I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 711 From the abstract to the concrete, the laws manifest.

Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the 44th year of the Extraordinary Era, some of the high school graduates entered the campus of Extraordinary University, some chose to join the army, and some went to vocational school.

Everyone embarked on different paths in life.

And the next generation of young people are already standing at the starting line.

On a September morning at Jiangcheng No. 7 Middle School, the morning light had just begun to bathe the training field.

The first-year high school students, dressed in brand-new training uniforms, stood in line with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

Their gazes kept drifting toward the wall of honor on the sidelines.

The name of Chen Mo, Chen Jing and others is engraved on it, along with the gold lettering "Top 16 of Jiangcheng Martial Arts Newcomer Tournament".

"I heard that senior Chen Mo barely made it into Kyoto University."

A tall, thin freshman whispered to his classmate.

"Senior Chen Jing also went to Ling Shu University."

Another girl chimed in.
"Many senior students also did well on the exam."

Everyone's eyes were filled with longing; everyone hoped that they could be like Chen Mo and the others, get into a prestigious university, and be featured on the school's wall of honor.

"The movements must be performed correctly!"

The voice of the new martial arts instructor echoed across the training ground.

This teacher was a graduate specially hired by No. 7 Middle School from Hanzhou Martial Arts and Extraordinary University, and he has the strength of the sixth level of Body Tempering.

The school's move is aimed at continuing the teaching miracle left by Xia Yuan.

The first-year high school students diligently imitated the teacher's actions, each with an exceptionally focused gaze.

Starting today, they will also begin to write a new chapter for No. 7 Middle School.

Meanwhile, in every corner of Jiangcheng, the new graduating class of high school students has begun their final sprint.

Library, training ground, classrooms.
Their hard work can be seen everywhere.

"I must get into an extraordinary university!"

A girl wrote in her diary:

"Like senior Chen Jing."

Her desk was covered with sticky notes:

[Key points for academic subjects, training plan, and historical score cutoffs]

In another ordinary family, the father is saying to his son:

“Our family’s circumstances are average, and we can’t offer you much help. But as long as you’re willing to work hard, we’ll support you even if we have to sell our possessions.”

The son silently clenched his fist.

These young faces share the same dedication and dreams as Chen Mo and his friends did back then.

Listening to the legendary stories of their seniors, they silently set goals in their hearts.

The next day, as dawn broke.

Young people are active in every corner of No. 7 Middle School.

The novelty of the first year of high school, the sense of growth in the second year, and the urgency of the third year are interwoven here to create a vivid picture.

Inside the martial arts hall, shouts of new students rose and fell.

The sound of pages turning filled the classroom.

On the training field, sweat glistened in the sunlight.

Even after the school bell rang, many students were still practicing on the training field.

The setting sun cast long shadows of them, just like those figures from six months ago.

The story of Chen Mo and others has become history.

A new story is quietly unfolding on this land soaked with sweat and dreams.
……

"I suddenly find it quite strange!"

Panlong Town.

Sitting in the courtyard, Xia Yuan picked up his teacup and couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Teaching those high school students is more interesting than teaching Hua Changfeng.

However, the talent of these students at No. 7 Middle School can only be described as average.

Even Chen Mo only got into Kyoto University in the end.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the difficulty has increased a lot now.

Twenty years ago, a level 5 martial artist could go to any school they wanted.

But that's clearly no longer possible!

Even in those ordinary extraordinary universities, most of the students are already level five martial artists.

Those below the fifth level of martial arts are either students majoring in cultural studies or those with outstanding practical combat skills.

Take Zhang Hao for example.

Generally speaking, the physical strength threshold for a level 5 martial artist is 85 points.

Zhang Hao's words were a little short.

Although he only had the physical strength of a level four martial artist, his combat score was quite high, so his final score was over 1.3 points.

However, given this trend, the cutoff score will inevitably continue to rise next year.

In a few years, I'm afraid those below the fifth level of martial arts will have little chance of getting into a super-powerful university.

A quota of 100,000 is still far too small.

Moreover, the number of human births continues to rise.

In another ten or twenty years, the number of high school students with extraordinary abilities is estimated to reach more than 20 million.

By then, the cutoff score will probably be even higher.

Forty or fifty years from now, it's even possible that becoming an extraordinary person will become the threshold for entering university.

Unfortunately, the human race can no longer expand its recruitment.

150 extraordinary universities is already the limit after Xia Yuan's calculations.

The only way to truly popularize the extraordinary is to break the seal and revive the source energy.

Otherwise it is absolutely impossible.

However, at the current rate of 30,000 to 50,000 new superhumans per year, the total number of superhumans among humans could exceed 1.5 million in fifty years.

That's roughly one ten-thousandth of the entire human race, which is pretty good!

of course.

Given the current level of resource supply, most people may only be able to reach the Innate or even Body Tempering stage in their entire lives.

If you want to go further and see a wider world, you have to fight for it.

If you don't compete, even if you become an extraordinary being, you'll only be stuck at the Body Tempering Realm for life!

Which of those extraordinary individuals who stand at the pinnacle of humanity didn't earn their place through hard work and struggle?

Those who fight will leave their mark; this is the truest reflection of our times.

at this time.

A figure walked in from outside.

Upon seeing Xia Yuan sitting in the courtyard, his voice instantly rose, becoming clearly audible from hundreds of meters away.

"teacher"

"you are back!"

More than two months ago, the teacher said she would be away for a while.

He originally thought it would be the same as before, just a day or two away, but he didn't expect to not see anyone for two months.

He even began to wonder if Xia Yuan would disappear for twenty years again, just like he had forty years ago.

Fortunately, Xia Yuan is back now!
Immediately afterwards, Wan Chen's figure also appeared in the courtyard.

"Yuanzu!"

Xia Yuan waved his hand.

"Alright, alright, go do what you're supposed to do!"

After he finished speaking, neither of them was in a hurry to leave.

"What? Something wrong?"

"Uh-huh!"

Hua Changfeng nodded and casually said:
"Minister Xie came by about two weeks ago, saying he needed your help with something!"

"Xie Xuan needs to see me?"

Xia Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

He had already said that people didn't need to ask him about human affairs.

Why did Xie Xuan come to see me this time? Did he encounter some trouble?
Source Crystal?

Or is it the Vientiane Heavenly Road?

Thinking of this, his mind stirred. His true soul instantly enveloped the entire planet Earth.

Xie Xuan didn't seem to be in a hurry at the moment.

It shouldn't be a big deal.

In that case, is there anything you need his help with?

"Okay, I get it!"

Xia Yuan nodded and didn't think about it any further.

Now that Xie Xuan has personally spoken, he will naturally go and take a look.

"Anything else?"

"Gone!"

Hua Changfeng quickly shook his head.

"Wan Chen, do you have something to say too?"

As he spoke, Xia Yuan looked at Wan Chen, who was still standing to the side.

Wan Chen stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

“Original Ancestor, my understanding of fire has reached the third stage.”

"However, I have a vague feeling that there is a precipice ahead, and the path of artistic conception seems to have come to an end!"

"You once said that beyond the realm of artistic conception lies the level of laws."

Seeing Wan Chen's hesitant expression, Xia Yuan smiled and said:

"You want to know the difference between artistic conception and laws, and how to cross this precipice, right?"

Wan Chen nodded, a hint of confusion and apprehension flashing in his eyes.

Xia Yuan picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and after a long while, slowly spoke:
"To put it simply, artistic conception is about capturing the spirit, while laws are about embodying the form!"

"Take the concept of fire as an example!"

"The fire of artistic conception is your will and your spirit, which simulates the power of fire, affects the perception of others, and even triggers changes in the environment."

"Just like you launching an attack using the properties of the Fire element!"

“You can make others feel hot, make the air dry, but that is ultimately an influence, an appropriation.”

"This is not real fire!"

"And the law is mastery!"

"At this point, what you grasp is no longer the phenomenon of fire, but the rules behind the phenomena of combustion, heat, light and heat."

"The ultimate expression of artistic conception lies in the ultimate use of fire. And the starting point of the law is to become the source of fire, and even to define what fire is."

These words are actually quite easy to understand.

For example, when an extraordinary person who has grasped the essence of fire throws a punch, the intent of his punch can make the opponent feel a burning pain that burns their internal organs, and even "ignite" their spirit, producing phantom pain.

It can also make the surrounding environment "hot", but the actual reading of the thermometer may not change.

To put it bluntly, it's all fake, even unrealistic.

The process of transforming the abstract into the concrete, and of mastering the rules and essence of the universe, is the process of turning the abstract into the concrete.

What is fire?
It is a violent oxidation reaction.

But at a deeper level lies the fundamental rule of the universe: "particles move violently, energy levels transition and release energy."

"The so-called Law of Fire is about mastering the essence of this law."

As Xia Yuan spoke, he lightly traced a line in the air with his fingertip.

A tiny glimmer of light appeared at his fingertips, initially as small as a firefly.

But the next second, that tiny glimmer of light suddenly expanded.

It's not combustion, it's not oxidation, it's the purest release of energy.

There is no fuel, no combustion aid, and even the transfer of heat is precisely controlled to the millimeter.

Wan Chen's hair stood on end; he could feel the terrifying energy contained within that ball of light.

If that flame were to fall on him, he had no doubt that he would be instantly incinerated.

"Do you understand?"

The ball of light at Xia Yuan's fingertips flickered on and off.

“The artistic conception evolves the phenomenon, while the law governs the essence.”

"What you are feeling now is not fire, but the rule of energy release itself."

"As for how many rules can be altered, that depends on how deeply one understands the rules!"

"On the path of cultivating the laws, I have only just begun. In the future, I will have to rely on you to pave the way for the human race!"

"..."

Wan Chen's facial muscles twitched involuntarily a few times.

He still remembered when he first entered the Origin Academy, the Origin Ancestor said that he was not very proficient in martial arts.

As a result, the various martial arts traces in the Wandaoshan Secret Realm even reached the level of Transformation Force.

I've heard that the Vientiane Sky Road is even more insightful.

Moreover, the Origin Ancestor once said that his strength was only at the Unity Realm level.

Even now that he has reached the Unity Realm, he still feels like an ant in front of the Origin Ancestor.

Wan Chen suddenly wanted to ask:

"You call this just getting started? Then what are we now?"

"There's a limit to showing off, isn't there?"

He opened his mouth, but in the end, he swallowed his words back.

There's no need to court death.

Looking at Wan Chen's expression, Xia Yuan naturally knew that he didn't believe it.

But everything he said was true!

His mastery of the laws was only at the first stage, and he wasn't very proficient in them, so they didn't significantly improve his strength.

If we don't continue to improve, we might be surpassed by others before long.

For example, Ji Xuan.

He has now ventured deep into Storm Valley, the core area of ​​the Sky Road.

If Ji Xuan can truly reach the end of the storm, he might actually have a chance to transform the illusory into the real, thereby manifesting the laws.

Ji Xuan is currently the only person who has reached the limit of artistic conception by speaking little, and who has truly reached the point where there is no further progress.

On the other hand, although Wan Chen's understanding of fire has reached the third stage, seemingly only one step away from perfection, this one step may be one that he may never be able to cross in his lifetime.

Not to mention the even more difficult process of transforming the virtual into the real.

Of course, even at the limit, it is extremely difficult to control the rules and transform the virtual into the real.

The difference between artistic conception and laws may seem like a small step, but in reality, they are separated by the underlying logic of the entire universe.

How easy is it to manipulate the underlying logic of the entire universe with human power?
Beside him, Hua Changfeng, who was watching Xia Yuan's evolutionary laws alongside Wan Chen, was immediately captivated and couldn't help but murmur:

"From the virtual to the real. Teacher, is this the path I will take in the future?"

Xia Yuan glanced at it.

"You? You're still a long way off! First, practice your Wind Intent to the third stage."

"..."

Hua Changfeng was speechless for a moment, but dared not refute, and simply lowered his head awkwardly.

Wan Chen took a deep breath, trying to calm the shock in his heart, and asked the most crucial question:
"Ancestor, how can we transform the abstract into the concrete?"

"I do not know either."

Xia Yuan shook his head, then continued:
"On the path to mastering the laws, others can only provide guidance and an environment."

“I can open up a cultivation secret realm like the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Path for you, evolve laws to show you the way forward, and even correct you when you go astray.”

"But in the final step, the one who pushes open the door of the law can only be your own hands."

Ji Xuan had actually asked the same question more than a decade ago.

He had also pointed out the direction for Ji Xuan back then.

However, more than a decade has passed, and Ji Xuan still has not been able to reach the level of laws.

Even Ji Xuan is like this.

It's unknown how many years it will take for Wan Chen to cross the threshold of transforming the virtual into the real.

"Alright, that's all for today!"

A moment later, Xia Yuan waved his hand.

"I'm going away for a while."

This time he was going to see Xie Xuan.

Since Xie Xuan has come to us personally, we should at least give him some face.

Fortunately, he had nothing else to do, so Xia Yuan decided to go and find out what exactly happened.

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot.
