While Marvin was having a stand-off against the cultist, the taxi sped through the bustling streets, leaving behind a cacophony of honking horns and startled pedestrians. Pavan sat beside Kuro, who was slumped and unconscious, his battered body leaning awkwardly against the seat. Crystal, sitting in the front, glared impatiently at the road ahead.

“Drive faster,” Crystal urged, her voice sharp.

The taxi driver, a middle-aged man with a balding head and a pair of aviator sunglasses, replied in a calm but slightly amused tone, “Madam, I am following the rules of the road. I can’t just drive faster because you said so.”

Crystal huffed in frustration, then reached into her bag, pulled out a fat bundle of cash, and dumped it onto the passenger seat. “Now, will you drive faster?”

The driver’s eyes widened at the sight of the money. His professionalism crumbled instantly. “Yes, ma’am. You have no idea how fast I can drive.”

He slammed his foot on the accelerator, and the taxi lurched forward,

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   Escape Through Sacrifice

    While Pavna and Maria were confused by the sudden turn of events, the battlefield quaked as Marvin’s power reached its peak at the Lapanzo Foundry, the air charged with an oppressive, electrifying energy. Lightning crackled around him, arcing off his body in jagged streaks that seared the ground. His previously calm demeanor was replaced by a fiery intensity that left no room for doubt—this was the full might of Master Marvin unleashed.Marvin’s body surged with power as the Nine Star Acupuncture Technique reached its climax. Sparks of lightning crackled along his arms, illuminating the battlefield with a brilliant glow. But then, to Danial’s astonishment, Marvin pressed another point on his chest, and the energy around him seemed to stabilize, halting its rise just before reaching its peak of the Third Stage Martial Arts Master.Danial noticed this and thought in shock, He stopped the Nine Star Acupuncture Technique at the end. That means he's holding back even his full strength.The

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   A Brother’s Fall

    Danial felt his arms throbbing painfully, the crimson tendrils of the Blood Curse spreading further along his veins. His breathing quickened, and a cold sweat formed on his brow.“Master, are you alright? We need to get to the academy now!” Danial exclaimed, his voice edged with panic.Marvin, still seated, glanced at the blackened mark on his shoulder. A faint smirk crossed his lips as he said, “That damned Overseer. Who would’ve thought he’d manage to craft another Blood Curse in such a short time?” He shook his head, adding, “But this... this is child's play for me.”Danial was momentarily stunned by the sudden shift in Marvin's demeanor. The trembling that had wracked Marvin’s body was gone as if it had never existed. He stood tall, his usual imposing aura returning with an almost tangible intensity. Then, with a sudden jerk of his body, the spreading poison ceased its advance. Danial watched, wide-eyed, as the blackened poison that had been spreading through Marvin’s shoulder visi

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   Fractured Bonds

    Luna was absolutely furious, her body trembling with restrained rage. Her voice, sharp and resolute, cut through the air, “How dare Santiago touch Kuro! Doesn’t he know the family laws? How dare he defy everything the Hale name stands for!”Her secretary instinctively took a step back. In all the years she had served Luna, she had never seen her in such a state. Luna’s usual icy composure was now replaced with an intensity that was almost suffocating.At that moment, Doctor Hammer entered the room, bowing slightly before speaking in a calm and measured tone. “Miss Luna, I have arrived.”Luna turned her piercing gaze on him, her voice steady but commanding, “Check on him. I want to know everything—every injury, every detail.”Hammer nodded and approached Kuro. For a moment, he felt a strange sense of familiarity while looking at Kuro’s battered face. But this wasn’t the time to dwell on such thoughts. Without hesitation, he set to work, his assistant trailing behind him with a bag full

    Danial glanced at his arm, his eyes narrowing as the cursed veins pulsed ominously. “I’ll need a set of acupuncture needles, a metallic container, and a sharp knife. NOW!” His commanding tone startled Gloria, who blinked at him in disbelief.“Acupuncture?” Gloria asked, her voice tinged with skepticism. “How is that supposed to help?”Danial’s gaze snapped to her, unwavering and sharp. “It’s the only way unless you’d prefer to cut off my arm. The time gap for placing each needle is critical, and if I fail, the technique fails. Silence is crucial.”Faced with no better alternative, Gloria reluctantly nodded and hurried to gather the items. Marvin stood silently, his arms crossed, observing the scene with concern.Moments later, Gloria returned, placing the needles, knife, and metallic bucket on the table beside Danial. “Are you sure about this?” she asked.Danial didn’t respond immediately, instead taking a deep breath and steadying his trembling hand. “Close the door. No interruptions

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   Clash in the Snowstorm

    Danial stepped out of the Infirmary, his body still weary from the recent ordeal. Despite his fatigue, his mind raced with questions. As soon as he was outside, he pulled out his phone and called Pavan. The line connected quickly, and Pavan’s voice came through.“Pavan, where are you? And more importantly, where is Kuro? How is he?” Danial’s voice was sharp with concern.Pavan’s reply was calm, though tinged with reassurance. “Don’t worry about Kuro. He’s safe and currently resting at a hospital.”Danial’s brows furrowed. “Hospital? I gave you the address of the company. What happened?”Pavan sighed. “A lot happened, but he’s okay now. There are people keeping an eye on him. You don’t have to worry. Maria and I are heading back to the academy as soon as possible.”Danial nodded, though his concern didn’t fully dissipate. “Alright, but I want a full explanation when you’re here.”“You’ll have it,” Pavan assured him.Danial ended the call, taking a moment to collect his thoughts before

    Danial walked back toward the seating area, his victory still fresh in his mind, but he didn’t have the luxury of savoring it. As he approached, he spotted Leo and Diego waiting for him, smirks plastered across their faces. Their postures oozed confidence, and it was clear they had been waiting to confront him.“Danial,” Leo started, his voice dripping with mockery, “That match of yours… Was that supposed to impress anyone? It was barely a challenge.”Diego chimed in, his grin widening. “Seriously. If that’s what you’re bringing to the tournament, you might as well pack up now. That guy was weak, and you got lucky.”Danial crossed his arms, his gaze steady. “Weak or not, I won. That’s more than you can say for yourselves at the moment.”Leo raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise. “Oh? Bold words for someone whose ‘teammates’ are nowhere to be seen. Where’s Pavan? And Kuro? Couldn’t handle the pressure, huh? Ran off with their tails between their legs?”Diego laughed, shaking his head. “

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   Half-Brother?

    Zyler walked off the arena floor, his dark cloak trailing behind him as the audience's murmurs grew louder. Before he could disappear completely, a Beginner Stage Master stepped into his path, his face stern with authority.“Zyler,” the Master said, his voice laced with displeasure. “The rules of the tournament state that no killing of any kind is allowed.”Zyler stopped, tilting his head slightly. His response was cold and dismissive. “I left him alive. Where did I kill him?”The Master’s glare intensified, his patience wearing thin. “Zyler, stay within your limits. Do not test our patience.”Zyler turned his head slightly to meet the Master’s eyes, his indifference replaced with an edge of mockery. “And what if I don’t?”The Master, clearly angered, raised his hand to strike. But as he locked eyes with Zyler, his movements faltered. His arm froze mid-air, trembling as if an invisible weight had shackled it. His pupils dilated, and a sheen of cold sweat formed on his brow.

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   Path Ahead.

    Danial was stunned. He repeated what Crystal had just said, disbelief evident in his voice. “Did you just say that Kuro is the half-brother of Luna Hale from the Hale Family? One of the greatest families of the Capital?”Crystal nodded, her expression unreadable. Danial took several moments to process the information, his thoughts racing like a runaway train.“Kuro is part of the Hale Family from the Capital? Why didn’t he tell us? Did he have reasons for keeping this a secret?” Danial thought, his brows furrowing. His mind was a whirlpool of questions and confusion.Pavan, noticing Danial’s growing expression of concern, decided to interject. “Danial, don’t overthink. Kuro had his reasons, and I’m sure he’ll tell us once he wakes up……… Hopefully.”Both Danial and Crystal turned to Pavan, their glares sharp enough to pierce through steel. Pavan flinched under their combined scrutiny, his hands flailing slightly as he backpedalled. “He will! He will!” Pavan blurted out in panic. “He’ll

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   The Cost of Awakening

    Pavan stood tall, the steam curling from his body growing denser with each breath. The arena crackled with tension as silence swept through the crowd. His clothes, torn and burnt at the edges, clung to his frame. His skin shimmered faintly, redder than before, and glowing orange fissures branched along his arms and shoulders like dormant lightning, pulsing with restrained might.But the change wasn’t just physical.His movements had sharpened.His aura was heavier.And his eyes—burning a molten gold—locked onto Zain like a predator.In the stands, Danial leaned forward, eyes narrowing. “What happened to him?”Crystal, just as confused, shook her head. “I... I don’t know. But it’s like his strength and speed just multiplied all of a sudden.”Danial’s brows furrowed. “Do you think he’s awakened some kind of hidden power?”“I can’t tell. But this isn’t elemental... it feels different.”Back in the arena, Pavan moved.He vanished in a blur of heat shimmer, reappearing before Zain with a r

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   Let It Burn

    Zain did not waste time and immediately rushed towards Pavan with a slashing whip.She leapt forward like a predator, her movements swift and ferocious, the whip in her hand arcing through the air with a venomous hiss. The sound alone was enough to make several spectators flinch.Pavan stepped back and avoided the whip attack and saw the mark on the ground—a testament to the power and durability of the whip.The stone tiles of the arena cracked under the force, the lash leaving behind a long, blackened scar. Dust floated into the air as Pavan widened his eyes."If that whip hits me," he thought grimly, "it will cut me open like butter."Zain followed the attack, twisting her body and lashing out again.She spun like a dancer, her every step precise. The whip cracked once more, slicing through the air like lightning. It came toward Pavan again—fast and merciless.Pavan raised his sword and blocked the whip attack; however, a black mark appeared on the sword, showing the power that the

    Danial and Crystal returned to the arena, their footsteps brisk as they hurried toward the edge of the spectator stands. The air was buzzing with anticipation, and as they settled in, a clear voice rang out across the arena."Next round—Pavan from Somerland versus Zain from Somerland!"Danial and Crystal exchanged glances. Without a word, they moved closer, their attention sharpening as they peered down at the battlefield.Emerging from the preparation area, Zain strode onto the stage with an air of absolute confidence. In her hand, she carried a black whip, its length coiling and uncoiling like a living serpent. With a casual flick of her wrist, she lashed it through the air, the sharp crack echoing through the silent arena.Danial furrowed his brows at the sight. "A whip? Is that even considered a proper weapon?"Crystal, arms crossed, responded without looking at him. "It is—if she belongs to the Devil’s Associates faction."Danial turned to her, puzzled. "What do you mean?"Crysta

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   An Unwelcome Warning

    Egbert stood up while clenching his blade, his entire body trembling. His eyes, wide with disbelief, locked onto Danial as his voice cracked with confusion."How can this be? How could this ever be possible?" he muttered, his face twisted in shock. He staggered back, gripping his sword so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "How could your basic technique be so powerful? How could your technique overpower my divine Crimson Reaper Arts? That is not possible. You must have cheated!"Egbert could not accept reality. His technique was not just some ordinary martial skill; it was crafted by Norman Ray, a war deity of immense power and wisdom. The Crimson Reaper Arts were revered as one of the strongest sword techniques, refined through generations, yet Danial’s seemingly simple Sword Drawing Technique had shattered it, breaking through his proudest ability as if it were nothing. It defied all logic. It was unacceptable.Egbert's voice echoed through the now-silent hall, but no one came

    The battle hall was filled with murmurs and hushed voices as Danial and Egbert stepped onto the duel arena. The place still carried traces of previous battles, the floor marked with faint scars from past clashes, including Danial’s fight with Sara. But today, the tension in the air was different—more electric, more charged.Egbert’s arrogance was on full display as he sneered, his voice laced with mockery. “Kid, I’m taking pity on you for what’s about to happen. Maybe if you kneel and crawl, I’ll let you live.”Danial met his gaze calmly and replied, “No.”The single word was enough to darken Egbert’s face. His jaw clenched as his pride took a hit. “Danial, I’m giving you a way out. Once in the duel arena, I won’t let you off even if you kneel and beg for mercy.”Danial tilted his head slightly, unfazed. “Are we going to fight or not?”Egbert’s eyes twitched in annoyance before he shrugged as if he had already won. “Alright, I hope you remember what I said.”Both climbed onto the duel

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   The Unwanted Suitor

    Danial sat in the audience, watching the ongoing matches with mild interest. At first, he paid attention, analyzing the techniques used by different fighters, but after a while, he grew bored. The matches were too predictable, lacking the intensity of the battles he had been in. He tapped his fingers on the armrest, wondering when his final match would come.Crystal, who had been sitting beside him, noticed his bored expression. She smirked and leaned closer. “Danial, let’s go walk around the academy.”Danial glanced at her and considered it for a moment. Sitting here and watching these mundane fights wasn’t going to help him. He nodded. “Alright, might as well.”As they stood up and left the arena, they remained unaware of the shadow lurking in the distance, silently watching their every move.The academy grounds had transformed into a lively hub. Stalls lined the pathways, selling everything from cultivation manuals to exotic snacks. There were booths set up for visitors and student

    Crystal descended into the rocky arena, her icy-blue eyes scanning the terrain. The environment was filled with jagged hills, uneven terrain, and rocky outcroppings—an arena that would test movement and adaptability. Danial leaned against the railing, watching her with a small smile, fully confident in her victory.Just as the match was about to begin, Leonard approached from behind, patting Danial’s shoulder with a smug grin."Danial, did you see my match just now? The tricks I used had him completely baffled—haha!"Danial turned to look at him, blinking. "That was your match?"Leonard’s face fell. The excitement in his eyes flickered. "Yeah… you didn’t see it?"Danial quickly realized his mistake and tried to salvage the situation. "Leonard, I didn’t know your match was happening. I’m sorry."Leonard forced a smile, waving it off. "Alright, no worries." He turned and walked away, but as he did, the forced smile gradually faded.Danial sighed, feeling a little guilty, but his attenti

    As the tournament progressed, the excitement in the air reached its peak. The crowd roared in anticipation as each match brought forth new surprises, showcasing the sheer talent and determination of the academy's young warriors. Danial sat with Crystal, both observing the ongoing battles with quiet interest.Crystal turned to him and asked, "You already won two matches. This guarantees your spot in the Final Stage tomorrow. Who do you think your final opponent will be?"Danial shrugged, his expression calm. "I don't know," he replied simply.Just as he finished speaking, movement from the side caught his attention. Pavan had returned from the infirmary, his head and shoulders wrapped in fresh bandages. His steps were steady, but the slight wince as he moved revealed that his injuries hadn’t fully healed.Danial immediately got up and walked over to him, his brows furrowed in concern. "Why are you out of the infirmary? Your body needs rest."Pavan groaned, waving his hand dismissively.

  • Cultivation with a System in the Modern World   The Rising Star Returns

    Tyler staggered slightly as he stepped down from the arena, his legs trembling, his face pale. The match had been brief—too brief—but the experience had left a lasting impression on him. No, it wasn’t just the match itself; it was the gaze. That chilling, soul-crushing gaze that had locked onto him as if stripping away every ounce of his being. It was unlike anything he had ever faced before.His master approached, his eyes filled with concern as he placed a firm hand on Tyler’s shoulder. “Are you okay?”Tyler did not answer immediately. He walked in silence, each step feeling heavier than the last. His master was about to repeat the question when Tyler finally spoke, his voice hollow.“I want to withdraw from the tournament.”The words were so unexpected that his master was momentarily stunned. Tyler was not one to give up easily. He had trained relentlessly, fought fiercely, and had dreams of proving himself. Yet now, standing before him, was not the same student who had entered thi
