Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 120 Barracks Base, Many Targets

Giant Puppet Star.

One of the eight major logistics bases within human territory, and also the closest 'troop transport station' for Qi Yuan to travel to the battlefield outside the region.

Qi Yuan arrived here aboard a powerful E9-class flagship spaceship that he had previously obtained, and it took him more than a year to reach the destination.

"drop!"

"Master, signal identification successful. We have received the guidance signal from the Giant Puppet Star and are about to land."

The voice of the spaceship's auxiliary intelligence came to my ears.

"Land."

Qi Yuan responded softly.

Whoosh!
The E9-class spacecraft descended rapidly following the guidance signal sent from the planet.

The spaceship parking platform on the giant golem planet.

Just as Qi Yuan stored the spaceship into his personal world, a man wearing black standard combat armor stepped forward.

"Hello, I am a staff member from Giant Puppet Star responsible for guiding travelers. If you wish to travel to the extraterrestrial battlefield, please follow this passage to the assembly point and wait for unified teleportation."

The armored man instructed Qi Yuan.

99% of those who come to this giant goblin star are heading to the extraterrestrial battlefield, so his explanation was simple and direct.

"Okay, thank you."

Qi Yuan smiled and nodded, then quickly walked towards a wide crystal passage not far away.

After traveling for over a thousand kilometers along the passage, we finally arrived at an extremely spacious open-air plaza.

The entire square is hundreds of kilometers long and wide, and you can see alloy tables, chairs and benches everywhere.

Figures were scattered randomly throughout the square, numbering at least ten thousand.

Qi Yuan casually found a place to sit down, but his gaze quickly swept over the figures in various parts of the square.

As he continued to scan the area, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"Heh, it seems those who dare to come to the extraterritorial battlefield are all quite capable; their return rates are all pretty high."

The entire square was sparsely populated with tens of thousands of people, most of whom were Domain Lords, and a few were World Lords or Universe Lords.

Leaving aside the realm lords, even among the domain lords and universe lords, a considerable number have a basic return multiplier of over 40!

According to Qi Yuan's judgment, these people are all definitely 'realm lords'!

Such a base return multiplier of over 40 is extremely rare, and you can hardly find many in a single star system on a regular basis.

And among the tens of thousands of people in this square, there are at least several hundred with this kind of talent, the probability is frighteningly high!
However, it's not hard to understand. Those who dare to come to the extraterritorial battlefield alone, apart from a few who are desperate, are mostly people who have great confidence in their own strength.

Such people are usually quite talented.

"Hey, that person..."

Qi Yuan's gaze swept across the room, and he was soon completely drawn to a figure in a distant corner.

It was a blond boy with a slightly immature face, dressed in ancient black armor.

The boy sat alone in a corner of the square, casually drinking a purplish-red beverage, looking like a quiet middle school student.

However, in Qi Yuan's eyes, this young man was definitely not as simple as he appeared on the surface!
[Target: Noah Lanswell; base return rate: 52x; can be bound to the target after becoming a disciple.]

That blond-haired youth not only possessed the peak of the World Lord level, but his basic return rate had also reached 52 times!
With such talent, she is in no way inferior to Qi Yuan's fourth disciple, Mireya!

Qi Yuan never expected that upon arriving at the concentration area of ​​this giant puppet star, he would discover a genius with a basic return rate exceeding 50 times!

"However, such a peak Realm Lord genius probably has some background; it might not be easy to make a move against him. Let's observe first."

He didn't do anything rashly, but simply sat quietly in his seat and waited.

Two days later, when 100 realm lords had gathered in the square, an immortal god surrounded by purple lightning finally appeared before them!
"Cosmic level and Domain Lord level, you will each follow those two individuals, who will grant you the necessary permissions."

"All World Lords, come to my side!"

The immortal god spoke, and his domineering voice echoed throughout the entire plaza.

Wow~~~
The tens of thousands of lone soldiers who wanted to go to the battlefield outside the region were quickly categorized.

Those at the Domain Lord and Universe Lord levels were guided by two World Lord-level staff members with their subordinates, while Qi Yuan and the other one hundred World Lords gathered in front of the immortal god of lightning.

"Fellow Realm Lords and Warriors, you are about to head to the most glorious and brutal extraterrestrial battlefield. However, you must understand that the army has its own rules and will not be as free as you were when you traveled alone before!"

The immortal deity, whose body was wreathed in lightning, solemnly declared, "Therefore, before we set off, we need to perform a traditional authority-granting ceremony for you."

"Permission granting ceremony?"

"What?"

Most of the lone realm lords were visiting the extraterritorial battlefield for the first time, and they were somewhat puzzled when they heard this term.

"I almost forgot about this procedure."

Qi Yuan, standing in the crowd, showed a hint of interest. "I wonder what level they'll give me later."

Having read the original work, Qi Yuan naturally understood the intricacies of the matter. The authority rating of Realm Lords in the Extraterrestrial Battlefield was divided into three levels: 'Ordinary Realm Lord Warrior', 'Elite Realm Lord Warrior', and 'Realm Lord General'.

Most realm lords are ordinary realm lord warriors; those who can gain the recognition of the origin laws can barely be considered elite realm lord warriors; as for realm lord generals, they are the best among elite realm lords, and on average, only one realm lord general can appear out of hundreds of elite realm lord warriors.

The higher the authority rating, the greater the status and freedom within the team.

"The granting of authority is to determine your precise position within the military. The military is a hierarchical system where subordinates must obey their superiors. As for the method of authority allocation, it is determined by the virtual universe system based on your strongest combat capabilities demonstrated in the virtual universe."

At this time, the immortal god of thunder and lightning had already explained the matter of authority rating to the group of lone world lords.

"Alright, I've explained the specific criteria to you. If anyone hasn't yet demonstrated their full strength in the virtual universe, they can now enter the virtual universe network and unleash their full power. We'll begin granting permissions shortly!"

Upon hearing this, many of the realm masters present immediately separated a wisp of their consciousness to connect to the virtual universe, attempting to unleash their strongest combat power in order to obtain a higher rating later.

Qi Yuan, on the other hand, stood there idly.

Over the past few years, he has frequently practiced his secret techniques in the killing arena, and he has already demonstrated what he was supposed to demonstrate.

The immortal deity waited about ten seconds before casually speaking:

"Alright, everything should be fine now. Come over one by one in line and begin granting permissions."

Upon hearing this, the 100 realm lords gathered here immediately lined up and walked towards the immortal god in turn.

Meanwhile, the screen on the immortal god's arm guard continuously emitted beams of blue light, which enveloped the approaching realm lords one by one.

"Ordinary realm lord warrior!"

"Elite Realm Master Warrior!"

"Elite Realm Master Warrior!"

The screen on the arm guard of the immortal god of lightning continuously emitted sounds.

Among the realm lords present, elite realm lords made up the majority.

Soon it was Qi Yuan's turn, and he strode forward.

A blue light instantly enveloped him, followed by a crisp notification sound—

"Lord of the Realm Warrior".

Wow!
This scene immediately drew the attention of many realm lords around Qi Yuan.

None of these realm lords expected that there was a realm lord general hidden among their group!
They had just heard from that immortal god that even among hundreds of elite realm lord warriors, there might not be a single realm lord general!

"There's a Realm Lord War General in this batch? Heh, not bad!"

Even the immortal god of lightning showed a rare smile.

Qi Yuan calmly walked to the side, not too surprised.

Although it has only been four or five years since he obtained the secret technique of creating clones, his progress during those four or five years, aided by the powerful talents of the Three Pure Ones clones, has been terrifying!
Especially in the realm of the laws of time, thanks to the powerful time talent of Yuqing's clone, coupled with the return of teaching experience and the comprehension gained from studying the "Array of Time," his progress in the path of time has even faintly surpassed that of the laws of lightning!
With such exaggerated progress, his combat power naturally increased dramatically, so it was to be expected that he would be recognized as a 'World Lord Warrior'.

The granting of permissions was carried out extremely quickly. In the end, only Qi Yuan, a Realm Lord Warrior, emerged from among the 100 Realm Lords. There were also 63 elite Realm Lord Warriors and 36 ordinary Realm Lord Warriors.

As for the blond boy that Qi Yuan had been paying attention to, his final authority rating was Elite Realm Lord Warrior.

Once the authorization process for the domain lords, who had the largest number of members, was completed, the Immortal God of Thunder immediately summoned everyone together.

"Permissions granted. According to the military system's notification, you have been assigned to the Ninth Extraterritorial Battlefield."

The immortal god's voice boomed, "All of you, come with me! I will teleport you to the barracks base of the Ninth Battlefield!"

Tens of thousands of warriors followed the immortal god of thunder and lightning, advancing rapidly until they arrived at a huge hall.

Within this hall are passageways resembling spatial water curtains, which serve as teleportation routes to various battlefields outside the realm.

"You will be heading to the 031st God Base in the Ninth Battlefield. Once inside, you can proceed directly through the corresponding transfer passage."

Qi Yuan and tens of thousands of soldiers entered one of the passages under the guidance of that immortal god, and then used the divine kingdom behind the passage as a transit point to teleport again.

When they reappeared, they were already at the No. 031 barracks base in the Ninth Extraterritorial Battlefield, far from the human territory.
……

"Haha, a new person has arrived!"

"New recruits are arriving!"

Behind the passage, there were already personnel specifically responsible for guiding the process. The moment tens of thousands of soldiers appeared, a team of soldiers in white armor immediately stepped forward to escort them.

"A cosmic-level being, come this way!"

"Domain lords should use this passage."

"Lords of the realm, please follow me."

Guided by soldiers in white armor, the tens of thousands of new recruits who had just been teleported to the 031st barracks base were led to disperse again before they could even see their surroundings clearly, and they quickly dispersed along different channels.

Qi Yuan and 100 other realm lords followed a bald young soldier and quickly arrived at a magnificent hall with extremely luxurious decorations.

The entire hall had tens of millions of seats, and a large number of realm lords and a few immortal gods were gathered here. At a glance, there were at least three or four hundred thousand people!

Qi Yuan's gaze swept quickly over the hundreds of thousands of Realm Lord warriors in the arena, and an excited light couldn't help but shine in his eyes.

"53 times. 50 times. 51 times. Another 53 times. Hahaha, good, good, good! This is really a great place!"
