Of course, just a faint trace.

In this era, as a weak race like human beings, it's already difficult to ask for too much.

"You can use the mark to select and complete tasks, and then earn rewards." High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu slowly stood up and said, "Unless you encounter someone else with the mark, you're not allowed to reveal any information about the organization. You should know—even now, humans are so weak that even though we have our own Immortal Realm Cultivation Technique, we still don't dare to announce it publicly."

"I understand." Nan Hao's expression was solemn.

The next moment, High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu's figure vanished from where he stood.

However, even after returning to his own residence, he continued to use the authority of the mark contract to observe Nan Hao's situation.

After all, this was the first step he had taken on the road to saving his world's Human Civilization.

To say he wasn't nervous—impossible.

If Nan Hao wasn't as he seemed, as Shen Yu perceived him, this contract and this step would not yield the desired results, and he'd have to quickly erase the impact and consider other means.

At this moment, Nan Hao first sat upright for a while, constantly checking the Martial Arts legacy in his mind, then continually validating it against his own body, apparently ensuring that this Cultivation Technique had no problems.

But some sensations can't be faked.

That sense of structural compatibility, matching bloodline.

Moreover, since he originally practiced the Immortal Realm Cultivation Technique of the Six-armed Race, he could distinctly feel the linkage between these two Cultivation Techniques.

Keep in mind, compared to the myriad races of the Myriad Realms, the structural differences between the Six-armed Race and humans are not trivial.

If one had to adapt a Cultivation Technique from another race to perfectly suit the human civilization, the Six-armed Race shouldn't be the choice.

The difficulty would be much greater.

Especially at the final Immortal Realm.

The biggest difficulty in adapting a Cultivation Technique lies in the massive amount of experimentation, and having a broad, elevated perspective.

Human Civilization had no Immortal Realm powerhouse—that was the key reason they couldn't create their own Cultivation Technique.

Once Nan Hao confirmed the correctness of the Cultivation Technique, he suppressed the excitement and fervor in his heart, and immersed his consciousness into the mark on the back of his hand.

This mark, in truth, isn't on the back of his hand.

The pattern on the hand could be withdrawn; it was just a channel for external communication.

The true mark sits deep within his Divine Soul.

He only needed to sink his mind in to sense abundant information.

Including various tasks.

At present, the most frequent task was "recruitment."

Complete a task, and you gain points, which can be exchanged for rewards.

Given his Realm and permissions, the only accepted task is recruiting young geniuses to the Human Civilization self-rescue organization, nurturing organizational ideals—namely, human supremacy.

Nan Hao read through the task descriptions in detail.

He had to admit.

At least for now, what this organization does truly offers immense help to Human Civilization.

Matching Cultivation Techniques for humans aside, even just this targeted education clearly aims to cultivate strong humans with unified positions and even beliefs.

For example, "taking the strength and prosperity of Human Civilization as one's lifelong goal."

From Nan Hao's perspective, he saw no problem with this education, this cultivation.

Crucially, the rewards were unbelievably generous!

Just by recruiting and nurturing ten qualified geniuses, the points awarded would be enough for him to redeem a Divine Medicine said to heal most injuries below the Divine Power Realm in record time.

Or even rare resources he'd heard of or hadn't even heard of.

Nan Hao had made up his mind.

And acted quickly.

Just the next day, everyone in the city saw news about an announcement from the Guardian Mansion—the Guardian Envoy had exited seclusion and decided to inspect the major Martial Arts Schools!

This message caused a big stir throughout the city.

For such a small city, the Guardian Envoy was the city's "sky."

Not only holding the highest authority, but also being the linchpin for the city's survival.

It could even be said that if something happened to the city's Guardian Envoy—even a temporary absence—the city could be destroyed at any time.

This made most Guardian Envoys enjoy extremely high prestige in the cities they guard.

When High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu arrived at school, he found the whole school in motion.

From the principal, to the teachers, down to the students—everyone was fired up.

High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu overheard the students in lively discussion.

"The Guardian Envoy is actually coming to our school!"

"I heard that this time the Guardian Envoy is coming to select geniuses for cultivation."

"If you're lucky enough to catch the Guardian Envoy's eye, it would be meteoric rise!"

"We shouldn't dream about it—only the top geniuses in school stand a chance."

"Even so, just seeing the Guardian Envoy in person would make me wake up smiling from a dream!"

"..."

Evidently, the position of Guardian Envoy in everyone's eyes truly is extraordinary.

Especially for the students in the school.

In fact, stories of the Guardian Envoy's heroic deeds were part of the school's curriculum.

As a transmigrator, High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu didn't feel so strongly, but watching his classmates' reactions, he gained a deep sense of this era's character.

"No one doesn't wish their race to be strong, their civilization to flourish," High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu thought to himself, "Even traitors, when young, would have a sense of belonging to their race. If you truly want to rebuild Human Civilization's cohesion, starting with the students might be a good direction."

Cohesion—this was one of the top priorities for High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu right now.

For Human Civilization in this world, with powerful foes all around, if the internal cohesion isn't enough, no matter how much strength is gained, it's all an illusion.

Soon after, High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu, from the perspective of a regular student, saw Nan Hao.

This Guardian Envoy wore a very grave expression, not at all approachable.

Understandable.

Though the supreme authority of the city, he was still not a politician, but a strongman, a warrior, a soldier of the battlefield.

Even facing children—they were kids of the Martial Arts Academy, a group of future warriors.

This made the Guardian Envoy instinctively view these people as new recruits.

But what surprised High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu was that Nan Hao did not simply choose the students with the highest Martial Arts talent, but conducted far more comprehensive assessments.

Especially testing students' sense of belonging to Human Civilization.

This became his primary criterion for selecting geniuses.

"Nan Hao already has some sense of belonging to the Human Civilization self-rescue organization," High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu was pleasantly surprised.

In yesterday's encounter, he directly used Gray Mist to probe Nan Hao's inner thoughts, and indeed sensed that instinctive wariness.

After all, the environment for Human Civilization was simply too harsh.

If it were High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu, he wouldn't easily trust a suddenly appearing, unheard-of, and extremely mysterious organization.

Even if joining, it would be for the rich rewards.

But all these things that Nan Hao was doing now were not required by the task; this was his initiative. It meant he was no longer simply acting for the reward—he'd put some real thought into it.

Especially the testing of "sense of belonging."

This was laying the foundation for Human Civilization.

"This person can be valued more highly," High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu thought.

What he'd said to Nan Hao yesterday wasn't wrong.

After cautiously vetting those invited to join the Human Civilization self-rescue organization, the organization also selectively nurtures them based on their behavior.

Lower power's no big deal.

For High-Level Martial Artist Shen Yu, for the All Heavens End-of-the-World Civilization Mutual Aid Association, power has never been the first criterion.

Character and stance are far more important than power.
