Chapter 282: Chapter 218: Middle-level Divine Artifact [Nine Provinces Dragon Vein], Upper Class Divine Artifact [Map of Mountains and Rivers]; Final Destination Decided

However, this astonishing competition was far from over! After all, of the four instructors from the top academies who stood at the very front, only two had made their promises, leaving two who had yet to speak.

As the voices of Instructor Wang Sheng from the War Academy and Instructor Wen Xinhua from the Truth Academy faded, Instructor Cao Wenxuan from Jiuzhou Academy was quick to speak. His voice was gentle, yet it carried an undeniable weight.

"Jiuzhou Academy is also willing to offer an S-Level contract to develop Zhang Yi. In addition to the highest-grade Divine Domain Cards, the academy will also grant you six months of residence in the blessed land derived from the Middle-level Divine Artifact, the Nine Provinces Dragon Vein, and a single opportunity to observe the Upper Class Divine Artifact, the Map of Mountains and Rivers!"

A ROAR!

The clamor in the Starry Hall instantly reached a fever pitch! The students, seated in their various tiers, broke into a flurry of discussion, unable to believe the exorbitant price the four instructors from the Yanhuang Federation’s top academies were willing to pay to recruit the student on the Golden Throne. Even the instructors from the key academies, standing behind those from the top-tier ones, were aghast. They couldn’t help but lower their heads and begin whispering among themselves.

The Middle-level Divine Artifact of Jiuzhou Academy, the Nine Provinces Dragon Vein—that was a treasure forged to protect the academy itself! It was created by extracting the draconic qi from the mountains and rivers of Planets of Life across dozens of Star Realms and refining it with countless True God Level resources of the Earth and Gold Attributes.

Residing in the blessed land it produced not only enhanced a student’s comprehension of related Divine Positions but also nourished the origin of their Divine Realm, subtly promoting the growth of its area. Normally, the only ways to increase the size of a Divine Realm were to break through to a higher Level as a Demigod or True God, or to use a Divine Domain Card with the corresponding effect. But by simply living in the blessed land derived from the Middle-level Divine Artifact, the Nine Provinces Dragon Vein, a Divine Realm’s area would grow on its own. While the change might not be noticeable over a day or two, it would be significant enough to perceive after a few months.

For any Divine Being wishing to expand their Divine Realm’s area, the value of six months’ residence in the blessed land derived from the Nine Provinces Dragon Vein was simply immeasurable by common resources. After all, the larger the Divine Realm, the more resources it could store. The more resources it could store, the larger the Clan it could support. And the larger the Clan, the more Faith Value it would provide. What Divine Being could possibly resist the temptation of increasing their own power!

And the opportunity to observe the Upper Class Divine Artifact, the Map of Mountains and Rivers, was even rarer—a chance that might come only once in a lifetime.

Even Zhang Yi didn’t know the true effect of the Upper Class Divine Artifact, the Map of Mountains and Rivers. All he knew was that for a High Transformationed Demigod like himself, observing the Map of Mountains and Rivers once would grant him a chance to perfectly simulate the future topographical development of his Divine Realm. Moreover, it would reveal all the hidden resources within it.

Hadn’t a Four-Stars Natural Wonder been formed in the northern part of the Zhang Yi Divine Realm precisely because of a massive infusion of Subspace Origin and the accompanying expansion of its area? After observing the Map of Mountains and Rivers, he would get a chance to perfectly simulate the topographical development of his Divine Realm. As long as he expanded his Divine Realm according to the topography simulated by the Map of Mountains and Rivers, he could create far more than just one Natural Wonder!

The effects brought by a Divine Domain Card might gradually become useless as a Divine Being’s power increased, but a Miracle born within the Divine Realm would always be useful.

Therefore, if the two promises made by Instructor Cao Wenxuan of Jiuzhou Academy could truly be fulfilled, this was no longer an ordinary recruitment attempt. It was a clear statement that they intended to groom Zhang Yi to be the next leading figure of Jiuzhou Academy.

Hearing such explosive news, the instructors from the key academies standing behind those from the top-tier ones couldn’t help but start debating as well. The main topic of their discussion was how Jiuzhou Academy dared to make such a colossal promise. Weren’t they afraid that Zhang Yi might perish prematurely?

However, this scene of fervent discussion lasted for only a dozen seconds or so before it ended, because the fourth instructor who had stood up earlier, Li Qiongtian, from one of the Yanhuang Federation’s top academies, began to speak.

With the promises from the previous three instructors from the Yanhuang Federation’s top academies becoming increasingly incredible, everyone was eager to see what kind of offer this instructor from Tianya Academy, Li Qiongtian, could possibly make.

At this very moment, a trace of relief flashed through Instructor Li Qiongtian’s eyes.

Thank goodness I acted beforehand to recruit Zhang Yi and build a good relationship with him. I used all of my connections and sent a report of his performance during the fight for the Golden Throne to Tianya Academy’s admissions office. After seeing his performance, the admissions faculty quickly changed their attitude, which is the only reason I received enough support. Otherwise, at a time like this, I truly wouldn’t have known what to say. If the offer I presented was still the previous A-Level development contract, even if I had the guts to say it, I couldn’t bear to let Zhang Yi accept it!

Li Qiongtian looked at Zhang Yi and, on behalf of Tianya Academy, made his most sincere promise.

"Zhang Yi, if you are willing to join the team Tianya Academy is forming, we can also offer you an S-Level development contract."
