Chapter 764 - Just Bored

One might think that Rean has obtained a lot of materials from his blacksmithing gig during his time in the Demon Beast City. However, what he got were all Heaven-level ones. It was simply impossible to use them for those at the Core Formation Realm and below in the Freedom Sect. With that said, they needed lower-level ones.

Fortunately, it wasn't as if Kentucky couldn't identify their locations. It's just that Kentucky never cared about any ore below the Heaven-level. Malo then requested him to at least point the directions where they could find ores so that missions could be given to the sect members. That's how they found most of the low-level materials for Rean to start his teachings.

Three weeks soon went by, and everything proceeded smoothly. Of course, the Freedom Sect still lost one or another member during the missions. After all, although they cleaned the Five Peaks area, the rest of the surroundings was still the territory of the demon beasts. It took some time until these events stopped.

Eventually, Rean stopped cultivating together with Roan as the two came out of their rooms. Malo had already built most of the wooden buildings that Rean and Roan requested for the side occupations. The good thing was that both Rean and Roan predicted that they would need more tools for the teaching, so the Dimensional Realm had a lot of them. Forgers, cauldrons, anvils, mortars, and other related items, they already had them.

On Rean's side, he decided to hold one class for Blacksmithing and one class for Formations each day. On the other hand, Roan only knew Alchemy, so he used the same time to teach it alone.

The first class was Blacksmithing, so Rean brought everyone to one of the big forging buildings that were built for it. "Hmm...sure enough, Blacksmithing isn't very popular among women," Rean said as he looked at the participants. The Blacksmithing, Alchemy, and Formations courses were not obligatory. With that said, anyone could choose to participate or not. There was no lack of cultivators out there that didn't know a single thing about any side occupation whatsoever.

Rean's Blacksmithing class had 209 participants. Of these 209, 95 were men. One must remember that of the initial 3589 kids rescued, only 187 of them were men. The rest were women. For 95 of the 187 males to appear in the Blacksmith Side Occupation Class while only 114 of the 3002 women came showed the huge difference in interest.

Rean then shrugged his shoulders before continuing, "Oh well, I'm still happy to see that we got this many. Alright, let's start. First, I'll teach you the basics about the tools we are using. After that, we'll jump to the basics of melting, molding, and tempering. Just so you know, none of you will do any forging today, so just pay attention."

Later on, the disciples left the Blacksmith building with many notes in their hands. As Rean looked at them leave, he couldn't help but think, 'I wonder how many of them will still be here one week later.'

Soon after, he quickly shook his head before heading to the next building, the one constructed for the Formations class. This time, the difference was as clear as day. There was a good number of men, with 41 of the 187 existing in the sect. However, there were 419 women, which was a stark contrast. 'Well, this was more or less the amount I expected. I believe that the difference is even bigger in Roan's class.'

Following that, Rean pointed at a room on the back of the building, telling him, "That is the Formations Repository. I gathered many books regarding formations over the years, and I'm proud to say that my collection has everything you need to go all the way to the Heaven-level. However, it will follow the same system as the books for Blacksmithing. You have one free hour to look at them per day. However, if you want to have more time, you will need Sect Points. Don't try to take the books out if you don't have the points. With my formation in place, you won't get very far."

This was another way of using the Sect Points to acquire rewards. Roan, of course, followed suit with the study materials for Alchemy. To make things fair, Rean added everyone in this rule, Malo included. Malo and the older sect members didn't mind it since they wanted to set an example.

"Alright, everyone. Let's start by working on what a rune is." Rean then took out a hundred books regarding the basics of formations and distributed them to the class. "Form groups of four or five people since there aren't enough books for everyone. This will also be good for you to discuss what you guys learned later."

Suddenly, a red streak of light passed by, stopping on the top of one of the tables. Rean narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Red, what do you want here?"

Obviously, it was the Blood Rabbit, Red Streak. "What's with the angry face? This Lord has some interest in this Formations class of yours. You should be honored."

Rean's mouth twitched for a moment, but he decided to not dwell on the issue. "Fine, you can learn as well. However, you can't intervene in my teachings, deal?"

Red nodded, saying, "You have a deal with this Lord."

The disciples of the sect felt a little apprehensive, though. After all, they all knew already that Red was a Stage Six Demon Beast, equivalent to a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator. Noticing that, Rean said a few more words, easing their worries, "There's no need to worry. Red won't do anything bad to you. You can treat him the same way you treat your friends."

Red didn't like that, though. "Who said anyone could treat this Lord in a friendly way?"

Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, "You do as I say, or you won't get to participate in the class. Also..." Rean then glanced at Red with a playful smile before continuing, "I'll cut your share of carrots in half if you cause problems."

Red's expression became dark as he said in response, "I dare you to do such a thing."

Rean shrugged his shoulders after hearing that, saying, "As long as you take the class without causing problems or acting all mighty, that won't happen."

Red narrowed his eyes for a moment before finally nodding. "Fine! This Lord will allow this kind of treatment."

Well, the truth was that Red was just bored...
