《Beast Cultivating System》Chapter 20 - Dumbfounded old man Zhao and Proposition towards Kaiden Evergreen
Advertisement
As Dana walked into old man Zhao's cultivation chamber, old man Zhao immediately opened his eyes awakening from meditation.
Standing up old man Zhao approached Dana, speaking with a reassuring tone he said;
"Mmm. Lass, have you got a problem comprehending the Ice Lotus Arts? You shouldn't worry if you struggle to comprehend it within a few days, as even though it's an auxiliary art it's very profound! I'm sure you'll eventually comprehend it within a year."
"Oh? No, it's not about that, I've come to discuss some other things with you." Dana retorted.
"Hmm? Then what do you want to ask me?" Old man Zhao said.
"I was wondering if you know a boy named Kaiden Evergreen, I heard some rumours regarding him to be a rare genius which even came from a common background, I've been wanting to discuss with him about something." Spoke Dana with a serious attitude.
"A boy? Girl you should waste less of your time spending it with boys and more time focused on cultivation, otherwise, you may not even be able to gain something from the Frost Lotus Arts all year! And also even though your a genius now, slacking off can cost you to waste your talent!"
Sternly reprimanded Old man Zhao completely misunderstanding Dana's reasoning behind finding Kaiden Evergreen.
"Old man don't get too caught up in that sort of fabrication you came up with. I don't want to find him for such foolish reasoning, I have other plans regarding something which I will have to do soon.," Spoke Dana with a bloodthirsty grin.
A pitying thought emerged in old man Zhao's for the poor boy which crossed Dana. "How about if you comprehend the First Stage of the Frost Lotus Arts, then I will tell you the location of the boy?" Compromised old man Zhao.
"Sure, is that all?" Quickly countered Dana activating the First Stage of Frost Lotus Arts indicating that she comprehended the First Stage, Dana decided not to show the old man she comprehended the Second Stage as he may have a heart attack from the shock thought Dana not knowing that she had already caused this occurrence, judging from the frozen appearance of old man Zhao's.

Right when old man Zhao was about to reprimand her lubricious thoughts, a dumbfounded look emerged on old man Zhao's face. She's achieved the First Stage, impossible!
The Head Mistress took seven months and she was considered a shocking genius.
And Dana achieved this in a mere week? If he knew Dana done this in a mere day, what will old man Zhao's thoughts be then?
A monstrous genius! What type of shocking talent is this... but then a bitter thought emerged in old man Zhao's mind believing that Dana's talent has truly been wasted being raised in this place where she could have been groomed to be a top disciple of a Tier 4 power, as old man Zhao still believed Dana to be a Qi Circulation Rank 3 Cultivator.
Removing the dumbfounded look on his face old man Zhao replied, "Fine, you sure gave this old man a fright! But, I did give you my assurance, Kaiden Evergreen is in the east side of the academy and he attends the Top Lecturer's hall. Take this old mans badge and you can enter any location in the academy and it also provides you with the same authority as if this old man was present if you want to find that boy just find him in the lecture!"
"Thanks, old man" Retrieving the badge Dana quickly left towards the location old man Zhao said.
It looks like that she-devil is eager to torture that boy judging by the look on her face as she spoke about him sympathized old man Zhao, as a giddy Dana left the room not realizing old man Zhao's thoughts. If she did, maybe she would beat the old man to death for his assumption!
With old man Zhao's badge, Dana walked leisurely to the location described by old man Zhao. Ignoring the admiring looks of the students, Dana made her way to the Lecturer Hall as described. Noticing that the lecture was about to begin, Dana walked towards what she presumed to be the Lecturer.
"Excuse me" As Dana's voice sounded behind the Lecturer, he turned seeing an astonishingly beautiful woman before him.
"Yes? May I help you, young Miss?" The Lecturer spoke with an unrecognized look, he knew all the noble beautiful woman famed in the Capital, but this young miss doesn't match any of their descriptions.

As he would have surely heard of a woman this beautiful attending the Academy before, she must have either been permitted in joining late the Academy late for two different reasons, firstly talent or background.
And looking at the woman's cultivation before him the conclusion he came up with was talent, as looking towards the woman before him she has astonishingly already achieved Qi Circulation Rank 3 Cultivation, indicating she will likely be the brightest talent of the academy.
He knew the Headmaster has recently taken in a disciple and looking at the new incredible talent of this woman, made him realize this Young Miss was presumably the Headmasters disciple herself, which is why he instantaneously removed any form of arrogance which shows towards other students.
"Can I attend your lecture today? As I am new to this academy I have heard from my master this is the top class for the Academy, hearing the praise from my master I would like to participate, is this possible for me joining your class late?" Spoke Dana with a smile.
"Yes, of course. The Young Miss will always be welcomed into any of my lectures!" Eagerly said the Lecturer, who would be a fool not to take up the opportunity to have not only the Headmasters disciple but very likely the most talented individual in this Academy attend his lecture!
If he gains a favourable impression from her his status may rise heavily.
As a result of the clamouring of the Lecturer's alongside his excited appearance, the noble students soon took notice of the occurrence before them.
Upon seeing Dana looks of awe emerged from the students.
"Wow, what a beauty!" Spoke a young noble currently ogling Dana.
"Yeah, I previously thought Jiao Yi was a beauty with simple no comparison, but opposed to this girl she looks average!" Retorted a noble with an idolizing expression of his face.
"So what if she is beautiful, she probably only relied on her body to enter the academy anyways! I hear the Headmaster is a lusty old man, she probably slept with him to get into the academy in order to get in this late." Hatefully retorted some noble ladies, jealous of Dana's beauty.
Disregarding the chattering of the nobles, Dana entered the classroom awaiting for Kaiden to enter. As soon as she taken a seat, a group of handsome young nobles with relatively good cultivation for this continent was discussing who should approach her first.
After constant bickering, one of the nobles in the group, began to walk towards Dana with a confident expression on his face, obviously showing signs of being a highly experienced playboy.
However, after seeing the cold glare coming from Dana, he immediately turned towards the opposite direction heading back to the laughter of his friends.
After five minutes finally, the individual who she has been awaiting has arrived, with a casual look Dana approached towards the confused looking Kaiden Evergreen. The arrogant nobles seeing the beautiful girl taking the inactive to a commoner made them all glance hatefully towards Kaiden. If looks could kill, Kaiden would be dead a thousand times!
Kaiden feeling completely helpless towards the enmity directed at him, just as he was about to respond towards the beautiful girl which appeared before him, he was carried away like a rag doll as Dana dragged him out of the classroom under the flabbergasted looks of the nobles.
As Dana carried Kaiden effortlessly arriving at a quiet looking area, she released her grip which unfortunately for Kaiden ending up with her flinging him on the ground.
"Oh my bad, sometimes I don't know my own strength!," Expressed Dana.
Blushing from the proximity from such a beautiful girl, "It's alright, but can I ask you why some random beautiful girl kidnapped me?," Responded Kaiden.
"We have things to discuss Kaiden, and I have a proposition for you to get a chance at revenge upon the true person which caused the calamity of your family". Dana spoke with a ruthless declaration.
