The World Referee Council.
This place was a small, narrow roomââ because normally no one would be here to work anyways.
But for the most part, this was a crucial department of the 900 million World Layers alliance, a place that only Lord-class Combatants can join.
Because of that, after careful consideration, the upper brass decided to extend the inside of the room a little bit, leaving enough space to put down a long, wide table.
ââwith this table, at least the people of the department could sit around to play cards and socialize a bit in their workplace.
Chen Wang threw his cards on the table, stood up, and stretched his back.
âI didnât win or lose anything, what about you guys?â he asked.
âBullshit, you clearly won the most!â
One of his playmates, a bear, angrily roared.
âForget it, do people like us really have to be petty over such minor wins and losses?â a person completely hidden inside a black cloak spoke.
âThen again, Chen Wang went out for some business earlier and only started to win when he came backâ a mechanical arm spoke.
âWhere did you go?â the bear couldnât help but ask.
âBarryâs young protĂ©gĂ© got into some trouble, so I did him a favor, but actually got a bit of profit out of itâ Chen Wang grinned.
Seeing everyone interested, Chen Wang told them.
âBarryâs protĂ©gĂ©? I remember him, Gu Qing Shan, right?â the bear thought about it for a few moments.
âAh, him, Iâve also met him, quite the good sword user seed. Heâll probably be quite the merciless guy in the future as wellâ the mechanical arm commented.
âI heard some rumors about him having a close relationship with the Bramble Bird Empressâ the person hidden by a robe spoke.
âTch, women, always gossipingââ- Iâm going first, I want no part of thisâ the mechanical arm replied.
âWait, itâs my treat today, you can go after we eatâ Chen Wang called out.
âThatâs fineâ
Chen Wang, the bear, the robed person, the mechanical arm all stood up to leave the room.
They opened the door.

Right away, all sorts of noises and commotion could be heard from the office the size of a football field across from theirs.
Countless beings of different shapes and sizes filled that office.
They were all shouting, wanting to convey what they needed to as soon as possible.
The four of them went quiet.
âTch, canât the Profession Encyclopedia Department be a bit less noisy? Weâre lucky we soundproofed our officeâ Chen Wang complained.
âYou know how they are, there are so many new Professions being discovered every day, their book is always full, and they also have to keep an eye on how those Professions grow and arrange for their qualifications and suchâ the bear spoke.
âIâm having a headache just hearing that almost makes me want to destroy a few worlds to calm back downâ the robed person commented.
âTrue, but fortunately, we donât have to do such workâ the mechanical arm sighed.
âIn hindsight, Barry is the real smart guy here, always has a bad reputation to his name, so much so that no department wants to hire him, afraid that heâll be surrounded by debtors without a way to do this jobâ Chen Wang also sighed.
âLetâs goâ the bear spoke.
After just a few steps, Chen Wang was surprised.
âWhat is it?â the robed person asked.
âThat woman is Gu Qing Shanâs master, why is she hereââ I shouldâve already arranged everything properly with that matterâ Chen Wang wondered.
While he said that, Xie Dao Ling had already seen Chen Wang.
She came forward without hesitation and greeted him: âSir Chen Wang, good to see you awayâ
âWhy are you at the Referee Council? Did something go wrong with the matter from before?â Chen Wang asked doubtfully.
âNo, Iâm bringing some novices to the Profession Committee to enter the novice qualification test for entering the Strife Zones for cultivatorsâ Xie Dao Ling explained.
âThe novice qualification? So Gu Qing Shan is going to enter the Strife Zones huh?â
âHe isâ
Xie Dao Ling swung her sleeves to release Gu Qing Shan and the other two.
âAh? Chen Wang? Big Bear? Yun Ji and Darkfire as well?â Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
âYoâ
âHey, bratâ
âStill handsome as always, little brother, let big sis invite you for a meal next timeâ
âQing Shan, howâs it been?â
The four greeted him.
The robed person even pulled back her hood to reveal her beauty.
Turns out she was Yun Ji, a female Lord-class Combatant.
âIâm sorry, weâre here for some business, so if you guys have work to do, we wonât bother youâ Gu Qing Shan spoke politely.
Chen Wang looked at the group and spoke: âItâs fine, weâll just come in to watch for a bitâ
âMy fighting abilities arenât anything for you to watch thoughâ Gu Qing Shan spoke deprecatingly.

After joining the Justice Iron Fist Club, he got to learn quite a few basic knowledge regarding the infinite worlds.
To prevent casualties as well as preserving overall power for mankind as a whole, there wasnât a need to directly fight for the qualification test among humans.
The Strife Zones qualification test was actually done through a large-scale Mystic-type magic in conjunction with technology to help the recording and screening process.
Chen Wang grinned: âIâm just afraid you wonât be clear about a few things and might lose your spotâ
âThatâs right, back then Barry wanted to go into the Strife Zones; but no matter how many times he took the test for the Boxer Profession, he couldnât get the quotaâ Yun Ji chuckled.
Everyone exchanged glances and laughed out loud.
âWhat happened to him?â Gu Qing Shan couldnât help but ask.
âHis Profession was that of a Boxer, but during the tests, he didnât know he had to wear boxing gloves, so the test magic recognized him as not being in a state of battle, resulting in his battle score was only 30% of what it actually was, being at the very bottom of the barrelâ the mechanical arm called Darkfire chuckled.
ââŠno one told him at all?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
âThe boxers were all competitors, why would they do that?â
âNot to mention, that man-child Barry was never someone patient enough to listen to the rules, he always went straight into the test every timeâ
âThatâs why it wasnât until he hit a growth spurt and was able to beat everyone else with just 30% of his strength that he qualifiedâ
âHis sister Kitty was much different, she passed right away on her first timeâ
âYeah, now that you mention it, I only knew her true strength during the last warâ
âŠ
Gu Qing Shan looked at the 4 talkative Lords and understood.
They were worried he might make some mistakes during the qualification.
Bai Hua Fairy also noticed this and took the opportunity to ask something she was wondering: âSir Chen Wang, are Lords such as yourself allotted any quotas?â
âYouâre asking about the Strife Zone quotas, right? Ahaha, of course not, otherwise if someone enters without being strong enough, wouldnât they just be heading to their own deaths?â
Big Bear added: âNot to mention, it isnât as simple for humans as it is for other species like us, there are easily several ten thousand Professions existing at once, so thereâs no way we would let a wizard go and compete for a quota with a bunch of boxersâ
Darkfire continued: âIf this wizard happens to actually steal a quota this way, then when they meet a boxer who knows about this in the Strife Zones and kill him out of spite, then it wouldâve been awkwardâ
They were all grinning as they discussed this as if they were talking about something that already happened once before.
âThatâs why everything will depend on your own strength, this is the fairest method, and also a way to protect the weaker bunch. After all, too many people die in the Strife Zones every day, weaklings wonât be able to surviveâââ as long as they arenât idiots, no one would come to the Strife Zones just to die because theyâre not strong enoughâ
Hearing that Xie Dao Ling was relieved.
âI had thought that the qualification would be the same as the cultivation alliance, requiring relations for everything. If itâs a fair fight, then there wonât be any trouble for my discipleâ she smiled and spoke.
While they were talking, the group had reached the Profession Committee.
