BREAKING NEWS!
In a surprising move, the Phoenix Systema Guild has announced that they will now be recruiting non-supernaturals, even though they are a supernaturals guild. This decision was made by the guild's founder, Cooper, who believes that normal humans have the potential to become powerful assets to the guild.
Traditionally, any Guild has only recruited individuals with supernatural abilities, but Cooper argues that this practice limits the guild's potential. "Just because someone doesn't have supernatural powers doesn't mean they can't be a valuable member of the team," he says.
The guild's recruitment ad has been met with mixed reactions, with some supernatural individuals expressing concern that non-supernaturals may not be able to keep up with the guild's rigorous training and missions. However, many non-supernaturals have shown enthusiasm for the opportunity to join a powerful guild and receive training in combat and other skills.
Only time will tell whether this bold move by the Phoenix Systema Guild will pay off.

The incredible achievement of Alexander Cooper sparked immense interest in the advertisement, and people were eager to join his guild. However, not all were convinced, as supernatural powers were not required for entry. Many shrugged it off as a mere attention-seeking ploy by the weakest Cooper, who was not as talented as his siblings.
Others saw it as a quick way to make money from a naïve young rich guy. Despite this, there were those who perceived it as an opportunity to gain resources without breaking a sweat. Cooper anticipated such skepticism and was ready for it. He firmly believed that the situation would ultimately benefit him, regardless of what others thought.
Recruiting non-supernaturals had a hidden advantage. Unlike low-level supernaturals, who often had an ego, non-supernaturals were more likely to be humble and follow instructions, particularly when circumstances demanded money.
They were not born superior, and as such, were willing to learn and work hard. This made them an ideal choice for Cooper, who understood that training someone from scratch was not only time-consuming but also costly. Instead, he opted to train people with pre-existing skills as it was more efficient.
Although it was possible to train normal humans from scratch, few bothered as it was a long and expensive process. Many preferred to stay in the civilian sector and avoid the supernatural world, which they saw as dangerous and unpredictable.
They argued that the civilian sector still needed people, such as accountants, lawyers, and other professionals, and that the supernatural world should be left to supernaturals.
Alex had an advantage in recruiting non-supernaturals as he had a system that could grant them capabilities. Although inferior to supernatural abilities, it was a nearly free way to enhance normal human abilities.
With this system, those with limited resources could still gain a certain level of skill that would otherwise be impossible.
As Alex had learned from Yan Luo, the public version of the system was to be tried on 1000 users first, giving him an advantage. The prospect of being a system admin filled him with excitement.
Similar to a game admin, a system admin monitored and moderated the users. This gave Alex complete control over his guild members, ensuring that there was no room for rogue members or criminal activities.
Guild members around the world often faced the temptation to use superpowers for personal gain or illegal activities. To prevent this, they adhered to a strict code of conduct that ensured everyone was held to the same standards and upheld the ideals of justice, equality, and fairness.
Trust was vital, particularly in a sea of egomaniac superpowered individuals. Strong leadership, which demonstrated respect for the rules, was essential in setting a good example for everyone else to follow.
Some guilds achieved this through an iron-fisted approach, similar to a dictatorship. However, this often created resentment among guild members and was only effective in the short term.
Alex's approach of training non-supernaturals had the potential to create a team of loyal and trustworthy members who understood the value of hard work and were committed to upholding the ideals of the guild.
Alex had a master plan, and it involved absolute control over his potential guild members. He was not interested in dealing with egotistical individuals who lacked capability, and instead sought to train a normal human to become the perfect guild member.
Alex was aware that a normal human would be more willing to listen and learn, and would be more morally indebted to him for lifting their life. He believed that training someone from scratch would ultimately result in more gratitude and loyalty than dealing with already trained individuals who expected everything to be handed to them.
Despite the cost of training someone from scratch, Alex felt that it was worth it. He was pleased with the recruitment ad's results, which had drawn many people to the guild's headquarters. However, Alex was not present at the recruitment event, leaving his initial members to handle the task of recruiting and testing new members.
These initial guild members were simply random people that Alex had granted access to his system, which was a feature that no one else had even tried before. Alex had been chosen by Yan Luo to test the system granting feature, which had worked flawlessly. Yan Luo was confident that this feature could now be used publicly.
The people that Alex had recruited were mostly random individuals from the streets, whom he had discovered through the use of a private investigator. Alex's requirements were simple: normal people with clean backgrounds who were hardworking and loyal, and who had been forced to do anything to survive.
These initial guild members ranged from level 30 to 50, boosted by Alex's money and resources. They were loyal and dedicated to Alex, even willing to sacrifice their own lives for him. Yan Luo was aware of this and did nothing, as he saw nothing wrong with manipulating people's lives to lift them up.
He did not judge Alex, knowing that he too was not a good person. Yan Luo's goal was to save Earth, even if it meant burning half of it to do so. He did not care for Earth or its inhabitants, but rather felt pity for the planet's potential destruction by foreign invading gods.
Alex and the other initial system users were unaware of Yan Luo's true goal. They believed that he wanted to save Earth because he cared for it. Yan Luo planned to let the six initial system users decide the fate of Earth, as he had his own dimension and did not need Earth for anything.
His only concern was preventing the total destruction of Earth.
