This was also the reason why, for the longest time, so few people had focused their energy on the Goblin Slayer Extraordinary Profession—it was just too inefficient!
To be honest, Soron still wasn't satisfied with the current Goblin Slayer. Tier Two Upper was already its limit. The threshold to Tier Three was not something the meager power from the Goblin Slayer ritual could break through.
Why was Tier Three such a major hurdle for Extraordinary Professions?
Because Tier Three involved an evolution of one's fundamental life essence!
Strictly speaking, a Tier Three Transcendent was no longer the same species they were before. Compared to the simple accumulation of power in Tier One and Tier Two, the energy required for the Tier Three metamorphosis was astronomical. It had even reached a point where mere quantity was no longer the solution.
The simplest way to solve this problem was to introduce other variables, such as the one Agares had mentioned before—Evil Energy!
