My Cultivation System

Inside the mission hall,

Henrick and Nick followed the directions that the old woman named Elder Shi had pointed and entered a room that was filled with newbie missions.

The room was completely empty and there was nothing inside it except for its walls which were completely filled with papers.

"Henrick, go and search for a mission for yourself. After you find a solo mission, let's search for our combined mission," Nick said to Henrick with a small smile on his face before he himself started searching for a mission.

"Hmm"

Henrick nodded his head and walked towards a wall and started looking for a mission.

On the walls, there were many papers and each one of them had a newbie mission.

"Bring a flame sac from the beast mountain"

"Find a ghost flower in the beast mountain"

"Clear one of the caves of red ghouls (Group mission)"

"Collect 100 low-level fire grasses,"

.

…

There were many interesting missions on the papers which were attached to the wall. Henrick felt he could do more than 5 of these missions because he felt they were not very difficult to complete.

"I think that must be the reason why master only allowed me to pick two missions for myself,"

Henrick muttered to himself when he thought back to his master words.

The sect leader Gamos had ordered him to complete 10 missions and among them, he could only choose 2 of them and the remaining eight would be chosen by himself for Henrick's sake.

"Nick, I think I found an interesting group mission for our second mission,"

Among the many missions he had seen on the wall, Henrick felt one of them was interesting and informed Mick about his choice.

"Oh. That's soon,"

Nick was surprised a little but he walked towards Henrick and asked, "Which mission?"

"This one,"

Henrick pointed at a yellow coloured paper and replied to Nick.

"Clear one of the caves of red ghouls?" Nick raised his brows a little as he tore the paper from the wall and read more details about the mission on the backside of the paper.

"As I expected, these caves are located at the left corner of the beast mountain," After reading the exact location of the caves, Nick looked at Henrick and asked, "Are you sure, you want us to do this mission?"

"Yes. Is there a problem with it?" From the look on Nick's face, Henrick felt something was wrong with the mission and asked about it.

"There is nothing wrong with it; however, this mission could be considered the most dangerous mission among all the newbie missions. So, you still want to do it?"

Nick once again asked Henrick's decision regarding the mission after explaining the danger level of the mission.

"I am interested to give it a try,"

Henrick felt like Nick was looking down on him or testing him by saying the difficulty of the mission. As an ancient fire demon, he was very prideful and competitive in nature. So, he nodded his head and showed that he was serious about the mission.

"Okay then. For our group mission, we will take this,"

After getting serious confirmation from Henrick, Nick also agreed with Henrick's decision and held the mission paper in his hands.

"Now, pick a solo mission for yourself,"

Nick moved towards another wall and started searching for a solo mission for himself.

"Nick, how many missions can we pick from here?"

Henrick checked various missions for some time before asking Nick a question.

In Henrick's view, the sect leader Gamos had well informed Nick with almost everything. So, he asked Nick about his doubt.

"Actually an outer disciple can only pick one mission at a time; however, since we are the personal disciples of the sect leader Gamos, we are permitted to pick an additional group mission,"

Nick was very calm and explained every question that Henrick asked without any irritation which made Henrick get a good impression on Nick.

"Okay,"

Henrick wanted to pick a couple more missions from the wall and convince his master to count those missions into his 10 missions; however, with the rules of the mission hall, he could not take more missions at one time.

"Picking or collecting missions is boring. I will go for something like killing a beast or bringing back some parts of a specific beast," Soon, he started pondering which mission to pick for his solo mission and immediately eliminated 90 percent of the missions because most of them were collecting some random spirit herbs from the beast mountain.

"By the way, Nick. Do you know why all the newbie missions' locations are in the beast mountain?"

Before picking his solo mission, Henrick asked Nick another question regarding the location of the newbie missions.

"It's simple. Among all the mountains that are connected to the Twin fire mountain, the beast mountain is less dangerous and even a lowly disciple could venture in it expect a few places like those caves,"

Nick picked a paper from the wall and while walking towards Henrick, he answered with a slight smile on his face.

"So, that is the reason why you are serious when I picked our group mission," Henrick understood what Nick said about the beast mountain. 

"So, what about other regions?" Henrick's interest piqued as he asked about the other mountains that were similar to the beast mountain but more dangerous than it.

"I don't know about it. Master said that after I enter the energy condensation realm, he will say more about our sect," Nick checked the paper in his hands as he replied to Henrick.

'Sigh...why is master so biased towards him? Is Nick his secret son or what?' Whenever he remembered the fact that his master explained many things to Nick but didn't say a thing to him, Henrick felt a little angry.

However, he could not do anything about it.

'So what? If I have any questions, I will ask Nick,' While thinking that, Henrick tore a paper from the wall as he selected a mission for himself.
