Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Star God Chosen Ones. These two words echoed in Qin Jin’s heart. Chu Tianyi’s voice was calm as he continued, "Just like the Chosen Ones in the novels and biographies that you young people read." "Those recognized by the Star God are equivalent to this, thus the naming of the Chosen Ones Program." "Ultimately, those who gain the Star God’s recognition have the opportunity to receive the Star God’s favor, with many benefits." Qin Jin fell silent. After personally participating, he finally came to understand the secrets of this planet. Within the seemingly ordinary Mining Star resides the Divine Spirit, and even before its emergence, it had already been targeted, becoming the objective of the Federation’s plans. Using human schemes to plan for the Divine Spirit. Perhaps this is the true essence accumulated by the Starfire Federation, this branch of human civilization, after entering the Star Sea. "Qin Jin, do you have any other questions?" Chu Tianyi, seeing his pondering expression, took the initiative to ask. Qin Jin thought for a moment, finally saying, "If the Star God is so important, why doesn’t the Federation directly take over to ensure no mishaps occur?" "Why...?" "Why are we, those born on the Mining Star, chosen to participate?" "Qin Jin, what do you think the Federation is?" Chu Tianyi countered, not waiting for Qin Jin to speak, and continued, "Countless years ago, our ancestors from the Ancestral Star discovered the heritage left by an unknown civilization and formed the Federation, stepping into the Star Sea." "That was nearly ten thousand years ago." "With time, the Star Sea is full of opportunities, countless people and forces have risen, the Federation now is no longer what it once was." "The Federation itself is a political coalition of various forces." "Were it not for the Evil Gods inhabiting the Star Sea, nor the existence of other intelligent civilizations, with external enemies surrounding, the Federation might have already disintegrated." "The Chosen Ones Program related to the [Star God] was established after careful consideration and due to painful incidents in the past." "It’s like a relatively fair competition." "Only young native life born on the planet has the chance to approach the Star God." "Thus, you all have become the protagonists of this competition." "The Mining Star is your battlefield." "And like me, other forces, spent resources to obtain [tickets] from the Federation, and only when the restrictions are lifted, which is now, can they participate, and select young people from the Mining Star for cultivation." "Under the Federation’s supervision, while many forces have arrangements, basic fairness is maintained, everyone stands almost on the same starting line." "Now, until the Star God emerges, it’s your final sprint moment." His words ended. Qin Jin looked at him, his tone steady, and asked the final question. "Teacher Chu." "Involving the Star God, the forces obtaining tickets you mentioned must have demands. "Then, what are you seeking by participating in the Chosen Ones Program?" Upon hearing his question, Chu Tianyi smiled calmly. "To approach the Star God, you must confront the dangers native to this planet, and also face other competitors." "If you truly become the ultimate winner." Chu Tianyi fixed his gaze on Qin Jin, "Then, I need an opportunity to face the Star God directly and converse with it." ... Inside the base. Under the guidance of a specialist, Qin Jin entered a special building. This building is approximately a hundred square meters in size, with the ceiling, floor, and surroundings made of special holographic screens, presenting the scene of the Star Sea above, as if truly immersed in the starry sky. In the center of the room. There’s a crystal sphere about half a man’s height, appearing somewhat dreamy, hovering in the air, rotating at a steady pace. Qin Jin took in the entire room, found a seat, and began waiting. The information Chu Tianyi provided wasn’t detailed, but for Qin Jin, it was sufficient. He sat on the chair, thoughts flickering in his eyes. "This is already the best choice." "The young generation born on the Mining Star, as long as they show talent, there’s a possibility of being selected by a force to participate in this Chosen Ones Program." "At least now, I’m not facing an entirely unknown force, and have already secured the final slot." "Involving the Star God, this indeed is a great opportunity." In his thoughts. The door opened. A tall figure stepped in. It was a man, middle-aged, with a square face, appearing quite righteous. He was dressed simply, and upon entering the room, his gaze fell on Qin Jin. "I am Su Chaotang." "Grandmaster Realm." "For the upcoming period, I will be responsible for your martial arts instruction." Martial Arts Grandmaster! Fourth Realm. Qin Jin’s expression was solemn as he addressed, "Teacher Su." Su Chaotang nodded slightly, his tone steady, "I’ve reviewed your file, your Life Energy is extremely active, able to pass the boss’s test, with a high Life Index, you’re already leading within the Newborn Realm." "Given this, your forthcoming cultivation should focus on Spiritual Will, supplemented by Life Energy." "According to what the boss said, your possible opponents are all within the First Three Realms, thus the spiritual aspect is crucial, a stronger spiritual force gains the advantage." "In addition to these foundational cultivations, you also need to start learning new Combat Techniques." "Come." After summoning, Su Chaotang led to the crystal sphere at the center of the room. "Now, try to control your Spiritual Power to touch it." Qin Jin did as instructed. His Spiritual Power was mobilized, extending outward, and lightly touched the crystal sphere. At the moment of contact. A sensation of traversing came. In an instant, as if using the Martial Arts Crystal for Visualization before, he entered another world. This was an immensely vast world, all around it was blank, a white world void of anything, appearing somewhat eerie. Qin Jin looked down, only to see his spiritual will evolved into the shape of a human, though somewhat blurred, semi-transparent. "This is the world inside the Trial Crystal." Qin Jin turned towards the voice. Su Chaotang’s figure appeared beside him, compared to Qin Jin, his figure was solid, life-like, vivid. His voice was serious, "Using Visualization Techniques for cultivation of spirit allows the martial artist’s spirit to gradually grow under pressure." "But simply exerting pressure is not the best approach." "At appropriate moments, spiritual pressure must be released, in spiritual confrontations to temper the will, only then can faster growth be achieved." His voice ended. In this blank world, one figure after another condensed from spiritual power emerged. These figures included humans, beasts, some wielding weapons, others baring their fangs and claws. "Have a good experience, young man." "When your spirit grows weak, the Trial Crystal will send you out." After leaving these parting words. Su Chaotang’s figure disappeared. Qin Jin’s gaze fixed ahead. At this moment, those figures of spiritual power condensed opponents charged towards him. In the room. Su Chaotang opened his eyes, called up a screen, began recording above. The text above was precisely a list of cultivation plans. ... At the center of the base. The top floor of the building. Chu Tianyi supported himself on the platform with both hands, watching the scene on the screen before him. Inside, it was Qin Jin and Su Chaotang. Behind him. Chu Yan watched this scene, softly speaking, "Boss, I thought you’d personally guide him." "Qin Jin is indeed a promising talent." Chu Tianyi sighed, "But, don’t underestimate Su Chaotang either." He looked at the middle-aged man on the screen earnestly "preparing lessons", "He refused recruitment from various forces, aiming to carve his own path without the Martial Saint’s Secret Technique." "This person’s courage is remarkable." "He’s been stagnant in the Grandmaster Realm for many years; if we talk about understanding the First Four Realms, my experience in martial arts, after switching careers halfway, can’t compare to his."
