"I thought you said that only third-year students can visit the Academy's Dungeon?" William asked, though he couldn't really complain.
The Professor laughed, "I did say that; I'm glad you were paying attention! There are plenty of Dungeons scattered around the Plane, we will just have to escort you to so of them. There's one in specific that might be of interest to you, what with your skill with the Earth Elent."
"Where is it?" William felt no need to hide his interest.
Where there were Dungeons, there were Magical Beasts. And where Magical Beasts were, there were...
Potential Points!
-Ascended Points.
They're just groups of Potential Points, sa thing!
-I thought you wanted to change the na. Falling in love with the PP now? Weirdo.
First of all, fuck off. The na has grown on ; I can't help it. William was incensed by the System's words, but he didn't let it show on his face.
"The one I'm referring to is known as the Quake Dungeon. It's a naturally-ford Dungeon, and it will eventually disappear once soone clears it. It's only two hundred thousand kiloters south of here, and the entire route to and from is perfectly safe. It's a popular spot for the second years.
The only problem is, only Cultivators under the age of thirty can enter, and it's a 40 floor Dungeon. Which is why I'm recomnding you, since you can take a few years to get a feel for the Dungeon." the Professor gave his signature thumbs-up before a greyish-white ferret ran up to him with an envelope in its mouth.
William nodded, "You want to clear it?"
"Clear it? Heavens, no. Just roam between the first and fourth floors, they should be manageable even if your combat power isn't stellar.
Any higher than that and you might be in danger. There's plenty of treasures that appear from ti to ti, but you'll have the most luck harvesting the Magical Beast's bodies." the Professor handed the envelope to William, who promptly opened it to reveal a small recomndation letter.
"This will allow you access to the Dungeon and will guide you down the route to it, but rember that your life is yours. If you die sohow, don't send your backer to target our Academy."
William accepted the envelope and stored it in his pocket for now. For so reason, his Space Rings didn't work inside the Professor's All Zone.
He spoke for a while longer with the Professor, but his social ter was starting to wane thin and William wanted nothing more than to lay down in his hotel room. He thanked the Professor for the recomndation letter and navigated outside the All Zone and through the school building until he was outside of the Filem Academy Dinsion.
A System ssage greeted him, reminding William to mask his appearance before anything weird happened.
-Your Talents have been restored to normal functionality.
Man, that permanent evening is really ssing with . William shielded his eyes from the eternal evening sunlight that followed the sa direction as his hotel. He started to miss morning and night, where he could enjoy so darkness every once in a while.
Once he was back in his room, William sat cross-legged for a Cultivation session. Because he had to conceal his other Elents at all tis, William was only converting Mana of the Earth, Chaos, and Space Elents to Cultivate. If not for the fact that the Cultivation Technique relied partially on the Chaos Elent, William would have only used the other two Elents.
That said, he still managed to absorb 90 million Spirit Qi in an eight-hour session, even while using a tiny fraction of his full capacity. Cultivation in the Ascended Realms is a hundred tis more efficient than the Mortal Realms, which made William excited to get his own area where he could Cultivate freely.
If I can get enough loot from this Dungeon, maybe I can buy a house! William bead from ear to ear as he made himself and Atticus so breakfast.
-Requirents have been unlocked to Ascend many Talents. Interim period has ended. Feel free to upgrade your Talents, but do so in a safe environnt away from the public eye.
It's been a week already? I can't believe it!

-Ti flies when you're having fun.
What fun? Getting chased around by weirdos because I'm too handso?
-Fun is fun. I know you like it.
I really don't! Let's see these Talents though! William scrolled through the Status Panel and looked at each individual Talent's upgrade requirents.
--Earth: X (1,000,000PP Deity Earth Shard)
--Fire: X (1,000,000PP Deity Fire Shard)
--Ice: X (1,000,000PP Deity Ice Shard)
--Lightning: X (1,000,000PP Deity Lightning Shard)
--Plant: X (1,000,000PP Deity Plant Shard)
--Water: X (1,000,000PP Deity Water Shard)
--Wind: X (1,000,000PP Deity Wind Shard)
Well... the Magic part is easy. I just need whatever these Deity Shards are of the respective Elent. William was happy to see that his Magic could finally be Ascended. He felt like it had been forever since he upgraded his Magic.
--Weapons Master: X (1,000,000PP God of Weaponry's Intuition)
God of Weaponry? That sounds like a shady character I'd rather not et right now.
--Climbing: X (1,000,000PP Tier 7 Array-Enhanced Climbing Picks)
--Wrestling: X (1,000,000PP Hand To Hand Combat Manual)
--Physical Charm: X (1,000,000PP Disciple of Aphrodite's Pocket Mirror)
Useless trash, don't care.
--Attack Reflection: X (Max Rank)
I'm still sad that I can't upgrade that. Is it really the maximum Rank, System?
-You can rge it with other Talents.
Ah, that's right. I still have the Talent Shop after all. Let's see what else there is.
--[Ascended] Recovery: F (5AP to next rank)
--Weapon Sharpness: A (5000PP to next rank)
--Attack Combo: A (5000PP to next rank)
Five AP just to upgrade Recovery once? Damn, that's expensive! William realized he would have to kill over fifty Ascension Realm Magical Beasts just to earn enough Points to upgrade his Recovery.
He had 9 AP right now, but it was going to be tough deciding on which Talent to upgrade, especially when he had so many. He even thought about the Chaotic Storage, which was supposed to be nearly un-crackable. It only had a small amount of storage space right now, hardly enough to keep all his valuables.
-All your junk, you an?
I keep lots of good stuff too! William frowned at the System's comnt. He scrolled further and further down the System Panel, taking note of all the interesting Talents to upgrade. Of course, there were still a few that hadn't even reached X-Rank yet.
--Hard Body: X (1,000,000PP 3x Initial Deity Realm Earthwyrm Scales)
--Forcefield: X (1,000,000PP Epic Cultivation Technique)
--Forcefield Recovery: A (5000PP to next rank)
--Soul Cultivation: A (5000PP to next rank)
--Spell Fusion: A (5000PP to next rank)
--[Ascended] Cultivation: F (5AP to next rank)
--Mana Dominator: X (1,000,000PP Epic Cultivation Technique)
--Soul: C (1000PP to next rank)
--Heaven Bruising: A (10000PP to next rank)
--Magic Homing: A (10000PP to next rank)
--Fitness: X (Locked. S-Rank System)
