Chapter 13

The Star War Academy is the top institution in the universe, consisting of ten colleges. Apart from the Ninth College, which is located in the outer universe, the other nine are in the inner universe. However, this time, the Tenth College will appear in the Canglan territory, which includes the Da Yu Empire.

Lu Yin closed the screen, his eyes flickering. This piece of information was too valuable. The Star War Academy has a fatal attraction for countless young people in the universe. It was originally irrelevant to him, as it was too far away. But now, the Tenth College of the Star War Academy is entering the Canglan territory at this critical moment, and it's impossible not to have any thoughts.

To enter the Tenth College of the Star War Academy, one must not only have outstanding talent and powerful combat strength but also have sufficient experience.

There is an opportunity for experience right in front of him: the Earth Evolution Trial.

No wonder so many people have come for the trial this time. Astar must have also come because of this news.

Lu Yin felt uneasy. First, he didn't know what Astar's mission was. Second, if no student completes the mission within three months, a second batch of trial students will arrive.

At this critical moment when the Tenth College of the Star War Academy is about to appear, many people want to gain experience and enhance their credentials, including those from powerful clans and prestigious families. The Earth Evolution Trial is undoubtedly very attractive. The arrival of the second batch of trial students might bring unprecedented cruelty to Earth.

Lu Yin became anxious. Even the first batch of trial students are at least at the Exploration Realm. The second batch might include even stronger individuals, and his own strength might not be enough to protect himself.

Thinking about this, Lu Yin felt restless. He must reach the Exploration Realm within three months; otherwise, he would be reduced to an ant.

After a night, the army set off again the next day, heading north.

Lu Yin became even more silent. He didn't stay inside the armored vehicle but lay on the roof.

In Hubei, Wucheng, the center of Huaxia, over ten million survivors have gathered. Even so, countless people continue to arrive, all because one of the Seven Saints, the Light Saint Liu Shaoge, is here.

When the apocalypse arrived, a batch of strange minerals appeared around Wucheng, containing light. These minerals can emit light when cracked.

Liu Shaoge used these minerals as a foundation, combined with his own combat skills, to protect the millions of survivors in Wucheng, thus being revered as the Light Saint.

Light pillars rose from around Wucheng, enveloping the entire city. Because of this, Wucheng is also known as the City of Light or the City of No Night.

In the center of Wucheng, a piece of land is lifted by light pillars, floating in the sky. This is where the Light Saint resides, and many people call it the Heavenly Capital.

Below the Heavenly Capital is the Light Camp, where ten thousand evolved beings protect the Light Saint's Heavenly Capital, gradually expanding outward.

There are no grand palaces in the Heavenly Capital, only beautiful gardens, with no cover.

Anyone standing in the Heavenly Capital can look up at the stars.

At this moment, in the garden of the Heavenly Capital, a handsome young man with a graceful demeanor stands at the edge, gazing into the distance. He raises a wine glass and takes a light sip, a strange smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He is the Light Saint Liu Shaoge.

Not far from Liu Shaoge, there is another young man. Though not as handsome as Liu Shaoge, his gaze is incredibly proud, looking at Liu Shaoge as if he were an ant.

"Everything here is your resource, especially those light crystals, which can give you a ten-year lead over others. You are wasting them," the young man behind Liu Shaoge said discontentedly.

Liu Shaoge turned his head, smiling at the young man. "Don't say that, Pui. Everything here is shared by all of us, not just me."

The man called Pui's expression eased slightly. "Remove these light pillars. You are wasting resources."

Liu Shaoge nodded. "Alright, I'll listen to you. By the way, what did you mean by the area division?"

Pui said indifferently, "The trial has its own unwritten rules. Once we control a certain area, we can mark it as blue on the network. Generally, no one will attack a blue area during the early stages of the trial, unless they are enemies."

"So, Wucheng has already been marked as a blue area?" Liu Shaoge asked.

Pui nodded. "Of course. Otherwise, do you think I was the only one approaching here these past few days? The trial is very brutal. Generally, no one engages in life-and-death battles during the early stages. Of course, we also have to consider the background of each student. Fortunately, my background is not weak, so no one will disturb us after the area is marked."

Liu Shaoge smiled and nodded. "I see."

"Alright, tell me, how is the investigation going?" Pui asked impatiently, then glanced at the light pillars, a hint of pain flashing in his eyes. "Turn off those light pillars. They are a waste."

Liu Shaoge smiled and poured wine for Pui. "I have some leads on what you asked me to investigate."

Pui's eyes lit up. "Really? Tell me."

Liu Shaoge handed the wine glass to Pui. "Look at this glass of wine."

Pui was puzzled and looked at it, but saw nothing special, only the ripples in the wine, one after another, endless...

Liu Shaoge smiled and waited for a moment before speaking calmly. "Give me your personal terminal."

Pui's eyes were blank as he took off his personal terminal and handed it to Liu Shaoge.

After a short while, Liu Shaoge closed the personal terminal, rubbed his head, and said, "Trouble. The cosmic network has been shut down. This means they have discovered that I am controlling him. Never mind." He then put on his personal terminal, a smile on his lips, and looked up at the sky with a wise gaze.

Two days later, the Xingying army approached the front line. If not for the repair of communication lines along the way, they would have arrived much earlier.

These two days, Lu Yin spent most of the night staring at the moon, making Luo Yun think he had gone crazy.

The convoy suddenly stopped. Xu San said to Lu Yin, "Boss, something's wrong. We haven't seen any survivors since yesterday, and there should be soldiers monitoring the front line. We've been walking for almost a day and haven't seen anyone."

Lu Yin stood up and looked into the distance. "The army will stop to rest."

Avoiding the others, Lu Yin opened his personal terminal and calculated the combat strength within a radius of one mile, two miles, up to ten miles. He filtered out combat strength below the Exploration Realm and finally detected Exploration Realm combat strength 37 kilometers away, with 1,800 units of combat strength. This was the detected combat strength.

Lu Yin's expression turned serious. He took out a map. 37 kilometers away was an abandoned county town, which was less than 20 kilometers from the front line, right between the front line and their convoy.

Lu Yin ordered the army to camp in place and went north himself to determine whether the Exploration Realm combat strength was from a mutated beast or a human.

After advancing less than ten kilometers, Lu Yin knew he didn't need to go further. Ahead, an army of evolved beings was passing by. The presence of an army indicated that the abandoned county town ahead was a gathering place, meaning that the detected Exploration Realm strength was one of the students who had arrived on Earth.

Lu Yin pondered for a moment and reinstalled the location device on Astar's personal terminal.

At the moment the location device was restored, a woman wearing white armor with long hair to her waist, who was about ten kilometers away from Lu Yin, changed her expression and looked at her personal terminal, then coldly hummed and flew south.

A short while later, a white figure appeared in the sky, hovering high and staring coldly at Lu Yin below. "Student, this area has already been marked as blue. Please leave."

Lu Yin looked at the woman, his eyes brightening. She was quite attractive. "Hello, I'm Yata, from the First Military Academy of the Da Yu Empire."

"I'm not interested. Leave immediately," the woman said coldly, her energy rippling and pressing down.

Lu Yin hurriedly said, "Student, don't be in a hurry. I'm injured and not very strong, so I don't pose a threat to you. Moreover, I can give you resources, a lot of resources."

The woman's gaze was cold. "A mere Aspiration Realm, daring to join the planetary evolution trial. How did you get in?"

"My grandfather is the principal," Lu Yin said directly, his tone proud.

The woman was disgusted. "Get lost."

Lu Yin immediately took out several fire crystals from his spatial ring and threw them to the woman. "Help me survive the trial smoothly, and I'll give you a basket of these crystals when we get out."

The woman caught them in surprise, feeling the warm touch of the fire crystals, and landed. "Where did you get them?"

Lu Yin acted proud. "Of course, my grandfather gave them to me. My grandfather is a powerful being who roams the stars, and he has plenty of these."

The woman's eyes narrowed, clenched her fist, and emitted a hint of killing intent.

Lu Yin stepped back cautiously, staring at the woman. "Don't be rash. Although no one can interfere with the trial, who lives and dies, and who kills whom, can still be traced. You don't want to be hunted by my grandfather, do you?"

The woman thought for a moment, released her hand, and said coldly, "I can help you survive on this planet, but the trial results have nothing to do with you."

Lu Yin breathed a sigh of relief. "It doesn't matter. No matter what, my grandfather can get me into the Tenth College of the Star War Academy. You can have all the results."
