"Annual rating, Seventh Sage B Plus, First place."
Nuwa smiled and announced the result, clapping to show her congratulations.
The other nine Sages remained silent. They knew the Heart of Numbers was absolutely impartial, yet instinctively they couldn't help but nurture a suspicion about the so-called achievements of the Seventh Sage.
The Sages were not naïve youths; they lacked any strong belief in protecting the human race. Becoming a Sage was merely a convenience for them to pursue their own interests.
Critically, Sages were unrestrained.
The Sages were also accustomed to using their Sage authority for personal gain, conducting their own affairs.
As for the missions released by Nuwa, the Sages tacitly performed a few tasks here and there to maintain balance.
The Heart of Numbers' evaluation standard was relative, taking the median value of all Sages to compute. As long as no one exerted too much effort, they could all easily get by.
