King of Torch
earlier he said "the martial artists in the East were ranked into heaven, earth, black, and yellow ones" and yet this sort of ranking has not been mentioned once since then, so far it's gold, silver, diamond etc, and the warlord rank that has been mentioned many times.
I just realized, couldn't he have gone to the evaluation centre, said that he had a light ability, and to awaken it he needed a tree of light, but the better the quality the stronger the ability. that way they might have given him a subsidy, discount, or even gotten him sth like a holy tree leaf for free.
