Mining mana and elental crystals for days on end was a boring affair. Though, he had learned sothing extrely beneficial on the third day, while he experinted a little with his newly obtained mana gathering technique.
Shane pondered for a long ti, wondering what he should do with the fortune he had earned through mining crystals. In the end, he decided to invest everything for himself, while leaving enough for Umbra's next quality upgrade.
Compared to others, he had earned a fortune and by the third day, he had already purchased all the necessary manuals to reach a 60% mana purity, with a good mana gathering technique. He had even gone ahead and purchased a [Tier-2 (Gold)] body refining technique.
Now he had nearly everything needed to improve his cultivation and body refining and with his multiple manuals. He also had to think of ways in order to protect himself in a better way, because his equipnt mainly consisted of Tier-1 items.
This led Shane to accumulate funds in order to procure better equipnt, with which he would be able to kill or at least injure all kinds of beasts within the Basic Dinsions.
Because his goal was set, Shane's mining speed increased further as a steady influx of gold coins motivated him to work harder. The Elus-rchant hundreds of thousand galaxies away laughed heartily in his incorporeal form because Shane who was seen as a small fry, sent him tens of thousand crystals, bringing him a fortune and a good reputation among the Elus nobles.
While mining, Shane also practiced his newly acquired [Tier-2 (Gold)] mana gathering technique in order to accomplish several tasks at the sa ti.
As his focus was unstable, he could only gather a small number of mana particles at a ti. But due to his amity with mana, coupled with [Artemis' Blessing], it was still enough to fill his mana pool.
After the mana gathering process was done, Shane switched to his [Tier-1 (Gold)] mana purifying technique instead of the [Tier-2 (Gold)] one, because he didn't want to bother about mixing the two techniques.
He couldn't let his mana purity cross 28% before he acquired the [Apprentice-(Mythic)] body refining technique.
So might call him stupid or naive, but a simple mistake could lead to him accidentally practice the wrong technique.
As such, Shane sealed the technique with the help of his system which could be unsealed only when he ordered the system to do so or once he achieved his set goal.
Cultivating while doing sothing else was extrely difficult. If he were to be honest it was a negligible amount one would achieve within a few hours in focused cultivation, but Shane was still happy with his achievent after another three days.
Six days passed and it was midnight when Shane rembered sothing important that happened four days prior.
2 days after his emotional outburst on the family group chat, he had received a few notifications, while Aunt Kia had ssaged him privately.
The notifications were from the academies telling him that he was accepted. It was not really sothing noteworthy in his opinion because his cultivation and body refining rank were already quite good compared to average peers.
Owing to his high consumption of the [Mortal-(Mythic)] body refining technique, Shane was slower than others. But, his funds balanced this out, allowing him to stay at the sa rank or even above peers from average households.
Because he knew that most higher households and nobles didn't bother about academies, Shane never doubted that he would be rejected by any academy, but Aunt Kia's ssage was still sothing he didn't expect.
'Huh? Aunt Kia beca the principal of the [Shirai] academy? Since when..' Curious about his Aunt's decision, Shane continued to read the ssage when he read sothing particular.
Sighing, Shane realized that he was in a tricky position.
'If I don't have to attend lessons and only sit the exams plus if the ranking system determines who'll enter the dinsion-spheres, it will be much easier for to learn other stuff within the primordial dinsion and more importantly Aunty won't be sad…
BUT why does it have to be the [Shirai] academy? Isn't that one of the worst? ….
Well..even if it's the worst, does it affect my plan??... Co to think of it, it doesn't even matter which academy I join, as long as they have a dinsion-sphere with a few decent skill tos and martial art manuals.'
In the end, Shane sent a simple ssage to his Aunty Kia, while being reminded about her childish, yet sowhat formal personality.
