"Also, the mana core is where all the mana we have accumulated is stored, and the reason why we don't store mana in our body like we do for a mana core is that, once the mana becomes too much the body would explode. While I am talented, it's only thanks to the inner circle giving me rank 4 body cultivation technique, that I was able to advance my mana core from rank 2 to rank 3."
Bruce looked at him for a moment, before he continued his explanation.
"Remember I said I was at rank 3 peak stage? However, if I were to go by the general way of putting cultivation stages, then I would be at rank 3 late stage.
