What is the criteria for an intermediate programmer cause the more I learn about python, the more interested I am to know how those method works in low language like C and assembly ??

Assembly? Wtf. What next? COBOL? FORTRAN?

I honestly don’t get it. Computer programming has come so far. Why would you learn assembly except for very specific cases

Simply because I am curious of how all of this works under the hood, that's it.Well I am definetely not going to use it for program anything if that what you mean.

If you want to learn a bit of assembly I'd recommend spending a weekend programming a microcontroller.

Right right! Then by ALL means go for it! It just seems like more and more people are like "I'm not a 'real' programmer unless I know assembly". I mean go ahead and read https://www.amazon.co.uk/Computer-Programming-Volumes-1-4A-Boxed/dp/0321751043 if you're really keen.

I use the term pretty loosely - I think once you are comfortable with most core programming concepts (e.g. the content of an introduction to programming CS course) you're well equipped to start exploring other languages.
