Chapter 189: Chapter 177: The Harsh Reality and the Reality-Breaking ’Composite Technique’!

Chu Feng watched Tang Youyi and others perform the technique of extracting medicinal components from medicine, he watched with great interest and gained quite a bit of knowledge, roughly understanding how the Elixirs and Potions he usually took were made.

He even personally tried his hand at making a rough and uneven Primary Qi Blood Pill to keep as a souvenir.

However, faced with Tang Youyi’s enthusiastic invitation, he simply smiled and did not respond, genuinely uninterested in logistic production.

Things that could be bought with money were not worth spending time to make, it was more enjoyable to visit the Domains several times and kill a few Demons.

Chu Feng, possessing considerable understanding of Magic, was only somewhat interested in magic-guiding technology and Magic Conductors with miraculous effects.

However, lacking the foundation in magic-guiding technology, he still could not understand the dazzling techniques in Tang Youyi’s hands.

...

The entire venue seemed to turn into a marketplace, with curious freshmen lining up to test their Talent.

Later, professors brought up a huge sand table that could change in real time, allowing the freshmen to maneuver virtual soldiers to fight against each other.

The freshmen played happily, while the professors used this time to select students they were interested in.

It wasn’t until the sun was about to set that the venue gradually calmed down.

Nie Yan glanced at Chu Feng, who immediately understood.

The highlight had arrived!

...

"Everyone, please quiet down, next Principal Ge will speak."

Chen Chao’s voice reached everyone’s ears, causing everyone to quickly quiet down.

"Cough, cough."

Principal Ge Yunsong’s robust voice, like a clear spring, flowed into everyone’s ears.

His expression serene, he slowly said, "According to the process of previous years, what we are proceeding with now will be the most brutal part, the Attribute Affinity test.

"It’s undeniable that between individuals, there will always be disparities, some are seen as geniuses, but the majority are ordinary people."

Ge Yunsong’s words caused many people to fall into silence, each clenching their fists, showing unwillingness on their faces.

Many freshmen had learned about Attribute Affinity, this indicator of qualifications, before enrolling.

Whether it was a reminder from a school teacher or rumors heard by family members.

And upon making inquiries, they became even more aggrieved.

Having qualified for Yan University, aside from the issue of Talent, it’s undeniable that everyone had made tremendous efforts—

Day after day, year after year, they practiced tedious Cultivation Techniques and strenuous Martial Techniques, only to leap through the dragon gate one fine day.

In terms of martial qualifications, they were not inferior to anyone!

In terms of perseverance and determination, they were among the best!

But at this moment, they had to face an insurmountable obstacle—

the Attribute Affinity screening!

The sweat shed simply ignored because of a small machine, the once pride of heaven now fallen to mediocrity...

Who would willingly accept this harsh reality?

But the Attribute Affinity test was necessary, it was the simplest and most efficient way for students to choose Cultivation Techniques and for tutors to select students.

Reality was this cold, decided from birth, some Cultivation Techniques you could not learn, and even if you tried forcibly, your efficiency would be several times slower than others!

The inclination of Attribute Affinity directly affects how far a Martial Artist can go!

Some people have also questioned why Attribute Affinity tests were never mentioned during high school.

The Academy Alliance has explained this before, that during the Martial Apprentice phase they do not cultivate True Force, only Qi Blood; thus, there’s no requirement for affinity inclination.

And Qi Blood is derived from nutrients absorbed from daily life, combined with energy absorbed from rigorous practice.

The speed of generating Qi Blood indirectly reflects the Martial Apprentice’s total Attribute Affinity, that is, overall aptitude.

People who trained slowly generally did not meet the necessary talents and had already been eliminated to study the liberal arts, leaving only those suitable for martial arts.

Some people darkly speculated that it was unnecessary to block knowledge and instruments related to Attribute Affinity during high school.

The Martial Arts Grand Exam was just a preliminary selection of realm and combat capability; meeting the standards was enough.

Another reason was to prevent ordinary people from giving up martial arts training to study liberal arts after learning that their Attribute Affinity was not outstanding.

After all, the battlefields against Demons required a lot of Junior Warriors to fill the ranks...

...

No matter what, faced with this natural selection, no martial artist could escape it, and they could only accept reality and strive in their training.

Hoping that they could find some opportunity in the future to advance by leaps and bounds.

Give up on themselves?

Sooner or later they would die in a battlefield conscription or get captured by the government for neglecting their duties and be thrown into an even fiercer frontline.

Give up practicing martial arts, abandon the rights of a martial artist?

That’s possible too, just return the training resources provided free by the government!

The cost of this is so great that it would drive many families to bankruptcy, plunging into the dust, making survival itself a problem.

Families unwilling to pay the price or capable of paying it either wouldn’t let their children embark on the path of martial arts from the start.

As an ordinary person without any ability to fight back, living a peaceful but significantly shorter life than martial artists.

Or they would spend even more resources to develop their children into powerful warriors.

To attain higher status, greater power, and more resources, and then to give back to the family, establishing a Martial Family.

There are no third options.

Those powerful Martial Families also made their way through this bloody path, overcoming thorns along the way.

...

Ge Yunsong continued with a tone of compassion, "The matter of testing Attribute Affinity, even I, an old guy who’s halfway into the grave, find it cruel.

"I can only place this process at the very end to avoid affecting everyone’s mood.

"But you all understand that some things inevitably need to be faced.

"Some will stand out, but many more will... blend into the crowd."

Silence.

The silence in the arena deepened.

The new students present all showed looks of apprehension, prepared to face the harsh reality.

However, what Ge Yunsong said next made everyone raise their heads in surprise.

"But this year, there might be another choice for the students."

Ge Yunsong showed a hint of a smile, addressing everyone in the hall, "Perhaps just recently, you’ve heard some rumors about the ’Composite Technique.’"

As the expectant looks of the crowd suddenly intensified, he laughed loudly, "As the principal of Yan University, I am announcing to all students:

"’Composite Technique’ is real!

"There is indeed a Martial Arts Technique now that can ignore attribute bias and fully tap into the human body’s potential for cultivation!"

With a bang, the atmosphere in the auditorium erupted like a volcanic explosion!

All the audience members stood up, staring in disbelief at the cheerful Ge Yunsong, unleashing uncontrollable shouts and screams!

Many even shed tears involuntarily, their vision blurred.

Only the voice of Ge Yunsong echoed repeatedly in their ears, growing louder and louder!

[’Composite Technique’ is real!]

["There is indeed a Martial Arts Technique now that can ignore attribute bias and fully tap into the human body’s potential for cultivation!]
