Divine Clerk Zhang knew that, of course, but there was nothing he could do. Gu Junjie and the others had no Heavenly Court Bronze Talismans, so Tang Changsheng could not contact them even if he wanted to.
"Don't worry. You'll have support!" Divine Clerk Zhang said calmly. "The Divine Lord has just authorized a temporary increase in your clearance, raising your Bronze Talisman to a Silver Talisman. I can also grant you the highest level of access available to a Silver Talisman..."
As he spoke, he picked up a divine seal. A beam of light shot from it into the Heavenly Court Talisman.
The Bronze Talisman absorbed the power and began to glow. Countless symbols flowed across its surface, rearranging themselves until it became a new talisman that shone with silver light. Tang Changsheng immediately understood the authority it now carried!
The Heavenly Court Bronze Talisman was the lowest-grade talisman. It seemed capable only of passively receiving information or power.
The Heavenly Court Silver Talisman granted far greater authority!
Every elite disciple of the Immortal Sects had a Heavenly Court Bronze Talisman. It was nothing rare, rather like graduating from a military academy with at least a junior officer's rank.
A Heavenly Court Silver Talisman, on the other hand, was reserved for officers of field grade or above. That was the difference.
By rights, Tang Changsheng's achievements fell far short of earning a Heavenly Court Silver Talisman. But to make his work easier, they had raised his clearance for now. The cost would be deducted when his Merit Points were tallied later.
All of this had happened within his consciousness. To an outsider, Tang Changsheng had merely stared into space for a moment.
Even without anyone else present, Tang Changsheng was certain that no more than five minutes had passed
