Alpha Dog, Greetings, Master!

"Those below War General level, leave!"

"Don't make me say it a second time!"

Jiang Zhe's cold gaze swept across the crowd. No one dared defy his orders, and the pretty girls the old man had sent over filed out one after another.

Only one young girl remained. Her tiny fists were clenched tight, her lips bitten as the sisters around her gradually left. She stood there alone, looking helpless.

Jiang Zhe asked coldly, "Who are you? Why aren't you leaving?"

"My, my name is Lei Lei. I'm fifteen this year, and I came to the Jiang Family Martial Hall to build my foundation." The girl gathered her courage and met Jiang Zhe's eyes with a stubborn gaze.

Butler Wu quickly stepped forward, intending to whisper something in Jiang Zhe's ear, but Jiang Zhe raised a hand to stop him.

There was no need for a reminder. The moment he heard that name, he knew who she was.

Thunder God's daughter.

The poor little girl whose father had killed her boyfriend over puppy love.

He couldn't send this one away. She needed special treatment, but he had no intention of raising a child right now.

"Uncle Wu, take her to my Sis Si. Sis Si will teach her for now."

Butler Wu left with Lei Lei. Jiang Zhe turned his gaze toward the remaining martial artists, among whom were quite a few familiar faces.

There were core prospects from the HR Alliance, stern-looking members of the military, and direct descendants of councilors and War Gods...

There were also a small number of independent martial artists who had come to him themselves, but passed the old man's review.

Jiang Zhe treated them equally and continued the selection.

"Those who want to learn Psychic Master methods, stand on the left. Those who want to learn a martial artist's Force Amplification Technique, stand on the right."

"Report!" A young man requested loudly.

"Speak!"

Jiang Zhe could tell the man's identity from his upright posture.

"Teacher, what if I want to pursue both methods? How should I choose?"

"Do you think I wouldn't have considered that? Stop overthinking it and do as I say!"

"Yes, Teacher!"

The young man stepped out and took his place in the open area to the left, setting an example for the others.

The rest began moving as well. In less than a dozen seconds, they had formed two clearly divided groups.

Yet what puzzled everyone was that Katlan, the famous War God Level Psychic Master, had gone to the right. Could it be that he disdained the methods of Earth's Number One Psychic Master?

Some noticed Jiang Zhe casting Katlan an approving glance, leaving them even more confused.

Before they had time to think further, Jiang Zhe dropped another bombshell: Brain Domain Capacity. Everyone pricked up their ears and focused completely, afraid of missing any important information.

Through their respective factions' teachings, they all knew that Psychic Master Talent varied in quality. They had never expected there to be a concrete method of measurement.

Watching the detector in Jiang Zhe's hand, adults in their twenties and thirties sweated nervously.

"Brain Domain Capacity: 7!"

"Brain Domain Capacity: 5!"

"Brain Domain Capacity: 9!"

"Brain Domain Capacity: 13. Not bad. You're about on par with Katlan, but I still don't recommend cultivating as a Psychic Master."

With Earthlings' trash bloodline, they already struggled terribly just to cultivate Gene Primordial Energy, let alone Psychic Power, which accumulated even more slowly than primordial energy.

At Earth's current stage, they had no way to provide Nutrient Solution to solve the problem of Energy Accumulation.

If those with a Brain Domain Capacity below 10 specialized in becoming Psychic Masters, they might waste decades and still fail to reach the level of a Mid-Level War God.

It would be better to switch to being martial artists early, cultivate the simpler Gene Primordial Energy, and grind their way to Planetary Level first. Then they could gain a thousand-year lifespan.

Jiang Zhe told those with Brain Domain Capacity below 10 to leave, or join the martial artist group.

No one left. They all chose the second path.

As for the three people with Brain Domain Capacity above 10, Jiang Zhe gave each of them a special "Consciousness Connector" wristband. It could log into the Virtual Space Oriana had built, similar to the War God Palace.

Inside, they would receive a copy of the Psychic Master Fundamentals: 81 Forms that he had made up on the spot, far superior to the trash manuals deduced by Hong's intelligent brain.

"War General level, those with force amplification below 2, leave!"

"War God Level, those with force amplification below 3, leave!"

"Psychic Masters may ignore the force amplification requirement and stay!"

One after another, people were filtered out until only twenty-three remained in front of the small courtyard.

Among them were four War Gods and nineteen Battle Generals. The oldest was not even thirty. They were the true elite of Earthlings.

Jiang Zhe nodded in satisfaction.

Anyone who could not even understand the first two or four levels of Ninefold Thunder Blade definitely lacked the comprehension needed to cultivate a complete Power Emission Technique.

After giving the twenty-three of them ordinary "Consciousness Connector" wristbands, he sent them away.

The Virtual Space would be where they studied from now on. The preconfigured intelligent programs inside would guide them.

Each private room contained a copy of the Newly Compiled Xingyi: Tiger Form (Version 1.0) manual. Cultivating it to mastery would grant complete 3x force amplification.

Speed, strength, defense... it contained them all, meeting the universal standards of the cosmos.

Of course, Jiang Zhe could create Force Amplification Manuals with 10x amplification or more, but among Earthlings as they were now, only a handful could learn them.

It was better to create a whole series of lower-tier manuals, progressing from simple to advanced and containing the correct principles of force application, so they could rebuild their foundations.

With Version 1.0, there would naturally be upgraded Version 2.0 and Version 3.0.

The Virtual Space also contained many auxiliary cultivation devices from Yunmo Star. Going this far did not count as leaking Yunmo Star's secret techniques.

Jiang Zhe felt that he had already shown Huyan Bo and Barabata plenty of respect.

When he returned to the house, he saw Oriana swallowing a piece of B-grade metal into the core in her chest.

This was her unique method of cultivation.

These stellar-grade metals had all been taken from the World Bracelet. They were rations that the Mechanical Race immortal had prepared for the Zwicka Worms.

Over the past tens of thousands of years, the Zwicka Worms had not had any production tasks. According to Oriana, they had consumed less than half of the original metal reserves.

Jiang Zhe nearly grinned from ear to ear.

His family suddenly had a mine. Didn't that mean he now had funding to head into the universe?

Excluding certain extremely rare types, B-grade metal sold for an average of one to several dozen Black Dragon Coins per ton.

As for C-grade metal... C-grade Uranium-Yttrium Metal cost three thousand Black Dragon Coins per ton, while C-grade Flowing Silver cost one hundred sixty million Black Dragon Coins per ton!

The Mechanical Race immortal had stockpiled both of these relatively common metals.

It was fine for Oriana to steal a little at a time, but if she took too much, the Mechanical Puppets that conducted periodic inventory checks would notice.

Therefore, if they wanted to completely claim the benefits within the World Bracelet, they still had to deal with that troublesome Intelligent Life Form.

Fortunately, after working at it for half a month, Oriana said they would have results today.

Passing through the living room, Jiang Zhe did not rush her. He entered the Cultivation Room to practice the basics of a Control Master, pondering the nine fundamental techniques: congealing, flexibility, dispersal, sharpness, softness, hardness, dancing, illusion, and fusion.

"Welcome to the Virtual World: Inherited Martial Hall!"

Electronic prompts rang beside every user's ears. They only had time to glance around their private spaces before receiving the intelligent program's beginner guidance.

After learning about the virtual Inherited Martial Hall, everyone turned to look at the manuals on their desks.

After reading the preface, they all frowned.

Only 3x force amplification? I came here to learn this kind of trash?

Suppressing their impatience, they flipped to the main text and question marks seemed to pop up over their heads.

Oh no, why can't I even understand this trash?

—??? This is 3x force amplification? Why is there so much information? It's so obscure and difficult!

A full two or three hours later, the twenty-odd people staggered downstairs in a daze and began trying the various facilities in the Inherited Martial Hall that assisted with force amplification and movement techniques.

After trying them, they got a taste of the benefits. Every one of them was incredibly excited, huddling in separate training rooms and unwilling to come out.

When Jiang Zhe emerged from the Cultivation Room that evening, Oriana was sitting upright on the living room sofa. Who knew how long she had been waiting for him?

"Looks like it's finished. How were the results?"

Oriana raised a hand and swept it over the coffee table. A basketball-sized purple-gold mechanical sphere dropped onto the tempered glass.

Blue light shone through the seams on the sphere's surface, interweaving into a half-meter-long mechanical dog.

"Woof!"

"Intelligent Life Form Alpha Dog greets Master!"

Jiang Zhe: "..."

He turned to Oriana, asking with his eyes, Did you invite it here to play chess with me?

"Master, let us take you to see the full extent of the World within the Bracelet."

Oriana ignored his question and directly guided Jiang Zhe's consciousness into the Virtual Space.

Within the chaotic void.

A map nearly half the size of an urban district appeared before Jiang Zhe.

Looking at the scale on the map, Jiang Zhe realized something was wrong and hurriedly asked, "Anna, how large is the Isolated Realm inside the bracelet?"

"Woof!"

"Reporting to Master, the World within the Bracelet has a diameter of nearly ten billion kilometers!"
