The Oracle Ruler

1254 Pushups.

"Nora, why is it that some of my cultivation manual sections and the soul section are locked?. I can also see that my bloodline and physique have not been awakened. What do all these mean?" Bradley asked Leonora.

[As for your cultivation manual and soul manual, they are locked because you haven't awakened your bloodline. When you awaken your bloodline, your physique will automatically awaken, and the cultivation manuals within your bloodline will be unlocked. That is when your cultivation path will begin. The reason why the section of your defence and movement techniques is empty is because mortals don't possess Spiritual Qi which they can infuse into the vein and pulse in the feet to increase their agility or movement and they can't create or enhance their defence since they don't have Spiritual Qi. They can only train to toughen their body and also make them reflexive. But as for you, you are special. There are a lot of anomalous things about you, but as time goes on, you will come to know of them, First, you need to raise your body cultivation to at least tier 4 before attempting to awaken your bloodline.] Leonora explained to him.

"Okay, I will train hard for that."

[Good to hear that. Now take the Bone Cleansing Pill and consume it.]

"How do I do that?" Bradley asked.

[You just need to think of it, and it would appear in your hand.] Replied Leonora.

Bradley did what was told by thinking of the pill appearing in his hand and within a split second, a white pill with faint golden lines around it. The pill emitted a fragrance that made Bradley swallow several mouthfuls of saliva.

[Go on swallow it.]

Bradley, who wanted to swallow the pill from the moment it landed in his hand, hurriedly tossed the pill into his mouth.

He felt the pill melting the moment it entered his throat. A cool sensational feeling could be felt in his bones. He was so drawn into this feeling that his mind couldn't register anything apart from that.

[Hehehe!! Can't wait to see his expression when the pill takes effect] Leonora giggled and said.

As time went on, Bradley noticed that there was a gradual change in the feeling he was experiencing to the opposite. A frown appeared on his face when he noticed the change.

The essence of the pill had finally entered his bones, and it was time for the cleaning of the bones and strengthening the bone marrow, too.

To do that, the impurities in the bones need to be extracted with force, which will always bring pain to the consumer of the pill.

"Ahhh!!! F-fuck!!"

The abrupt change made him experience a pain that was similar to the one on the Earthen Force Mat. Bradley felt like his bones were being cooked inside a volcano. From his skull to his toe bones, all that he felt was an unquenching fire cooking his bones.

If Bradley knew that Leonora was actually rejoicing in his suffering, you would have cursed her several times already.

It took 2 hours for the effect of the pill to complete his work.

[Ding]

[You've successfully advanced to level 2 Body Refinement.]

"Haaa!!" He exhaled a black gas from his mouth. He noticed that his body was covered with a black smelly fluid.

"Were all these in my bones?" He asked himself. He later rushed to the washroom to clean himself again. He changed his clothes and lay on his bed.

"Show me my stats, Nora."

[ (Body Cultivation)

Level: Level 2 Body Refiner

Strength: 48

Agility: 54

Intelligence: 72

Health: 100/100

Stamina: 60

Perception: 60 ]

"What the..." He was surprised that his stats doubled after he broke through and became a Tier Two Body Refiner.

[A normal body refiner at level two is supposed to have a stat like this..

Strength: 16

Agility: 18

Intelligence: 24

Health: 100/100

Stamina: 20

Perception: 20 ]

[But since you aren't normal and due to some reasons which you are not aware of, your strength is thrice that of some in the same level as you. Although your stats are comparable to those of those in the 5th or 6th level but don't try or think of fighting them. You will die before you know. Your limit should be at most 2 levels above you.]

"Okay." He said before he prepared to go to bed.

"Bang!! Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!!"

Everybody was woken up by the noise that was coming from an unknown direction. It was 4:30 in the morning at that time.

"All novices should assemble on the training field within a minute. But on your uniform before you get there."

They heard a deep, manly voice from the unknown.

"How are we supposed to dress up and get there within a minute?" Asked one of the novices.

Bradley lay on his bed as if he hadn't heard what was going on.

He yawned and stretched his body for relaxation.

[Get up, you lazy cocoon. It is your first day here, and you are trying to be lawless? ]

Bradley got up and went to the washroom to brush his teeth and take a shower. After that, he wore his uniform and headed out to the training field. He saw no one on his way to the training field. It seemed they all were already there.

"Good day, newbies!"

"Good day, sir!!" The parade responded to one of the ten seniors on the mounted stage on the training field.

"Before we start with today's activities, I would like you to give yourselves numbers for me to know if there is anyone absent." One of the seniors said.

"Sir, yes, sir!!" They screamed out.

"1,2,3.....50....290...909...1199."

The last person who was 1199 shouted his number out.

"I remember we were told to train 1200 novices, so who the hell is abs.."

"1200!!" Before the one conducting the roll call could finish what he was saying, they heard someone calmly stating the number 1200.

Everyone present turned towards the source of the voice that they heard.

It was then that they saw a breathtaking, handsome guy leisurely walking towards them.

"Who are you?" The one in charge asked Bradley with a hint of anger and jealousy in his voice.

"I'm novice number 1200, and I'm here for my first training with you guys," Bradley replied calmly, and that made not only the one in charge furious but the other seniors and some of the novices, especially the males.

"Oh, so you think you are above the law, right? I will show you that over here, I'm the law, and you can't be above me. For being late, you'll be punished by doing pushups for the number of seconds you spent before coming here. Thus, 1254 pushups. Now get down and start your punishment!"

"Sir, yes, sir!" Bradley smiled devilishly at him and said.
