Chapter 159: Elder Eagor's request

'Eek eek?'

After picking the fruit, the baby fire monkey glanced at the old man Fionk to see what he was planning; however, he stopped paying attention to it as he walked out of his cultivation abode.

Nevertheless, it didn't bother much before trying to eat the fruit in its hand.

'Thud'

However, the moment it smelled the fruit, the baby fire monkey fell to the side and started snoring without a care in the world.

"Trying to act smart with your sad look? Now, you will sleep until you absorb all the energy from the fruits you consumed so far,"

After hearing the sound of fruit falling to the ground, the old man Fionk entered his cultivation abode and muttered in a low tone.

All the fruits that the old man Fionk had given to the baby fire monkey were very beneficial to the beasts and the baby fire monkey only ate them but didn't absorb the energy from it. So, he used a sleep-inducing fire element fruit to forcefully put the baby fire monkey to sleep.

'Since it has celestial bloodline, it could naturally absorb all the energy in its body even when it is asleep,'

The old man Fionk muttered in a low voice before once again out of his cultivation abode.

As for how he knew that the baby fire monkey had the 'Celestial Monkey King' bloodline even when the system hid it very well, no one knows.

"Master...master...good news"

Just as he came out of his cultivation abode, the old man Fionk saw one of his disciples, Elder Franz rushed towards him with an excited look on his face.

"What is it? Did someone achieve it?"

Seeing the excited look on Elder Franz's face, Fionk could guess it was related to the event and asked him.

"Yes"

Elder Franz vigorously nodded his head as he continued, "Guess what, Master. It is not a single disciple who achieved it but five disciples did that. Five spirit beasts from the 'Altar of the forest' chose them and used the forceful contract."

"Haha...good,"

The old man Fionk started laughing as he thought, 'Finally, heavens are blessing me today with many things.'

He felt he was extremely lucky because he got the blood essence from the baby fire monkey and now he had the five disciples who would definitely reach the Grandmaster realm with little effort.

"Your disciples are in them, right?"

Old man Fionk asked about Gregory and Filip.

"Yes, master, Along with those two, the disciples of first, third and fourth elders got thee forceful contract from the special beasts,"

Elder Franz explained more about the event as he continued, "I am guessing that we might easily get another 10 or so disciples with the forceful contract from those beasts."

"Good...good. You can go back and oversee the process and inform me after a week,"

Soon, the old man finished his words and looked at the peak of the 'Twin fire mountain' and muttered to himself, 'Just you wait. Soon, my beast mountain will prove what it can do.'

...

In Elder Eagor's room,

"Elder Eagor, since you are now a cultivator, I can say you a few things,"

After having their dinner, Elder Eagor and Henrick sat on the chairs as they were discussing something before Elder Eagor finally said to Henrick with a serious look on his face.

"Huh? What is it, Elder Eagor?"

Seeing the sudden serious look on Elder Eagor's face, Henrick asked with curiosity.

"When you reach the energy condensation realm, you have to choose a profession," 

Soon, Elder Eagor continued explaining, "Only choose a profession that you like."

"Huh? Yes, Elder Eagor. I will select a profession which I like,"

Henrick already knew about it. So, he nodded his head agreeing to Elder Eagor's words.

"One more thing, I heard there will the outer sect yearly competition in a month or so,"

Elder Eagor was not surprised that Henrick already knew about it and he said another thing.

'Oh'

Henrick intently listening without interrupting Elder Eagor.

"I want you to enter it and get a top 10 position in the tournament. Can you give it a try?"

Soon, Elder Eagor asked something that made Henrick raise his brows.

"I know it's too much to ask you about it; however, can you please do me a favour?" Seeing the frowning expression on Henrick's face, Elder Eagor bitterly smiled as he asked Henrick.

"Sure, I will give it a try,"

Henrick stopped thinking about it and nodded his head.

Elder Eagor helped him a lot when he was in the working disciples' courtyard. So, of course, he would agree to his request.

"But, can you explain to me how that is going to help you?"

After agreeing to Elder Eagor's request, Henrick asked him as he was unable to figure out anything from it.

"I will say it when you enter the top 10 in the outer sect yearly tournament. Until then, I can't say it, Henrick. I hope you understand,"

Elder Eagor shook his head as he didn't say any particular reason.

Henrick looked at Elder Eagor intently for a few seconds before nodding his head and said, "Okay then, I will ask you the reason after I finish the mission."

'Ding,

A new mission is issued. Please check it.

'Huh?'

All of a sudden, he got a system notification informing him about a new mission that made him curious.

"Thank you, Henrick,"

Elder Eagor heaved a sigh of relief after hearing his words and continued to say, "It's late, Henrick. Go and take some rest. We have six more days to talk."

Soon, he asked Henrick to go to sleep as he already knew that Henrick was going to stay here for the next six days.

"See you, Elder Eagor,"

Henrick hurriedly went to his room as he had many things to do now.

'I hope he can win the tournament. Then I take revenge on those who betrayed me,'

After Henrick left for his room, Elder Eagor clenched his fists as he silently thought in his head.

…..

'System, show me the new mission,'

As soon as he entered his room for the next six days, Henrick asked the system to show his new mission.

'Ding,

Mission:- Rank the tournament.

Details:- Enter the top 10 in the outer sect's yearly tournament.

Reward:- A new system feature.

Description:- The outer sect's yearly tournament is a contest with various tests with danger in each and every test; however, the rewards in winning the tournament is also very huge.

'So, the mission is about the tournament,' Henrick was not surprised much with the system issuing this mission; however, there was something that was bothering him.

'If the tournament is within one month, then why did the master didn't say anything about it?' Until now, Henrick still didn't understand why his master was making him know things about sect or cultivation from others like Nick or Elder Eagor?

'Sigh...thinking about it only gives me a headache,'

Soon, he didn't bother to think about it and relaxed on the bed.

'Ding,

Today's daily missions are not completed by the master yet.

'Ding,

The day has just ended and the daily missions are deemed as failed.

'What the...'
