“High-level civilizations are what we often refer to as alien civilizations!”
The old master looked at everyone and asked, “You don’t have much concept of star domains and civilization levels, do you?”
Seeing the confused expressions on their faces, he continued, “The universe we live in is composed of countless stars. These stars are distributed throughout the universe according to certain patterns, forming different star domains.”
“These star domains are divided into nine levels based on their scale and energy, with the first level being the lowest and the ninth level being the highest.”
“Additionally, most high-level star domains contain lower-level star domains of varying levels.”
“For example, a ninth-level star domain might include hundreds or thousands of eighth-level star domains, and within one of those eighth-level star domains, there could be many seventh or sixth-level star domains.”
“Of course, some high-level star domains only contain stars and do not have lower-level star domains.”
“Old master, what level is the star domain we are currently in?” Judge asked.
“First level!” the old master responded.
“Does it have a name?” Judge pursued.
“Yes!” the old master nodded. “The star domain we are in is called the Akabuchi Star Domain!”
“Akabuchi Star Domain?” Everyone was taken aback.
As they spoke, the name ‘Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce’ flashed through their minds.
As the name suggests, this chamber of commerce seems quite remarkable!
A chamber of commerce named after a star domain can’t be simple.
“Yes!” the old master nodded and added, “Although the Akabuchi Star Domain is only a first-level star domain, it still contains numerous stars!”
“Old master, what is the concept of civilization levels?” Casey asked.
“Civilization levels, like star domains, are divided into nine levels, from level one to level nine, with level one being the lowest and level nine being the highest,” the old master responded.
“For a civilization on a star to be classified at a certain level, there must be life forms on that star; otherwise, discussing civilization is meaningless.”
“And by life forms, I mean all living things, such as humans, beasts, demons, elves, and so on.”
“Old master, how exactly are civilization levels divided?” Felicia asked.
“It’s a bit complicated!” The old master put down his teacup and began to explain.
“The main indicators are the development level of the star and how well its life forms can utilize the energy of heaven and earth.”
“I don’t quite understand!” Harleen shook her head.
Casey and others also looked puzzled.
“It is indeed a bit complex!” The old master paused before giving a detailed explanation.
It took him half an hour to roughly explain it.
After listening to the old master’s explanation, everyone had a preliminary understanding of civilization levels.
Of course, it was just a preliminary understanding!
“Old master, what level is our planet’s civilization? It can’t be just a level-one civilization, right?” Frostblade asked.
“Strictly speaking, it’s not even a level-one civilization!” The old master shrugged.
“Because even in a level-one civilization, life forms can freely utilize all natural resources on their star.”
“In this regard alone, we fall far short!”
“However, since there is no concept of a zero-level civilization, we can temporarily consider our star as a level-one civilization.”
“…” Hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback.
So, we’re not even considered a level-one civilization!
“Old master, those forces you mentioned earlier should all belong to the Akabuchi Star Domain, right? What civilization levels are they from?” Amber asked.
“Those forces indeed belong to the Akabuchi Star Domain!” The old master nodded.
“But they are one level higher than us; they are considered level-two civilizations!”
“Old master, are there any level-three civilizations in the Akabuchi Star Domain?” Azure Dragon asked.
“Yes!” The old master nodded. “The highest civilization level in the Akabuchi Star Domain is found in Akabuchi City, where Akabuchi Star Palace is located. It is a level-three civilization!”
“Akabuchi Star Palace?” Casey and others were slightly taken aback.
A few days ago, they had heard Billy mention Akabuchi Star Palace.
According to Billy, the Ancestor of the Ravenwood family had told him that if he ever had the chance to go to Akabuchi Star Palace, he should look for someone named Kymani Vasquez.
“Yes!” The old master continued to nod.
“Akabuchi Star Palace is to the Akabuchi Star Domain what City Lord’s Mansion is to Sky City.”
“It is the absolute ruler of the Akabuchi Star Domain and the rule-maker of this star domain.”
“I see,” everyone was once again taken aback.
“Old master, can you tell us about the various forces in the Akabuchi Star Domain?” Night Orchid asked.
“In the Akabuchi Star Domain, although there are many forces, only four are truly powerful!” The old master nodded.
“Which four?” Judge asked.
“The ones you mentioned earlier: Canyon View Institute, Holy Heaven Sect, Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce, and Domain Lord’s Mansion Akabuchi Star Palace!” The old master responded again.
“Old master, among these four forces, which one is relatively the strongest?” Vermilion Bird asked.
“It must be Akabuchi Star Palace!” The old master responded. “Holy Heaven Sect and Canyon View Institute are about equal in strength.”
“Of course, after that battle a few days ago, Holy Heaven Sect suffered significant losses and should now be weaker than Canyon View Institute.”
“What about Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce?” Vermilion Bird pursued.
“I’m not too sure about that!” The old master shook his head. “Very few people know the true strength of Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce!”
“So mysterious!” Vermilion Bird was taken aback.
“Old master, do you know about Canyon View Institute?” At this moment, Billy looked at the old master and asked.
Harleen and Ivy were at Canyon View Institute; naturally, he was most concerned about its situation.
“I don’t know too many details!” The old master shook his head and added.
“It is said that Canyon View Institute was founded thousands of years ago by an unparalleled strongman with the aim of cultivating more powerful talents for the Akabuchi Star Domain!”
“The institute’s development indeed went as that strongman wished; at least half of the talents who emerged from the Akabuchi Star Domain came from Canyon View Institute!”
At this point, he turned to Billy.
“By the way, didn’t that young lady from Akabuchi Star Domain take a liking to you? If you want to know more about Akabuchi Star Domain, you can ask her; she knows more than I do.”
Cough!
Billy choked.
The old master! What does he mean by ‘she took a liking to him’? They barely knew each other!
“Did I say something wrong?” The old master said seriously. “If she didn’t like you, why would she help you multiple times?”
“…” Billy’s mouth twitched.
Night Orchid and Frostblade smiled slightly.
“Old master, what kind of organization is Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce?” Casey diverted attention away from Billy.
