203: Chapter 203: To test their will, toil their muscles and bones, starve their bodies, and empty their spirits.

Lin Yuan returned to reality.

Everything was ready. He closed his eyes, and his Mental Energy sank deep into his Sea of Consciousness.

The Realm barrier that had been suppressed for a long time completely opened up at this moment.

The dark gold Divine Power, which had formed a closed loop in his body, instantly broke free from the shackles of its internal circulation.

The divine fire burned in the center of the Sea of Consciousness, devouring this qualitatively transformed power.

The sixth divine ring rapidly condensed and solidified on the outer periphery of the flame.

Demigod Sixth Revolution came naturally.

Lin Yuan opened his eyes.

An invisible force field centered on him spread out to the entire villa.

The core feature of the Demigod Sixth Revolution was the Law Domain.

For ordinary demigods, a Domain was merely a crude projection of their own Law in the physical world of reality.

It was used to suppress the circulation of the enemy's Divine Power or to slightly amplify one's own attributes.

But Lin Yuan's Domain was completely different.

He raised his hand, and the surrounding space took on an intertwined gray-and-white hue.

[End and Origin].

Within this Domain with a radius of a hundred meters, the boundary between life and death was forcibly blurred.

Lin Yuan could clearly perceive the decay and rebirth of every trace of energy within the Domain.

Under the scouring of the gray-and-white light, the free elements in the air constantly collapsed and disintegrated, only to be reorganized into purer energy particles in the next second.

With a thought, he mobilized the deep characteristics of the Domain.

If Wasteland dependents were summoned within this Domain, they would receive a dual blessing.

As long as the dependents stepped into this gray-and-white force field, their vitality would be directly locked by the Domain.

Once the dependents suffered fatal wounds in battle, the [End] Law would drain their remaining vitality and erupt it into ultimate destructive power.

Immediately afterward, the [Origin] Law would use this destructive power as a guide to forcibly reshape their bodies.

Death was recovery.

Destruction was rebirth.

As long as Lin Yuan's Divine Power was not exhausted and the Domain remained unbroken,

his dependents would be an untiring army of monsters that grew stronger the more they died.

Every fatal blow from the enemy would become nourishment for the Wasteland dependents' even stronger eruptions next time.

Lin Yuan closed his five fingers, and the gray-and-white force field gradually retracted and disappeared without a trace.

He stood up and felt his skyrocketing power.

The Foundation of the sixth revolution was already enough for him to cope with the upcoming changes for a long time.

...

Time passed.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and the national college entrance examination came to an end.

During this month, Lin Yuan cut off almost all useless social interactions, though he hadn't had many to begin with.

Aside from daily management of his Divine Domain, he spent all his remaining time immersed in Starry Sky University's special study grounds.

Foundation needed knowledge to support it.

Starry Sky University's "Microscopic Law Small World" was an independent folded space that required credits to enter.

Lin Yuan stood within this pure white space.

Innumerable fine Law threads floated before him.

The course he was studying today was "High-Dimensional Space Folding and Domain Nesting".

The instructor of this course was a Divine Thought projection left behind by a True God.

"The essence of a Domain is a rehearsal before the descent of the Divine Kingdom." The voice of the Divine Thought projection echoed within the space, devoid of a trace of emotional coloring.

"Unlimited expansion will only lead to the dilution of Law density. True experts know how to compress the vast starry sky into a square inch."

Lin Yuan concentrated completely, controlling his own gray-and-white Domain.

Following the guidance of the projection, he compressed the Domain that had originally expanded to a hundred meters inward bit by bit.

Fifty meters, thirty meters, ten meters.

The smaller the range of the Domain, the more terrifying the Law density inside became.

When the Domain was compressed until it clung to his body surface, fine black cracks even appeared in the space around Lin Yuan.

This course cost him a full twenty thousand credits.

The effect was extremely significant.

He could now perfectly nest the Domain onto any of his divine arts, or even attach it to his fist tips.

With a single punch, it not only carried the ultimate power of his Physical Body, but also carried the effects of the entire Domain.

The next day, Lin Yuan moved on to the "Exotic Realm Simulation Classroom".

To study "Soul Anchor Fixation Under Extreme Environments".

This course targeted how demigods could resist spiritual pollution from higher-tier existences when fighting in exotic Realms.

The environment inside the classroom changed every day.

Sometimes it was a flesh mire of writhing whispers, and sometimes it was a nihilistic abyss that deprived one of the five senses.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in the center of the classroom, letting various types of pollution impact his Sea of Consciousness.

Utilizing the characteristics of [End and Origin], he constructed an endless Soul anchor deep within his Sea of Consciousness.

Any pollution that attempted to invade his sanity would be annihilated by the End Law upon touching the anchor.

Subsequently, the Origin Law transformed into pure Mental Energy to nourish himself.

This course greatly enhanced his control over the divine art "Wither and Flourish: Life and Death Reversal".

His original sanity limit of half an hour was forcibly extended by him to one hour.

In the third week, he entered the "Dependent Projection Laboratory".

Majoring in "High-Dimensional Dependent Projection Technology".

This knowledge seemed obscure, but it actually played right into Lin Yuan's hands.

Traditional dependent summoning required opening the Divine Domain channel, which was time-consuming and easily interrupted by enemies.

This was also why many deities were often beheaded before they had time to summon a large army when encountering a surprise attack.

What this technology taught was how to use the characteristics of the sixth-revolution Domain to instantly pull the dependents within the Divine Domain into reality in the form of "Law Projections".

Lin Yuan spent thirty thousand credits and deduced it tens of thousands of times in the laboratory.

He successfully bound the coordinates of the Wasteland Divine Domain with his own Domain.

Now, as long as he locked onto a target within the Domain,

the Tyrant Demons or Calamity Fire Spirits in the Wasteland could directly cross the spatial barrier and descend beside him in their peak state.

Dispensing with the tedious steps of opening the Divine Domain channel, he truly achieved the feat of summoning troops the moment a thought arose.

A month of high-intensity study caused Lin Yuan's credits to be consumed like flowing water.

What was exchanged for it was his absolute control over the Demigod Sixth Revolution Realm.

A vast amount of theoretical knowledge filled the blind spots outside his practical combat experience, and his Foundation had solidified to an outrageous degree.

Starry Sky University ushered in the true opening season.

The main campus was bustling with noise and excitement, as countless Prodigies who had fought their way through the national college entrance examination stepped into this supreme institution of higher learning with arrogance and anticipation.

Luxurious starships escorting descendants of various Families into school flashed across the sky from time to time.

As the monitor of High-Risk Class 3, Lin Yuan had just finished attending the freshman welcome preparation meeting organized by the department.

He walked on the tree-lined avenue, tossing a silver metal Rubik's cube in his hand.

This was the military training assessment content issued by the school.

As long as it was crushed, all the contents of this freshman military training could be read.

Just as Lin Yuan was pondering his next arrangements, a figure walked out from the corner ahead.

Su Yueying.

She was wearing a capable black combat uniform, with her long hair tied up high, exuding a touch of heroic spirit.

The two ran into each other on the path.

Su Yueying stopped in her tracks, her gaze falling on the silver Rubik's cube in Lin Yuan's hand.

"Meeting over?" Su Yueying took the initiative to speak, her tone calm.

"Yeah," Lin Yuan replied casually.

Su Yueying looked Lin Yuan up and down.

She could feel that, having not seen him for just a month, the Aura on Lin Yuan had become even more profound.

Standing there, the surrounding light seemed to undergo subtle distortions, and his entire person exuded an Aura of controlling everything.

She reined in her thoughts and went straight to the point: "The military training content for our normal classes has already been announced."

"We're going to the fringe galaxies for a half-month period of resource collection and alien beast eradication."

"Although there are risks, overall it's still within a controllable range."

Su Yueying paused, a trace of curiosity flashing in her eyes:

"What about your High-Risk Class 3? Every class's military training content is different. As a monster concentration camp for early admissions, the task the school arranged for you guys definitely isn't simple, right?"

"I heard that group of newly admitted freshmen outside are each more arrogant than the last, boasting that they want to give you early-admission 'seniors' a taste of their power."

Lin Yuan gripped the silver Rubik's cube in his hand, his fingertips exerting a slight force.

A stream of light flashed across the surface of the Rubik's cube.

The information within it surged into Lin Yuan's mind.

Small World coordinates, environmental parameters, freshman deployment rules, instructor hunting permissions.

All the details unfolded in Lin Yuan's mind.

After quickly browsing through this information, Lin Yuan's expression became a bit odd.

He raised his head, meeting Su Yueying's probing gaze, and said in a calm tone: "It's alright, not very difficult."

Looking at Lin Yuan's calm face, Su Yueying knew that the other party had no intention of revealing the truth.

Based on her understanding of Lin Yuan, the more understated this person acted, the more outrageous the matter actually was.

"Fine then." Su Yueying did not continue to press. She nodded, stepped aside to make way, and said, "Have fun."

The two brushed past each other.

Lin Yuan walked straight back to High-Risk Class 3's exclusive classroom.

The large lecture hall was empty, with only Bai Ye sitting alone at a desk in the front row.

Bai Ye's current state was miserable. His eye sockets were sunken, and his dark circles were terrifyingly heavy.

The Aura on his body was chaotic, and a faint dark gold bony luster circulated beneath his skin.

During this past month, Bai Ye had been stimulated by Vice Monitor Chu Xiaoxiao and that group of people, falling into a frenzy of bitter cultivation.

He had poured almost all his resources into his Divine Domain, evolving his undead legion day and night.

Hearing footsteps, Bai Ye raised his head.

Seeing Lin Yuan walk in, Bai Ye's eyes lit up instantly.

He leaped down from the desk and rushed in front of Lin Yuan in a few steps.

"Monitor! You're finally back!"

"Is the meeting over? Has the military training content been decided?"

Bai Ye rubbed his hands together, his eyes full of desire.

"I've been in bitter cultivation for a month! A whole month! Even the bone marrow of my undead army has been squeezed dry by me. I urgently need an outlet to vent right now."

Bai Ye circled around Lin Yuan, talking endlessly.

"Quickly tell me, what project did the school arrange for that group of freshmen?"

"Is it an arena battle, or plane offense and defense?"

"I can't wait... Since they're all peers, I originally didn't plan on a dimensional reduction strike, just to relax properly."

Lin Yuan looked at Bai Ye's impatient appearance.

He couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense.

He raised his right hand, and a ball of white light condensed at his fingertips.

Slap.

Lin Yuan slapped Bai Ye right on the forehead.

Bai Ye shook all over, his eyes tightly closed.

A few seconds later.

Bai Ye opened his eyes.

His breathing became rapid, and the expression on his face quickly shifted from shock and astonishment to excitement.

"Hahaha!"

Bai Ye looked up to the sky and laughed out loud on the spot: "Wonderful! This is simply too wonderful!"

Bai Ye was so excited that he danced with joy.

He had completely digested the contents of the military training.

The school had prepared an independent Small World for the dozens of freshmen about to join High-Risk Class 3.

The environment of that Small World was harsh.

The gravity was fifty times that of the outside world, the air was filled with inert gases that could block the recovery of Divine Power, and the surface constantly erupted with poisonous fire capable of melting demigod divine bodies.

The freshmen would be directly dropped into this Small World.

Not only did they have to survive in this desperate situation for half a month,

but they also had to face the early-admission instructors like Lin Yuan and Bai Ye.

The instructors' permission was only one: unrestricted hunting.

They did not need to abide by any rules;

they could hide in the dark to launch sneak attacks, crush them head-on, or set traps.

The instructors even possessed control over part of the Small World's environment to create disasters for the freshmen.

Their task was to trample upon this group of arrogant freshmen in that harshly-conditioned Small World.

Devastate their minds and torture their bodies and Souls.

Force out all their trump cards until they voluntarily crushed the elimination jade talismans.

Was this even military training? This was clearly a one-sided slaughter game.

"Awesome! Too awesome!" Bai Ye's face was flushed, and he rubbed his hands in excitement.

"This group of freshmen who just came out of the greenhouse are probably still dreaming sweet dreams of making a name for themselves at Starry Sky University."

"Tomorrow, I'll teach them what a beating from society is all about!"

Bai Ye pulled out a white bone long-whip from his storage space, snapping it sharply in the air.

"I've even prepared the props to torture them."

"I'm going to hang them over the poisonous volcanic craters and let them experience what it means to be unable to live and unable to die."

Looking at Bai Ye's smug expression, Lin Yuan couldn't help reminding him: "You'd better restrain yourself a bit and not flaunt it everywhere."

He walked over to his seat and sat down.

"This thing is classified. Tomorrow, this group of freshmen will officially report and directly enter the deployment procedure."

"You'd better make preparations in advance so you don't capsize in front of the freshmen when the time comes."

Bai Ye immediately put away his exaggerated smile and straightened his body.

"Rest assured, Monitor!"

Bai Ye patted his chest, making a solemn guarantee.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission! I will definitely serve them comfortably so that for the rest of their lives, their legs turn to jelly whenever they hear the two words 'instructor'!"

Bai Ye leaned forward, lowering his voice, his tone full of gratitude.

"Thank you, Monitor, for arranging this plum assignment for me. I'll strike wherever you point, and the undead army under my command is already starved and impatient."

The corners of Lin Yuan's mouth twitched slightly.

He looked at the Battle Intent burning in the depths of Bai Ye's eyes.

Sure enough, arranging this guy in the position of the front-line practical combat chief examiner was the right decision.

With Bai Ye's current perverted psychology, that group of freshmen tomorrow probably won't even know how they died.
