Advancing to Star Level

Chi Li flicked her furry tail, brushing it across the back of Yu Duan's hand, and breathed out like an orchid: "Little brother Yu Duan is quite confident, isn't he? Would you like big sister to teach you the mysteries of the Light Laws tonight?"

As she spoke, Chi Li's dreamy purple eyes seemed to shimmer with flowing water, and she bit her lip lightly.

A vixen!

This was a real-deal vixen!

Yu Duan took a deep breath, feeling slightly uncomfortable, and adjusted his sitting posture.

An Yao coughed twice and said, "Yu Duan, if you want to get beaten to a pulp and hung at the entrance of the public bar with the word 'pervert' stuck to your forehead, then go find Chi Li to exchange insights tonight."

Chi Li immediately shot a 'killing' glare at An Yao, her charm overflowing: "Keep your mouth shut. Do you think Yu Duan is as ugly as you?"

An Yao was immediately dissatisfied: "I don't think I'm ugly. These neat scales on my forehead and this hairless scalp make me a top-tier handsome young man in our race!"

After some playful bickering and chatting, two or three thousand people entered the lecture hall one after another, the vast majority of whom were Star Level, with a very small number of Universe Level.

A massive pressure suddenly emerged, and the next moment, it felt as if a brilliant star had appeared on the podium.

Immediately, thousands of young students stood up in a hurry and bowed to the podium.

"Greetings, Teacher."

This Immortal teacher was a middle-aged man nearly ten meters tall, with white wings on his back and clad in white-gold battle armor.

He did not radiate any blazing light, yet he gave people the illusion that they were facing a dazzling star head-on.

"Mm, all of you, sit."

A deep voice rang out, and as the Immortal God announced the start of the lecture, the figures of everyone in the lecture hall, except for Yu Duan and the teacher, vanished in an instant.

At the same time, Yu Duan's seat shifted, placing him directly 50 meters in front of the podium to listen to the Immortal God's lecture at close range.

This was the convenience of attending classes in the Virtual Universe; no matter how many people came to listen, it could be turned into an almost one-on-one teaching method.

"Today, I will first talk about how to perceive the Laws and how to step across the threshold of the Laws."

"If you want to comprehend the Laws, the three most important things are actually: talent, willpower, and comprehension!"

On the podium, the Immortal God moved his wings slightly, and instantly, light screens emerged, appearing like 'blackboards' and displaying all kinds of data.

"Talent determines the clarity with which you perceive the Laws. Those races with the strongest human bloodlines can even detect the faint fluctuations of the origin Laws while at the seventh level of the Domain."

"When you are all at the peak of the ninth level of the Domain, the Law fluctuations they perceive are far clearer than those of other bloodlines, making them easier to comprehend. This is talent!"

"Likewise, willpower is also key to perceiving the Laws!"

"With the same ordinary bloodline, some can detect hazy Law fluctuations at the eighth level of the Domain, while others need the ninth level. There are even mediocrities who, at the peak of the ninth level of the Domain, still cannot detect any Law fluctuations."

"The gap between them lies in willpower!"

"Geniuses with strong willpower can forcibly calm their thoughts and immerse themselves completely in perceiving nature, allowing them to detect those imperceptible Law fluctuations."

"Finally, there is comprehension."

"If everyone can detect Law fluctuations, why can some comprehend the mysteries while others cannot? This is the gap in comprehension."

"Talent and comprehension cannot be taught, and I cannot teach them to you either."

"But willpower is different! The most direct way to hone willpower is to endure pain."

"Next, I will teach you a special technique I created myself. It can create intense pain without harming your body. Only by enduring pain and honing yourself can you make your willpower indestructible!"

On the podium, the majestic Immortal God spoke eloquently.

He dissected the three key factors for comprehending the Laws very thoroughly.

Finally, he even taught the most important practical knowledge: a 'self-torture' secret technique called Lianxin Dian, which served to hone one's willpower!

The special secret technique sounded profound, but in reality, it was not particularly deep; any force founded by an Immortal God had similar methods.

The lecture lasted for about four hours.

In addition to explaining the relationship between talent, willpower, and comprehension and teaching the secret technique, he also discussed many classic doubts regarding the Domain level and the initial threshold of the Laws.

At least for Yu Duan, it was quite rewarding.

After the public lecture ended, Chi Li and An Yao invited Yu Duan to have a small gathering in the real world.

However, Yu Duan could only politely decline; he still had two days left before he could come out of the nutrient pod.

In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.

On the Planetary Level student island, deep within the Yu Duan manor.

In the quiet room, Yu Duan was suspended in mid-air, his peak Planetary Level genetic energy surging within his body.

In his dantian, nine brilliant, milky-white miniature planets were flickering with light, orbiting his life core.

Countless milky-white light-attribute energies surged and spread, filling every cell in his body to the brim, and the nine miniature planets had grown to their limit, unable to improve even a fraction further.

"It's about time. Breakthrough!"

Yu Duan did not hesitate at all, controlling all the genetic energy in his body and forcibly pouring it into the largest of the nine miniature planets!

Boom!

The miniature planet shattered in that instant, transforming into an endless cloud of dust.

Following closely behind, the remaining eight miniature planets erupted one after another.

The countless white hexahedral crystals that made up the miniature planets flooded the entire dantian, coalescing into a "massive" nebula.

Yu Duan's will condensed to its limit at this moment, and the countless crystalline white celestial bodies converged, beginning to form the core of a star at the "mass point" of this nebula.

"Boom!"

The moment the core was born, the brilliant milky-white nebula collapsed instantly, forming a blazing white fireball in the blink of an eye, resembling a cosmic star shrunk countless times over.

All the genetic origin energy within Yu Duan's body was swallowed by the miniature star in that instant, only to undergo a transformation within the fireball and spread back out in the form of "light radiation"!

The moment the Star Level origin energy was born, every cell in Yu Duan's body began to boil, initiating a metamorphosis of his life level as he officially stepped into the Star Level.

"Tianran, request Star Level verification!"

Yu Duan did not waste a single second, immediately applying for Star Level certification.

About half an hour later, two Universe Level staff members dressed in black uniforms arrived at Yu Duan's residence to conduct the Star Level verification.

"Your Highness, please release your origin energy!"

Yu Duan nodded slightly, and his Star Level origin energy instantly expanded, radiating outward in all directions.

"Beep. Origin energy intensity: Star Level 1!"

Following the standard procedure, the two staff members brought out another instrument to test his blood, ultimately confirming that Yu Duan's physical genes had also ascended to the Star Level.

After the formalities were completed, one of the staff members bowed slightly and said, "We have confirmed your promotion to the Star Level, Your Highness. Your residence will now be relocated to the Star Level Continent, where a 'Star Level' nutrient pod has already been prepared for you."

Yu Duan nodded with a smile: "Thank you both for your hard work!"

Although using a nutrient pod for evolution would still waste a few days of "sunbathing" time, the increase in efficiency was the top priority.

Yu Duan was now incredibly eager to see how many times his progress-grinding efficiency would increase once he reached the peak of the Star Level.
