Understanding Strength
A character's title is dictated by their strength. To upgrade character strength you need to get experience. You gain experience by doing things such as, completing main story tasks, school tasks, patrolling, script stealing, spying, etc. Then convert that experience into cultivation. With cultivation you can upgrade your strength and other fighting skills. As a character's strength goes up, so does their title.
For the detailed method of getting experience, click to check.
How to use cultivation to upgrade internal skill and fighting skill
There are three kinds of cultivation in game, Internal Cultivation, Practice Martial Arts, and Team Practice. To access your cultivation menu click on the cultivation icon in the upper left hand portion of the screen, and select one of the three options to begin cultivation.
1. Internal Cultivation: Internal cultivation will stop when a new level of skill is reached. You will be notified when your current level of cultivation has completed, so that you may set a new skill to cultivate.
2. Practice Martial Arts: This is the fastest way to upgrade skills, but this method costs silver or silver coins to perform.
3. Team Practice: With team practice, players cooperate and practice together, for great skill improvements. This is the best method for players to upgrade their skills. The more players participating in Team Practice the more experience they gain, but there is a daily limit on this type of cultivation.

Become part of the offline experience
In any MMO when a player logs out, does the world freeze in place for them? No, of course not, so why should the player? The world continues on whether the player is playing or not, so Age of Wushu has implemented a very unique offline system. When a player logs off, their character becomes an NPC and continues participating in the living breathing world around them until they log back in.
Offline Gameplay: A player does not need to do anything. After logging out, the character will remain in the game world, and continue the game experience. The character may wander, they may become a waiter in a tavern, a shop clerk, a servant in a noble’s house, or become a constable. If the player has joined a school, their character may rest in school, or learn kung fu there. After learning professions, they may go fishing by river, cut wood in forest, work a field, or mine ore.
