Chapter 765 - Badges
Rean still found it strange that a demon beast like Red would want to learn formations. Nevertheless, he started his lessons. It started at the end of the morning and lasted into the afternoon before the cla.s.s was finally over.
Rean looked as the girls and boys left the enormous room and talked to each other about his cla.s.s, much to his satisfaction. However, what surprised him was the fact that Red really kept listening until the end. Not only that, but he also stopped to make a few questions of his own. "I thought he would leave after just a few minutes. After all, I just used the written lessons and theoretical knowledge. I didn"t touch any formation at all. Well, since it seems like he truly wants to learn, I guess I can only keep at it."
On Roan"s side, his cla.s.s was also over after some time. During the first day, he basically made everyone study the herbs in the books, trying to memorize their types and effects as much as possible. He basically stayed there to answer any possible question that the girls and boys might have.
As one could expect, Alchemy did a lot more to the girls" liking, although there were a few boys there as well. In total, there were over 700 girls, which made the 20 or so boys look as if they weren"t even there.
Roan noticed Rean coming in his direction before Rean asked, "So, how was your alchemy cla.s.s? Was it full of girls as we"ve expected?"
Roan nodded, replying, "Obviously. Not that it changes anything, though. I sent them to the herb garden after the cla.s.s was over so that they could put today"s practice to use. Now, let"s see how things are going to go a week later."
"A week later?" Rean was puzzled as he asked, "Aren"t you giving daily cla.s.ses?"
Roan shook his head this time, saying, "Of course not. In the end, you need to memorize the herbs and their effects before anything else. There are too many of them, even for a planet that has been cold most of the time. Before they can at least list 50% of the ones available in our books, there will be no point in doing any practical training."
Rean couldn"t help but laugh after hearing that. "Hahaha! So you ended up doing the same thing as me, huh? It"s just that I had my formations" students memorize the Earth Low-level runes instead of herbs. I guess only in blacksmithing will I be doing daily cla.s.ses."
"Don"t they need to memorize the materials used in blacksmithing?" Roan asked in confusion.
Rean shook his head, replying, "There aren"t many differences when it comes to blacksmithing. At least, not as many as runes for formations. For Earth Low-level ores and things like that, the processes are pretty much the same due to their uses."
Roan nodded, not minding it too much. Rean was the Blacksmithing expert, so it wasn"t his place to say otherwise. "Anyways, let"s use the rest of the day to cultivate."
"No, I need to finish crafting the Sect Tokens. At the moment, I"m the only one who can make them. Of course, I won"t keep doing only that. I"ll make a hundred or so today, then I"ll continue tomorrow," Rean said. "Once I finish this hundred, I"ll head back and cultivate."
Roan nodded and then disappeared right after. Since that was the case, he decided to check the herb garden in the Dimensional Realm. Unlike the herb garden made by the disciples, his own garden had a lot more rare herbs. Of course, the disciples" herb garden had many more herbs instead. After all, they all went out often and brought back what they could find.
Rean also went inside the Dimensional Realm since he had his own workshop there. Not to mention that the equipment there would give much better results.
There, Rean took out a piece of paper with two drawings. In the end, he left the sect"s emblem for Malo and the others to decide how it would look. On one side, it was very simple. There wasn"t anything more than a cloud and the name of the sect. Well, for a sect called Freedom, a cloud was indeed quite fit.
On the other, there was an emblem of a bird. Or, to be more specific, it was an image from Kentucky. "Just why would you select Kentucky?" Of course, Rean knew the real reason. "Alright, alright. Kentucky had always been popular among the girls. In a sect where most of the disciples are women, it makes sense that the dumb bird convinced them to do that."
Rean was right. Kentucky used the fact that they didn"t want him to be the sect leader to ask for that. By pretending to be sad, most of the girls quickly fell into his spell and voted to have his image on the back of the sect"s badge.
"Sigh...whatever. I did say they could choose anything, so I can"t complain." Rean then began to work on the badges one after another. It couldn"t simply be a piece of metal. It would also be connected to a Circuitry Formation Device that Rean created some time ago. Its use was very simple. It had a few other badges that Rean gave to the Sect"s "higher-ups," which could be used to record how many Sect Points a disciple had. So far, they had been using ink and paper, but they couldn"t keep it like that forever, right?
Rean eventually finished the first 100 badges and left the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. After that, he simply pa.s.sed the badges to Suana before saying, "Just use the authority badges you and the others have to save the users" names and ID numbers in these Disciple Badges. After that, you can add Sect Points into the Formation Core based on each person"s name and ID number. Once a disciple accesses a terminal in any of the Sect"s buildings, it will show him how many Sect Points they have. As for what they intend to do with it, that"s their problem to deal with."
Suana nodded as she sighed in relief, thanking Rean as she said, "I can finally get rid of all those papers. Thank you, Senior Rean."
Rean smiled in response before turning around and returning to the cultivation room. Roan was already there. They might be teaching the disciples, but they wouldn"t forget their own cultivation either.
Time pa.s.sed in a flash as another month went by. Rean and Roan had just finished another round of cultivation with Kentucky and Celis when suddenly, Roan felt a token on his waist tremble with energy. Roan quickly took it out before spreading his Spiritual Sense to talk with Rean, Kentucky, and Celis. "We have a new mission."
That token was given by the Demon Beast Alliance so that they could be warned about the war missions. It was a lot better than having someone always delivering jade slips with their mission on it. Of course, that was thanks to their high performance as well.
Rean"s group then gathered close to Celis to discuss it. "This token is really convenient. So, what does it say?"
Roan nodded before taking it out for everyone to see. Rean"s group then sent their Spiritual Sense inside when suddenly, their expression turned weird.
