Full-time Creation Master

"Of 300 Quinjet fighters, 185 have crashed, a loss rate of nearly 62%!"

"Pilots parachuted into battle on a battlefield where humans had a slight advantage, but the survival rate was only 35%, with only 65 pilots surviving!"

"In total, the Air Force alone suffered 185 aircraft losses, 41 minor repairs, and 123 pilots killed in action!"

"But the results are good!"

Chu Ming received data analysis from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s central control AI, Aegis, which, through camera comparisons, concluded that "Fighter units eliminated 5114 Slave-class White Hawks, 780 General-class White Hawks, and 1 Commander-class Four-Clawed Hawk!"

Chu Ming did the math, "Based on the consumption, it's not a loss!"

However, the Quinjet is still best suited for targeting ground-based enemies; it is at a disadvantage in air combat!

However, if air combat is required, we have no choice but to grit our teeth and include it!

"Ah~~~ The White Demon Eagle has retreated, the Black Serpent is safe, the criminals have been brought to justice, everything is so wonderful!"

Lingling suddenly exclaimed, "It seems like I didn't participate much!"

"A little disappointed?" Chu Ming asked in return.

"Hmm!" Leng Lingling made no attempt to hide her yearning for excitement at that moment. "How about we go to Northern Xinjiang? It's a hot tourist destination right now!"

"Hmm..." Chu Ming pondered for a moment, "Let's go to the next stop. First, head south to the Ten Thousand Mountains, then west to the ancient capital..."

"The Ten Thousand Mountains?" Lingling muttered to herself, "The poison-type legion is indeed very effective!"

"But what are you going to the ancient capital for? Has your necromancy skill broken through?"

"secret.!!!"

.........

With the events in Hangzhou coming to an end, Chu Ming paid no further attention to the aftermath of Xuan She, Zhu Meng, and the others.

Surely it can't be worse than the original story?

"Next stop, Huai Ren City. Please keep an eye on your luggage and disembark in an orderly fashion!"

A day later, with the respectful farewell of the previous Holy Maiden, Granny Chu, and the current Holy Son, Xiong Miao, and their repeated apologies (the current Holy Maiden had not yet arrived), Chu Ming and Lingling once again boarded the train leaving Huai Ren City...

Some seeds are better off germinating slowly!

Chu Ming originally planned to go directly to the ancient capital, because that crazy woman, Sa Lang, didn't seem to listen to him!

The preparations for the ancient capital haven't stopped yet!

It seemed that the pursuit of 10 monarch-level undead vampires was not enough. Chu Ming immediately ordered Scott, "Intensify the Black Vatican's crackdown efforts!"

Even Chu Ming, a monarch-level figure from the Hall of Offerings, sent out another 10!

However, these are all minor matters!

What affected Chu Ming and Lingling's journey was something else entirely—the World University Competition!

Its original purpose was to provide a platform for exchange and competition among magic academies around the world, promote the growth of the younger generation of magicians, and also serve as a stage to showcase the teaching achievements and strength of various universities.

The competition aims to select outstanding young magicians and cultivate talent for the future development of the magical world.

The participating teams consist of top magic academies from around the world.

Each university will send its best student representatives to participate in the competition.

These institutions include, but are not limited to, the Imperial University of Beijing and the Pearl University of London in China, the Parthenon University in the United States, the Pyramid University in Egypt, and the Mount Fuji University in Japan.

It's basically held every four years!

Typically, the selection process begins a year prior at various universities, requiring participants to be no older than 25 and refrain from using forbidden techniques...

The competition includes multiple events, both individual and team competitions.

The competition mainly consists of practical combat and assigned tasks, comprehensively assessing the contestants' magical skills, adaptability, teamwork ability, and other overall qualities.

The competition is divided into several stages. The first stage is the preliminary round, in which each university will select its own representatives to participate.

After the preliminary rounds comes the official competition, where students from each school give their all to compete for votes...

Through group stages and knockout rounds, the final champion will be determined, who will be the National Team player.

The players ranked in the top 10 to 15 of the National Team are generally considered to be National Team members.

The 10th to 20th place finishers in the reserve team will serve as national team members, defending their positions and exchanging skills with national team members from various countries who come to challenge them!

Meanwhile, the National Academy team members need to rely on their own strength and wisdom to continuously defeat other national academy teams, accumulate winning titles, and qualify for the World University Competition.

The winner of the competition will not only receive endless fame, but will also receive a huge amount of resources to nurture them!

The winning country in the competition will be able to secure a significant share of the international resource allocation in the next four years!

How big is it?

The first-place winner typically has 30% more resources than the second-place winner, and the second-place winner has 30% more resources than the third-place winner...

What's embarrassing is that China's nominees in the previous two World University Competitions couldn't even make it into the top 16!

It's becoming a laughing stock in many countries!

As for the resources that are disputed and difficult to divide among countries in the world, the amount that China has obtained is almost negligible given its size!

It is now 2019, and there are still two years until the next World University Competition!

The topic, however, sparked an argument...

It became even more popular after it was linked to the endless stream of geniuses of our time!

For reasons unknown, the Dragon Kingdom Parliament decided to conduct the selection of National Government team members two years ahead of schedule!

By now, you should have some guesses!

Of the eighteen top-tier geniuses in the Dragon Kingdom, half of them are from academies and all of them are qualified to participate!

Especially Chu Ming, his strength is simply unfair (everyone agrees)!

If he can participate, the resources that the Dragon Kingdom can acquire next time will increase by 1.3^(16) = 66.5 times. How much will that stimulate people's livelihood projects and alleviate military pressure?

Therefore, Principal Xiao, Military Commander Long Tiechuan, and some councilors all called to invite Chu Ming to attend!

please!

However, some individuals who are deeply connected to S.H.I.E.L.D. and Chu Ming, such as Congressman Wang, the grandfather of the Wang sisters, subtly reveal caution, conspiracy, and danger!

It would be ideal to lure Chu Ming out of the heavily guarded S.H.I.E.L.D. and then, in a legitimate and legal way, "seriously injure or even kill" him!

Currently, there are definitely more people in this world who want Chu Ming's head than those who want to protect it!

With only four years of resources and a future that can be monetized in the foreseeable future, many people are unwilling to let Chu Ming take this risk!

With so many calls from powerful figures, Chu Ming had no choice but to focus his attention on the Raikage clone and speak only after careful consideration.

After two days of delay, and with Lingling extremely bored and impatient, the two set off again!

"Next stop, Ancient City. Please keep an eye on your luggage and disembark in an orderly fashion!"

Ancient capital!

A place with a green safety rating, but a red safety rating once you leave the city!

Beneath the ancient capital city lies the burial site of countless monarch-level and even emperor-level demons!

Nobody knows, and nobody wants to know!

And everyone in the ancient capital, and even those who have lived there, knows one thing: if one day the spirits of the dead beneath the ancient capital awaken, then the world will change!

Throughout history, the tombs of every founding emperor and revitalizing emperor were always built in the ancient capital!

It seems to have become the fate of every emperor to resist in life, suppress after death, and suppress the increasingly powerful and restless spirits of the dead!
