"Huh? When did I get promoted to Bronze Tier?"
After completing his trip to Demon World Village, Cheng Tian returned to his Personal Space and habitually reviewed his space message log, checking for omissions. That was when he saw the notice that he had been promoted from Black Iron Tier to Bronze Tier.
Looking at the records, Cheng Tian guessed that the notification had popped up while he had been feeling down, so he had failed to notice it.
He did not know whether advancing from Black Iron to Bronze was tied solely to a hidden rating, or whether he had already met the relevant requirements. In any case, he had somehow become Bronze Tier without even realizing it.
After asking around, he discovered that Eileen had also reached Bronze Tier. Cheng Tian guessed that "Extreme Breakthrough" was the key factor in advancing to Bronze Tier.
Advancing from Black Iron to Bronze also meant more player permissions and benefits. The most important was gaining access to Main Dungeon tags twenty-four hours in advance, increasing from one tag to two.
That was a genuinely massive improvement!
With only one tag, there were countless possibilities that could fit. But with two tags cross-referencing each other, the efficiency of finding information on the corresponding game dungeon would rise dramatically, allowing for much more preparation in advance.
However, Cheng Tian quickly put that thought aside. Using his permissions to look into it, he discovered that starting from Bronze Tier and B-rank Dungeons, the proportion of mixed-theme dungeons would gradually increase.
If the Fragment Erosion of a MapleStory dungeon into a Dino Crisis Dungeon had previously been an exceptionally rare event, then such situations would account for thirty percent, or even fifty percent, in the future.
Of course, that was Cheng Tian's own conclusion. Other
