Chapter 281: Chapter 217: The Four-star Natural Wonder: Northern Heaven Ridge; Instructors Form Teams, the Divine Artifact: Hall of Truth

Effect Two: Source of Ten Thousand Waters. The glaciers and snowfields formed in the northern mountains of the Divine Realm are a stable and pure source of solid water. Nourished over the long term by the Divine Realm’s High-Magic Environment, they contain a trace of Ice/Water Law Origin. Long-term consumption of glacial water can slightly increase Water/Ice Attribute Talent. With long-term nourishment, the glacial environment may even give birth to a Divine Position of a corresponding attribute. (Affected by Magic Power Level and Divine Domain Level, the resulting Divine Position will not be a high Level and will likely be a Lower Class Divine Position.)

Effect Three: Snow Realm’s Bounty. Influenced by a large amount of Subspace Origin as the Divine Realm expands, the Snow Realm manifested in the north will, over a period of time, nurture a large quantity of Ice Magic Resources, a small amount of Water Magic Resources, and give birth to precious Ice Attribute Magic Plants and numerous Magic Ore Veins containing the Ice Element!

Effect Four: Frost Shelter. Influenced by the Natural Wonder [Northern Heaven Ridge], any Clan within the Divine Realm recognized by the Lord of the Divine Realm will experience a slight increase in the power of their Ice and Water Attribute Magic upon entering the Northern Territory. At the same time, their resistance to cold environments is temporarily boosted!

After reading the introduction for [Northern Heaven Ridge], the first Natural Wonder to appear in his Divine Realm, a glint of satisfaction flashed in Zhang Yi’s eyes. The Four-star Natural Wonder, [Northern Heaven Ridge], was an all-in-one Natural Wonder that integrated offense, defense, resource development, and environmental buffs. Its value was immense!

Effect One, the Celestial Chasm Barrier, came with its own No-fly Zone and would unleash natural disasters on enemies, turning any Clan’s dream of crossing from the north into a mere fantasy! It truly turned the northern border of Zhang Yi’s Divine Realm into an impregnable chasm, where one man could guard the pass against ten thousand.

As for Effect Two, the Source of Ten Thousand Waters, its potential was boundless! Not only did it solve the water resource problem in the Divine Realm, but it also laid a good foundation for entering the industrial era of Magical Civilization. Furthermore, long-term consumption of the glacial water could enhance the Clan’s Water and Ice Attribute Talent. There was so much water flowing from the glaciers each year that even if every member of the Clan drank their fill, they would never run out!

And the Elemental Divine Position nestled within the Snow Realm could, in the future, add a Clan member who held a Divine Position to Zhang Yi’s Divine Realm. Even a Lower Class Divine Position, when cultivated to its absolute limit, could produce a Clan member with the power of a Weak Divine Being. The amount of Faith Value that even the most devout Holy Believer could provide in a day was nothing compared to what even an impious Weak Divine Being could generate! And that’s not even to mention the difference in power.

As for Effect Three, Snow Realm’s Bounty, it was a tangible boost that substantially enriched the reserves of Magic Materials in Zhang Yi’s Divine Realm. If he ever faced enemy Clans of the Fire or Ice Attributes in the future, Magical Weapons forged from materials mined in the Snow Realm would likely prove exceptionally effective!

If Effect One, the Celestial Chasm Barrier, weakened attacking Clans from the north, then Effect Four, Frost Shelter, strengthened the defending Clans stationed there. With one side weakened and the other strengthened, the defenders could hold their ground even if they were two Levels lower than the attackers!

After reviewing the effects of the Four-star Natural Wonder, [Northern Heaven Ridge], in detail and marveling at its power, the sliver of consciousness Zhang Yi had sent into his Divine Realm withdrew, returning to the Starry Hall. After all, Zhang Yi hadn’t forgotten that his physical body was still back in the Starry Hall. This was just a mid-assessment reward that allowed a sliver of his consciousness to enter his Divine Realm.

As that sliver of Zhang Yi’s consciousness returned to the Starry Hall, a brief commotion followed. After a few more minutes, once every student’s consciousness had returned, Chief Instructor Yang’s voice rang out again.

"All rewards for the first round of the Yanhuang Federation’s assessment in this University Alliance Training Camp have now been distributed."

"Next, we will enter the second phase of the Yanhuang Federation assessment—team formation!"

"Instructors from the Yanhuang Federation’s six great top-tier academies, as well as instructors from 120 key academies, will now select students to form their teams!"

"Instructors from the various academies may now begin recruiting their desired students. However, if a student is scouted by instructors from multiple academies, the student has the right to choose among them."

"Each instructor has a quota of ten students to form a team. However, only ten teams in total will be selected to advance to the third round of the Yanhuang Federation assessment."

"Once team formation is complete, I will announce the rules for the second round of the Yanhuang Federation assessment!"

"The selection begins now!"

As Chief Instructor Yang laid out the rules for team formation in a clear and simple manner, a wave of excitement washed over both the students and instructors.

It’s finally time!

The moment Chief Instructor Yang finished speaking, instructors from the six great top-tier academies, along with a few from the key academies, immediately fixed their gazes on the students seated upon the Golden Thrones. Normally, students seated on the Golden Thrones would only accept invitations from instructors belonging to the six great top-tier academies. However, a small number of students, upon learning that only one person in a ten-person team could become captain and receive the lion’s share of the resources, adopted a "better the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix" mentality. Thus, in past iterations of this Yanhuang Federation assessment at the University Alliance Training Camp, a few top-talented students from the Golden Thrones had chosen to join teams from key academies rather than those from the top-tier ones.

These few instructors from the key academies stood up with precisely this hope in mind—to get lucky and snag an overlooked gem.

However, today was destined to be different.

When the instructors from the six great top-tier academies rose, nearly every one of them let their gaze sweep over Zhang Yi. Almost simultaneously, four instructors from top-tier academies at the very front spoke in unison.

"I am Instructor Wang Sheng from the War Academy. I would like to invite student Zhang Yi to join the team we are forming." Instructor Wang Sheng’s voice was like thunder, and his gaze was searing. "Student Zhang Yi, if you are willing to join the team formed by the War Academy, I am prepared to offer you an S Level admission and training contract!

"Upon enrollment, you will not only be assigned a mentor with the power of a Weak Divine Being and a Divine Position similar to your own for one-on-one guidance, but for every month you are at the academy, you will also be issued three top-tier Divine Domain Cards compatible with your current Divine Realm. You can choose any type you wish!"

The moment the offer was made, the entire hall was stunned! An S Level training contract was the highest-level contract possible upon admission! Moreover, one-on-one guidance from a mentor with the power of a Weak Divine Being would save Zhang Yi an immense amount of time in developing his Divine Realm and help him avoid countless pitfalls. Its value was immeasurable! On top of that, the academy would provide Zhang Yi with three top-tier Divine Domain Cards compatible with his Divine Realm every single month after he enrolled. This degree of resource allocation was enough to drive any student wild with excitement!

However, before Instructor Wang Sheng had even finished speaking, another, more scholarly voice cut in, interrupting him.

"Instructor Wen Xinhua, of the Truth Academy." Instructor Wen Xinhua pushed up his glasses, his eyes as sharp as needles behind the lenses. "Student Zhang Yi, I can match that S Level admission and training contract. What’s more, I can offer you one hour of access to the Hall of Truth every month!

"If you are willing to join the team from our Truth Academy, student Zhang Yi, I can begin your one-on-one guidance immediately!"

"HUAH!"

The uproar from the crowd was even louder than when Instructor Wang Sheng from the War Academy had made his offer!

One hour of access to the Hall of Truth every single month!

The Hall of Truth, one had to understand, was a Middle-level Divine Artifact that the Truth Academy had created at an immense cost. Furthermore, it was a special Middle-level Divine Artifact specifically used for comprehending Laws! Its value surpassed that of many offensive Upper Class Divine Artifacts!

For Demigods and even True Gods, the chance to regularly enter the Hall of Truth to comprehend Laws was a phenomenal opportunity that countless Divine Beings could only dream of. Inside the Hall of Truth, students could immerse themselves in all kinds of Laws. Whether it was a Demigod comprehending a Law to forge a Divine Position, or a True God deepening their understanding of their own Divine Position, it was an incredibly rare opportunity! Many instructors at the Truth Academy itself only received one hour of access to the Hall of Truth each month. Yet Zhang Yi was being offered the same privilege as the Truth Academy’s own instructors, without having to pay any price whatsoever.

This was, without a doubt, the greatest show of sincerity Instructor Wen Xinhua could possibly make
