Assessment

Guilds were a major feature of Thousand Stars Immortal City.

Artifact Refiners had their Artifact Refiners' Guilds, Talisman Masters had their Talisman Masters' Guilds, Array Masters had their Array Masters' Guilds...

Even spirit plant farmers had guilds belonging to their own professions.

They were equivalent to the trade unions of Wang Chen's Previous Life. Industry professionals could apply to join and obtain the corresponding professional certification through examinations.

Wang Chen wanted to open an equipment shop to accumulate capital. He could certainly do so without joining the Artifact Refiners' Guild or obtaining professional certification; there would be no obstacles whatsoever.

But if his storefront did not display an Artifact Refiner's professional badge, he could forget about customers coming to his door on their own.

That was because shops in Thousand Stars Immortal City, whether they sold weapons and equipment, Talismans and Pills, or Spirit Rice and Spiritual Tea, basically used professional badges to adorn their storefronts and attest to their own strength.

And they often displayed more than one!

As the owner of a newly opened little shop, how could Wang Chen compete with others if he had nothing at all?

In Thousand Stars Immortal City, this City of Merchants, even the fragrance of wine feared a deep alley!

The main headquarters of the Artifact Refiners' Guild was located in the Si Qun area.

In fact, the vast majority of guilds were gathered here. The dense clusters of buildings, each several dozen stories high, along with the gold, silver, and bronze badges embedded in their facades, naturally inspired a sense of awe.

Standing here, Wang Chen felt as if he had arrived in the downtown district of a city from his Previous Life.

And the Artifact Refiners' Guild headquarters was easy to find—the tallest and most imposing building was it.
