”Yes, for a young aspirant with your talent, there is always a way around things.” Lorenzo was happy that this student showed interest in applying for array master certification. 

”Good, count me in. What about the card creationist certification? Can you help me with that too?” Though the only merit of having a card creation certificate is having access to the card creationist guild’s large customer base. A certificate from them will help me boost my reputation in any place I try to prop up my shop. 

”Why do you need a card creationist certificate when you have an array master certificate? Boy, trust me, an array master certificate will open many doors for you that the card creationist certificate cannot enter. Array masters are like VIPs. Card creationists are like third-class citizens with poor credit scores. Let me tell you something. Every array master is a card creationist but not every card creationist is an array master.” Lorenzo said passionately. He meant what he said. And could not understand why his student wanted to be a card creationist when he could be an array master. 

”Old man, I don’t care about the feud between array masters or card creationists. The reason I want a card creationist certificate is that, if you haven’t noticed, it is my bread and butter. My trade. It is a good business where I can earn decent money. People need card creationists. What about array masters? Except for cities, nobody needs them.” The reason why I prioritized Card creationists over array mastery was that card creationists have a large market. Every card apprentice needs a card creationist. So I would never run out of business. 

”Money? Is that reason you prefer card creationists? Hahaha, For somebody who claims to be smart, you can be short-sighted sometimes. Times like these remind me you are just a high school student.” Lorenzo was amused by the reason for his student to prefer a card creationist over an array master. 

”Old man, if you find something funny, then share it. Spread the smile.” Seeing Lorenzo smug, I felt annoyed. 

”Okay, okay, it is not your fault that you are short-sighted, but this third-rate city’s fault. It has limited your worldview. Boy, don’t let the standards of the third-city limit your view. People here are poor. They cannot afford an array master. That is why you don’t see any array masters in this city. Compared to what an average array master makes, the amount you make being a card creationist is chump change. 

Just take the field/trap cards as an example. Do you know how costly they are compared to other cards of the same rank?

Any wannabe card creationist can create regular cards and call himself a professional card creationist. But the same is not valid for an array master. It takes a lot of skill, hard work, and dedication with the talent to be an Array master, and sometimes that is not enough. That is how difficult it is to be an array master.” Lorenzo explained, but there was bias in his words. He looked down on card creationists as a profession.

”How much can I expect to earn as an array master? Since the people of a third-rate city cannot afford them, they must make a fortune, humor me.” Lorenzo’s words made it sound like array master was my dream profession.

”More than you can imagine. Just open an array shop and set up a few advanced tier soul energy gathering arrays and rent them out for hourly charges. You can live the rest of your life on the rent from those arrays. Before you say anything, the minimum rent for a primary array gathering array for an hour is two soul jades. Now you do the math. And you tell me if you still think that a card creationist earns more than an array master.” The more I listened to Lorenzo’s words, the more I felt I would have a better standing in society as an array master than card creationists. Especially in the central academic city. Array rental shops will bloom there compared to a card boutique. Or I could open both of them, and my prospect of making money would increase by a few more times. 

”Well, old man, sign me up. Do I need to take some tests for this? Tell me the process. I will finish them right away.” Listening to the prospects of an array master in a big city, I was hyped to be certified as an array master. 

”I knew you would come around. You made the correct choice. Don’t worry about the certification. I will make the arrangements. Just be prepared for the certification exam and wait for my call.” Seeing his student finally be excited about being an array master Lorenzo was delighted. Being cursed with disappointing sons who did not choose the path of array master and followed their mother’s footsteps to be muscle-brained fighter card apprentices. Therefore he felt like a proud parent as his student choose to be an array master.

”Good. I don’t mean to undermine your explanation till now, but I would like to have a card creationist certificate too. Could you help me with that?” Having a certification as a card creationist will not hurt. If anything, I will be able to attract more customers due to my certification as both a card creationist and an array master. 

”Okay, I will contact the city’s card creationist guild and have them send you a card creationist certificate.” Lorenzo decided to cave to his student’s request. After all, all he was trying to do was attract more customers and make more money. Lorenzo respected that. 

”Just like that? Don’t I need to undergo a test or exam to prove my capabilities as a card creationist for the certification?” I asked in surprise.

”No, I will vouch for you. So it will be fine if you don’t take an exam, but the same is not valid for array master certification. It would help if you prepared for that.”
