37: I am about to go to the secret realm. The teacher warns me about the difference between creatures inside and outside the secret realm.

Mystic Realm!

Han Lie was no stranger to this word. He often heard it from Cui Dazhi before. The latter's father, Uncle Cui, had to go to the Mystic Realm every ten days to half a month.

According to Cui Dazhi,

The number of Mystic Realms around the entire Fengtian City has reached fifty. Of course, as an ordinary person with no background, Han Lie was completely unaware of where these Mystic Realms were or how to enter them.

The Teacher on stage said, "There is less than a month and a half left until the National Martial Exam competition. Excluding all preparation time, it's strictly less than a month.

Time is tight and the task is heavy. In order to achieve good results in the exam,

The school has decided to lead our Experimental Class for one last training exercise, which will last for one month!"

Han Lie was curious after hearing this, "What does that mean? Only our Experimental Class is participating?"

Hearing this felt like the school didn't treat the regular classes as people. It was understandable that the previous martial arts sparring didn't include the regular classes.

After all, organizing such a large-scale martial arts sparring was too time-consuming and labor-intensive. It would be better to train at home during that time.

But regarding entering the Mystic Realm, if the regular classes were not included, it would be too unreasonable. Based on what everyone had explained, Han Lie already knew.

The National Martial Exam,

Was not the sparring method he had imagined. Firstly, that kind of competition method was not easy to design and could not guarantee fairness.

Secondly, this was a screening method for all of humanity. Simple competition could not determine everyone's respective ranking.

Thirdly, the enemies of Humans are not just Humans, so the strength demonstrated through mutual sparring sometimes cannot prove anything.

Therefore, the method of the Martial Exam.

Is simple and brutal.

It is to throw all the students in a region into the same Mystic Realm, obtain points by fighting with creatures from other worlds, and thus determine a ranking.

What is a Mystic Realm?

It is actually an intermediate area for communication, exchange, and war between Blue Star and other star systems.

So Han Lie felt that if the students of the Experimental Class went to the examination venue to familiarize themselves in advance, it would be too unfair to the regular classes.

"......What do you think a Mystic Realm is?" Cui Dazhi grinned, "To put it nicely, a Mystic Realm is a rich, unknown alien star field. To put it not so nicely, it's a battlefield between us and creatures from other worlds, in other words, a place where you could lose your head at any time.

What strength do those regular classes have? We Humans are inherently weak in the early stages of cultivation. Letting them go to that kind of place is just seeking death?

That's why they call you the Living King of Hell!"

"........" Han Lie really didn't know, "Then... in the Mystic Realm, what level of strength do other creatures generally equivalent to in our Humans?"

"Hmm..." Cui Dazhi thought for a moment, "Actually, their strength isn't as exaggerated as I said, there are weak ones too, but you know this is a battlefield, it's not weak against weak, strong against strong. In the Mystic Realms we enter, the upper limit of strength for creatures that can enter is basically controlled around Martial Warrior Rank 3. Any stronger and they will be repelled by the Mystic Realm's will!"

"Only Rank 3?" Han Lie was noncommittal.

"......" Cui Dazhi was helpless, "You think everyone is like you, not yet 18, but with three body tempering sessions and physical strength that's off the charts.

And you absolutely must not underestimate alien creatures. Although the energy in their bodies is only barely at Rank 3, combined with their racial talents and other mysterious and unpredictable things.

Some individuals' combat power can even reach Rank 4 or Rank 5. There, we Celestial Pride are actually the prey of some individuals!"

"? That's outrageous!"

Han Lie was indeed startled, "Then why go to the Mystic Realm? Wouldn't it be better to just lay low? Our strength is weak in the early stages of cultivation, but it will be made up for in the middle and later stages."

"Ha... ha...."

Cui Dazhi thought about it and agreed, scratching his head, unable to understand until Bai He Wan on the side suddenly spoke up.

"Where are there so many cultivation resources!"

"!!!"

Both of them instantly understood.

Yes, the reproduction rate of Humans is simply too terrifying, and there are only so many interstellar resources. So even in the weak initial stage, you must fight and snatch, otherwise are you waiting for pie to fall from the sky?

The entire world,

Is actually a huge Gu breeding ground.

"Those regular classes' strength is not enough yet, entering rashly has a very high chance of death, so they basically just wander around the periphery of the Mystic Realm!" Cui Dazhi continued.

"The periphery of the Mystic Realm is actually the place where the Mystic Realm comes into contact with our Blue Star. It is actually our territory. The creatures inside are actually the cats and dogs from before that were infected by the Mystic Realm's energy and mutated, forming a special kind of creature. And these students from the regular classes specifically deal with these trash that can't make it onto the stage!"

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Han Lie nodded repeatedly.

It was truly eye-opening.

He didn't ask too many deep questions, because it seemed in Cui Dazhi's eyes, those so-called mutated creatures were just small fry by the roadside, he was even too lazy to mention them.

Also,

A Martial Overlord who was recruited early would definitely look down on the creatures used by these regular class students to familiarize themselves with the Mystic Realm.

Immediately after,

The Teacher on stage gave a series of instructions,

"The students in our Experimental Class are the top students in our school even at their weakest, but I still need to remind you, never think you are extraordinary. Once you step into the Mystic Realm, you, him, or even someone like Han Lie, have a high possibility of becoming someone else's food!"

Han Lie was inexplicably called out, knowing that the Teacher was telling him not to be too arrogant. No, in your eyes, am I a very arrogant person?

Then he heard the Teacher say:

"A battlefield environment is not the same as martial arts sparring. Life-and-death battles are not just a comparison of numbers. I have seen too many examples of With Weakness Wins Strength, so you must be careful and not underestimate any alien creature, even if it looks quite weak and poses no threat!"

"Secondly, you must...."

"Also...."

The entire class that followed was Old Ge repeatedly giving instructions, reminding everyone of precautions, specifically pointing out several terrifying creatures, emphasizing that you must escape if you encounter them, and so on...

In fact, everyone realized that these were all things they had learned in the past, it was just that today they were finally going to be tested.

Han Lie had thought that the level of learning in these cultural classes would be presented through scores on exams, but he didn't expect it to be through life-and-death combat. If you didn't remember or forgot, you might die.

He listened attentively,

Behaving very obediently.

At the same time, he felt a little anticipation in his heart. You say there are so many bugs just from eating these snacks, if he really encountered alien creatures, wouldn't there be even more erroneous data?!

Is he going to get rich,

Or are his good days coming to an end?
