Greetings, mighty Lords!
During the Eastern Han and Three Kingdoms Period, the master-apprentice relationship was a crucial bond for the transmission of knowledge, skills, and political influence. From Lu Zhi instructing Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan in classical studies, to Sima Hui recognizing the scholarly demeanor of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, and Hua Tuo passing down medical arts to Wu Pu—these mentorship networks not only shaped individual destinies but also formed the vital foundation for scholarly interactions, school continuations, and power consolidation in turbulent times.
In INFINITE BORDERS, whether it's pioneering strategies or lineup synergies, the passing down of EXP is essential. It not only helps new players integrate into the battlefield faster but also allows veteran players who enjoy sharing to earn greater recognition and respect. To this end, INFINITE BORDERS will soon introduce the Master-Apprentice System, enabling new and veteran players to form mentorship bonds and transform every gameplay insight into a powerful force for Aligned Advancement.
[Become Master and Apprentice]
"The master imparts teachings; the disciple follows them. With warmth, humility, and sincerity, one receives the utmost."
—"Guanzi: Duties of a Disciple"
After the Master-Apprentice System is launched, characters with a Season count >3 and a Historical Force Value ≥20,000 will automatically become Masters and can recruit characters with a Season count ≤3 and a Force Value ≥200 as Apprentices to pass on their EXP. The Lord can send an application to the other party, and upon approval, the two will form a Master-Apprentice Relation.
Recruit Disciples
Lords can edit their personal profiles on the recruitment platform to gain more exposure and attract more players to join and learn under their guidance.
Edit Personal Profile
In the Master-Apprentice system, coursework is a necessary path to solidify fundamentals and progress. To that end, Masters need to assign coursework quests to Apprentices each day and, through guidance and progress tracking, help Apprentices master the core essentials of developing their Forces. Based on the Apprentice's daily coursework completion, the Master will receive a corresponding number of "Master Points" at 1:00 the next day (UTC+9), reflecting the results of both sides growing together.
Assign Today's Coursework
Even if master and disciple are in different Seasons, their bond transcends time and space. Masters can designate one Main City Troop as Reinforcement to Rush to help when disciples face obstacles in Land Attacks.

[Master Points]
"From the one who brings a bundle of dried meat upward, I have never withheld instruction."
—"Analects of Confucius: Shu Er"
In ancient times, bundles of dried meat were given as gifts; today, we repay with the fruits of learning. As disciples progress in their studies, mentors will also receive "Master Teacher Points" as commendation. Lords can take these points to the Marketplace - Master Teacher Shop to redeem precious tokens such as recruitment letters and permanent Avatar Frames, honoring the glory of mentorship and continuing the bond of passing on knowledge.

[Renowned Master]
With peaches and plums filling the world, why plant flowers before the hall?
— "In Response to Duke Ling's Planting Flowers at Green Field Hall" · Bai Juyi
The path of learning has an end, but the way of mentorship lies in its continuity. When disciples pass all trials and graduate with honor, both mentor and disciple will receive a graduation gift, marking a perfect conclusion to their journey together.
Graduation Rewards
The flame of knowledge never fades, and bonds endure. Lords can still reminisce in chat channels or revisit mentors and disciples in the Mentor Registry anytime, allowing this teacher-student friendship to transcend time and remain a lasting companion.
Master-Apprentice Registry
To honor mentorship and celebrate the achievement of nurturing talent, when five disciples graduate successfully, the mentor will earn the title "Renowned Master," praising their widespread teachings and unceasing legacy.
New Title: "Renowned Master"
[Summary]
In the vast world of INFINITE BORDERS, heroes showcase their talents. The mentorship system, bound by "legacy," connects the wisdom and passion of new and veteran players, allowing Lords to meet, bond, and co-write a brand new epic of mentorship, camaraderie, and shared exploration.

There is no other land than the king's land; within the INFINITE BORDERS, all are subjects of the king.
