Sea of Consciousness Score

"You can't put it that way. Mental Power can be tempered and grow stronger day by day. Being able to break through the 89-meter fog barrier already puts you at the very top among Apprentice Divine Sense Masters."

Wei Changshan turned to Chen Lie and said, "Congratulations, Chen Lie. You've passed the Divine Sense Master examination and become an Apprentice Divine Sense Master.

"I hope you'll keep working hard and make further breakthroughs, so you can advance as soon as possible.

"The Association will issue your Apprentice Divine Sense Master Certificate shortly. In accordance with the Blue Star United Government's regulations, we'll also apply on your behalf for one pound of Outer Stars cultivation resources for Mental Power: a Spirit Nourishing Flower. You can leave your address before you go. Once headquarters approves the application, the Three Rivers Divine Sense Master Association Branch will mail it to you, or you can come pick it up yourself."

"Wait," Chen Lie said suddenly. "Didn't you say there'd be a reward for passing the third test? I want to try the third Divine Sense Master examination."

"Sure. If you want to try, go ahead."

Wei Changshan said, "Come with me to the fourth floor."

Chen Lie nodded and followed Wei Changshan upstairs.

The fourth-floor hall of the Divine Sense Master Association was hidden behind a huge curtain.

Once they arrived, a staff member on the fourth floor quickly came over to Wei Changshan and bowed respectfully.

"President!"

"Mm."

Wei Changshan nodded slightly and instructed him, "Go pull the curtain open."

"Yes!"

At his command, the staff member immediately went to draw back the huge curtain on the fourth floor.

Behind it stood a crystal Optical Computer connected to an enormous, 500-inch display.

Wei Changshan explained, "This is a large Optical Computer connected to the Divine Sense Master Association network across all of Blue Star.

"The huge display in the middle is made from special materials. It can contain Mental Power and support its circulation."

"The third test concerns a Divine Sense Master's Consciousness Sea World."

"If an Apprentice Divine Sense Master wants to advance, they must construct their own Consciousness Sea World.

"The Consciousness Sea World also determines a Divine Sense Master's potential. The more expansive the world they construct, the greater their achievements will be in the future.

"So generally speaking, Apprentice Divine Sense Masters who haven't yet advanced will do everything they can to build their Consciousness Sea World."

"This test requires you to use Mental Power to construct your Consciousness Sea World and display it on this specially made screen.

"Once you've finished, this Optical Computer, which is connected to Blue Star's Divine Sense Master network, will give you a score.

"The Blue Star Divine Sense Master network will score your Sea of Consciousness. If you get over ten thousand points, that means your Consciousness Sea World has a foundation beyond the ordinary, and you'll receive a reward from Blue Star Divine Sense Master headquarters."

After Wei Changshan finished speaking, Chen Lie asked, "May I ask what the reward from headquarters is?"

"Usually, it's either a Concentration Herb or one pound of Spirit Nourishing Flower.

"If your Consciousness Sea World score can exceed—"

"Of course, if your score breaks Three Rivers' previous record for the highest Consciousness Sea score, you'll receive a rare Outer Stars treasure for Mental Power.

"Such rare treasures for Mental Power come from the Outer Stars. They're at least ten times more precious than Martial Dao Rare Treasures of the same level."

Wei Changshan said.

"Then how many points would my Consciousness Sea World need to break the record for Apprentice Divine Sense Masters in Three Rivers?"

"Three hundred thousand!" Wei Changshan replied.

At that moment, Shen Feixue said, "I think you should forget it. The highest Consciousness Sea score among Apprentice Divine Sense Masters throughout Three Rivers' history is over 289,000. There's no way you can break it.

"My sister Wei's Consciousness Sea World is an ocean.

"When she first became an Apprentice Divine Sense Master, her Mental Power wasn't strong enough to construct such a vast Consciousness Sea World in its entirety. Even so, she scored over 270,000. Once her Mental Power is strong enough, she can take the test again and break the record with ease.

"Everyone in Yunchuan Province knows about the reward for the Three Rivers Divine Sense Master Association's Consciousness Sea record. It was prepared for her. You're an outsider—do you really think you can take a reward the Divine Sense Master Association headquarters set aside for people from the Three Provinces of Chuanzhong?"

Shen Miaowei watched Chen Lie with the same attitude.

"Then it sounds like this reward was meant for me."

Chen Lie ignored Shen Feixue.

If an ocean for a Consciousness Sea World could score close to 300,000, then the reward for breaking the Three Rivers Divine Sense Master record would be his for the taking.

Besides, a rare treasure for Mental Power from the Outer Stars was practically one of a kind on Blue Star. Even one or two billion Star Dollars wouldn't buy it.

It was already beyond anything money could measure. He couldn't afford to miss out.

"Since you're so confident, let's begin!" Wei Changshan said.

Chen Lie went to the 500-inch special display and reached out to touch it. Through his palm, he continuously channeled Mental Power into the screen and began constructing his Consciousness Sea World.

His Consciousness Sea World had only constructed a tiny fraction of the first stage, the Seven Mansions of the Southern Sky. Yet even that was enough to leave every Divine Sense Master on Blue Star far behind and shatter their understanding.

So Chen Lie decided to keep a low profile. He would construct only the first star he had lit in the Ghost Constellation Four Stars, the second mansion of the Seven Mansions of the Southern Sky.

Chen Lie continued channeling Mental Power into the screen, and at last its color began to change.

Gradually, a huge crimson sphere took shape and appeared in the very center of the screen.

"What's that? A giant ball?" Shen Feixue asked, baffled.

As Chen Lie continued channeling Mental Power, the image on the screen grew clearer.

"That's... a Fixed Star!" Wei Changshan exclaimed in shock.

This young man had constructed a Fixed Star as his Consciousness Sea World?

At last, Chen Lie finished constructing the first star of the Ghost Constellation Four Stars in his Consciousness Sea World on the screen.

A Fixed Star radiating an ancient, timeless aura slowly revolved.

The Optical Computer began announcing the results.

"Consciousness Sea World construction complete. Blue Star Divine Sense Master network system is calculating the score."

"Calculating..."

"Calculation complete. Consciousness Sea Score: 2,765,000."

"Ding-dong! Ding-dong!"

"This Consciousness Sea score has broken the record for the Three Provinces of Chuanzhong and has been listed as the newest Consciousness Sea score record for the Three Provinces of Chuanzhong."

"Report! Report!

"This Consciousness Sea score has entered the top ten of the Blue Star Apprentice Divine Sense Master Sea of Consciousness ranking. The system will automatically upload this score to the Blue Star Divine Sense Master Association headquarters."

"Generating information..."

"Name: Chen Lie.
