My Cultivation System

After giving his disciple token to the wooden puppet, Henrick waited for the transfer of 3450 contribution points from the contribution hall.

"Transfer 1725 contribution points,"

The wooden puppet slowly spoke with an expressionless face.

'Cling'

'+1725'

Soon, a holographic number appeared above Henrick's disciple token before entering into it.

"What? Why are you transferring only 1725 contribution points? Where is the remaining contribution points,"

Henrick was shocked by the actions of the wooden puppets as he became anxious and hurriedly asked it.

"Yes, yes. You better don't cheat us. Do you know who is our master? He is the sect leader of this outer sect," 

Nick was also angry because it was not a small number that the contribution hall was not paying Henrick. 

Moreover, the wooden puppet was a high-rank one that knows many cultivation techniques. So, he used their master name to induce some fear into the wooden puppet and the one who was in charge of the contribution hall.

"Let me explain, first," the wooden puppet started explaining, "Whenever a disciple sells something, we will pay only 50 percent of the appraised value...."

"Then what about the remaining 50 percent of the contribution points," Henrick asked before the puppet could finish explaining.

"As for the remaining 50 percent of the contribution points, we will transfer only after we sell it to others," The wooden puppet calmly explained about the remaining 50 percent of the contribution points.

"Huh? What happens if you are unable to sell it?"

Henrick nodded his head and understood the process; however, he got a doubt about it and asked it.

Since they were only paying him 50 percent of the evaluated value, Henrick worried that if they were unable to sell the goods, then what would the contribution hall do.

"We will sell it for 100 percent. You don't need to worry about it, customer," To his question, the wooden puppet started explaining, "Even in the worst-case scenario, if we are unable to sell those goods, we will pay you the remaining 50 percent within a year."

"Oh...good,"

Only after he got the answer from the puppet, Henrick was able to heave a sigh of relief as he took his disciple token from the puppet.

"Let's go, Nick,"

Soon, Henrick and Nick left the contribution hall after sorting the contribution points.

"Henrick, why don't you buy a nick weapon as you have many contribution points," While they were moving out, Nick suggested Henrick buy a weapon with his contribution points.

After selling the mission items to the contribution hall and adding to his previous contribution points, Henrick now had a total of 2365 contribution points in his disciple token.

"Nope. Currently, I don't need a weapon," Henrick replied to him with a slight smile; however, he didn't say anything more.

Just earlier, he got a rank 3 weapon from the daily mission rewards. So, buying another weapon was just a waste of contribution points.

Moreover, he still didn't know which weapon was compatible and comfortable for him.

Every cultivator excels in the proficiency of a single weapon or multiple weapons. As long as they continue training with the weapon and learn various techniques related to those weapons, they could reach higher realms in that particular weapon proficiency.

"As you wish"

Nick also didn't say anything because it was his wish whether to buy a weapon or not.

Soon, both of them along with the armoured fire crocodile reached their cultivation abodes.

"Finally, you came,"

Just as their cultivation abodes were within reach, they heard a familiar voice and soon they saw their master appear in front of them out of nowhere.

"Master"

Without any delay, Henrick and Nick both bowed as they respectfully greeted their master.

"I heard you completed the mission. Well done," the sect leader Gamos walked towards them as he continued, "Now, you can go and rest. Day after tomorrow, you need to complete more missions."

While saying that last sentence, there was a slight smile on his face.

"Yes, master,"

Both of them nodded their heads without any retorting back to their master.

"But why wait until the day after tomorrow? Can't we just go into the beast mountain tomorrow?"

"Yes, master. If you go tomorrow, we can finish more missions, right?"

After agreeing to their master, both Henrick and Nick asked their master with puzzled looks on their faces.

The thing was both Henrick and Nick had their own reasons to enter the beast mountain.

For Henrick, he wanted to fill his dantian with pure internal fire energy and continuously send extra pure internal fire energy to the fire vine.

As for Nick, he wants to complete as many missions as possible and collect the items to sell them in the contribution hall. So that he could buy the thing he wanted.

So, of course, they were eager to enter the beast mountain again. 

'These two disciples of mine are really scary,'

The sect leader Gamos expected that his disciples would unwillingly agree to him; however, he didn't expect that they were very eager to go on their next mission.

'Looks I need to increase the difficulties for not only Henrick but Nick also,'

Since Henrick belongs to an ancient fire demon race, the sect leader Gamos intentionally increased the difficulty of his first newbie mission; however, after seeing how excited Nick was for his next newbie mission, the sect leader Gamos thought to increase difficulty in the missions for him too.

"It is a standard rule that an outer sect disciple should not enter the beast mountain daily because after completing the missions, they have to ponder regarding their actions and what mistakes they did and how could they improve their efficiency in completing the missions from the next time,"

While feeling shocked with his disciples inside his heart, the sect leader Gamos explained.

'Once you see the true cruelty of the beasts in the beast mountain, I will see how eager you will be. If you want to go after seeing that, you will become the strong and fearless cultivators,'

The sect leader recalled something from his youth and shook his head.

"Okay then. If you have any questions, you can ask me now," 

Nevertheless, he didn't show it on his face and asked whether they have any doubts regarding beast mountain or any other things.

Only when a cultivator goes to a new place, they start questioning many things. That was what the sect leader Gamos had thought in his head.

"Master, I have one,"

Henrick replied back without wasting any time and nodded his head.

"Haha...I know, you will have some questions to ask me,"

Of course, it was not a surprise for the sect leader Gamos that Henrick would be asking the questions.

"It's about the beast mountain. There is something wrong with the beasts in the beast mountain. Do you know the reason behind it, master?"

Henrick didn't waste any time and directly asked the question that was pestering him for a while.

"Huh?"

Hearing Henrick's question, the sect leader Gamos raised his brows as he hurriedly looked at his surroundings.

'Seal'

After confirming that there was no one, he hurriedly sealed the region around them as though the sect leader Gamos was worried about something.

'Swoosh'

Soon, a barrier appeared around them, which made both Henrick and Nick puzzled as they didn't think it was such a big thing.

"How did you find out about it?"

In the very next second, the sect leader asked Henrick with a serious look on his face.

Henrick didn't say anything except for pointing his finger at the armoured fire crocodile.

"Huh? An armoured fire crocodile? So?"

The sect leader didn't understand what Henrick was trying to say and looked at the armoured fire crocodile even more carefully; however, he didn't find anything.

The sect leader Gamos already knew that the armoured fire crocodile was the tamed beast of Nick but he didn't understand what Henrick was trying to say. So, he looked at him with a puzzled look on his face.

"Even though it is yet to reach rank 3, it is very clear and could form a forceful contract with Nick. Also, the baby fire monkey was also the same. It was too clear despite having such a low realm. So, I thought there is something the beast mountain is doing to make them intelligent," Henrick gave his analysis of the beast from the beast mountain.

"Oh," The sect leader Gamos was surprised by Henrick's evaluation skills as he looked at the armoured fire crocodile before he started laughing.

"Haha"

"It's time for you to learn about the beast mountain,"

The sect leader Gamos stopped laughing before he looked at both of his disciples and replied to them.

.....

At the peak of the beast mountain,

"Master, master"

Gregor and Filip hurriedly reached the peak of the beast mountain as soon as they closed the entrance to the beast mountain to inform their masters about the armoured fire crocodile.

"What happened to you both? Did someone from the outer sect pick a fight with you?" Seeing their disciples rushing at them, Elder Strauss and Elder Franz asked them with a slight smile on their faces.

"No no no"

Gregor and Filip shook their heads as they heavily panted.

"Then?"

Elder Strauss asked with a curious look on his face.

"It's about the armoured fire crocodile with 69 number on it," Filip replied to them while Gregor bathed for some air.

"What happened to it?"

Before their masters could give a reply, an old man appeared in front of them out of nowhere and asked with a condensed voice.
