Chapter 92 (continued)
No one can give a definitive answer, but everyone seems to have their own answer in their heart.
These are the silent words of wisdom left by our predecessors.
The Huaxia Realm Domain is like this long, narrow, and fragile bridge, where the slightest misstep could lead to utter destruction.
The Astral Realm is that bottomless, endless void.
Every Star Wielders of the Huaxia should be aware of Huaxia's situation.
If you make a wrong move, you will be doomed.
They walked for about ten minutes before reaching the end of the bridge.
It was another gate, at least twenty meters high.
This time, however, there was no need to enter through the small door; instead, one could enter directly through the main door.
Because this door was always half-open.
He Song didn't rush inside, but turned around to look at everyone. "Welcome to the Huaxia Main City — the Heavenly Palace."
This was the first time Li Yang had ever heard the name of the Huaxia Main City.
Heavenly Palace
Li Yang thought of the space station she had learned about in her previous life.
They do indeed share some similarities.
This Huaxia Main City is indeed Huaxia's "space station" in the Astral Realm.
They stepped through the magnificent gate one after the other, and their vision instantly opened up before them.
Yu Hongyuan and Zhong Kun exclaimed in surprise, "It really is the Heavenly Palace!"
Let alone ordinary students, even scions of prominent families have never visited the Huaxia Main City.
They had heard about it countless times, but nothing compares to seeing it with their own eyes.
The name "Heavenly Palace" is truly fitting.
Li Yang was also overwhelmed by the sights.
In a daze, they seemed to have entered a mysterious world of immortals and heroes, and were now slowly stepping into a magnificent celestial palace.
The overall color scheme of the buildings here is jade white.
The architecture is ancient and elegant, with magnificent pavilions and towers everywhere you look.
Even the stone pillars surrounding the streets are adorned with various exquisite and mysterious mythical beast statues.
Those are not Astral Realm creatures, but mythical beasts from Huaxia legends.
For example, there are the Qilin, Taotie, Phoenix, Xuan Turtle, etc... and of course, the most common lion.
The ground was paved entirely with lustrous white jade; one was afraid of soiling the snow-white stone when stepping on it.
Yu Hongyuan sighed, "This is a city made of pure jade!"
He Song looked at them with a smile.
Every Star Wielders arrives in the Huaxia Main City is stunned by what they see.
The Agronomy Department students in front of us are no exception.
This is indeed a sight rarely seen within the Huaxia Realm Domain.
He Song explained, "This jade is extremely expensive in the Huaxia Realm Domain, but it's nothing special in the Astral Realm. Huaxia ancestors conquered a White Jade Realm Domain, which is rich in this kind of Realm Domain. There, it's more common than the soil and sand in our Realm Domain..."
The Astral Realm contains countless smaller Realm Domain.
The Huaxia Realm Domain may not be the strongest, but it is definitely not weak either.
The Huaxia Realm Domain also conquered many smaller Realm Domain.
It wasn't that Huaxia took the initiative to be the aggressor; rather, the other side struck first.
At least that's what the Star Nexus Pavilion announced to the public.
Li Yang listened to He Song's introduction and found it interesting.
She had heard a saying in her past life: that extremely precious minerals on Earth are abundant on some other planet.
This white jade must be something like this.
It is extremely rare in the Huaxia Realm Domain, but commonplace in another Realm Domain.
However, this kind of white jade is difficult to transport to the Huaxia Realm Domain because of the suppression of cultivation levels.
However, it's very easy and convenient to use it to build cities in the void.
They walked down the high steps and stepped onto the streets of Huaxia Main City.
At first, it felt quite unfamiliar, but after blending into the crowd, it felt quite familiar again.
Ultimately, it is still the Huaxia Realm Domain. Although the Star Wielders who come and go have high levels of cultivation, they are not much different from those on the Huaxia side.
He Song led them and said, "Let's go, let's register first."
Yu Hongyuan scratched his head and said, "It feels like I'm back in school."
His words made everyone feel more relaxed.
When they first entered Zhongdu Military Academy, they also went to register and report.
Now that I've arrived in the Huaxia Main City, the same process is being repeated, which makes me feel familiar and at ease.
He Song: "The Heavenly Palace is very large and is still expanding, but there are a few important points you should remember."
Every Star Wielders entering the Huaxia Main City must be registered.
Not only should you record your personal information, but you should also write down your department/faculty.
Although everyone who comes to the Huaxia Main City is a graduate, there is also a research department here for further studies.
For example, the Star Combat Division, the Star Magic Division, the Star Aperture Division, the Pill Division, and so on.
This place not only contains the six departments of the Zhongdu Military Academy, but also research departments from other military academies.
For example, the Star Curse Division, the Star Artifact Division, and so on.
The main administrative authority of Huaxia Main City rests with the Star Nexus Pavilion.
Not only in the Huaxia Main City, but also in many matters throughout the entire Huaxia Realm Domain, the Star Nexus Pavilion makes the decisions.
The Star Nexus Pavilion has twelve marquises.
They are also the twelve people with the highest power and combat strength in Huaxia at present.
The twelve marquises each had a different jurisdiction, and important matters were decided by voting.
The Twelve Marquises did not all guard the Huaxia Main City, but rather took turns on duty periodically.
Firstly, the Twelve Marquises also need to improve their cultivation levels; secondly, there are other Realm Domain in Huaxia that need to be guarded.
Li Yang listened with curiosity and asked, "Is the highest rank a marquis?"
He Song lowered his voice and said, "I heard that when the Huaxia Main City was first established, a true queen was born among the human race, but since her fall, the Star Nexus Pavilion has only had Twelve Marquises."
In this world, a person's status is related to their combat strength.
For example, the Twelve Marquises are all at the Peak Ninth Grade.
That is, the highest combat strength of the human race.
And that former king...
The fact that she could become a queen only shows that her realm was higher than that of the Twelve Marquises.
Divine Venerable?
Li Yang already knew that above the Grandmaster, there was also the Divine Venerable Realm.
He Song nodded and said, "That's right, that person is at the Divine Venerable Realm."
He added, "None of the Twelve Marquises have been able to advance to the Divine Venerable Realm, which is why our Huaxia has never produced a second king."
These are too far removed from students majoring in the Agronomy Department.
Li Yang was just listening casually.
However, a thought flashed through her mind: Why can't the human race, with so many Peak Ninth Grade, break through to the Divine Venerable Realm?
But then she thought of her teacher...
Even for a teacher, becoming Ninth-Grade Supreme is so difficult...
It's estimated that it will be even more difficult to go from the Peak Ninth Grade to the Divine Venerable Realm.

Registration and reporting are very simple.
As Li Yang was registering his name, the staff member in charge of registration suddenly looked up and said, "Marquis of Mirror Bamboo instructed that after Star Master reports for duty, the key to the Nature Pavilion will be given to you."
Upon hearing the words "Nature Pavilion," Li Yang perked up and replied, "Thank you for your trouble."
The staff seemed quite curious about Li Yang, looking her up and down for a while before handing Li Yang a green sign.
The sign is about two fingers wide, slender and long, and is a lustrous emerald green. On it are two words written in flowing script: Nature.
"Is this the key to the Nature Pavilion?"
Please keep this safe, as there is no backup if it is lost.
Li Yang: "!"
She quickly put the jade pendant into her backpack and then instructed her in her Spirit Sea, "Lianlian, I'm entrusting this to you for safekeeping."
[Lifespan +100 years.]
Lianxin's voice echoed in her Spirit Sea: "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I will definitely keep it safe!"
The others were also curious and asked, "Senior Brother He, where is Nature Pavilion? Have you been there? Shall we go there now?"
He Song looked puzzled, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Um... let's go accept a training mission first."
Every Star Wielders at the Third Grade Realm must regularly accept training missions.
These tasks not only help them improve their cultivation level, but are also their duties as Star Wielders of Huaxia.
Safeguarding Huaxia is everyone's responsibility.
Third Grade Realm is already a mature Star Wielders and must shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting Huaxia.
Everyone understood this and nodded in agreement, "Okay!"
Zhong Kun whispered, "I heard you can pay to complete a quest."
Yu Hongyuan: "???"
Lin Zhaoqin said disdainfully, "Have some decency, Kunzi."
Zhong Kun said, "So what if it's spending money? It's all supporting Huaxia!"
"You're not one of those people who are good at business!"
"Why not? We're in the Agronomy Department. Isn't it all about farming, selling crops, and making a lot of money?"
Lin Zhaoqin: "..." He was truly speechless after being retorted by him.
Li Yang asked, "How do I pay to complete the quest?"
He Song explained, "It's compliant with regulations. Normally, a training mission will offer a small reward, but if you don't have time to complete it, you can directly submit 2000 merit points to skip the mission."
Li Yang: "..." He actually wants 2,000 merit points, and he's asking for 20 million right off the bat. No wonder he's from the Astral Realm.
He Song continued, "For example, those specializing in the Pill Department and Weapon Forging Department are mostly not good at completing combat-oriented training missions. In this case, they can pay to skip them."
Simply put, the development paths of those Star Wielders are incredibly diverse.
Some people are good at fighting, some are good at making money.
Both fighting and making money are essential.
Therefore, these fixed training tasks can also be skipped by paying money.
However, the amount of 2,000 merits is truly staggering.
But then I thought about it again, and it didn't seem like a big deal, considering that the tuition at the Zhongdu Military Academy had skyrocketed to 2,000 merits a year.
He Song added, "The training mission is once a month. If you fail to complete it and don't have the money to skip it, you will lose the protection of the main city and be forcibly thrown into the Astral Realm."
Yu Hongyuan was horrified and asked, "Isn't this the Astral Realm? How could we be thrown into the Astral Realm?"
