Space Mage is a profession that can only advance to a second-transitional version of itself, meaning that after a second transformation, a Space Mage is still a Space Mage, just prefixed with 'Second-Turn' for distinction.

This is similar to most Professionals, who can only become Second-Turn Warriors, Second-Turn Mages, and so on. Those who manage to advance to a rare Second-Transitional Profession are few and far between.

And like Lin Ye's Healer profession turning into a Holy Flame Priest for the second transformation, such a top-class profession is a unique existence in the entire world.

However, though both are original profession advancements, there is a significant difference.

Because others see better career paths but are unable to transition due to inadequate strength, they're left to do a second transformation in their original profession.

Whereas Space Mage is already a top-class path in the mage category, any other second-transitional rare profession is not even close in comparison.

So at least as a Space Mage, Lin Ye doesn't need to choose another career path for a second transformation, which fundamentally distinguishes him from those who can only advance within their profession.

Leaving the Professional Center, Lin Ye, wearing a mask, quickly blended into the bustling crowd.

It must be said, Shenzhen lives up to being a first-tier settlement, with the Professional Plaza greatly surpassing the fourth-tier settlement, Shan City.

Whether considering the size of the plaza or the professionals walking around, both quantity and quality are overwhelmingly superior to Shan City.

Thanks to the True Sight talent enhancement by Demon Eye, Lin Ye could casually scan and clearly see basic information such as names, professions, and levels of the people around him.

This was a stark contrast to Shan City, where it was common to see only Level 10-20s around, with Level 30s being rare, Level 40s hard to find, and Level 50s virtually nonexistent.

Here on the plaza, Level 30s and Level 40s were everywhere.

As for those Level 50 and above, they gathered in small groups.

There were even some Level 60 professionals walking among the crowd.

Lin Ye even saw one or two Level 70 experts...

Such Third-Turn Professionals, in Shan City, would be rulers of their domain, but in Shenzhen, they were just one of the masses.

Although their proportion remained rare among the crowd, they weren't the unreachable figures they were in Shan City, where ordinary people might never encounter one in a lifetime.

"Eh..."

Lin Ye spotted several familiar names among the crowd.

"It's Hook and the others."

Lin Ye instantly recognized those familiar names.

It was Hook, Zhao Xue Ming, and Li Feng, three friends with whom Lin Ye had completed several beginner Secret Realm runs back in Shan City.

Hook's brother was even Lin Ye's first guinea pig for testing the Holy Healing Technique.

That test triggered the phenomenon of 'Feathered Rebirth,' causing many to revere Lin Ye as the Child of Holy Light.

Seeing those three present, Lin Ye wasn't surprised.

It was quite ordinary, as they probably just reported to a university in Shenzhen this academic year.

Showing up in the Professional Plaza of Shenzhen wasn't odd either.

Naturally, Lin Ye had no intention of going over to greet them since the gap between them was immense now.

Even if Lin Ye wanted to gather a team to qualify for Secret Realm openings, he wouldn't consider someone like Hook and the others...

Their level was too low; a slight disturbance could easily take them out.

Having to clear Secret Realms and babysit was simply not worth it.

Thus, the three of them walked past Lin Ye, chatting and laughing, without realizing the person in front of them was Lin Ye.

As they brushed past, Lin Ye caught a bit of their conversation.

"The senior said Mr. Gongsun's new game offers lots of experience points. Why don't we give it a try?"

"Are we high enough level?"

"Apparently, the game makes levels irrelevant since the rules don't allow participants to act; it's all about leading forces."

"That sounds fun. If the rewards are good, we might as well try it."

Chatting, they passed Lin Ye by without even noticing he was right beside them.

Lin Ye sharply caught the essence of Hook and the others' conversation.

"Gongsun's new game?"

Lin Ye furrowed his brow, wondering if that guy was restless and seeking entertainment again?

Nevertheless, Lin Ye remained calm since he already obtained a Supreme Treasure from Gongsun's previous game and wasn't too intrigued by this 'new game.'

But now he noticed that from the lowest Level 10-20s to the Level 60-70s around him, everyone seemed to be discussing Gongsun's new game.

The span was indeed exaggerated.

This was equivalent to leaping straight from First Transformation to Third Transformation.

Clearly, Gongsun's new game had some heat...

The more this happened, the more suspicious Lin Ye grew.

Lin Ye ignored the game-related discussions as he walked through the crowd.

His primary task was to advance his Space Mage profession to a second transformation as quickly as possible, allowing both his professions to progress steadily and together.

Besides, delaying the Space Mage's second transformation was a waste of Lin Ye's 50% experience value.

However, just as Lin Ye planned to find a team for the Secret Realm, he suddenly had a feeling, looked up, and gazed ahead.

In the crowd was a young man in a formal suit, smiling and tipping his hat elegantly towards Lin Ye.

Lin Ye squinted his eyes and immediately recognized the man's identity.

"Truly relentless."

Lin Ye muttered a low curse and turned to leave.

He could now confirm that Gongsun's new game was specifically aimed at him.

The more it seemed this way, the less likely Lin Ye would respond to Gongsun's antics!

What's the matter now? Because he made off with a Supreme Treasure right in front of him?

Would he so clingingly persist?

Seeing Lin Ye react this way, Gongsun wasn't annoyed. Instead, he casually caught up with Lin Ye's pace.

"Do you really dislike me so much?"

Lin Ye did not respond, only quickened his steps.

"So cautious, aren't we…" Gongsun smiled, following Lin Ye at a leisurely pace.

Lin Ye remained silent.

"Alright, you win. How about this: if you play my new game, I promise to help you devise a rule unconditionally, at any time!" Gongsun said.

Lin Ye finally halted, looking at Gongsun in doubt.

"Are you serious?"

This offer genuinely tempted him.

No matter the danger, it correlates with the reward.

And this time, Gongsun's offer was one Lin Ye couldn't ignore.
