The kids and the beasts are looking at each other curiously. All of them except Kasi and Devil dragon. The rest of the people are within Sam"s organization"s influence since they were born and didn"t have to get introduced to violence from a young age. But Kasi is different, Sam knew that this guy killed a couple of people even before awakening.


And as he looked at the Devil dragon, he could see that there is a sense of rivalry within them. Both of them are staring at each other"s eyes.


Sam couldn"t help but smile wryly.


They are off to a rough start and it would be hard for Kasi to make a contract with it.


He shook his head and looked at the rest of them before saying.


"From now on, these beasts are you, companions, in life and death. You would be cultivating with them. I have cultivation techniques for all of you that are compatible with the beasts, but to cultivate, you already know the first condition. You need to fill the sphere with your energy.


Now, I am giving you the second condition. You need to make sure that you managed to befriend your beast companion and make them willingly make a contract with you.


You wouldn"t get your cultivation technique until then. I have their favorite foods prepared in these spatial rings."


With that, he gave the rings to them and sent them back to the practice.


Everyone except Kasi of course.


"I need to tell you this. You must have already observed that the Devil Dragon is a bit troublesome. I will be honest with you. Your condition is a bit unique and there are almost no beasts that are compatible with you. The Devil Dragon is of a high-level bloodline even among the dragons.


But it is a bit compet.i.tive and cunning in its thinking. You need to win him over now since it is still a toddler.


Once it grows, it will be harder. I know I am asking too much and it might seem a bit unfair when compared to other students, but I have no choice. I cannot simply waste your potential, just to make it a bit easier for you.


So, try your best to win him over and ask me for help if you need it."


Kasi bowed to Sam and said.


"You don"t have to worry teacher. I know what to do. I will win him over for sure."


"Even after winning him over, you need to be careful a bit. You should never let him get hurt emotionally. Devil dragons are dangerous, whether they are allies or enemies. You need to trust him and you should make sure that he knows that.


If you cause it severe emotional pain, your soul could be devoured.


If you think it is too dangerous, I could take it back, but I am telling you that this is the best companion despite all the flaws."


"No need, teacher. I will keep him with me. I am sure we will get along fine."


He looked at the Devil dragon with a smirk that is not so pleasant.


Sam knew that some trouble is something he should be looking forward to.


After sending them away, Sam went back to build more cultivation chambers. Most of the crystal structure is created with the molded empty spirit stones and the structure is extremely demanding compared to anything he ever created when it comes to the structure.


He would take a long time even if he worked on it on the second floor on the divine dimension with the added time bonus he could have.


In the next month, he solely focused on making these devices. But he didn"t create an extra table operator, because he designed it to be connected to multiple pods at the same time.


In that one month, a lot of things happened with the students. He regularly taught basics, he made them constantly use energy with extreme precision and made sure that they don"t have any trouble with it and he also helped them get along with their beasts.


And to his surprise, the first one to get along with their beast is actually Kasi.


The Devil dragon which he thought would be more troublesome was actually won over by this guy.


Sam was surprised and shaken; he almost couldn"t believe that something like that is possible.


But it happened and Kasi rode on that wave as he finished the task Sam gave him which is to finish the sphere by the twentieth day.


Sam appreciated him in front of the remaining students and then gave him his cultivation technique. He wanted him to get familiar with it.


Seeing this the rest of the students also got riled up and started increasing their practice amount. They are still in the Initiation stage so sleepless nights will still exhaust them a little, particularly when they are constantly using energies.


But soon one after the other they finished the tasks and by the twenty-eighth day, they are all done with both filling the sphere and befriending their beasts.


Sam already gave the cultivation techniques so that they could familiarize themselves with them.


After the month has ended, Sam then took out the body refining technique which he made with the Ancient yoga and made them practice it every day.


For the next month, he didn"t take them to the cultivation chamber and only cultivate them naturally without any aid of the formation so that they would be able to get a clear picture of what they are doing and how the energy absorption works in normal conditions.


After one month of that training, he then took them to the cultivation chambers. He placed them all on his own floor within the tower and made them get inside as they cultivated. Their schedule slowly got packed with four hours of normal cultivation within the cultivation chamber, one and half hour body tempering function in the chamber and then another one and a half-hour body tempering outside, basic energy circulation for two hours, then the lesson on battle a.n.a.lysis for two hours, immunity training in the cultivation chamber for one hour. Training their beasts for another hour. The remaining time for resting, eating, and do whatever they wanted to do.


They are lucky that Sam didn"t directly throw them into the schedule and made them gradually understand it.


Sam supervised everything closely while he cultivated himself.


It has been a while since he solely focused on his training without any research and deadlines.


After another month like this, the team returned with the first batch of forced recruits.


There are around two dozen, Astral Plane Pre-transcendent cultivators from initial stage to the Peak stage and there are another dozen Astral Plane Transcendent cultivators who are in the Initial stage.


This is a great harvest. Sam threw them all on the chessboard and went through the reports.


They are all-powerful in their realms but most of them are tyrants and criminals. Some of them are a.s.sa.s.sins, some are rapists, some are leaders of the underground organizations, they don"t have anything good in the report.


Apart from this harvest, the team had brought around fifty cultivation techniques for which he was surprised. Along with the cultivation techniques, he would get from the people inside the chessboard after they are completely brainwashed, there are a total of eighty cultivation techniques at the moment.


That is a great addition to him.


After sending them back on their conquest.


Sam went back to training the students and training himself again.


They broke through the Acolyte stage in no time and are progressing levels faster than Sam.


Provided that he doesn"t have the same facilities and a proper training regiment and such, they are still faster than he was by a large margin.


After they broke through, Sam started teaching formations to them.


Even though he didn"t want them all to be the formation masters if they don"t want to be one, he wanted to teach the basics principles of the formations because they would be facing some serious formations that could simply kill them, and the more knowledge they have about formations the better.


Along with the formations, Sam started teaching some secondary things for the students. He picked a student one day and started training them in an aspect that could help their specialty. For Rangit the dwarf who is good at earth and fire element, Sam started the lessons at golem making and weapon smithy.


For Madhu, he started teaching healing and botany with the focus on understanding various plants and herbs along with genetic modifications so that she could create different kinds of seeds that could be grown into the kind of plants that could help her in the battle.


The modified soul-devouring vines he used in the realm of undead are a perfect example of the feats the seed modification can create.


For Arvi, he focused on healing as well as attacking. She already has partial fusion, so he started teaching how she could change the frequency and create different kinds of lasers that can cause different kinds of damage.


Like that, he focused on everyone so that they could focus on what they are good at as well as the basic training.
