Chapter 229: Chapter 196: Changes in the Divine Realm, Instructor Li Qiongtian’s Arrival

Elf Legion Commander Feiyana knelt on the ground, her head bowed in devotion.

Seeing this, Elf Queen An Nobel, Elf Griffin Cavalry Corps Commander William, and Dwarf Leader Copperbeard Ironhammer all followed her example.

"Thank you for your grace, My God. I will train more Governors for the great God of Nature to manage the affairs of every region in the Divine Realm!"

Elf Queen An Nobel bowed her proud head, something she would not normally do so easily.

"For My God, I will raise a cavalry corps that soars through the highest heavens!"

Elf Griffin Cavalry Corps Commander William knelt on one knee, his right hand over his chest.

"For the great God of Nature, I will forge brand-new, exceptionally fine Divine Artifacts!"

Even Dwarf Leader Copperbeard Ironhammer knelt at this moment, making a new vow!

At this moment, in the hearts of these four Clan members,

they could all see a future where the various Professions in the Divine Realm developed rapidly!

"Also, My God mentioned in the Oracle that the two branch temples that descended beside Dwarf Leader Copperbeard Ironhammer and Elf Legion Commander Feiyana contain training methods for other Professions!"

"My God instructs the two of you to find suitable people to master these Professions as soon as you discover the new training methods!"

"As you command!"

"For the great God of Nature!"

...

Seeing that Elf High Priest Shamiel had perfectly carried out his instructions in the Divine Realm, Zhang Yi withdrew his focus.

He didn’t need to worry about what would happen after Elf High Priest Shamiel relayed his orders; the other Clan members were all fiercely loyal to him.

Now, all Zhang Yi had to do was wait.

Wait for the new special-quality Five-star Divine Domain Card to exert an even greater effect within his Divine Realm!

After exiting the Divine Domain Connection Pod and washing up,

Zhang Yi started discussing the rules for earning Points in the provincial exam with the other three in their small group chat.

Based on the approach provided by Hong Tianyi, Zhang Yi made some calculations.

If he could earn 40 Points from daily training every day,

then before the provincial exam ended, he should be able to save up 1,200 Points, enough to exchange for a pretty decent Five-star Divine Domain Card!

As for the weekly arena battle assessment,

although it wasn’t like before when he could make two consecutive challenges in one arena battle,

he could still earn 500 Points each time, which meant 2,000 Points over four weeks.

Adding in the potential tasks from random missions,

it was possible for a student like Zhang Yi to gather 4,000 Points within the month before the provincial exam concluded!

And if Zhang Yi could really get 4,000 Points before the end of the provincial exam, he could even redeem the Five-star Building Card, Ancient Heaven—which cost a whopping 3,750 Points and had remained unpurchased through several iterations of the University Alliance Training Camp!

Just as Zhang Yi was getting lost in a little fantasy about his future in the provincial exam,

a sudden knock came from his dorm room door.

’It’s already 9 PM. Who would be knocking this late?’

’If it were Hong Tianyi, Wan Hua, or the others, wouldn’t it be easier to just talk in the group chat?’

The unexpected knock put Zhang Yi on alert.

But then a thought occurred to him: he was at the University Alliance Training Camp.

It was impossible for an enemy to have found their way inside the University Alliance Training Camp.

Besides, he didn’t even have any enemies!

So, Zhang Yi walked to the door.

However, he didn’t open it immediately. Instead, he looked through the peephole to see who was outside.

’Instructor Li Qiongtian!’

Zhang Yi thought in surprise as he recognized the figure outside.

’What’s the instructor doing here so late?’

Zhang Yi found it odd. He checked his personal terminal, but there were no messages from the instructor.

But since Instructor Li Qiongtian had come to find him at this hour, it had to be for a reason.

After a moment of thought, concluding that he couldn’t have done anything wrong, Zhang Yi opened the door.

Instructor Li Qiongtian wasn’t wearing the black uniform he’d had on when they met during the day. Instead, he was in casual clothes, which made him seem more approachable.

"Instructor, did you need me for something?"

Zhang Yi held the door open.

"I do have some business to discuss with you."

Zhang Yi stepped aside, clearing a path.

"Please, come in."

Instructor Li Qiongtian gave a slight nod and entered Zhang Yi’s room. His gaze swept around before landing on the personal terminal on the desk, which hadn’t been turned off.

The screen was still displaying the interface for the Points rules and the exchange for Ancient Heaven.

"Still studying the rules for Points?"

Instructor Li Qiongtian spoke, his voice a little softer than when he had addressed them in the hall.

"Yes."

Although he didn’t know why the instructor had come to see him, Zhang Yi decided to take control of the conversation.

"Instructor, was there something you needed me for?"

Zhang Yi got straight to the point.

A corner of Instructor Li Qiongtian’s mouth twitched.

He seemed to hold back the words he had been about to say.

"It’s good to have a plan."

Instructor Li Qiontian turned to face Zhang Yi and said,

"In that case, I’ll make this quick."

"I watched both of your battles this afternoon. Very impressive!"

Zhang Yi nodded, waiting quietly for him to continue.

After all, there was no way Instructor Li Qiongtian would have come looking for him late at night just because he had performed well that afternoon.

There had to be another reason!

"Your performance was strong, your fundamentals are solid, and the Heroic Clan in your Divine Realm is also very well-developed!"

"Among this entire batch of students from Donghuang Province, you’re one of the best!"

Instructor Li Qiongtian’s tone was calm, and he maintained an objective attitude.

But the "objective" content was nothing but praise for Zhang Yi.

Face to face,

even Zhang Yi couldn’t help but feel a little proud.

But Zhang Yi did his best to keep his expression neutral, knowing the main point was yet to come.

"You’ve already figured out the rules for acquiring Points during the provincial exam period."

"Since the rules for the provincial exam are set by us instructors, the rules differ from province to province."

Seeing that Zhang Yi’s expression still hadn’t changed,

Instructor Li Qiongtian continued,

"As for the provincial exam, I have no doubt about your strength. You’ll definitely stand out!"

"But think about it. A province ultimately selects 50 people. That sounds like a small number,

but what if you expand that to the entire Yanhuang Federation?"

"How many provinces are there in the entire Yanhuang Federation? That’s over 5,000 people!"

Li Qiongtian paused, looking directly into Zhang Yi’s eyes.

"I have an investment slot. If I give it to you, I can, without breaking any rules, provide you with a little help in the real selection process to enter the University Alliance Training Camp later on."

"How about it?"

"Are you interested?"

Li Qiongtian looked at Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi could feel the expectation in his gaze.

"If you choose to invest in me, what’s in it for me?"

"After the provincial exam, what do you mean by the ’real selection process to enter the University Alliance Training Camp’?"

"Why haven’t I heard anything about it?"

"And, what kind of help can you provide me?"

After hearing Instructor Li Qiongtian’s words, Zhang Yi fired back with four questions.

Upon hearing Zhang Yi’s counter-questions, Instructor Li Qiongtian felt not annoyance, but a trace of delight.

He had thrown out so many statements before, yet the student opposite him, Zhang Yi, had maintained the same unchanging attitude the entire time.

It had made Instructor Li Qiongtian think that his words hadn’t sparked the slightest bit of interest.

He even wondered if his own powers of persuasion had declined!

It seemed now that the young man had simply been taught excellent self-control.

Since he asked questions, it meant he was interested.

And if he was interested, then there was room to negotiate!

All these thoughts flashed through Instructor Li Qiongtian’s mind in an instant.

Then, he began to answer the questions Zhang Yi had posed.

However, after this exchange, Instructor Li Qiongtian had subconsciously begun to place Zhang Yi on an equal footing with himself.

It was a shift in attitude that even Instructor Li Qiongtian himself hadn’t noticed.

"Regarding your questions,

I can only answer some of them."

"Some are restricted by contract, so I can’t answer them."

"Three!"

"Out of the four questions, you have to answer at least three,"

Zhang Yi said.

Instructor Li Qiongtian hesitated.

But then he thought, ’Helping Zhang Yi is helping myself.’

’For the sake of my resources for the next hundred years, I’ll tell him everything I possibly can!’

And so, Instructor Li Qiongtian nodded and told him everything he was able to say.
