Larry Wilson was quite amiable and quickly hit it off with Peter Brown; they chatted about many things, and Peter learned some details about Larry’s life. Larry was the scion of a wealthy family and had received considerable resources growing up, facilitating his rapid ascent in power levels. By the age of fifteen, he had already reached the Warrior Level. However, his family fell into decline, and after being repeatedly set up and persecuted, his young master’s temperament led to several downgrades, causing him to fall back to the Warrior Level time and again.

"Brother Larry, how exactly do you upgrade?" Peter still found some parts of the process very confusing.

"Actually, for those below the Martial Master Level, upgrading isn’t too difficult. As long as you meet three conditions, you can upgrade. It gets more complicated above the Martial Master Level, and I’m not too clear on that."

"Can you just tell me about the conditions for upgrading below the Martial Master Level?" What Peter was most eager to find out was how to advance from Warrior to Martial Artist.

Larry Wilson glanced at Peter and said, "What you really want to know is how to upgrade from Warrior to Martial Artist, right?"

Peter nodded and replied, "If we don’t upgrade, we’re as good as dead."

Smiling, Larry explained, "Actually, if you have money, going from Warrior to Martial Artist really isn’t a big deal. Let me tell you, there are three conditions. First, you must cultivate. Only when the energy inside your body reaches the level needed for upgrading will you have completed the Cultivation aspect. You should have The Higher-Ups Stele for the Brain Domain by now. If you silently contemplate and check your upgrade conditions, that stele will display them."

Really?

Peter hurriedly did as instructed, and indeed, he saw some changes on the stele. There were three vertical scale-like bars on it, and at first glance, they were all empty.
