Elizabeth and Adam are excited to answer, hoping the bike is finally ready.

"Hello" said Adam as he answered the phone.

"Hi, it's been a while. I've sent a car to your building waiting outside to drive you" Elizabeth said.

"Is it ready?" adam asked, but before he could receive an answer, Elizabeth ended the call.

Elizabeth will always speak in person and make sure what she says is brief over the phone as she ends the call before Adam can speak.

"It sucks, it always ends the call on me" murmured Adam in frustration.

Walking out of her room, her aunt seemed to have gone out and looked up at the table she found a large plate of food and a note.

Adam had not seen much of his aunt over the past few days, as he had completely focused on hunting in the basement, and had also not seen Sarah for a long time.

Reading the note stated that he was out for the day and probably would not return until late, so he left him a big meal and he could eat by himself for the rest of the day.

Adam was glad his aunt was busying herself and had something to do all day, but he felt a little worried about his aunt and curious about what she was doing.

Suppressing his curiosity and paranoid nature, Adam eats his food slowly, to upset Elizabeth who is waiting for him outside the building, and after changing into a casual set of clothes and tying up his hair, Adam is ready to leave.

He felt much safer with the sword, which increased his overall stats by 7 points, with him all the time, kept in his inventory, and eager to see what Elizabeth needed for him.

There was a completely dark car waiting outside his building with tinted windows, and Adam who was wearing his contact lenses did not plan to reveal himself as the masked ally of the Auction House, but only as Elizabeth's young friend.

Getting into the back of the car, the driver started driving without saying a word as he drove towards their destination.

Adam recognized the direction the car was driving as the direction of the Silver Moon Auction House and did not worry about his safety with Elizabeth's subordinates.

And even if there was danger, he felt much more confident with his abilities with the C-Rank Sabre in his inventory and his increase in strength that was already on par with a rank 2 cultivator.

Looking at his status, Adam decided to spend all 3 stat points he had for speed, increasing it to 31 points, making it equivalent to an initial rank of 2.

Adam knew that the trip to the Silver Moon Auction House had taken him a long time, ever since he left with Cole. Adam and Cole live on the edge of Brooklyn, while the Silver Moon Auction House is located on the inner edge of Brooklyn, which is quite a distance away.

With the time he had until he reached his goal, Adam decided he would ask any system he wanted to know or wanted to know.

Not only did he waste time, but he also received answers to any questions he might have, as he began to think of anything he was unsure of.

After thinking about it for a while, he finally found something that he wanted to request from the system.

[System is there any other way to represent the opposing force than to look at their status, as it passes through the entire status for too long and interferes in the middle of a battle] asked Adam.

{Fighter Power is another way to represent the strength of creatures. If the host wants to use this measurement, the system will start using it} that the system offers.

[How it works] asked Adam before making a decision.

{This will give the host an average rating of the opponent's stats and will determine whether his opponent is an Internal Cultivator, an External Cultivator or both, giving the host an idea of their cultivation level. For example, the current Combat Power of the host is: IE29.9} describes the system.

It showed him the average of all his stats, revealed whether his opponent was an Internal Cultivator, an External Cultivator or both, and was a quick way to gauge the opponent's strength.

Seeing that, Adam decided that he would maintain the status and measurement of Combat Power and use it interchangeably depending on the situation.

Adam had realized that most of the stats were the same for the cultivation level of both Internal and External Cultivators but the difference was that Internal Cultivators had IESP whereas External Cultivators had EESP.

However, the External Cultivators constantly displayed their level of strength and had physically strong bodies, while Internal Cultivators had to strengthen their bodies with their internal energy to display as much physical strength as an External Cultivator.

Although Internal Cultivators were at a disadvantage in that, they had the ability to use more skills requiring Internal Energy, which also gave them other advantages over External Cultivators such as long-range attacks.

Adam was not entirely sure about which stats were set for each cultivator because he had yet to see the stats of the External Cultivators and Internal Cultivators, but he had a rough idea of how the system distinguished them.

Overall he was aware that both External and Internal Cultivators were very similar in terms of strength, but both of them had advantages and traits that made them different.

Fortunately he was blessed to be able to cultivate Internally and Externally at the same time, it allowed him to display more power than anyone at the same cultivation level as him and allowed him to have the advantage of both types of cultivators.

Yet so far he had only found one other cultivator who was an internal cultivator, who was his master, and even with his master, he was not so sure if he was really and what he was capable of.

In a new way representing the strength level of the cultivators, Adam's mind was still thinking of a realization or something else he wanted to clarify with the system.

Without much else to do, Adam gathered all his thoughts and assumptions, then after confirming them with the system, formed a store of useful and factual information.

[My summoning beast system can take damage without using my IESP right?] ask Adam in his mind.

Adam became more attuned to his use of Internal Energy and better understood it, although it was automatically used through the system.

He had gathered after using his Collector Skills many times, that the initial energy was used to form the summoning body, which was formed into existence with his energy, then for every minute it was summoned, it would use its Internal Energy to maintain its energy form.

However, the damage inflicted by the summoning did not require him to use his IESP to recover it and it was something the system would do automatically to keep the summoning in its peak state.

If Adam's call could sustain damage without Adam's IESP being used, it would greatly increase the length he could use his call.

However knowing that his calls are smart, they may hate him for it and he needs to get some information from the system before making any decisions.

{Gentleman's house is right. After summoning the beast, the host used the automatic recovery feature of the Collector Skills to keep the summoning at its peak state, which made it so that they suffered damage at the expense of the host's Internal Energy} confirmed system.

{Do the host want to disable this Collector Skills feature} ask on the system.

[Before I decide, explain to me the pros and cons of doing so] Adam said.

{If the host does, the host will save energy and will not be affected when the host call receives damage. However the calls would weaken during the battle and once they were damaged, the host could no longer recover them. If the host retracts his call, their recovery speed is 10 minutes for every 10 HP, 1 EESP, or 1 IESP lost during battle. The host can still summon weak and damaged animals, but they will be less useful} summarize the system.

[What happens if they die] asked Adam.

{If the call dies, then they will lose all the memories they have acquired, including all their experiences that formed their combat prowess. They will also be locked for use until their bodies recover twice to be reformed from death, then recover to their peak condition.

Despite knowing that his calling would probably hate him for doing so, Adam knew it was a necessary sacrifice to defend his IESP while in battle.

[Disabling the automatic recovery feature of the Skills Collector] commands Adam as he finally achieves his goal.
