Dean didn't dally there and after giving Gilet a bow and said "Master, I will be taking my leave now and go cultivate now." Giving the proper respect to one's master was appropriate after all.

Which Gilet answered with "Alright, but remember tomorrow you have to wake up and get ready before the sun rises at 5 in the morning, as my disciple you should be prepared, I will tell you the important details tomorrow so be ready."

Nodding his head Dean went back to his own room, entering he sat down and made a fist bump at the air as he showed a smile on his face he started mumbling to himself like he had always done in the past "I can't believe that he would take me as a disciple when he my primal chaotic flames and because of that I do not need to worry about enrolling to the academy next week so I can focus on cultivation."

After thinking things through Dean's mind started wondering off to the things that he heard today and what just happened right now "There were 4 helpers before him and all of them quit after a short time, seems like Gile… Master was trying to find someone to take in as a disciple, but he doesn't old enough to be at deaths door so why is he trying to find a disciple already and why is he trying to find one through the helpers that he hires?"

Many thoughts was circulating in his mind at the moment, there were many possible reasons as to why he would do it and maybe there wasn't and only did it like this on a whim but Dean thought that it must have something to do with his mission and if he were to know why his Master would speak about it as well when he asks.

"Tomorrow I have to know why he is doing this, I have to buy that manual for the Caster Class and I need 50 SP in order to do that, but I am practically broke at the moment so I have to complete my mission to gain some points." Madding up his mind to start questioning Gilet first thing in the morning Dean closed his eyes fixed his posture straight and exhaled the air in his mouth to start his cultivation.

Dean didn't sleep for the whole night and just kept cultivating his body and the void bead inside his dantian, a cultivator do not need that much sleep after all when cultivators meditate to attract the heavenly qi around they wouldn't feel the need to sleep as cultivating was more effective for resting than sleeping for them.

Him being a 4th level Body Refiner can stay awake for a whole week without needing to sleep and meditate, his heavenly qi is the only thing that he needs in order for him to stay awake, there were even some old masters who cultivates for weeks, months and even years before stopping so a whole night was simple for him.

The cold wind of midnight started permeating in the air, opening his eyes from cultivating Dean stood up. It was already 5 in the midnight and he already need to go out and heed the orders of his brand new Master.

He opened his door and went to his Gilets place which was just a few steps away from his own room, he waited for a while and not long after the door of Gilet's house slid open. Seeing that Gilet step out his house Dean gave him a bow and greeted him "Master"

"Good, seems like you follow instruction well lift your head Dean. Follow me now we will go to the Forging hall to start your lesson immediately." Gilet gestured for him to follow, the two of them left there with the sun still hiding behind the mountains from afar.

The 2 of them didn't go through small talks and just like yesterday they didn't talk unless it was necessary. When Dean walked through the path where they walked yesterday he saw many different old men, middle-age men and young men walking on different directions.

He also saw it this time, but today it was different as there were even more people who was outside than yesterday, there were teachers running about and different students training on their own, this was a normal scene actually here in the Black Turquoise Academy but Dean was his first time seeing this.

A disciple training early in the morning was commonplace here, yesterday when he went pass here there weren't that much people around that was because they went out later than normal making him miss them as most of the students here also attends the classes seminars occasionally given in the Academy.

----These truly are an Academy. ---- He thought while walking behind Gilet as he looked around the various people walking around minding their own business. The pained look of students who were training around him as they tried to push themselves their limits made him feel his heart pounding from excitement making him feel the urge to train his muscles or even try some martial arts.

"The disciples around here are mostly comprise of people who are pursuing to become a Fighter Class in the future, they need to fortify their foundation in martial arts after they train early in the morning with their body until the sun rises and absorb the pure qi in the air." Gilet who was facing forward and walking in front suddenly started explaining things to Dean who was looking around.

"You don't have to worry about this for the time being, a caster needs to learn how to control the elements of the world in order for them to fight, you hold the primal chaotic flames so you will naturally become a Caster in the future and take the path of an artificer so instead of making you learn how to punch and kick or swing a sword you will need to learn how to strengthen your mind to make a connection with the elements of the world." He explained further to him.

A Caster is someone that focuses on bombarding their enemies with different kind of elemental spells and in order for them to do it they must first refine their mind to control their own elements most of the aspiring Casters mostly focus on making their mind as strong as possible.

After some time Dean and Gilet finally reached the hill of the Forging hall, they went up there with ease this time around, and when they went up there Dean notice how fast Gilet was moving compared to yesterday making him realize about some things ----This guy notice my muscle pain yesterday, that must be why I wasn't that exhausted as I thought when I went up here before. ----

"Dean don't let your head flow in to the world, come on hurry up we need every time that we have." Gilet urge him to move faster, Dean didn't even said anything and only nodded his head and started picking up his pace as he went up.

They reached the peak after a short while and entered the Forging hall, Gilet still didn't stop there and continued walking without saying anything as they went forward Dean found himself in front of the library where he met lady yesterday.

Gilet went to one of the book shelves and took out 5 different books that was as thick as 2 inches each some were even thicker than that, he placed it on the table and said to Dean "You must finish one of this today or else no dinner for you." He said to Dean who stood there with his eyes staring at the 5 books with his unmoving eyes.

"Stop staring and get on with it, you are my disciple now so make sure you follow my instructions if you want to become an artificer in the future, so stop staring at it and read already before I lose my patience." Gilet started threatening Dean stretched his left hand forward where a Blue Flame appeared.
