An Understated Dominance By Marina Vittori Chapter 736-“This is a joke, right, sir? I-it isn’t proper to promote him to an elder when he just joined the group!
“He’s right, Dr. Watkins. This is the first time there’s been an exception like this. That’s not normal!
“Sir, we know you favor talented individuals, but I’m afraid others might be unhappy with your decision.”
The elders and many disciples of the Stoneray Order were upset when they heard that Linden would promote Dustin to elder, which was only one rank below the assistant leader.
Disciples usually started as junior disciples before becoming intermediate disciples. Then, they would be promoted to senior disciples. As senior disciples, if they made any major contributions, they would be promoted to upper disciples.
Upper disciples were then categorized into three classes-upper third, upper second, and upper first. Only upper first disciples had a chance of being promoted to elder.
Getting promoted to a higher rank took years, so for a junior disciple to climb the ranks and become an elder would take at least a few decades. However, Dustin was now offered to take the top spot for free, pissing many people off.
