Then allow me the honor of imparting some information with ya!

Secret Rank is not even alluded to until you clear Offline Mode, and even then, no real information is given until you get the Urgent Quest that will complete the Online Mode's story (although as with any MH game, there are still some quests given right after that). At that point, the Chief tells you that unique intelligence has come from a new Guild Jurisdiction: the Wyvern Boneyard, located on a far shore deep in a gulf of Moga. The Guild there wants you to prove your worth by fighting some special wyverns and fighting with unique conditions; however, they also want to observe his final days as a Tanzian Hunter, so they don't allow you to visit them yet.

When they do, you have to fight the Calamitos in the Wyvern Boneyard; this is the only place in which this monster can be killed or ran off, and the battle lasts for one hour.
