121: Chapter 121 and below, attacking the upper level.
Federal Calendar, Seventh Era: June 5, 6980, 9:00 PM.
After bidding farewell to No. 56, Chen Mo dove headfirst into the law simulation room, a place known as a gold-swallowing hole.
Counting the Virtual Points sent by Blue Cave previously and the over two million commission he received from White Phoenix, Chen Mo's Virtual Points now exceeded twenty million.
With so many points, he indulged in a rare luxury, directly cranking the power of the law simulation room to a hundredfold.
Under hundredfold power, Chen Mo's perception of the surrounding law threads even surpassed the efficiency he experienced while absorbing Plane Power.
Of course, the cost was enormous; a law simulation room at 100x power consumed one million Virtual Points from Chen Mo every hour.
After burning through a full nine million Virtual Points, feasible divine art nodes and model architectures took shape in his mind, transforming into an earthy-yellow talisman engraved with blood-colored patterns that branded itself into his soul.
A Fourth-Tier Divine Art!
The first Fourth-Tier Divine Art Chen Mo had acquired since his transmigration.
Success!
"Dean Xue, that's the situation. I won't hide it from you—I do have some selfish motives. If this kid is still willing to delve deep into the Virus System after graduation, I want to recruit him into my research institute."
In the office of Vice Dean Xue Mingyun at Qun Xing High Academy, Professor Xu Bo spoke bluntly about his reasons for recommending Chen Mo to the God Selection Class.
"Ranked 41st on the bright moon ranking... this...!" The elder dressed in academician robes frowned and looked at Professor Xu Bo in front of him. "Is the Prodigy Class not good enough?"
"If it were just for the Prodigy Class, why would I come to you?" Professor Xu Bo said unceremoniously.
At The Stars, those who could be titled professors were the absolute pillars of the academy.
Although Professor Xu Bo wasn't considered the top among professors, he still had the qualifications to offer suggestions and make requests to the school.
"Old Xu, I won't lie to you. Two days ago, another professor came to see me, wanting a Student he favors to enter the God Selection Class, and that person's rank on the bright moon ranking is two spots higher than this Chen Mo."
Vice Dean Xue Mingyun shook his head and sighed, causing Professor Xu Bo's brow to furrow instantly.
Everything suffers when compared.
If he were the only one asking for a favor, there was a over 90% chance Xue Mingyun would agree out of respect for him.
But such things cannot be repeated; if everyone acted this way, the God Selection Class would lose its original purpose.
"Beep beep beep..."
Just as Professor Xu Bo was hesitating whether to give up, a message suddenly arrived on his virtual watch.
Professor Xu Bo hadn't intended to look closely, but after seeing the sender, he browsed through it completely and then said, "Dean Xue, just pretend I was never here."
Professor Xu Bo turned to leave, but before he did, an intriguing smile flashed across the corner of his mouth.
Xue Mingyun was also an old fox; he immediately had some guesses in his heart.
However, he didn't stop the departing Professor Xu Bo. Instead, he opened his virtual watch and sent a message to his assistant.
"Check Chen Mo's current status."
"Understood, Dean."
Shortly after, the assistant sent a screenshot from the virtual network.
It was none other than the current bright moon ranking.
bright moon ranking: 21st... Chen Mo!
"Kid, I've lived for nearly 9,000 years, yet I almost had my eyes pecked out by a fledgling eagle like you!"
Myriad Domain Arena, Unrestricted Arena.
An old man leaning on a staff looked disdainfully at the figure besieged by ten Demigod Followers dozens of kilometers away.
The opponent was so young, young enough to make him jealous.
"Ranked 21st on the bright moon ranking. Heh, a prodigy? Even a prodigy will meet their end here with me, this old man."
As he spoke, the divine artifact staff in his hand had already begun to condense divine power.
Judging by the aura, it seemed to be some kind of multi-law Third-Tier Divine Art.
For Shinto deities, age is both a disadvantage and an advantage.
Chen Mo was young, with an infinite future.
Although this old man didn't have many years left to live, it had to be admitted that at the same rank, these old fogies possessed nearly absolute dominance, unless...
"At your age, why not enjoy your retirement in peace? Is there any point in coming to the Myriad Domain Arena to seek a sense of existence?"
Chen Mo's disdainful voice slowly rang out.
In the next second, a blinding radiance of a divine art sank into the ground from his hand.
The earth for hundreds of miles around turned into a blood-like crimson at this moment.
Gigantic blood-colored hands, each a thousand meters long, rose from the ground, grabbing and exploding the Demigod Followers in front of Chen Mo one by one.
As for the old man, before he could release the divine art in his hand...
A bottomless vortex a kilometer wide appeared beneath his feet, swallowing the old man into the earth in the blink of an eye.
"Winner: Chen Mos former in-game nickname. Current Rank: Star Scar I, Net Points: 29."
"Please note, your bright moon ranking has risen by one place. Current Rank: 20."
"Continue."
"Matching for you."
Chen Mo ignored the system prompts of the Myriad Domain Arena and instead looked at Yu Mo, who had suddenly appeared before him.
"What is it?"
"Master, the First Federal Deity Academy just sent you an invitation to the God Selection Class."
"Is that so?"
Chen Mo smiled, but he remained unmoved in his heart.
The status of the various High Academies in the Federation was somewhat special.
They were not just simple higher education institutions; every Deity High Academy was equivalent to a complex, entrenched power, or rather, a divine system.
But the First Federal Deity Academy was different.
It was the only one of the Big Five completely controlled by the Federation, and it was the most suitable top institution for commoner Students and children of ordinary families.
"Aside from The Stars, which has been watching me all along, the 'Federal University' is indeed the fastest to act. But that's normal; my background truly fits the Federal University's recruitment preferences best."
Shaking his head, Chen Mo looked at Yu Mo. "Send a thank-you letter, but don't show any specific leaning."
"Understood, Master."
Yu Mo nodded her little head, and her figure vanished instantly.
This time, it wasn't that Yu Mo left on her own, but rather...
"Match successful!"
The system prompt sounded.
A new figure appeared a hundred miles away from Chen Mo.
"Finally, it's not one of those old guys."
Before Chen Mo could speak, this person spoke first, their gaze towards Chen Mo filled with scrutiny and provocation.
bright moon ranking! Yao Chong.
Rank: 11
