Leveling up is how you measure your character's growth in 9Dragons. Every time you perform a quest or win a battle you gain some Experience. At certain points you are rewarded for this growth in Experience by attaining a new level, also called a "Cheng".
There are currently 18 major levels to advance through. Each major level has 12 minor levels (or Cheng) within it. At the start of every major level you must demonstrate new mastery of your Chi Breathing technique to advance. These are the 18 levels of Cheng you may attain on your road to The Dragon:
