My CEO Harem Cultivation System

The rest of the evaluation of Bo Lifen was followed therein and the information surprised Li Yang greatly. Much more than the unsuitable comment was seeing what the System meant by horrible decision making:

[ Name: Bo Lifen ]

[ Age: 29 years old ]

[ Cultivation: Qi Condensation - Stage 5/9 (Middle Stage) ]

[ Constitution: None ]

[ Bloodline: None ]

[ Roots: Wood (11.2%) / Earth (14.8%) / Fire (12.3%) ]

[ Association: Bo Clan, Hua Clan, Shen Society, Other Cultivation Clans ]

[ Cultivation Methods ]

Profound Lightning Beast Technique (Earth)

Power: Weak

Comprehension: Intermediate (78/128)

Stage: Qi Condensation (5/9)

Notes: An earth-ranked cultivation method originally used exclusively and rediscovered by the individual 'Hua Zhao' when he was younger. The interested individual, Bo Lifen, chose to pursue this because of how striking and powerful it was despite incompatibility.

Hua Ancestral Technique (Sky [degraded])

Power: Weak

Comprehension: Advanced (129/256)

Stage: Qi Condensation (3/9)

Notes: A sky-ranked cultivation method said to have been passed by their ancestral hero who once saved the entire nation from utter destruction and was rewarded this technique by the heavens. Its original version was said to have been lost in time.

[ Martial Arts Methods ]

External-Focused Martial Arts Style (various)

As the Bo Clan had incredibly close ties with the Hua Clan, the individual, Bo Lifen found herself participating in a lot of their martial arts training and liked familiarizing herself with various techniques and methods

[ Skills ]

Spiritual Sense (common) 

Most cultivators use beyond their five senses to navigate through life. Individual has the capacity to see the things beyond the veil of the world and interact with them

Sword Fighting (uncommon)

In the era of the past, being a sword practitioner was as common as a carpenter picking up a hammer or a fisherman throwing their nets. In this day and age, the use of swords and especially mastering a sword art is an exhaustive activity that not all cultivators accomplish today

The individual does not incorporate sword-qi, but has a good grasp of different modern and even past techniques. Against low-ranked cultivators, the individual may be able to overcome them through sheer will and tenacity

Tea Sommelier (uncommon)

The dao of making tea is a profound and careful technique carefully passed on from one generation to another. The Bo Family was said to have served in the Heavenly Jade Pavillion and even served gods.

The individual has a good grasp of tea brewing, infusion techniques and other preparation elements and finds them a soothing method to tend her often wearied mind.

[Expand to view other skill list… ]

[ Fate ]

Current: Background Individual

The individual has taken the path of least resistance and is living a mundane life

Future: unknown

[ Notes ]

If classified under the standards of current cultivation society, comes from a prominent family and has a good relationship with the Hua Clan and several ties across the nation. Based on 'secret' cultivation associations survey, voted most likely to crush a man's pelvis or remaining single throughout her life. 

While tea is enjoyed by many of the nation's people today, especially that of the cultivation society and searching for renowned properties, the Dao of Tea is often seen as nothing more but a background profession that focuses on serving cultivators similar to that of Alchemy and other jobs. 

The individual may find some luck in focusing her attention there.

Li Yang inwardly sighed and found all of it a lot to take in. He remembered encountering Hua Zhao before as the one who slayed the Kui Beast in the past and the young man seemed to have come from a good family.

A great bloodline considering that his ancestors once received a Sky-rank technique.

Nonetheless, whether or not the Hua Clan had great cultivation methods, it really hadn't been able to help the one he actually cared about. Li Yang glanced at Bo Lifen and cleared his throat. "Bo Lifen, if I may have a word with you?"

"Uh oh."

"What are you even saying, Taiga?" Narissa raised a brow.

"What?" Taiga protested.

Bo Lifen sighed and crossed her arms over her chest. She gave him a calm look despite her body language revealing otherwise. "I'm presuming that you must have some kind of All-Discerning Eye Technique, Sage of Six Eyes or whatever?"

"Er, sure," Li Yang said. While he didn't expand all the details of his ability to Bo Lifen while they were in the Celestial Ship, she should have had enough knowledge to know what he was actually referring to.

It was really only Taiga who was clueless and suddenly burst in front of Li Yang. "A mystic eye technique? Was that bestowed to you while you were cultivating and gained it as a reward? Can you see the spiritual realm easily? See the flow of qi easier compared to others, Bossman?"

"Perhaps, I can do a lot of those things," Li Yang said as he patted Taiga's head. "But I came to realize that Lifen didn't really choose suitable cultivation methods for herself."

"Er, well… I kinda ended up stopping after some years to focus on my tea studies?" Bo Lifen shrugged. "I'm sure that I would have advanced more if I didn't stop, but… well, life is funny enough that we all only have twenty-four hours a day."

"She obviously hasn't considered time dilation," Bao said as it landed on Li Yang's head. "Well, I doubt you can master that technique anytime soon. So she's kinda right."

"Cultivation was never your priority, wasn't it?" Li Yang asked. "You told me that you weren't into violence… but the technique that you have learned is associated with lightning based attacks and skillset?"

Bo Lifen threw him a look. "I don't like violence and hurting other people but I'm competitive. Doesn't that make sense to you?" She gave him a tiny smile. "I mean, even if people said that it was difficult for me to learn… I wanted to prove them wrong. But I needed to give up back then."

"Needed? Because you had to prioritize learning the art of tea making and also attend to other matters?" Li Yang could tell that there was something she wasn't mentioning but it seemed to be a sour point.

"That's right. Either way, I'm here to learn from you, right?" Bo Lifen pointed out. "So why don't we just focus on that instead of the past?"

Author's Note: It's me again! Based on current life priorities, my hours shifted into regular work aha. I won't make promises, but I want to at least get 10 chapters out. Maybe 20 if I force myself. 

I'd like to give special thanks to the people on the discord server and to folks who really are dedicated to cultivation, magic systems and other worldbuilding  and are even more familiar with it than me. Thanks, Fallen Reaper!
