The moment he went out of the patron's office, He saw a tanned-skinned guy who looked to be around 24 or 25 years old waiting for him.
"Hello, I'm Grey. I'm tasked to take you to your dorm and also give you a few pointers." The guy introduced him and said.
[Name: Bruno Costa
Age: 25 years
Nationality: Canadian.
Rank: Adept
Program: Spyism
...]
Bradley asked Leonora to scan the Grey guy to get his information.
"Nice to meet you, Bruno Costa. I'm Bradley by the way and you don't need to show me my dorm. I'm already familiar with this place." With Leonora, finding his dorm was an easy task.
The tanned skin guy looked at the disappearing figure of Bradley with a shocked gaze. He even thought he was hallucinating.
After walking for about 15 minutes. He got in front of a tall building that could house thousands of people. He took the elevator to the 15th floor, where his room was. Along the way, Bradley couldn't help but quicken his step because he saw that some of the ladies wanted to approach him. The moment he got to his room, he surveyed the room and found that his cabin consisted of a small sleeping room, a training room that contained machines and tools for physical exercises. He also had a small study room and a washroom to make his stay comfortable.
Bradley went to his training room and saw a black mat at the edge of the room.
[Item: Earthen Force Mat
Function: It is used by Body Refiners to strengthen their skin and muscles.
The longer the time you sit on it, the stronger the pressure placed on your body will grow.]
"Let's try it out." Went and sat on the mat with his eyes closed.
"Hum!!" Bradley felt an invincible force act on him. Initially, it was bearable, but after about 10 minutes, he started to sweat. He could feel that his body was breaking down bit by bit.
"Hey Nora! How can I get off this mat?
I can't move!
[Ding]
[First Mission: Meditate on the Earthen
Force Mat for an hour.
Reward: Bone Cleansing Pill
Punishment: If you fail this mission, you will be forced to sleep on the mat for 3 days.]
"What the.." Bradley, who wanted help, didn't think Leonora could betray and make things even harder for him.
"Ahh!!! Dammit!!" He grit while clenching his fists and cursed.
[I wonder what he would do if he got to know that I amplified the force acting by threefold, which is idle for level 2 Body Refiners and above] Leonora said mischievously.
"Crack!!" The sound of bones being broken could be heard in the training room.
Bradley was trying in the possible best not to give up, but his limit was reached in the 58th minute. He was covered with his blood that was coming out from his broken skin.
"No, I have to survive. I have to go through this if I want to become stronger, and I don't want to sleep on this goddamn mat for three days." He bit his lower lip so that he wouldn't go unconscious.
[6,5,4,3,2..]
Bradley collapsed on the mat the moment the terrifying force on him vanished.
[Ding]
[You've been rewarded with Flawless-tier Bone Cleansing Pill]
[Ding]
[You've successfully advanced to a Tier One Body Refiner.]
Bradley, who was unconscious, didn't hear or see a single thing.
Bradley, who was unconscious, saw himself in a garden filled with beautiful and fragrant flowers. He saw a man who was sitting in front of the blue pond feeding the fish. Bradley walked towards the place where the man was.
"Excuse me, Sir, please, where is this place?" He asked the man whose back was facing him.
"Home!" That was what the man said and later stood up.
"Please, what do you mean by home?"
Bradley didn't get the concept of what the man was saying.
"Here is where you can find rest. You will go through a lot to reach this place, and it is here that you can rest.
I know that what I'm saying makes no sense to you, but know that what I just said can not be changed. You will come to this place one day, and you will see me sitting in front of this blue fish pond feeding the fish. Our meeting at that time will be different because it will be our reunion after thousands of years." After he ended his speech, he levitated into the sky.
"Farewell for now, boy. Know that the Divine Being will wait for you at home like always." That was the last thing Bradley heard before he regained consciousness.
"Ahh!" He experienced a headache the moment he woke up. He slowly got up and walked to the washroom to clean the blood off his body. Surprisingly, all his injuries were healed, and the broken bones rejoined.
After washing his body and changing his clothes, he went to his study room.
"Nora?"
[How can I help you?]
"Why do I feel like my fist can break bricks easily? I feel like I can even take on tens of Tigers without relying on Justin's memories.?" He asked her.
[I think you need to see your stats, and that will answer you]
"My stats? Okay, show me." He said

Bradley's mind went blank when he saw his information. He was amazed by how Leonora could form such a system for him. What confused him a little was his unawakened physique and bloodline, but since it wasn't really needed currently, he forgot about it.
"So I know Body Refiner? Hahaha, the game has started.
By the way, Nora, do you know anything about the Divine Being or whatever?"
[The Divine Being? How did you get to know him?]
"Just answer me first." He said
[Okay, so the Divine Being is the strongest being in this world. He's the sole ruler of the three realms in this world. Initially, the three realms were one, but after he became the Divine Being and the ruler of this world, he divided the world into three because the mortals were suffering. Strength was everything at that time, so without it, you would die, and if lucky, you would get to become a slave. He divided the world along with its strength and cultivation paths and shared it equally. He is like a benevolent god to all kinds.]
"Then I can't wait to meet such a person."
