These adults knew fully the value of what he was doing for them. He didn't have to tell them about the importance of his classes before they knelt before him and thanked him profusely. The interesting thing was that no one came to make a fuss when he began teaching the advanced mana breathing technique for free. Not a single person came to dissuade him or disrupt his class. There were still a lot of dojo masters who didn't like what he was doing, but they didn't have the guts to complain about it. They had sent a second mortal coil cultivator to pressure him, yet the cultivator failed and also disappeared. It is true that Black Mantis was a subpar second mortal coil cultivator. But that wasn't a bad thing because that's the main reason why they could afford him. Black Mantis was unscrupulous and willing to bully a small boy for money. He also wasn't expensive, so they hired him to do the job. It would have brought a lot of shame if it was exposed that they bullied a kind 12-year-old boy like that, so they asked Black Mantis to go to Arthur in the night when people are less likely to see him. This arrangement also meant that they couldn't know for sure if Black Mantis had gone to Arthur to warn him. So when Arthur still went ahead with teaching the advanced mana breathing technique for free, they thought that either Black Mantis had not done his job or that Arthur was calling their bluff. So they went over to Black Mantis to complain. They wanted him to do his job or teach Arthur a painful lesson. It all depended on the situation. But they couldn't do any of this because Black Mantis had disappeared. No one had seen him for six months, and his group had disbanded. It was either that Black Mantis had run away with their money or he was dead. They didn't think the former was possible at all. It was more plausible for Black Mantis to cheat them and admit it to their face than for him to run away because of shame. If Black Mantis could bully a child, he can certainly bully them. He won't run away with their money, which left only one option. That option made them become scared. Black Mantis had disappeared after taking their deal to warn Arthur. That made them so scared that they didn't cause trouble for Arthur. They were scared, but they didn't think he eliminated Black Mantis. That option didn't cross their minds either. What they thought happened was that someone from the Dyson family had made a move after Arthur reported that he was being bullied. So the entity that they were scared of was the Dyson family, not Arthur. Either way, it brought Arthur peace. He was able to run his dojo without interference or problems. Only small ignorant characters who didn't know that a second mortal coil cultivator had been sent to harass Arthur still dared to make a fuss. But those were easy to put down. Arthur taught both the basic and advanced breathing techniques in the same class. So children at the second transformation and adults at the sixth transformation both attended his early morning class. He made thay arrangement so that he wouldn't have to spend more than 2 hours daily for his dojo. Other dojos had hostels, practice fields, and equipment for training. His dojo lacked all of that, but no one was complaining. In fact, the opposite was what happened. People were thanking him every day. His class has ballooned to having 5,000 people per class. The karma he earns daily truly came at a good time for him since he needs a lot of it for his next level up. When he was just teaching the basic mana breathing technique, he only earned 10 karma per student per day. But the addition of the advanced mana breathing technique increased the amount of karma he earned per student to 20 karma per day. Some young children couldn't appreciate the advanced mana breathing technique, so the supply of karma from them remained at 10 per day. But some adults appreciated it so much that they gave him 50 karma per day. So on average, his class of 5,000 gave him an average of 20 karma per day. It is because his class is composed mostly of ignorant kids and teenagers who can only barely appreciate the basic mana breathing technique. This meant that his supply of Karma from his dojo increased from 15,000 daily to 100,000 daily. This is an increase of 6.7 times even though this size of his class had only increased by 3.3 times from 1,500 to 5,000. Apart from the Karma, his dojo also gave him rewards in terms of talented students who obey him. It has been three years since he started his dojo. A lot of students have learned the basic mana breathing techniques and have begun to grow stronger. This, combined with the advanced mana breathing technique, increased the public opinion of his dojo. This also gave him more capable people at his beck and call that he could ask to help with many things. They call him the Red Saint now instead of Master Red, and they obey his every word as if he were a gang leader. He has made progress in other parts of his life too. The most important progress is that he has finally reached the ninth transformation.
