop a technological civilization.

If an Alien Race discovered you, would they give you time to grow?

In your dreams!

”How many Level 9 members does the Extraordinary Alliance have?” Chen Yu asked curiously.

”That’s top secret. You’ll find out when you become a Level 9 member. Even I don’t know,” the long-haired man replied.

”...”

’A Level 6 member doesn’t even know?’

Chen Yu blinked, a little skeptical, but since the man had put it that way, he naturally couldn’t ask again.

...

Over an hour later, Chen Yu walked out of the Dean’s office.

In his hand, he held the palm-sized Alliance badge.

The Alliance badge wasn’t just a symbol of identity; it also had other functions.

For instance, its communication function worked anywhere in the Nine Realms of the Human Race. Moreover, in the starry cosmos, it could even perform quantum communication over a distance of up to ten light-years.

At the same time, the Alliance badge allowed one to log into the Alliance’s internal Extraordinary Network.

There, one could learn about news and other information from the Nine Realms and even the Stellar Battlefield.

The Alliance badge was bound to an individual’s identity. If an outsider took it, they wouldn’t be able to log in, because logging in required the owner’s personal biometric authentication.

”Congratulations.” As Chen Yu reached the elevators, a voice suddenly called out. He turned to look.
