Taibai Academy Admissions Notice! We only accept prodigies and nurture true dragons!

The live stream ended abruptly here.

There were no long-winded speeches, no grand or stirring background music.

From Lin Xiyue severing the mountain with a single sword strike, to that final sentence announcing the dawn of a new era.

The entire process didn't even take five minutes.

It was so fast it caught everyone off guard, and so ruthless it made one's scalp tingle.

The screen faded back to darkness, reflecting countless faces that were stunned, shocked, and fanatical.

This live stream was like a nuclear bomb of staggering yield, shattering the perceptions of the old era in the shortest time and in the most simple and brutal way!

Is this... the end?

Yes, it was over.

For Lin Xiyue and the others, they didn't need to over-explain, they didn't need to argue, and they certainly didn't need to prove anything to anyone.

The brilliance of that sword strike and the severed mountain peak were the most domineering declaration for this new era!

After a brief dead silence.

BOOM!!!

The entire Great Xia erupted with an unprecedented wave of sound.

In office buildings, white-collar workers who were originally typing on their keyboards jumped up suddenly, throwing the documents in their hands into the air.

In schools, a group of primary and middle school students who only half-understood what was happening, led by their teachers, excitedly banged on their desks and yelled wildly.

On the streets, strangers excitedly embraced each other, tears glistening in their eyes.

Even more extreme, some rushed directly to their balconies and let out long, roaring shouts toward the sky, using this to vent the surging, restless passion in their hearts!

"It's real! It's all f*cking real!"

"The authorities have shown their hand! No more pretending! The era of Cultivation has truly arrived!"

"In my lifetime, I've actually been able to witness such a miracle! Thank you to the country! Thank you to Fairy Xiyue!"

Online, servers were once again overwhelmed, with tens of millions of posts flooding in within the same minute.

"Brothers, I'm fired up! Did you see that sword strike just now? Terrifying, simply terrifying!"

"I don't understand! This is only the Golden Core Realm? This is a f*cking Nuclear Bomb Realm, right! It's a proper walking humanoid nuclear weapon!"

"Too cool! So cool! I want to Cultivate too! I want to sever mountains too!"

The carnival lasted for several whole hours, but as more people calmed down, a new topic was pushed to the top of the trending list.

#Mass Cultivation, When Will It Finally Be Our Turn?#

That's right, Cultivation is real, and the era has begun.

But the problem is, the authorities' current actions seem to only target college students nationwide.

So, have they, the corporate slaves who have already graduated, the children still in school, and even the retired elderly, been abandoned?

"Anxious, anxious, anxious! I am the King of Anxiety! I want to Cultivate too!"

"Strongly demand it be promoted to the whole society! I am willing to contribute to the country! I also want to become an Immortal!"

"College students are the flowers of the motherland, and we workers are just the fertilizer, right? Waaah!"

"Bro, don't panic. Since they said it's for everyone, there must be a plan. It's probably that the teaching staff can't keep up, so it has to be done step by step."

"Exactly! What's everyone rushing for? Relax, trust Motherland, it will definitely be our turn!"

Just as the entire internet was anxious, speculating, and even wailing about the qualifications for Cultivation, the official website of the Great Xia Ministry of Education, as well as the website of the mysterious Taibai Academy, simultaneously updated with a pinned announcement!

【Taibai Academy First Phase Enrollment Plan】

As soon as these words appeared, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Countless eyes, filled with longing and trepidation, clicked on the document.

However, when they saw the content inside, the previously clamorous internet was like being choked by the neck, instantly falling silent.

Following that, there was a uniform sound of gasping.

The enrollment plan was not long, one could even say it was very brief, with only a few core points, but each one felt like a mountain, pressing down until people couldn't catch their breath.

【Enrollment Scope: This enrollment is only open to all currently registered college students nationwide.】

【Selection Criteria: Starting from today, all universities nationwide have fully distributed the "Basic Body Forging Art" and supporting Cultivation resources. All students must, within ten days of receiving the Cultivation Technique, comprehend and practice it under the guidance of instructors.】

【Admission Conditions: Those who successfully perceive the flow of Qi and blood and formally step into the 'Body Tempering First Level' Realm within ten days will be eligible for the Taibai Academy entrance examination!】

【Note: This enrollment does not look at college entrance exam scores, nor family background; only talent matters! Whether you are a top student at Qingbei or a vocational student, as long as you can break through within ten days, you all have the opportunity to ascend to the heavens in a single step!】

After reading these rules, everyone fell silent.

Ten days! Only ten days!

And the requirement is—stepping into the Body Tempering First Level!

Although most ordinary people didn't know exactly what the Body Tempering First Level concept was, they knew even with their toes that this was definitely not a simple matter!

It's Cultivation!

That is the legendary act of defying Heaven to change one's fate, of becoming extraordinary!

In the past, those who sought the Dao of Immortals often exhausted their entire lives without even touching the threshold.

Even in those Cultivation novels, when the protagonist starts Cultivating, it takes several months or even years just to guide Qi into the body.

But now, the deadline given by Taibai Academy is only a mere ten days?!

Is this even enrollment?

This is clearly sifting through the sand, filtering out the true gold from tens of millions of people!

"Hiss... Ten days to enter Body Tempering? This condition... isn't it a bit too harsh?"

"Although I don't understand Cultivation, I know that in ten days, one probably can't even memorize that Cultivation Technique, right?"

"Too ruthless! Truly too ruthless! Is this the threshold for Great Xia's premier Cultivation Academy?"

"This isn't recruiting students anymore, this is recruiting monsters!"

"Nonsense! Don't you see what kind of place that is? That is a Holy Land personally overseen by Fairy Xiyue!"

"If just anyone could get in, what kind of premier academy would it be?"

Some felt despair, thinking they had no chance.

But even more people, especially those students who were usually obscure or not academically outstanding, now had flames burning in their eyes!

No grades! No background! Only talent and effort!

For them, this was simply the biggest, and perhaps only, opportunity in their lives to completely change their fate and achieve a class transformation!

"Ten days... only ten days!"

"Damn it! I'll go all out! For these ten days, I won't eat or sleep until I succeed!"

"Although I couldn't get into Qingbei, I don't believe I can't do this Cultivation thing!"

"Maybe I'm also a one-in-a-million peerless Genius?!"

"Are kings and nobles born with high status? This time, I will become one of the elite!"

In an instant, the atmosphere at major universities across the country changed.

Students who were originally somewhat lax and had a playful attitude were now all acting as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

The libraries were empty, the internet cafes were empty, and even the small groves where couples dated were empty.

Everyone returned to their dorms or went to the sports field, clutching that newly distributed "Basic Body Forging Art," studying and practicing it with insatiable hunger.

At this moment, the entire younger generation of Great Xia began a frenzied competition for that ticket to Taibai Academy!

At the end of the announcement, there was a passage marked in bold red text that made people's blood boil and their hearts surge with excitement.

【Taibai Academy will officially open in ten days!】

【By then, all students who pass the assessment and are officially admitted will be sent via special government aircraft, or even personally escorted by designated personnel, directly to Mount Taibai in the Qinling Mountains!】

【Here, you will receive the best resources, the strongest Cultivation Technique, and personal guidance from top-tier experts!】

【Remember!】

【Taibai Academy — Only admitting Prodigies, only raising True Dragons!】

【If you lack the ambition to soar above the clouds and swallow the seas, do not enter the Immortal Gate!】

These two slogans hit every young person's heart like a heavy hammer.

Only admitting Prodigies! Only raising True Dragons!

If you lack the ambition to soar above the clouds and swallow the seas, do not enter the Immortal Gate!

What domineering arrogance! What wild pride!

But precisely because of this, it was all the more captivating, making people want to become one of them at any cost.

Because everyone knew.

As long as they could cross this threshold, as long as they could enter that cloud-shrouded academy.

Life would be completely different!

They would no longer be Mortals, but... the future... Gods of Great Xia!
