121: The threat of mutant beasts

"Let's go. While we have a day, let's familiarize ourselves with the various areas. I've already notified Xing Tian and the other two; they'll be here shortly."

Jin Yan added immediately.

Ten minutes later, Xing Tian, Shangguan Chengfeng, and Su Li arrived. The group then followed to get acquainted with the various areas of the training camp in advance.

The training camp even had a dedicated cafeteria. After collecting everyone's information today, they immediately began preparing various delicacies tailored to them.

Many of the ingredients used were paired with Mutated Beasts of the same element as the students. Long-term consumption could enhance one's divinity and continuously strengthen their Physique.

Every meal here would cost hundreds of thousands or even millions outside.

The free supply of ingredients alone was an astronomical expense.

What surprised Zhou Xing and the others even more was that even the chefs were Law Realm Awakened Ones who had awakened the "god of cooking." This type of Awakened One was very rare, possessing the ability and skills to cook various delicacies upon Awakening.

The food they produced mostly had special effects, making them a very popular type of auxiliary Awakened One on Blue Star.

After a full day of touring, Zhou Xing and the others truly had their eyes opened.

The next day, a detailed training schedule was delivered to every student on time.

Early in the morning, the students gathered at an open-air training base in the camp.

Today, the person responsible for teaching them was Yue Hua, a powerful Middle-Stage Demigod mentor.

"Not bad. Everyone is very punctual, which pleases me. You are now students, and as students, you should understand the importance of time management.

For today's first class, we won't do anything else. Everyone will introduce themselves in order so that you can remember each other.

Remember, you are competitors in Cultivation here, but after you leave the training camp in the future, you will be close comrades-in-arms.

Three years of training will become a very precious memory for your future.

Now, let's start the introductions... beginning with Zhou Xing."

Today, Yue Hua had rarely removed her veil, revealing an absolute beauty. At over forty years old, she looked no different from someone in her twenties.

Of course, this was also a benefit of being an Awakened One.

After becoming an Awakened One, besides the increase in strength, one's lifespan is also greatly extended.

Even an ordinary Awakened One in the Essence Circulation Realm can live for over a hundred years.

According to the calculations of many factions on Blue Star, for every major Realm one advances, their lifespan doubles.

And a Demigod, theoretically, has a lifespan of at least several thousand years.

Naturally, they can maintain their youthful appearance according to their needs.

Hearing Yue Hua speak, Zhou Xing stood up and said:

"Hello everyone, I am Zhou Xing, from Star City, a mid-sized city in the Xia Country. I am a triple-element compatible Awakened One of the god of frost, god of flame, and god of healing. My strength is at the Control Mid-Stage."

"Hello everyone, I am Xing Tian, from Dawn City in the Xia Country. I am a dual-element Fusion Awakened One of the god of thunder and god of destruction, with strength at the Late Control Stage. We will be classmates from now on, so please take care of me."

..."I am Janet, from Tundra City. I am a dual-element Fusion Awakened One of the god of frost and god of phantom, with strength at the Late Control Stage."

With Janet's final words, the introductions concluded, and everyone basically had a fundamental understanding of one another.

"Very well. Next, I will briefly explain the current overall situation of Blue Star, the typical powerhouses of various factions, and some special Geniuses we know of through The Watchers' investigations.

Many of you usually only know information through research and have mostly never left the borders of your respective countries.

I hope that through my introduction, you can remember these factions and individuals. This information will be of significant help when you go out on missions in the future."

Nodding with satisfaction, Yue Hua began to introduce everything to them bit by bit.

Unknowingly, two hours passed. Through Yue Hua's introduction, Zhou Xing and the others gained a much deeper understanding of the various factions on Blue Star compared to before.

Currently, the strongest in the world remains Divine Gene. They have twenty-six known Demigod Awakened Ones alone.

In contrast, The Watchers only have fifteen on the surface—a significant gap.

Next is The Officials of the Xia Country, with nine in the Demigod Realm. The strongest among them is the Xia Country's God of War, Guo Dehuai.

However, according to The Watchers' latest intelligence, the Xia Country has successfully built the powerful kunlun system based on the mysterious technology they acquired.

The power of this integrated offensive and defensive System is enough to rival even a Peak Demigod.

Some time ago, Guo Dehuai even personally attacked Godfall City, forcing Divine Gene to completely withdraw from the Xia Country.

This latest intel also left many students quite surprised and shocked.

After the Xia Country comes the Furnace Fighting Arena—

This is a large faction formed by many independent Divine-Grade powerhouses. There are five Demigod-level beings, all of whom have reached the Middle-Stage Demigod level, and the leader of the Furnace even possesses Late-Stage Demigod power.

Because they previously maintained a general Alliance with Divine Gene, the Furnace Fighting Arena could be found in every city controlled by Divine Gene within the Xia Country.

This time, due to Divine Gene's withdrawal, they were also completely expelled from the country by the Xia Country.

However, they still control many urban resources around the world.

The rest are some small Alliance factions with one or two Demigods in charge, which are not a threat.

This is the current distribution of factions on Blue Star.

But in reality, the most powerful entities on Blue Star are the Mutated Beasts.

Basically, 70% of Blue Star is controlled by Mutated Beasts, with the oceans being almost entirely under their rule.

Various factions even suspect that a Beast Emperor-level existence, no less powerful than a human Demigod, has already appeared among the Mutated Beasts.

After all, even before the Blue Star mutation, the deep sea was considered a forbidden zone for humanity.

Exploration of the ocean covered less than 5%.

Over the past twenty years, many coastal cities have been directly destroyed by marine Mutated Beast nests.

On the matter of dealing with Mutated Beasts, even Divine Gene has reached a consensus with other factions.

After all, everyone clearly understands the principle that "when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact."

Once the Mutated Beasts unite, all of humanity on Blue Star will fall into catastrophe.

It can be said that Mutated Beasts are currently the greatest threat to humanity on Blue Star!
