You basically have to prove your strength by defeating a top 10. Before kaiden wasn't a top 10 because he hadn't beaten any top 10 he was only considered top 50 or 20. But after he killed astra it's been stated that he'll be considered as top 10 that makes jiwoo aa top 10's disciple. But it also applies to other rankers. Unless they publicly show their strength to the world. They won't rank anywhere even if they're strong like the awakeners in Korea.
This is just how I understand it
Ahh, I see, I see. I forgot about Astra dying and the others considering Kaiden a potential top 10. Okie!
I feel like I should reread this cuz I'm slowly forgetting the early chapters and some other details about it. ╥﹏╥
I think with andrei's defeat, he's solidified his place in the top 10
What makes a top 10 a top 10? Isn't Kaiden basically at the skill level of a top 10 already? They keep referring to themselves as a top 10 and Kaiden as someone below a top 10 but Kaiden has already defeated Andrei who is a top 10. Shouldn't they open their eyes already and see that Kaiden is someone they should acknowledge as a top 10 already? Am I missing something here? And the fact that they feel threatened enough to take action against Kaiden.... I think that's saying something.
I'm confused here... what's their logic?
