My Cultivation System

Until now, he didn't have any plans of allowing Henrick to participate in the outer sect yearly tournament; however, after learning the fact that Henrick could now hide his bloodline, with his new skill 'Camouflage', he decided to give all the cultivation resources to him.

Moreover, he was much more confident in Henrick compared to Nick in reaching the top 10.

Soon, they talked about the tournament for a while before Henrick said, "Master, some elder named Alaster said that I have some talent in weapon refining and wanted to take me as his half-disciple."

"He wanted me to ask your permission first before giving any reply to him. Do you know him?"

Henrick said the second sentence after a small pause.

"Alaster?"

The sect leader Gamos nodded his head as he knew him before saying, "He is the best weapon-refiner in the entire outer sect."

'Best weapon-refiner?'

Henrick raised his brows because he felt it was a little unconvincing for him to believe it.

All of a sudden, he revealed a slight smile on his face as he asked Henrick, "Did he really want to take you as his half-disciple?"

Gamos was really skeptical about it because he felt it was impossible for Alaster to take any more disciples. So, he asked Henrick one more time.

"Yes, master. Why will I lie to you?"

Henrick felt a little dissatisfied for not having sufficient belief in him; however, without showing it on his face, he replied back to his master.

"Haha"

Hearing his words, the sect leader Gamos laughed out loud before saying, "Accept it and become his disciple."

"Okay, master,"

Even if his master disagreed, Henrick was ready to convince him at any cost because he should become a weapon refiner; otherwise, it would be difficult to complete the future trials in the inheritance building.

"By the way, is he really the best weapon refiner in the entire outer sect?"

After nodding his head, Henrick asked his master about his earlier words.

"Of course it's him. Why do you ask?"

The sect leader Gamos confidently replied and at the same time asked why he was doubtful.

"When I was inside the weapon's hall, someone called him vice-leader. I am guessing that he must be the vice-leader of the weapon's hall. So, then shouldn't the leader of the weapon's hall be the best weapon-refiner in the outer sect?

Henrick remembered the words of the young man he heard when he was in the weapon's hall.

"About that..."

The sect leader Gamos shook his head as he said, "The leader of the weapon's hall is the second best weapon-refiner; however when it comes to cunningness, it would be second to the grand elder of my outer sect."

Henrick didn't say anything as he continued to hear his master's words.

"Using his cunningness, the leader of the weapon's hall made Alaster unable to challenge him to get the leader position of the weapon's hall. So, I suggest, if you want to learn about the weapon refining, then Alaster is the best master for you,"

The sect leader Gamos didn't say what happened between the leader and vice leader of the weapon's hall; however, Henrick understood one thing and it was they were not on good terms.

"Okay, master. I will learn weapon refining from him,"

Henrick nodded his head like an ideal disciple who would never go against his master's orders.

"Anyway, you have to choose a profession when you reach the energy condensation realm. So, I will add 'Weapon-refining' as your profession in sect's records,"

After hearing Henrick's words, the sect leader Gamos nodded his head.

Once a cultivator reaches the energy condensation realm, they could choose a profession that they like in order not to get crazy while entirely focusing on cultivation.

"But...I am interested in Beast taming, Master,"

All of a sudden, Henrick said to Gamos without thinking much.

Just like Alchemy and weapon-refining, beast taming is also a profession and those who practice that profession are called beast tamers.

"Huh? You want to become a dual professionalist?"

The sect leader Gamos raised his brows as he asked Henrick.

In this world, having multiple professions along with cultivation was not an impossible thing; however, those with more than one profession never reached a peak in any of it.

Moreover, even in cultivation, they were unable to reach a good level. So, the sect leader Gamos feared that Henrick would make the same mistake as those cultivators. 

"Actually, I didn't take that decision without a thought. From my beginning, I like playing with wild animals," Henrick also noticed that his master didn't like his words; however, he continued, "From my childhood, my mother gave me a small wild animal

 for my birthday and so far I have eighteen wild beasts in my house."

Henrick slowly explained the reason why he wanted to become a beast tamer.

'...'

Hearing Henrick's words, the sect leader Gamos became speechless.

'His mother gifted him wild animals? Is he sure that they were wild animals and not some wild beast?'

Since the sect leader Gamos had already known about how powerful Henrick's parents were. He felt it was impossible for his mother to give him some wild animals for his birthday.

Wild animals and Wild beasts are worlds apart just like a mortal and a cultivator.

One would live a normal life whereas the other one could continuously gain strength by practicing cultivation techniques and fighting others for cultivation resources.

So, when he heard that Henrick had 18 wild animals which were possible some high-level wild beasts, the sect leader Gamos didn't know what to say.

'Wait for a second...why am I comparing with normal standards? He is a descendant of the 'ancient fire demon' race. So, he was born to do miracles,' Soon, the sect leader Gamons cleared his earlier thoughts and nodded his head as he said, "However, the moment I see your cultivation not progress much, then you have to stop one of your professions and focus on your cultivation."

"Yes, master,"

Henrick excitedly nodded his head while thinking about his eighteen pets back at the home.

"You can go and start your weapon refining practice from today and weekly once, you have to enter the beast mountain to complete the remaining 9 newbie missions from me,"

Finally, the sect leader ended the discussion as he asked him to go and meet Alaster.

"Master, no no,"

Before his master could leave the cultivation abode, Henrick hurriedly shook his head as he said, "I will practice weapon-refining for days, go to the beast mountain for another two days and as for the remaining three days, I will stay in my cultivation abode to focus on cultivating."

As soon as the sect leader Gamos had agreed for him to become the half-disciple of the vice-leader of the weapon's hall, Henrick had already planned his schedule and informed his master.

"Balancing everything? Good. I hope, everything goes as you planned," The sect leader Gamos revealed a slight smile as he shook his head before saying, "I have to go and check on Nick now. See you later."

After finishing his words, the sect leader Gamos disappeared from Henrick's cultivation abode.
