Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 93 Expedition Academy
Plane T09-DX-718886.

As the first world conquered by the Kingdom of Dawn, it also has a special status in the Kingdom of Dawn's ruling territory.

In addition to the government of this plane, the Republic of Orros has always followed the pace of development of the Kingdom of Dawn, and its comprehensive strength ranks among the top among all the worlds under the rule of the Kingdom of Dawn, second only to the two complete planes.

Because of this, after the Glory Expedition Plan was officially launched, the Kingdom of Dawn established a total of ten expedition academies, corresponding to ten army groups.

One of the expedition academies is located in the T09-DX-718886 plane.

After completing the assessment of the Glory Expedition Plan, citizens of the other fourteen worlds will come to this expedition academy to receive all-round training.

The Expedition Academy does not have a fixed academic year system, but only holds a graduation examination every year.

Students who pass the assessment can leave the Expedition Academy and truly participate in the Glory Expedition.

If you fail to pass the assessment, you will not be able to stay in the Expedition Academy forever, but will be persuaded to return to your own world, and it will be difficult for you to have the opportunity to participate in the Glory Expedition again.

The corresponding standards for different races are different. Take humans as an example. If they fail to pass the graduation assessment within five years after entering the Expedition Academy, they will be persuaded to leave and return to their own world.

However, it has only been two years since the establishment of the Expedition Academy, and it has only held one graduation examination.

Many talented people have passed the graduation examination and left the Expedition Academy, and there has not been a single case of being persuaded to withdraw.

After all, there are extremely strict requirements for entering the Expedition Academy, and the corresponding screening has actually been completed before this.

These talents are considered top talents in all major worlds. After coming to the Expedition Academy, they can receive more comprehensive and detailed training.

As long as there are no unexpected events, you will generally not fail to pass the graduation examination.

At this moment, the Expedition Academy welcomed a new batch of freshmen this year.

Including the T09-DX-718886 plane, there are new students from a total of fifteen worlds, but the total number is only over three thousand, with an average of only about two hundred new students in each world.

Although these fifteen worlds are only half a plane, their population is not large, adding up to only a little over 500 million.

But even so, the number of people of appropriate age to participate in the Glory Expedition program has reached millions.

Among the millions of eligible people, only a little over 3,000 freshmen were selected. Each of them is a rare talent with huge potential.

"Wow, the geniuses in other worlds are truly more exaggerated than the last."

Among this group of freshmen, a short boy looked at the other freshmen around him and said in amazement.

The boy's name is Nils. Originally, he had no hope of passing the assessment to enter the Expedition Academy.

It was only not long ago that Nils suddenly awakened his powers, which allowed him to be exempted from many assessments and be specially recruited into the Expedition Academy.

Since the Glory Expedition Plan was officially launched, many beings with awakened powers have begun to emerge in many worlds.

The powers of these gods belong to the three major systems of time, space, and destiny, and they all have abilities at a certain conceptual level.

It is worth mentioning that most of the God-favored people outside the Cradle of Life are people of appropriate age to participate in the Glory Expedition Program.

It is precisely because of this obvious difference that the Kingdom of Dawn has also issued a special regulation that as long as one has awakened the power, he or she can be directly exempted from many assessments and enter the Expedition Academy.

After all, these powers come in various types, and they may not necessarily be able to directly enhance the overall strength of those favored by God, allowing them to easily pass many tests and enter the Expedition Academy.

The purpose of the assessment is to screen out those talents whose talents and potential can meet certain standards. In this regard, the identity of a person favored by God is already convincing enough.

There is no need to take the assessment. If the God-favored ones are eliminated for this reason, it would be an unnecessary loss.

What Nils awakened was a certain power of the destiny system. This power could not improve his progress in practicing the All-Spirit Breathing Technique, nor could it improve his frontal combat capability.

If he cannot enter the Expedition Academy through special recruitment, he will not even be qualified to take the assessment, let alone pass the many assessments to enter the Expedition Academy.

"It's really an exaggeration. There are always people who are better than you."

Next to Nils was another young man named Eric, both of them were favored by God.

However, unlike Nils, Eric entered the Expedition Academy after passing many tests and did not go through the special recruitment channel.

The two of them are both gods' favorites, come from the same world, and come from ordinary families. After getting to know each other, they naturally became friends.

At this moment, Eric looked at the many freshmen around him, with some shock in his eyes that was hard to conceal.

As a person favored by God, he can clearly judge which of the freshmen around him are favored by God and which are just ordinary freshmen.

Among the more than 3,000 freshmen, the number of those favored by God is about 30 or so, which is nearly 1%.

Among these more than 30 people favored by God, some have life auras far superior to his own, while some have life auras similar to his own, or even lower than his own.

However, the powers awakened by those favored by God are different, and just looking at the life aura cannot directly represent the strength of a person favored by God.

But it’s different for ordinary freshmen. Before they have changed their jobs and become extraordinary people, one can basically tell the approximate strength of a freshman by judging from his life aura.

According to Eric's observation, among the freshmen he could clearly identify, there were more than a hundred people whose life aura had reached the extraordinary level, which was completely different from ordinary life.

This means that their All Souls Breathing Technique has reached perfection, and is at the same level as the sacred angels in the Cradle of Life.

At the age of less than sixteen, he had mastered the All-Spirit Breathing Technique to perfection, elevating his life essence to a level comparable to that of a transcendent being.

As long as you complete the job change, you can immediately become a top-notch existence among the first-level transcendents.

There are more than a hundred such geniuses among this batch of freshmen, which really opens Eric's eyes.

Since awakening his power, he has made six advance payments, three of which were used on the All-Spirit Breathing Technique.

Even so, his All-Spirit Breathing Technique had only reached the ninth level of mastery, still one step away from perfection.

But Eric felt that he would have to make at least three more advance payments to make this step before he could successfully break through.

As the number of advance payments increased, Eric also discovered certain characteristics of the power he had awakened.

Every advance payment is based on the 'present' as an anchor point to anticipate the future.

The specific effect of advance payment depends on many aspects, the most critical of which is one's own will.

The stronger the will, the farther into the future you can see when you activate your power, and the better the corresponding advance payment effect will be.

In other words, even though he is currently proficient in the ninth level of the All-Spirit Breathing Technique, he still needs to invest about two hundred years into the future before he can break through to the perfect stage.

However, those true geniuses were able to cultivate the All-Spirit Breathing Method to perfection before the age of sixteen without relying on any power. The gap between them was really outrageous.

But Eric didn't think too much about it. Those geniuses had their own powerful talents. Wasn't the power he awakened also his own talent?

That is a gift from God. Who dares to say that there is anything wrong with becoming stronger by relying on power?
After awakening his power, his talent has undoubtedly reached the top level in many worlds, and he just hasn't fully exerted his strength yet.

Moreover, power can be upgraded. This is the information from the Cradle of Life.

However, the upgrade conditions for each power are different, and you need to keep exploring to find out the specific requirements.

Eric is not clear about the upgrade conditions for "advance payment" yet, but he will find out later. If "advance payment" can be upgraded, its effect will definitely be greatly improved.

"Let's go to the freshman ceremony first."

Eric had awakened his power a year ago, but at that time the Kingdom of Dawn had not yet issued relevant regulations.

At that time, Eric had only taken the All-Spirit Breathing Technique once in advance. Although he had reached the minimum standard for taking the assessment, he failed any of the other assessment items and was eliminated without a doubt.

Although relevant regulations were introduced later, half a year had passed since the first enrollment of the Expedition Academy, so it was not appropriate to suddenly arrange for a group of God's favored people to join.

You can only wait until the second year to take the assessment, or enter the Expedition Academy through special recruitment.

Those favored by God whose age just exceeds the relevant standards can also enter the Expedition Academy through special recruitment.

Eric was not yet sixteen years old, and he also wanted to test the results of the six advance payments, so he took the test again.

There were no problems with this assessment, and Eric's overall score was ranked above average among this group of freshmen.

In addition to his academic performance, he has mastered the All-Spirit Breathing Technique to the ninth level and has also cultivated an advanced combat technique to perfection. His combat power belongs to the first tier below the extraordinary people.

Those freshmen who were stronger than him had either cultivated the All-Spirit Breathing Technique to perfection or mastered some extraordinary combat techniques. These people all possessed extraordinary combat power.

If one possesses both, then he can be considered a powerful existence among the first-level transcendents.

However, such geniuses are extremely rare among this batch of freshmen. According to Eric's observation, there should be no more than ten of them.

The freshman ceremony ended quickly. Most of the teachers at the Expedition Academy were masters in various fields from many worlds.

But there is also a small part that is the holy angels from the cradle of life.

The so-called holy angels are actually winged people, but the winged people of the Kingdom of Dawn are already a truly extraordinary race, and are blessed with [supernatural charm]. No one would compare them with ordinary winged people.

In addition, these winged people of the Kingdom of Dawn have a special status in many worlds, which is why they are called holy angels.

Even though he saw the holy angel he admired the most, Eric's expression did not fluctuate much.

Long before this, he had gained the attention of the top leaders of the world government by virtue of his status as a person favored by God.

The top management was also very considerate and helped him realize his dream. They directly arranged for his family to go to the Cradle of Life to admire the heroic figure of the holy angel.

That experience was something Eric would never forget. The cradle of life was truly a dreamland for all living things.

The resources there are so abundant that it is unimaginable, and the land is full of rare crops that are rarely seen in other worlds.

A handful of dirt picked up from the roadside, or a weed pulled out, can be sold for a high price in many worlds.

After seeing those things, Eric understood why there were some restrictions on going to the Cradle of Life.

In the face of huge interests, it is really easy to have some inappropriate thoughts.

If there are no restrictions and everyone in other worlds can go to the Cradle of Life at will, I am afraid that many people will not be able to restrain their greed and cause some jokes that no one wants to see.

During that trip to the Cradle of Life, Eric not only met the holy angel he admired the most, but also obtained permission to visit the training ground of the Holy Angel Legion.

The scene of tens of thousands of holy angel warriors training left an indelible memory in Eric's heart.

In addition, he even saw two intelligent races in the cradles of life besides the holy angels.

That is, nature fairies and ocean spirits.

One of these two races is born with the power of space, and the other has the power of destiny. Compared with those gods who awaken later in life, the power they possess is even more comprehensive and powerful.

However, what Eric awakened was the power of time. In the past two years, those favored by God who awakened the power of time were also the rarest.

This aroused the interest of the Ocean Spirit, who took the initiative to invite Eric to their place to chat for a while.

Natural fairies like to join in the fun and will certainly not miss anything that is interesting to them.

Eric also gained a lot from communicating with the ocean spirits and natural fairies.

The Ocean Spirit even sent Eric a blessing, saying that it could bring him some good luck, but Eric has not yet experienced the changes that the so-called good luck has brought him.

After that journey to the Cradle of Life, Eric had a new goal.

No longer content with merely meeting the Holy Angels, he must rely on his awakened powers to continue growing until he is truly capable of fighting alongside the Holy Angel Legion.

"Oh my god, these foods all contain high concentrations of life energy, which is even richer than the life energy in the original life fluid, and is also easier to absorb."

After the freshman ceremony, they came to the cafeteria to prepare for dinner.

In the cafeteria of the Expedition Academy, all food is provided free of charge. As long as you can finish it, you can eat as much as you want.

Moreover, long-term consumption of these foods can enhance the essence of life, which is more effective than the original liquid of life and can also increase the speed of practicing the All-Spirit Breathing Method.

"too delicious……"

With an intoxicated expression on his face, Nils spoke incoherently with his mouth full of food.

Seeing this, Eric also picked up a piece of prairie bull tenderloin and stuffed it into his mouth.

An indescribable delicious taste burst out in his mouth. Without having time to savor it, he swallowed the whole piece of meat.

Eric knew that his body was instinctively craving this energy.

Without any hesitation, Eric ate ​​one bite after another and soon finished the whole plate of beef.

After that, he ran to the food counter and brought back several plates of different kinds of food and returned to his seat, ready to satisfy himself.

Although he had received attention from senior management before and had been provided with all the resources needed for his growth, he had never eaten anything so delicious.

And it is not only delicious, its effect is far better than the essence of life.

You can enjoy these foods without restrictions every day, and the speed of practicing the All-Spirit Breathing Method can be greatly improved.

Even if you have just broken through to the mastery stage at the beginning, it will take only a few years to break through to perfection.

One of the requirements for the graduation assessment is to practice the All-Spirit Breathing Technique to perfection.

No wonder the requirement for humans is to pass the graduation examination within five years.

He is a genius selected from thousands of people and enjoys such good conditions. If he cannot meet the corresponding requirements within five years, then he is really a hopeless case.

"belch……"

After a satisfied burp, Eric finally put down the cutlery in his hand.

He had already eaten enough food for five people and had no room for more.

Nils, standing by, said enviously, "It's great to have a high progress in practicing the Myriad Spirits Breathing Technique. I've only just finished the second portion and I can't eat anymore.

I saw that those geniuses who had reached the perfect stage of the Myriad Souls Breathing Technique had each eaten at least ten servings of food."

Eric wiped his mouth and said slowly: "No matter how many servings there are, the right amount is the most important thing, and the cafeteria has a clear rule that waste is not allowed.

These foods have been specially prepared by culinary masters and have achieved a level of deliciousness that far exceeds that of ordinary foods.

It should also be motivating us to improve our practice of the All-Spirit Breathing Method so that we can eat more food, rather than just staring blankly at others enjoying delicious food after we're full."

"Ah, what you said makes sense. I must also speed up my cultivation progress."

Nils said with a determined look on his face that it was too uncomfortable to feel greedy even though you were full and couldn't eat anymore.

“Aside from the All-Spirit Breathing Technique, other lessons cannot be neglected.

In addition to academic performance, I remember there was another item in the graduation assessment, which was to master at least one extraordinary combat method to a proficient level.

Even if we are favored by God, we must meet the minimum standards for graduation assessment. After all, the Glory Expedition is no joke.

One must possess a certain level of self-protection. Those favored by the gods who fail to meet the minimum standard will not have any special recruitment channels."

Eric has enough confidence in himself. After all, the effect of "advance payment" can increase his training speed from the level of an ordinary person to the level of a top genius.

He was more worried about Nils. As far as he knew, Nils' power did not have the effect of assisting in cultivation, and his own talent in this area was not top-notch.

"I will try my best……"

Nils looked a little sad. He had never had good luck since he was a child. Whenever he played various games of chance with his friends, he would lose miserably.

I never thought that one day I would become that lucky person, receive God's gift, and awaken my own power.

But I don’t know how it happened, the power I awakened was actually from the destiny system.

You have to know that the concept of fate is inherently illusory, and some extraordinary people in the fate system also pay the most attention to the so-called fortune.

However, his fortune has been very average since he was a child, and he rarely encounters good things.

After a lot of hard work, he encountered a great opportunity, awakened his power, and became a person favored by God. However, it happened to be the power of the destiny system, and it was the kind of power that required luck to be effective.

After awakening his powers, Nils used the corresponding abilities several times, but none of them brought him any benefits.

Instead, he encountered several inexplicable dangers, which made Nils dare not use his power anymore.

But now I have come to the Expedition Academy, enjoying such good conditions, and I also have the opportunity to fight side by side with the Holy Angel Legion in the future.

If my power still has no effect, then after five years, I will definitely be persuaded to return to my own world.

Like Eric, Nils also worships the existence of holy angels and longs to fight alongside the Holy Angel Legion to bring salvation to the lower-class people in other worlds who are still oppressed.

Or perhaps this is the dream of most young boys and girls in all the worlds ruled by the Kingdom of Dawn.

Now that the way to realize my dream is right in front of me, I really can't hesitate any longer.

Thinking of this, Nils' eyes became firm.

……

On the other side, in the office of the dean of the college, there was a batch of documents on the table, which were the information of the new students favored by God.

The dean picked up the documents and looked through them one by one.

Advance, Traveler, Lucky Dice...

"These are some very interesting powers."

……

After the Expedition Academy was officially established, it has been able to supply a certain number of talents to the ten major armies of the Kingdom of Dawn every year.

Of course, it is still in the early stages of development. The number of talents supplied is too small and their strength is too low to form a Glory Expeditionary Corps. It will take time to train them.

However, as time goes by, more and more talents are sent from various worlds to the Ten Major Armies, and sooner or later they will be able to form a real legion and fight side by side with the army of the Kingdom of Dawn.

Moreover, in the future, the Kingdom of Dawn will rule over more and more worlds, and the Glory Expedition will cover more and more worlds.

By then, the role played by the Glory Expeditionary Corps will become increasingly important, and may become an indispensable part of the Kingdom of Dawn's external conquests.
