First day (Last part)

Waking back from the mandir. He heard the sound of footsteps, like someone was following him. So he turned around and found no one, so he again continued moving towards the administration building.

While a dark hand stuck out from behind a tree standing beside the street, a vertical eye looked at him and then looked at the opposite side of the road, where a man stood hiding behind the trunk of the tree. The eye on the hand slowly narrowed as it disappeared back into the shadow.

[Grand Central library]

Chandraka stood before the central library, looking at the five-floor tower-shaped building with a conical top marked with the symbol of a swastika situated at the top of the entrance. This is where all cultivation methods are stored. The rows of students going in and out, with two guards standing around the entrance and exit,

Walking towards the entrance, the guard looked at the red lanyard around his shoulders and didn't say anything.

Entering the building, he looked at rows of wooden shelves standing behind the four reception desks, with a door beside them.

Each reception desk serves different purposes.

Desk one was for cultivation methods and skills, while others were for military tactics and warfare, Government administration, and history with philosophical study.

These four are the main domains of university student learning, and all students have to go through them.

The university doesn't only exist to create soldiers but also focuses on the all-round development of a person who can not only fight but also command people, be able to make hard decisions in critical conditions in a warfield, and understand the philosophy of war and power.

He went to desk number one and entered the cultivation section of the library.

Internal cultivation techniques are available on the first floor, while the ground floor is for body refining methods.

Walking up the stairs, he finally arrived at this destination and found that the entire section was empty, with only an old registrar sitting, who opened his eyes in response to his arrival.

"Young man, what type of inner energy cultivation method are you looking for?" asked the old registrar.

"I would like to have a look through them if you don't mind."

He observed him for a moment and nodded his head in disappointment.

Having served as registrar, he had met many indecisive students who couldn't determine their path, but he didn't care about it.

Seeing his reaction, Chandraka walked to the first shelves and looked at the titles of the books.

Ten sun-embroidered bodies was the title of the book, and I went ahead to touch it. The next moment, he was left completely shocked as information from the book with its profound meaning entered his mind and became part of his memories, like he had known this method for as long as he could remember.

He also understands the loopholes and disadvantages of the method.

At the same time, the sudden appearance of a blue inscription on the surface of the golden ring didn't go unnoticed by his eyes, which slowly faded away after some time.

"Just what is going on here? This…this…ring has the ability to transfer information from a book directly into one's mind. How can my grandfather not have told me about it? Wait, did he even know that the ring has such a kind of ability?" Thoughts rang in his mind while he looked at the ring and then at the next book.

The same time as before occurred again this time. Yet he had a different type of feeling. The methodology in his mind was changing, like the two methods were making up for each other's flaws and becoming more and more profound and perfect.

He looked at the rows of rows and selves around him with thousands of cultivation methods that create a variety of foundations for later stages of cultivation, including some of the most unique ones that cannot be found in other universities.

He looked at the ring and guessed that it was helping him create a general and most basic internal energy method.

One cannot underestimate the power of this kind of technique. Throughout the length and breadth of Bharat, people have different types of physiology, and there is no internal cultivation method that is suitable for all people, causing the creation of so many methods that are later cultivation path-oriented but no cultivation that focuses on making the perfect foundation.

What does a perfect foundation mean? Just imagining it made his entire body tremble in excitement.

As he continued walking and touching the various books, he moved forward to the next one.

After two hours of hard work, he was finally able to get a complete cultivation method of the foundation building technique of the ranked warrior stage, but he was still not satisfied. He realized that the method was still not flawless. The cause was the lack of foundation technique for the body refinement stage, which can help create the foundation for the ranked warrior stage. So he plans to go to the lower stage to look at the books on the ground floor.

The registrar looked at him with a weird expression.

He had long noticed that Chandraka did not open a single book during his time in the library; instead, he was walking around the entire floor, touching every book he could find.

Chandraka looked at the old man with his deep black eyes, like he can penetrate into the internal structure of the old man, before he left the floor and went downstairs

He didn't notice it at first, but after creating the perfect ranked warrior stage cultivation method, he realized that the person before him was an old warrior whose cultivation foundation was full of hidden flaws that he couldn't make up for at this current stage of cultivation.

Which he is not allowing him to step into the further stages; instead, it is falling with his aging body.

If he forcefully tries to go further, his entire cultivation base will collapse.

On the ground floor, he spent another four hours browsing through the entire floor before he left the building.

The sun was already at the top of his head, with air full of humidity touching his body and droplets of sweat appearing on his forehead as he walked towards the student residential area.

When he suddenly stopped around an empty alley and looked behind.

"Can you come out now? I already know that you've been following me since this morning," said Chandraka, causing his voice to echo throughout the silent alley.

When he heard the sound of footsteps coming from the corner, a tall man wearing a slim Texaco-style black suit with a wooden staff in his hand revealed himself before his eyes with a yellow lanyard around his right shoulder.

Telling him that he is a second-year student.

"Who are you? Why have you been following me?" Chandaka asked with a curious tone full of alertness.

He looked at him and smiled, saying, "You don't have to be so alarmed; I mean so much harm, and congratulations for finding a mentor. I am Kurush, a second-year student and leader of the Purush guild. I am here to invite you to join our guild."

"Sorry, but I am not interested in joining any group. So, stop following me from now on, or I will report you to the student discipline council." Chandraka responded as he turned around to walk away but was blocked by Kurush.

"Think about it for a moment. You are a new student and have a high need for resources to speed up your cultivation, but you don't have the ability to do any missions to gain them or any channel to acquire resources. I am willing to give you three thousand points per month as a basic payment on the condition that you join us. It's the highest offer any group will be willing to make. What do you think?" Kurush asked with eagerness in his eyes.

Though he said so, three thousand points per month is way above the mark of any student guild willing to pay to convince a new student to join his guild. His guild is only a second-class guild with fewer than ten members who are mostly focused on high-end strength. It's only recently that they have found a mid-level resource ground full of energy stones in the Divi mountain around Kuru's empire boundary that he has decided to expand the guild.

It was then that he got to know secret information from his informant channel: a kingdom representative of the Matsya kingdom has joined our university today and chose to make his move before other guilds do, but who would have thought that he would find a mentor within a few hours of entering the university, causing him to become impatient and give out his cover before him.

Yet, he is more determined than before to make Chandraka join his guild. A person who is resourceful enough to find a mentor within two hours of joining the university who is also a senior mentor level one is definitely a super talent, or why would a mentor take him in without testing him first. He remembered how he had to go through a competition with hundreds of students to get the acknowledgement of his mentor, even after being the top among the new students of his year.

Chandraka looked at Kurush with a troubled expression.

He is aware of the guild system within the university but doesn't want to become part of it. Due to the intense competition and conflict of power among various guilds.

A student like him who has just entered the university with the intention of finding the solution to his present body condition. But still, he knows that sooner or later, more and more representatives from other guilds will come to recruit him and may even find trouble with him.

Thinking about it for a moment. He looked at Kurush and spoke.

"I am willing to join your guild, but on the condition that you have to provide me with something else. I don't need three thousand points instead…" paused Chandraka and whispered the next sentence in his ears, causing him to stare at him.

"If you agree to my condition, then we can discuss further or don't disturb me," said Chandhan as he left him standing there with a bitter look.

"It looks like I have to discuss it with others. He is really not an easy person to acquire, but it's not impossible. We just have to bleed a little to make it happen." thinking so, he left while he didn't notice that a tiny hand with an eye was observing him and Chandhan throughout their exchange.
