Green Bird Transmission

Two Worlds Pass, General's Mansion.

General Liu Yong'an, who was responsible for guarding the Two Worlds Pass, discussed the deployment arrangements since the appearance of the Mind Stabilizing Supernatural Power with his advisor Zhang Xingjian. They unified their opinions to avoid any problems.

Afterward, Zhang Xingjian suddenly remembered something. He said, "That's right, General. Commander Wang's side has already completed the specific tests for the Mind Stabilizing Supernatural Power, 'Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage'."

General Liu frowned. It was good that the tests were completed.

The night before last, due to time constraints, they had only conducted a brief test before heading to the battlefield.

The reason for this haste was that this supernatural power had been uploaded to the Heavenly Dao Virtual Net, accessible to all races. Therefore, they had to seize the opportunity, gain an advantage, and expand their gains before the other side learned it and the situation became balanced again, just like it was now.

Zhang Xingjian was also aware of this matter, so he had been having Commander Wang lead a group of people to conduct intensive tests on all aspects of this supernatural power, its advantages and disadvantages, to facilitate future applications.

After the efforts of tens of thousands of people, the results were finally out this morning.

Zhang Xingjian continued his report: "First, let's discuss the range of this supernatural power. Like most supernatural powers, when used by a single person, it can only function within the range affected by spiritual energy."

The range of spiritual energy influence was actually determined by talent. One inch of talent corresponded to a radius of one meter.

Taking a Three-Star Cultivator, who made up the largest proportion at the Two Worlds Pass, as an example.

A newly advanced Three-Star Cultivator had 4 inches of talent, so their spiritual energy influence range was a radius of 4 meters.

For ordinary supernatural powers, such as Spiritual Energy Blade, Wind Blade, Fireball, etc., after leaving the spiritual energy influence range, they would rapidly weaken. At this point, the supernatural power would generally dissipate after flying another one or two meters.

Furthermore, once a supernatural power left the spiritual energy influence range, the cultivator could no longer exert any control over it, not even change its direction, or even make it collapse or dissipate.

Unless it was a supernatural power that had condensed a physical form, such as an Ice Cone or a Steel Longsword, they could detach from the cultivator's spiritual energy influence range for a long time, although the cultivator would have already lost control over them at this point.

Therefore, neither General Liu nor Advisor Zhang was surprised that the supernatural power 'Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage' ceased to function after leaving the spiritual energy influence range.

To be honest, it would be surprising if this supernatural power could still function after leaving the spiritual energy influence range.

This was nothing unusual.

Zhang Xingjian continued his report: "As before, after using the Combined Forces Supernatural Power, its effective range will also increase. If newly advanced Three-Star Cultivators form a Ten-Thousand-Man Formation, the influence range is still a radius of over eighty-six meters. This hasn't changed either."

General Liu pondered, "It hasn't changed... It seems normal. I originally thought this magical supernatural power could break this limitation. It seems I was overthinking it."

In fact, Zhang Xingjian was also quite disappointed about this.

For giants that were thirty to forty meters tall, a distance of eighty-six meters was only two or three steps away, meaning it was effective only at close range. Moreover, if the enemy wanted to escape, they might be able to escape the range with a slight leap.

There were two ways to increase this range.

One was to increase the number of people in the 'Combined Forces'.

However, the current Ten-Thousand-Man Formation was the maximum limit for 'Combined Forces', so this method was not feasible at the moment.

Unless the 'Combined Forces' supernatural power was improved again. But that was also very difficult. Ten thousand people... this was already the upper limit that military strategists had been able to achieve in nearly a hundred years.

Anything more was basically impossible.

The second method was to increase the cultivation level of the soldiers forming the 'Combined Forces', meaning recruiting cultivators of higher ranks to complete the 'Combined Forces'.

For newly advanced Three-Star Cultivators, the supernatural power's effective range was 4 meters. When forming a Ten-Thousand-Man Formation, the influence range was eighty-six meters.

But if they were replaced by Four-Star Cultivators, their supernatural power's effective range would be at least 8 meters. When forming a Ten-Thousand-Man Formation, the influence range would be at least one hundred and seventy-two meters.

This would double the effective range of the supernatural power, greatly enhancing the combat power of the 'Combined Forces' giants.

However, since a cultivator's cultivation could only be improved through continuous thinking and research, a cultivator's cultivation level could be seen as directly proportional to time.

Most people awakened at eighteen. By the time they advanced to Three-Star, they were already thirty or forty years old. Following this pattern, by the time they reached Four-Star cultivation, they should be fifty or sixty years old.

For humans with a lifespan of 120 years, fifty or sixty years old was still considered middle-aged.

However, most people had lost their drive around the age of forty. They just wanted to live a stable life, and might remain at Three-Star cultivation until death.

Therefore, there were far, far fewer Four-Star Cultivators in the world than Three-Star Cultivators, accounting for only one-tenth, or even less. Moreover, most of these Four-Star Cultivators were old men.

Setting aside whether this age was suitable for the battlefield, the fact that these Four-Star Cultivators were the intermediate force in society researching supernatural powers and extraordinary energy made them less suitable for the battlefield.

Moreover, as people aged, their physical functions would inevitably decline. The killing power of the giants they formed was debatable. It was important to note that the physical strength of a giant was related to the physical strength of the units that formed it.

Therefore, old people were rarely seen on the battlefield.

Unless...

Unless the human race was at a stage of life and death.

At that time, there was no other choice but to fight with all their might.

Of course, there were young Four-Star Cultivators. With a population of billions, it was possible to find tens of thousands of Four-Star Cultivators around the age of thirty or forty. However, those who reached Four-Star cultivation at this age were all outstanding individuals, heavenly prodigies.

Was it really appropriate to expend them on the battlefield?

What if they were sniped by other races after entering the battlefield? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Therefore, all races had a tacit agreement that the individual strength of those entering the Void Battlefield was mostly around Three-Star. This way, even if there were losses, the impact on the race would not be too great.

After discussing the range of the 'Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage' supernatural power, Zhang Xingjian continued his report on other aspects of the supernatural power's tests.

About an hour later, Zhang Xingjian finished explaining all the test results of the supernatural power.

During this time, General Liu listened silently, occasionally asking a few questions.

At this moment, General Liu suddenly asked, "Xingjian, have you found out the creator of this supernatural power? The one called 'Anonymous'."

Zhang Xingjian replied, "Not yet! This morning, we received reports from Yingdu, Zhongjing, and Yancheng, all saying they couldn't find anything."

"You couldn't find anything? Then forget it. As long as it belongs to our Human Race, that's good enough."

Hearing General Liu say this, Zhang Xingjian didn't object. For them, stationed at Two Worlds Pass, it didn't matter which country the creator was from. As long as they were human, that was all that mattered.

Moreover, it was better that the other party remained hidden, saving them from dealing with all sorts of annoying trivial matters. It was more important for the other party to create more useful supernatural powers.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xingjian said, "By the way, General, they seem to be planning to promote our victory nationwide, as well as this 'Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage' supernatural power."

General Liu understood immediately upon hearing this. "They want to lure the other party out with this?"

Zhang Xingjian remained silent. When he heard the news this morning, he already knew the tactics of those people. He just didn't know if they would be able to find the other party this time.

After a moment, General Liu waved his hand. "Forget it, we can't control this. We just need to guard Two Worlds Pass. I hope they can resist the temptation."

General Liu looked up towards the door, as if recalling past events.

In truth, he didn't have much confidence in that 'Anonymous' person. After all, few in this world could escape fame and fortune.

In the Chu Kingdom, Liyao City, Xiaoxiang Academy, within the Shuban Hall.

At this moment, the Dean of the Academy was speaking to a young woman in her early twenties.

"Jiang Zichun, you have made a contribution by reporting this supernatural power. The Academy and the government have decided to reward you with ten thousand points of Earth Luck."

Hearing that she was to be rewarded with ten thousand points of Earth Luck, Jiang Zichun, standing opposite the Dean, was so excited she almost jumped.

Ten thousand points! She had never seen so much in her entire life. If she had to accumulate Human Luck on her own, it would take over ten years.

With this, she could buy the supernatural powers she had always desired.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zichun repeatedly expressed her thanks.

Dean Wu waved his hand. "No need to thank me, you've earned it. Without your intelligence, we wouldn't have achieved such great results at Two Worlds Pass this time."

Hearing Dean Wu say this, Jiang Zichun accepted the reward with a clear conscience. However, she had already decided to give half of it to An Youyi, as she wouldn't have received this reward without the other party's reminder.

After the reward was issued, Dean Wu offered some words of encouragement, which made Jiang Zichun's blood boil with enthusiasm.

Just then, Dean Wu suddenly asked, "Zichun, do you know who the creator of the 'Chicken and Rabbit in the Same Cage' supernatural power is?"

Creator?

Jiang Zichun was a little stunned. She said, "Teacher, isn't the creator of this supernatural power 'Anonymous'?"

Not getting the answer he wanted, Dean Wu continued to ask, "I'm asking about their real identity. Do you know who it is?"

Jiang Zichun shook her head. "I don't know. I only discovered that supernatural power the night before yesterday. Then yesterday, I told An Youyi and Zhang Yurou."

"Alright!"

Dean Wu sighed in disappointment, though she hadn't held much hope for this matter to begin with. "By the way, was that comment on the Heavenly Dao website yours?"

"It was me who left the comment! The questions in this supernatural power are too few right now, and the answers are easy to memorize. So, I wanted the author to add more questions, which is why I left a comment. However, the author didn't reply to me."

"Oh, I see! Alright, you can go. By the way, the Academy has decided to offer a new course specifically on numerology. You should come and take a look when it starts."

"Yes, thank you, Teacher."

Dean Wu watched Jiang Zichun's retreating back and shook her head. After she left, she immediately activated the 'Green Bird Transmission' supernatural power and sent the current situation and her own speculations out.

Instantly, a small bird, appearing somewhat ethereal and covered in blue-green feathers, flapped its wings and flew north.

Watching the Green Bird fly away, Dean Wu breathed a sigh of relief. She had done what she could. As for how those people would judge and act afterward, it was no longer their Xiaoxiang Academy's concern.
