I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 462 The First Conference on Human Development (Part Two)
In a blink of an eye, half a month passed.

As February 1st draws closer, the first Human Development Conference is attracting increasing attention.

During this period, Mills, Bai Zhengyu, and Situ Yanran successively broke through to the Transcendent Realm.

By this point, nearly half of the first cohort of students had reached the Transcendent Realm.

However, a small incident occurred when Bai Zhengyu broke through.

Because he didn't prepare enough Source Crystals, he ended up owing the academy two Source Crystals.

That is, twenty contribution points.

Of course, when he returns the money, it won't be just a mere twenty contribution points, but a hundred contribution points!

He couldn't exchange any resources even before his contribution points were replenished.

"No, I must fight for this mission to Moonstar."

Bai Zhengyu gritted his teeth.

He wouldn't have been in such a hurry to break through if he hadn't heard that a selection process was about to begin for those going to Moon Star.

If we fail to secure this mission in the end, it would be a huge loss!

After all, among all the exploration missions, only the mission to the Moon Star has the highest contribution points.

……

Two days later.

The first month of the third year of the Extraordinary Era has finally come to an end.

As countless people eagerly awaited the arrival of February 1st, the date finally arrived.

8am.

Dawn breaks.

Just at this moment.

The same image appeared on all the screens.

That was a huge conference room!
Representatives from all the major powers were present.

Holy crap, so many high-profile figures are here!

Upon seeing the figures in the video, people from various factions exclaimed in surprise.

Was this meeting just a formality?

Some people couldn't help but let their imaginations run wild.

If it were just a perfunctory meeting, would so many important figures have shown up?
Just as everyone was thinking about it.

At that moment, the sound from the screen also rang out.

Good morning, everyone!

The theme of today's meeting is the Conference on Human Development.

Many people are probably wondering why this meeting is being held.

That's because since the emergence of the extraordinary, we have achieved considerable success.

Therefore, I want to share this information with you so that everyone knows what achievements we have made.

At the same time, we will also announce our future development plans at this meeting.

Hearing these opening remarks, most people are not really moved.

to be honest.

Even if there are any achievements now, they have nothing to do with more than 99% of people.

Therefore, it is difficult for them to immerse themselves in the experience.

Only when the future plans are discussed at the end do some people become interested.

I now declare the First Human Development Conference officially open.

ten minutes later.

With the last sentence uttered, the meeting finally got down to business!
……

Today is February 1st, the third year of the Extraordinary Era.

More than two years have passed since the establishment of the Origin Academy.

Currently, there are over twenty people who have reached the Innate Realm, and nearly ten people have reached the Transcendent Realm.

[Among them are familiar names like Nangong Hong and Ji Xuan.]

[Thanks to the efforts of many extraordinary individuals at the Origin Academy, the path to extraordinary status is being gradually perfected.]

As we've mentioned before, what currently limits humanity from becoming extraordinary is not only the source energy and cultivation techniques, but also the extremely high dangers associated with cultivating extraordinary abilities.

[Although the source energy problem has not been solved, as the path to transcendence is gradually perfected, the danger of becoming a transcendent being will be greatly reduced in the future.] Hearing these words, everyone just curled their lips.

So what if the difficulty is reduced?
After all, the core issue remains energy.

Without solving the energy problem, it will be a long way off for most ordinary people to embark on the path to extraordinary achievements.

Therefore, in everyone's eyes, these words were nothing more than empty promises.

"It seems I was overthinking it; this meeting probably won't have any real substance."

Some people couldn't help but shake their heads in disappointment.

I thought this meeting would bring some shocking news, but it seems to have been nothing special.

Of course, most people had already anticipated this.

So even though I was disappointed, I didn't care too much.

But at that moment, Xie Xuan continued:

In light of the achievements we have made in our extraordinary development, after discussing with the Origin Ancestor, we have decided to accelerate our progress in this area.

Many people were taken aback by these words.

How to accelerate the pace of extraordinary development?

What do you mean?
"Does this mean that Origin Academy will continue to expand its enrollment?"

Someone's eyes lit up.

However, while the news is exciting, it hasn't caused quite a stir yet.

After all, even if enrollment is expanded, how many more people can be enrolled?
10 people, 20 people, or 30 people?
Even if we expand the recruitment to one hundred people, that number is still too few!

It still means nothing to most people.

Of course, many people were still very excited.

This is especially true for those who are close to passing the assessment.

This is indeed big news for them!

Now I will announce the specific plans for the future development of Extraordinary.

First: Educational reform.

Starting next year, all major factions will officially begin a unified education reform.

In the future, universities will be divided into two systems: the extraordinary system and the academic system.

The academic system remains unchanged, while the extraordinary system is divided into three levels: elementary, intermediate, and advanced.

The higher you level up, the more subsidies you'll receive.

As for high school, students can freely choose the major they want to study in the future.

[At the same time, the acceptance rate for the Extraordinary System will gradually increase.]

We are doing this so that more people can have the opportunity to become extraordinary!

The moment this first policy was announced, ordinary people who had been watching the spectacle were instantly abuzz with excitement.

It is no exaggeration to say that education reform is the policy that has helped the most people.

After all, most people come from ordinary families.

Given their family circumstances, no matter how talented they are, it would be absolutely impossible for them to meet the requirements to become superhumans.

However, if one can enter the primary university of the extraordinary system, there are many subsidies available.

This is enough to greatly increase the chances of ordinary people becoming extraordinary.

However, when the education system was first reformed two years ago, the admission rate for the Extraordinary Program was very low.

You need a score of almost 1180 or higher to get in.

This score is quite difficult for a 17 or 18-year-old.

Especially for those from poor families, it is practically impossible for them to have the financial resources to support their children to apply for the extraordinary system.

Now, once the acceptance rate for the extraordinary system increases, the difficulty will definitely decrease.

By then, many families might enroll their children in the Extraordinary System.

After all, who wouldn't want to fight for the chance to become a superhuman?
"Hahaha, great!"

"If the cutoff score isn't too high next year, then I'll let my son apply for the Extraordinary System!"

On the construction site, a dark-skinned middle-aged man burst into loud laughter.

This middle-aged man wasn't the only one with this thought.

At this moment, the seeds of extraordinary talent have begun to take root and sprout in the hearts of countless people.

Because they finally saw hope.
