In the City Hall, Golden Hawk City,
Time continued to pass, and one day passed by in a flash since the Ancient Voice's world announcement regarding the World Assessment.
Leo was sitting cross-legged in his room as small shiny dots slowly but steadily entered his body.
‘Ding,
The host received 100 units of Starlight Energy.
‘Ding,
The host's Starlight Dantian is full. Please delete it before continuing your Starlight Cultivation.
‘Phew…it's time to become the rank 4 Starlight Cultivator.'
Leo opened his eyes when he received the system notification.
After one day of his cultivation, Leo's after-effects of traveling between the worlds had disappeared entirely, and he felt he was physically and mentally full of energy.
‘This Starlight Cultivation is truly a good refresher.'
The main reason why Leo cultivates, even though it is time-consuming, is not because he wants to increase his strength; instead, he refreshes his mind and removes the exhaustion from his body.
Upgrading his cultivation with the absorbed Starlight Energy was a bonus because even if he wanted to use his starlight cultivation in the fight, it was useless, and he would be defeated in no time.
Moreover, he did not need to use the Starlight Cultivation's strength when he had powerful special talents and a wide range of skills.
‘I want to use 3000 units of Starlight Energy to upgrade my strength to level 4.'<sub>.</sub>
Since his Starlight Dantian was full, he could use the starlight energy to upgrade his cultivation. So, he asked the system to upgrade.
‘Ding,
Consumed 3000 units of Starlight Energy for upgrading the host's cultivation.
‘Ding,
The host needs at least one Elite cultivation technique. Please upgrade one of your Basic cultivation techniques to become a Rank 4 Starlight Cultivator.
‘Huh?'
However, unlike before, Leo's cultivation didn't upgrade; instead, the system asked him to upgrade one of his cultivation techniques.
‘Ding,
The cultivation techniques require the same units of Starlight Energy, similar to upgrading his cultivation rank.
‘Ding,
For Example, a level 1 cultivation technique requires 1000 units of Starlight Energy to upgrade into a level 2, the same amount needed for the host to become a rank 2 Starlight Cultivator.
‘Oh. So, I can upgrade them using Starlight Energy.'
Leo didn't think much about it since he was not in a hurry to become a powerful Starlight Cultivator.
Even if he wanted to, it would take years for him to accomplish that feat because the required units of Starlight Energy were increasing with each rank upgrade.<sub></sub>
Additionally, he had to upgrade the Cultivation Techniques along with it.
Therefore, Leo didn't take much stress about it and checked the four secondary cultivation techniques collected from the Starlight Library.
‘Ding,
Secondary Cultivation Techniques:
1) Starlight Rapid Fists (level 1), (Attack).
2) Starlight Steps (level 1), (Movement).
3) Starlight Golden Armour (level 1), (Defence).
4) Starlight Severing Sword Strike (level 1) (Weapon).
‘I think I know which Cultivation technique I need to upgrade.'
After seeing the list of the secondary cultivation techniques, Leo slightly smiled as he thought of something.
‘Once my dantian is full, I will upgrade it.'
Since Leo had already decided which secondary cultivation technique he had to upgrade, he closed the interface.
‘System, can I upgrade my Main Cultivation Technique [Special Starlight Refining Technique] using the Starlight Energy?'
Since his main cultivation technique was only a [Bronze Grade] and it already gives good active and passive Starlight Energy, Leo wanted to upgrade it further to get even more units of Starlight Energy per hour.<sub></sub>

At that time, Leo could upgrade its cultivation and cultivation techniques very easily.
‘Ding,
The host was able to upgrade his cultivation and the cultivation techniques because of the Main Cultivation Technique.
‘Ding,
The host can't upgrade the Main Cultivation technique by using its effect. Please find a way to upgrade it.
‘So, it was because of the [Special Starlight Cultivation Technique].'
Until now, Leo thought he was able to upgrade his cultivation using Starlight Energy because of the system; however, he was a little surprised to learn the truth.
‘I wonder why the [Starlight Library] gave me such a valuable cultivation technique when there was a tribe full of Starlight people?'
Leo thought about it; however, he could not find the reason, and even the system didn't say making.
In the end, Leo shook his head and stopped wasting his time thinking about it as he had other things to do.
‘The world assessment is coming; I need to speed up my plans.'
Since he had fully recovered both physically and mentally, Leo stood up from his bed.
Even though he needed Starlight Energy to upgrade his cultivation and the cultivation technique, Leo no longer cultivated because he had fully recovered.
As for upgrading the cultivation, he would let Starlight Energy accumulate in his body passively and use it to upgrade his cultivation technique until his world's World Assessment finished.
‘My Floating City will reach Starlight City in two days. I have to enter the [God Ruins] and finish exploring it in those two days.'
Besides exploring the [God Ruins], Leo had two things to do in Starlight City. Therefore he decided to wrap the things inside the [God Ruins] within two days.
‘Should I bring some followers into the [God Ruins] with me?'
After informing the city manager, Selphie, Leo was about to leave the Golden Hawk city to enter the [God Ruins] in the Uncleared Land of the Starlight City.
However, he suddenly thought of something when he looked at some Beast/Monster followers lazing in the city.
"Victor,"
Leo thought about it and called the Shadow Vampire King.
‘Swoosh'
In the next second, a shadow materialized into a handsome young man, who respectfully called Leo "Master."
"I will take those three monsters to the [God Ruins] for a few days. If you have other plans for them, forget what I asked."
Even though Leo could order and take the three monster leaders under Victor's command, Leo didn't want to disrupt Victor's plans.
"Even though I have some special training for them in the [Uncleared Lands] after a few days, it's alright! Compared to my special training, entering the [God Ruins] might give more boost in their strength."
Victor thought about it and respectfully replied to Leo.
In a [God Ruins], if someone was lucky, they might become a supreme-ranked hero overnight. Since Leo was planning to bring his followers into the [God Ruins], Victor was more than happy and agreed.
"You can go back and do whatever you are doing."
Leo smiled slightly and nodded before calling the three Monster/ Beast leaders.
‘Since the otherworldly beings that saved this world in the past don't belong solely to the human race, it is better to take other races along with me.'
‘Moreover, the [God Ruins] were left by them; there might be a few things for the Monsters and the Beasts in the [God Ruins] who became companions with the humans.'
Leo had reasons for taking the three rank 9 monster/ Beast leaders along with him.
‘Ding,
The host's talent [Call of the Undead] has successfully completed its mutation.
‘Ding,
The host's talent [Absolute Devour] has successfully upgraded to Supreme class.
