After the sun showed up , it meant it was time for Adel to stop his training and go forward to attend that session of the elders.
Though he really didn't need to know about the information, he still has to proceed with his acting as an ignorant about cultivation..

After Adel had done his daily necessities , he went to knock at Vermin's door to find her for breakfast , of which she opened her door , and greeted him with a smile that made him stunned in place a he showed an expression that seemed to be saying ' you're too beautiful '.
And he was right , as she was wearing a light darkened blue dress that showed yet another white dress , and had her white hair tied at the top, along with her B-cup breasts shown a bit.
( First chapter shows her current dress!)
He was too stunned to notice a slight blush on both their faces when they were noticing each other , and Vermin was in no way not embarrassed as she saw Adel checking out her breasts..
Adel quickly shook his head and then returned to his calm expression and smiled to her :" You look really stunning "
As soon as she heard him her face turned as red as tomato , but she quickly gathered her courage and thanked him, and proceeded with him to the cafeteria.
The whole walk was silent as none talked to another, until Vermin who had her head low , coughed embarrassedly, look at Adel and said :
" Actually the clan elders' session talk about the various things on the cultivation world , such doing less evil in order to have a better luck , and they also talk about the beasts' forest - which is a secret realm that each clan has , in order to send their youths in it in order to fight beasts and compete for rewards , and other various important-to-know information for all disciples."

After the breakfast , the two arrived at the place where disciples gather for the clan elders' session , and sat in a chair that was close to the elders .
-
A few minutes later , the elders arrived and one of them began speaking while the others sat on their own chairs waiting for their turns :
" In order to cultivate in the Body Refining realm , one needs to rely on Ki in order to train , as in the first realm - Ki sensing realm, one must touch open the most potent Ki they sense , as they differentiate from quality and have an important role in the longer run.
After the peak of Ki sensing realm , one must use threads of Ki in order to refine their blood with it.
The least one can do is refine 8/64 of their blood , as the more blood refined , the better foundation for the later realms, which is the case for the top-tier geniuses who had refined 16 of their blood .
There exist legends of being able to refine 32/64 of one's blood , but that's a legend as no one had ever been able to refine their blood to that level , as the highest genius could ever refine in this kingdom is 24/64.
And moving from the blood refining realm , who's divided into 4 stages ( 2/8 , 4/8 , 6/8 , 8/8 ) , There is the muscle refining realm after it.
It is the same case for the blood refining realm as there is 64 muscles , and it is divided into 4 stages of refining the blood into the muscles back.
After that there is the Heart refining realm where one gathers Ki in their heart and they spread it around their bodies , which is divided into 3 stages :
First stage : Heart opening which opens the Ki storage in the heart.
Second stage : Heart Ki refinement which brings the Ki that already existed before cultivation - As when the body breathes, they breath air and the energies that are contained within , which is being unconsciously used to refine their whole body with it.
Third stage : Heart closure which gathers enough Ki on it, to keep it there as the center . This realm is extremely dangerous as one can die if they add the slightest more of Ki in their hearts..
And there is the last realm which is the Body Shell closure which is divided into early , middle , late and peak stages : It is the extent of Ki that is used to create a shell around the whole body in order to protect it.
As for the soul refining realm - it'll be in the next session ." The elder then went back to sit on a chair in order to let another elder stand.
" Those were the cultivation realms of the body refining realms , where the more powerful the body is , the higher the advancing in ranks is .
As the body is actually the carrier of outside energy , which without a firm enough foundation would shake and break all the past cultivation , so it is necessary to go for the most one can reach in it , as it is the most important realm .
Enough about cultivation realms , now time to talk about the cultivation world.
Don't grow complacent and lazy if you think that your position on the clan, or background is enough to make you live a good life without cultivating, because after all there could be someone who doesn't have any background and faced all types of hardships in order to replace your position , so your background , bloodline and such don't matter here." Paused the elder to let them hear his words , of which a few disciples nodded their heads as if they've experienced what the elder said.
" That was about complacency , now let's talk about arrogance as one might think they are superior due to their backing , or noble bloodline , but never forget your origins.
Think back to your founders' origins , who were they? Were they people who were born with a noble bloodline ? With resources that could bring them all the way to the magic core refining realm? Or were they people who would get pleasure over r*ping mortals or doing such acts ?" Asked the elder , the disciples in turn looked a little thoughtful but shook their heads nonetheless after a while.
" Now don't get me wrong . After all , humans take pleasure in the misfortune of others , as the pleasure they'd feel like a drug - more intense in the case the misfortunes fell on those they hate the most, or are stronger or them.
So don't be like a random young master of a backward kingdom that goes around offending commoners who would then have their revenge on him , or his whole clan when they get stronger than their backers.
Now , not everyone thinks the same as everything we think about in this world is only a perspective of ours , as it is what our subconsciousness want us to think , not the truth.
For example , many would say there are Gods who made the world , Gods who ruled over it , and such words . But what could back up their words ? Nothing , just more words.
Thoughts are only superficial things us , mortals , have . If Gods existed , then without thinking on a mortal's logic , one would naturally agree as there exists only one God - Omnipotent and all , that made us mortals not on reference of such Gods as himself , but something that even if we think about for a long time , we won't know - Something beyond our understanding.
As if God , made us mortals, which had mortal limits such as 7 emotions , 6 desires , gender difference , number , etc. Then would there really be many Gods who have done the same ? Or transcended all of that and become omnipotent , ruling another world and making other mortals ? No one knows , but the most probable truth that our subconciousnes can think of is one - None , as God is the only omnipotent, and controls every matter of our current world , as it won't make sense that everything was made of nature or returned to it , or nothingness that created everything like how some think.
{ This part links to the original dimension of Adel... not saying more as it has a deeper meaning in later chapters. }
Now reverting back to the topic, since I deviated a bit about my words, let's talk about egos - as all humans have egos.
Their egos wouldn't be satisfied until they satisfy their desires, which would then boost their arrogance to another level.
Let's make an example of virginity , one's ego would be proud if they were to take over a maiden's virginity - As their ego consider the virginity of a female the badge of honor , something extremely precious , but the moment they take it , they won't pay much attention to the female and only contact her on occasions to relieve their lust...
And that's where they're wrong , as women have feelings too and not just tools to be used by men whenever they feel lustful , as they too need their feelings to be considered by others.
And finally , the last topic of today is to be aware of 7 emotions and six desires , as they are what cause our fall.
For an example , when you're looking for a treasures , or benefits from someone , always think rashly as greed , envy , wrath, etc. can affect your reasoning and bring out your own death sometimes.." As soon as he finished , he got to his place where he sat down until another elder followed by to continue the session...

Adel meanwhile was listening to everything and was interested in how they taught the disciples to not be some random young master for a main character of a novel, and actually thought decisively if their actions..
