Diona subconsciously took a step back the moment she realized that the old man before her could squash her like a bug if he willed.
But that didn't mean her rank was something to scoff at.
At only twenty-three years old, she had reached Rank 7 Beastmaster. In her generation, most people were still stuck at Rank 5 or Rank 6 of their respective professions, so her pace could already be considered fast.
But how could she compare to Lex, a Rank 8 Prism Knight?
Half a step more, and he'd be a Rank 9 Powerhouse. At that level, only Paragons would be above him.
For most people, Rank 9 was the final destination of their journey, but Lex's potential surpassed that. Despite his current rank, he was one of the three beings who stood a chance in winning a battle against a Paragon. Not to mention, he had already proven that.
