Why is Background Character the Strongest Now?

Power system 

In this world, strength comes from one thing—your Core.

Everyone forms a Core when they begin their path as a cultivator. Your Core decides:

• How fast you can grow.

• How far you can go in cultivation.

⸻

🔹 Core Grades (Weakest to Strongest):

1. F-Rank Core

2. E-Rank Core

3. D-Rank Core

4. C-Rank Core

5. B-Rank Core

6. A-Rank Core – Very rare

7. S-Rank Core – Legendary

8. Mythical Core – Almost never seen

⸻

🧭 How Core Grade Affects Cultivation:

• F to D Rank Cores → Can reach up to Rank 4

• C to B Rank Cores → Can reach up to Rank 8

• A and S Rank Cores → Can reach Rank 9 or beyond

🔸 Most people have D or E-Rank cores.

🔸 A-Rank Cores are extremely rare—only high council members have them.

🔸 No one had an S-Rank Core in thousands of years—

• Basic Spells – For Rank 1 and 2

• Intermediate Spells – For Rank 3 and 4

• Advanced Spells – For Rank 5 and 6

🗡️ Weapon Skill Levels (Sword, Spear, etc.):

• Basic Style – Beginners

• Intermediate Style – Solid skill

• Advanced Style – Elite level

• Highest Style – True mastery

💡 Ezra Celestrian has mastered 70% of the Advanced Sword Style—an extremely high level for his current stage.

🏺 Artifact Grades:

Artifacts are magical weapons or tools used by cultivators.

• Rank 1 to Rank 8 Artifacts exist

• Rank 9 Artifacts do not exist yet (too hard to make)

The stronger your core and rank, the stronger artifact you can use.

🔐 Summary for New Readers:

• Core = Talent & Growth Speed

• Rank = Current Power Level

• Magic & Weapons = What You Can Do

• Artifacts = Gear that helps you fight

Some are born with stronger Cores.

But only those with willpower and effort can rise to the top.
