Over the next month, the people of Parachenko Village saw a change within people's demeanour.
Some people seemed happier, others more jubilant, some more expectant while most just seemed more.... content with life.
The new round of Fae Masters had been born and the talented individuals had caused the future of Parachenko to see brighter, more effervescent than it previous did.
Under the pressure of a new talented individual, one possessing one of the Thirty Three Sovereign Boundary Physiques, a brilliant desire had overtaken the new generation of Fae Masters, in order to not lose out to Andrea and her abilities.
It only took Andrea another 9 days after she awakened her Boundless Forest Yearning Sovereign Boundary Physique to become a liquid quartz origin essence Fae Master.
He ease and accomplishments of the Thirty Three Sovereign Boundary Physiques were an eye opener for the rest of her classmates.
Randolf took another 5 days after her to reach liquid quartz origin essence, while Alina took another 10 days after that.
Borik and Ratimir could feel the pressure from these three, considering that they were still at vapour quartz origin essence stage and increasing the time that they could cultivate by several fold. Their grandparents even excused them from the Lectures, so that they could focus on increasing their cultivation.
As for Arthur-.
"I'm about halfway to solid quartz origin essence, give or take about 3%".
Each stage of cultivation was harder than the previous, and took a longer time as well.
Condensing vapour origin essence into liquid origin essence was relatively simple, but condensing liquid origin essence into solid origin essence took even more time.
Hadron quartz origin essence and zero quartz origin essence would take more than double the time it takes for one to reach solid quartz origin essence, and even someone like Andrea with one of the Thirty Three Sovereign Boundary Physiques would need to consolidate her foundation so that her future cultivation isn't damaged.
Arthur had the advantage of having the bloodseeker leaf fae, but in the face of the Boundless Forest Yearning, it was still lacklustre.
"My cultivation has become smoother now that I have something to aim towards. A desire for strength alone wasn't enough. With the goal of the Thirty Three Sovereign Boundary Physiques in my mind, it seems that my demonic path has finally consolidated itself....".
Arthur smiled, letting out a breath of turbid air.
"The seeds I planted in the forest should sprout soon. Even if the blood essence gathering tree doesn't succeed, I can always change my tactics and use "that" instead".
In order to obtain one of the Thirty Three Sovereign Boundary Physiques, several requirements needed to be fulfilled before then.
Some of those requirements included Fae that Arthur needed, and had exchanged the vast majority of his Spirit Water in exchange for origin essence stones in order to purchase some of these materials.
He was worried that the Fae he wanted to create wouldn't form since they belonged to another Continent, but purchased some simple materials in order to create a Fae from the Crimson Wrath Continent.
They were only mortal Ranked Fae materials, so they could be found on every Continent, yet, under Arthur's watch and influence, the Fae created was undoubtably not from this Azure Envy Continent.
"It's only a simple flash fae, however flash fae from the Crimson Wrath Continent are red in colour. They might produce a white light, but the colour of the fae itself is red. Flash fae from the Azure Envy Continent are blue in colour".
There was a myth about if one gathered flash fae from every one of the Seven Continents, they could form an Immortal Fae which created a heavenly rainbow.
This heavenly rainbow could lead Fae Masters towards a hidden treasure left behind by one of the legendary Rank 9 Fae Immortals.
"Whether or not this is true doesn't really matter. All I need to know is that I am no longer limited by the heavenly laws in the Azure Envy Continent. I can create fae from every Continent and am only limited by materials when forming Fae".
Other than Arthur's knowledge, this was his greatest boon.
Even though he had managed to figure out how he was reincarnated into his younger body, there was no logical explanation was to why the heavenly laws weren't affecting him.
Whether or not this would have drastic implications down the line, Arthur could only speculate.
"So long as no-one else knows about this, I should be fine. The distance from Winter Rain Mountain isolated from the other Continents is so far, no mortal could ever make the journey in a single lifetime. Those merchants that come to Winter Rain Mountain probably haven't even heard of the bloodseeker leaf fae, let alone some of the other things I have in store".
Arthur's plans went far beyond the comprehension of even a Rank 5 Fae Master. They had yet to experience the vastness of the world, and had only reached the peak of the Fae Master world. They couldn't even imagine the powers of someone just one Rank higher than them.
How deep the waters of the Fae Immortal world were? Only a Fae Immortal could know.
Most Fae Masters only lived for a hundred years, and those that could find fae that increased lifespan or slowed down the effects of time on them were extremely rare.
No Fae Immortal would waste such things on Fae Masters.
They would rather use it for themselves!
At any rate-.
"Obtaining the Boundless Forest Yearning Sovereign Boundary Physique is my main goal. To do this, I need a plethora of Fae, as well as the strength to subdue the Boundless Forest Yearning Sovereign Boundary Physique. I might also have to leave Parachenko Village earlier than I want to".
If one of the nearby Sects hear about someone in the countryside possessing one of the Sovereign Boundary Physiques, they would immediately try and reel them into their Sect.
Even if it met kidnapping them and taking them by force.
There were certain events in the future that Arthur didn't want to miss out on, and might have to risk some of his future gains in order to obtain.
The beast tide at the end of this year would be one event in which massive gains could be earned.
For that particular event, Arthur needed to increase his cultivation to at least the peak of Rank 1 in order to gain a foothold on the battlefield. Anything below that would be used as cannon fodder.
Arthur tapped his fingers together quietly, waiting for the current Lecture to end.
He had waited for this day for over a month, biding his time carefully and planting more than just "literal" seeds in the forest outside the Village.
He had been working on a new angle inside the Village as well.
".... and that is why the difference between the water wheel fae and the whirlpool fae could the difference between defeating and killing your opponent. That is all for today students, I will see you after weekend".
Most of the students present immediately left the classroom, heading straight home to increase their cultivation.
Ever since both Randolf and Alina had reached liquid quartz origin essence the other, less talented students seemed to have their own innate desires sparked.
'Even if we can't compete in cultivation speeds with them, if we can at least match their strength, perhaps we can beat them!', they all thought.
Andrea was excluded from this group, considering she had the Boundless Forest Yearning Sovereign Boundary Physique.
In terms of talent, if Randolf was a genius, than Andrea was a monster.
No-one other than Arthur or Randolf would be able to catch up to her, and no-one would be able to match her future prospects.
Arthur smiled for a second, feeling a gaze on him before glancing towards Andrea near the front of the room.
The girl realised that Arthur had noticed where she was looking and turned slightly red in the face, opting to turn her head in the completely opposite direction.
Arthur didn't say anything, but felt his cheeks turn hot for a second, looking back out the window.
Multiple people noticed this little.... display and shook their heads and sighed at the implication.
'It seems that someone has a little crush!'.
Randolf narrowed his eyes as he looked at Arthur, showing an expression of confusion.
For some reason, this didn't seem like what the.... "normal" Arthur would do.
In front of at least one third of the class, Arthur took a deep breath and stood up, walking over to Andrea with a slightly embarrassed expression on his face.
His older sister, Chensa raised an eyebrow, but couldn't help but smile at her adorable little brother.
'Arthur is still a kid after all', she thought.
When Arthur walked past Andrea's desk, he stopped and turned to look at her, scratching the back of his head.
It seemed like what any normal fifteen year old would do when slightly flustered.
He opened his mouth to speak.
"Um... Andrea?".
The girl lifted her head, her face also red and not daring to meet Arthur in the eye.
Her thoughts were running at a million miles per hour right now.
"Uh, yes Arthur?".
The completely "normal" fifteen year old boy took a deep breath before looking at his "crush" dead in the eye.
"Would it be alright if I asked you, if you wanted to.... go out with me this evening?".
