CHAPTER 6 CULTIVATION
Shadow also chooses someone named Bruce to be the Blacksmith, he is already the Blacksmith of the village, he just didn't have the profession.
Shadow chooses the doctor of the village to be their apothecary, her name is Doctor Mary.
The person he chooses for the Scholar Profession is called Rose, she is considered to be the smartest child in their village.
The final person he picks to be the first minister of the village is Shelia, Fatty's big sister.
Shadow was satisfied with the people he picked, he left the mansion and proceeded to Bruce's house, he inserted the Blacksmith Profession Orb in the middle of the room.
*Boom* The house transformed, the wooden house became much bigger, now with iron coated frames, there is also a sign that reads as Smithy.
After building a Smithy, Shadow goes to the back of the mansion, which is actually quite far from the actual backyard, he puts down the orb and builds the Military Campground, he appointed Ban, Lou Yan and their underlings, changing their profession into a militia.
Now, all of the spots of Militant are taken, he then builds a Research Lab next to it, calling Rose to become a Scholar, he builds an apothecary shop just near the military training ground.
After completing all of this, he appoints Ban's sister, Shelia, as the first Minster of the village.
After a full day of work, he returns back home, with a long and relaxing bath, he finally relaxes, taking a deep breath, he calls his nerves and says "Show system."
(SYSTEM is processing... SYSTEM is active,
System primary functions are giving mission or objectives and gives appropriate rewards.)
'Missions and rewards, huh, it seems similar to the quests games that I have played with in my last life.' This thought flashes in his mind.
"Show me the missions."

'Oh, What's this? Unknown Cultivation Technique?' He asks.
'SYSTEM, Scan this Cultivation Technique'
(Scanning.... Scanning complete, description will be shown.)
(Unknown Cultivation Technique : Uses the beast soul of a contracted beast to link with its partner, the beastmaster will gain a portion of their beasts' traits and power, while, the beast will gain a portion of the beastmaster's intelligence.)
(Tips : SYSTEM can bind the Hosts Contracted Beast so that the effect of the Cultivation Technique is maximized, Host can sign 1 beast each Cultivation Realm, while others can only sign 1 beast on BRONZE TO GOLD, requirement for compatibility towards the soul is also required, this does not apply to the Host.)
+GRADE : Unknown)
'This is great! unlike others, I don't need to be compatible with any beast, I just need the SYSTEM to bind my Contracted Beast.'
'Tomorrow, I will share this Technique with Ban and Lou Yan, too bad, grandpa's life is coming to an end, if not, I'll also teach him this Technique.' He sighs.
'I think, I will call this technique, the Beast Guiding Manual.'
'I will need to Upgrade my Village to get another Cultivation Technique, I hope that it is a Breathing Technique which can greatly increase the Village strength.'
He was very agitated that night so he couldn't get to sleep.
Morning came, he was dragging his weary body to the bathroom, he couldn't sleep last night, so he decided to practice the Basic Sword Technique all night just to get himself to fall asleep.
After getting himself ready, he called Glutton and accelerated to Ban and Lou Yan's houses
"What is it that makes you wake me up this early in the morning, Shadow?" Ban complains, his hair is very messy.
"Fatty, you call this early?! You really are a pig, aren't you? Just talking is annoying but your question is also something I want to ask, Why did you call us here, Aniki?" Lou Yan curiously asks.
"I found a Cultivation Manual!" He immediately announced.
"What?! A Cultivation Manual!" Both yelled in unison.
"Yes, it is a manual that teaches about contracting beast." He answers with excitement written in his face.
"I will share this Manual to both of you, memorize the content! Remember, it can only be trained when we got to BRONZE RANK!" He warns solemnly.
Both of them nodded in an eager manner.
"Okay, now that both of you understand,
starting this week, we will be hunting every day, during this time, we will search for potential beasts to sign a contract with, I don't need to search for mine cause I already have Glutton but you 2 need to find a compatible beast!"
"I will share this manual with the villagers, of course, only after assessing their loyalty and they must be at Bronze Rank" He tells them without hesitation, he trusts these two completely.
"Okay, everything aside, let us hunt!" The trio goes to the forest and keeps hunting until evening, they repeat this for weeks, the first person to level up is Lou Yan.
A month passed by, the trio was resting in Shadow's backyard.
"Aniki, I did level up faster than both of you but I still haven't found my partner, while Fatty got lucky, that bastard" Lou Yan indignantly said while gritting his teeth, his envy can be felt.
When Ban and Shadow leveled up, the former found an injured Variant Thunder Eagle, he rescued it and the Eagle agreed on signing a contract with him.
"By the way, is Fatty still practicing with Sniper?" Lou Yan asks, Shadow nods, when Ban is still picking a name for his first partner, he recommends this name.
"Shadow, Did you see Trevo anywhere?" An old voice suddenly came while the two were chatting.
It was Rey, Shadow's grandpa, he gave him the Manual after much deliberation, even though, his life is already ending, his grandpa jovially learned it.
He signed a contract with an old tortoise, they were surprised that he and the tortoise's compatibility is so great they shared a trait, it is an ability of the tortoise called "Longevity"
Now, his life has further increased, he gained 50 more years to his lifespan.
