While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Adam who had held Angela down after sweeping her to the ground didn't hold back with his words.

Getting off her and helping her up, it was clear that she had been rattled and also felt deeply disappointed with herself and as though she was weak and useless.

"I have been working hard to train and have been trying to live up to your expectations, but maybe I am not as talented and capable as the others. I just can't..."

Angela seemed to be on the verge of giving up on her position and everything she had worked hard for, but before she could finish what she was saying, Adam suddenly slapped her face.

"Wake up Angela, I was telling you these things to help you improve. Everyone had weaknesses and flaws that they must work to overcome, that is the point of cultivation, improving one's self. I also encourage competition, but am not looking for jealousy or a hierarchy between the faction leaders" he reassured her.

"However, if you pitifully give up and claim to be unable to stand on par with the others, then you truly should think about finding another role as a leader cannot show any weakness"

He was stern with her the most, but it was also because she needed to most support and mental fortitude.

Seeing how much the others were processing and feeling useless in their previous battle as her grandfather died before her, she couldn't help but begin doubting herself.

"Just like I said to the others, self-belief is the key to progressing as a cultivator. Your cultivation speed is currently very low and yours and Wayde's seemed to have reached a halt, but I am sure that after awakening the power within him, Wayde will progress rapidly and leave you behind. He had found purpose and won't be there to protect you just like your grandfather once did"

"He died protecting you and wanted you to lead this faction and the Maxwell Family members within the faction to a great future. However, are you living up to his memory by being as pathetic as you currently are"

Before he revealed to her what she was capable of, Adam wanted to see that she still had the drive and determination that was needed to be a leader.

If she couldn't find it within her to rise up after being struck down, then she wasn't ready to be a leader and Adam needed to make rational decisions for the future of the faction, no matter how cruel and harsh they may seem to others.

At that current moment, it was Angela who was the faction leader that offered the least value, and that could change after awakening her true potential, but to do so, she would need to have strong willpower.

She began watching her life experiences and reminisced on everything that had brought her up until that point and when she thought about it, Adam, Wayde or her grandfather had always been there to protect her and help her reach where she was.

Angela felt as though she had never truly achieved anything for herself, but instead of feeling disheartened by it, she wanted to prove that she was just as capable or even more capable than them all.

Her grandfather had died.

Her father was only out for his own gain and didn't truly care for her, while he also wasn't on a level where he could protect her.

Wayde had found his own purpose and was progressing rapidly after the lesson with Adam, while Adam had made it clear that he was willing to help her, but only if she could help herself.

The only one she could rely on was herself and not only that, but there were also thousands of cultivators relying on her as a leader and millions of people within the faction's territory relying on her as a protector.

"I won't back down and I won't allow myself to rely on others anymore. I, Angela Maxwell will show you that I am capable and I will honour the memory of my grandfather and become a great leader of the sentinels faction" she declared.

Adam was amused by her sudden change in the way she acted, but it was for the better and the look in her eyes made it clear that she was ready to take on any challenge.

"Then it is time for you to truly become the cultivator, leader and individual you were meant to be. Just like Wayde, you need to be reborn from this point on and will awaken new and great power" 

"Have you realised that when you cultivate and wield Water Energy, you struggle to get your energy and power to flow? It also reduces the speed and power of your attacks and also your cultivation speed greatly"

The truth was she hadn't realised that, but she had felt and noticed similar things to what Adam had said, but she had believed that was normal as that was how her cultivation had been since she started.

She always felt as though it was very tough to cultivate and wield her energy, and was one of the main reasons why she struggled to live up to the expectations of her talent grading.

It was also one of the biggest reasons why she slacked off on her cultivation, as it was quite painful for her to cultivate and yet she endured and was able to reach the level she was at despite it, which was impressive.

Everyone around her including herself had misunderstood her capabilities and had also been underestimating her, which was why her growth and power had been so restricted.

However, Adam was about to help her break free of those shackles and reveal to her why she had struggled so much all that time.

"The reason for all of that is simple.. Your Elemental Affinity isn't with water and your true Energy Affinity is something else that comes from your unique constitution that is similar, but also very different to water energy" he revealed.
