Mining mana- and elemental crystals for days was boring and he learned something extremely beneficial on the third day, as he experimented a little bit with his newly obtained mana gathering technique.
Shane pondered long what he should do with the fortune he earned through mining crystals, but in the end, he decided to invest everything in himself, while leaving enough for Umbra's next quality upgrade.
Compared to others, he earned a fortune and on the third day, he already purchased all necessary manuals to reach a 60% mana purity, with a good mana gathering technique and Shane even purchased a [Tier-2 (Gold)] body refining technique.
Everything was settled about his cultivation and body refining and with his multiple manuals, he also had to think of ways in order to protect himself in a better way, because his equipment mainly consisted of Tier-1 items.
This led Shane to accumulate funds in order to procure better equipment, with which he would be able to kill or at least injure all kinds of beasts within the Basic Dimensions.
Because his goal was set, Shane's mining speed increased even more with more gold coins accumulating in his hands, while the Elus-merchant hundreds of thousand galaxies away laughed heartily in its incorporeal form because Shane who was seen as a small fish, send him tens of thousand crystals, bringing him a fortune and a good reputation from the Elus nobles.
While mining, Shane also practiced his newly acquired [Tier-2 (Gold)] mana gathering technique in order to accomplish many tasks at the same time.
Because his focus was unstable, he could only gather a small number of mana particles at a time, but thanks to his good relationship with mana, due to [Artemis' Blessing], it was still enough to fill his mana pool.
After the mana gathering process was done, Shane switched to his [Tier-1 (Gold)] mana purifying technique instead of the [Tier-2 (Gold)] one, because he didn't want to bother about mixing the two techniques.
He couldn't let his mana purity reach higher than 28% before he acquired the [Apprentice-(Mythic)] body refining technique.
Some might call him stupid or naive, but mistakes made humans out and it was easy to accidentally practice the wrong technique.
As such, Shane sealed the technique with the help of his system in order to unseal it only, when he said so or once he achieved his set goal.
Cultivating while doing something else was extremely difficult and if one had to be honest it was a negligible amount one would achieve within a few hours in focused cultivation, but Shane was still happy with what he achieved after another three days.
Six days passed and it was already midnight when Shane remembered something important that happened four days prior.
2 days after his outburst of emotion and curses, he received a few notifications, while Aunt Kia messaged him privately.
The notifications were from the academies telling him that he was accepted, which was not really something noteworthy in his opinion because his cultivation and body refining rank was already quite good compared to average peers.
Thanks to his high- consumption for the [Mortal-(Mythic)] body refining technique, Shane was slower than others, while his funds balanced this out, allowing him to stay at the same rank or even above peers from average households.
Because he knew that most higher households and nobles didn't bother about academies, Shane never doubted that he would be rejected from any academy, but Aunt Kia's message was still something he didn't expect.
'Huh? Aunt Kia became the principal of the [Shirai] academy? Since when..' Curious about his Aunt's decision, Shane continued to read the message as he read something particular.
Sighing, Shane was in a tricky position.
'If I don't have to attend lessons and only the exams and ranking systems to determine who'll enter the dimension-spheres, It will be much easier for me to learn other stuff within the primordial dimension and more importantly Aunty won't be sad…
BUT why does it have to be the [Shirai] academy? Isn't that one of the worst? ….
Well..even if its the worst, does it change anything to my plan??...come to think of it, it doesn't even matter which academy I join, as long as they have a dimension-sphere with a few decent skill tomes and martial art manuals'
In the end, Shane messaged his Aunty Kia a simple message, while being reminded about her childish, yet somewhat formal personality.
