I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 321 Standards Announced, a New Era Begins
"First, physical fitness."

“Physical fitness isn’t just one thing, it’s divided into multiple categories.”

"These include endurance, nerve reaction, strength, speed, and body organ function."

"The full score of the physical exam is 600 points. The first four items are worth 100 points, and the body organ function test is worth 200 points."

These were all set by Director Wang based on Xia Yuan's original physical fitness test.

In fact, it is not much different from ordinary physical examination.

But the key point here is that there is an additional function of the body organ.

The reason why this item has a higher score is because body function is the foundation of everything.

A normal person's physical functions reach their peak around the age of 30, and then begin to gradually decline.

Therefore, the most suitable age for cultivation is around 30 years old.

Of course, this only refers to physical fitness.

Next, Xie Xuan continued:

"The second item is a test of willpower, and the full score for this test is also 500 points."

what?
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone started talking.

"No way, the whole physical test only scored 600 points, but the willpower test alone scored 500 points? 】

[In other words, even if one's physical fitness isn't good enough, but one's willpower is strong enough, can one still turn the tables by relying on their willpower points?]

[What the hell are you dreaming of? Didn't you hear what Minister Xie just said? Every single item must meet the minimum requirement. Even if you have perfect willpower, it's meaningless if you fail even one physical test.]

If the physical test is more friendly to young people, then the willpower test is more friendly to older people.

Those who are a little older, as long as they can pass the physical fitness test, will eventually have a chance to turn the tide.

This way, almost everyone has a chance.

"Now, let me announce the last project."

When he said this, Xie Xuan paused for a moment before continuing:

“This is a test of knowledge and intelligence.”

【? ? ? 】

Knowledge intelligence test?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

The first two tests were actually expected by everyone, but not many people could have thought of this last one.

Isn’t this just a cultural course?

No, why do extraordinary people need to study cultural subjects?
In fact, the intelligence test was also a decision Xie Xuan made with Xia Yuan two days ago after listening to Xia Yuan's words.

Although there are some places reserved for those who have made outstanding contributions in the academic field, ordinary practitioners cannot have poor intelligence.

Although this item is not required in the Body Tempering Realm, subsequent training requires more than just willpower.

Without sufficient insight and understanding, one can only be an ordinary extraordinary person.

Not only will this have no effect on Xia Yuan, it is also not a good thing for the development of the entire extraordinary path.

At present, what humans need are all-round talents.

So, they finally added the intelligence test taker item.

"As for the score for this item, the full score is 200 points."

Many people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that it was only 200 points.

If the academic scores are up to standard, then the scores of other subjects only need to be high enough, and the gap should not be that big.

I just don't know what the minimum requirement is!
Without letting everyone wait too long, Xie Xuan announced the result directly.

"For all test items, the minimum score must not be less than 80 percent."

"If any score is below 80%, all scores will be invalidated."

isn't it?
Upon hearing this request, countless people around the world wailed.

Originally they thought they might have some chances, but now after hearing that the minimum required was 80%, almost most people gave up hope.

It would be too difficult to achieve 80% for all of them!

Especially those who think they have excellent physical fitness and strong willpower.

These people are undoubtedly the most miserable.

Because even if they have achieved high scores in all the previous projects, if their cultural subjects do not reach 160 points, it also means losing the opportunity to compete.

Even if their total score is higher, it is meaningless.

[I protest. I seriously suspect this is smuggling in private goods.]

[Yes, I went there to become a transcendent, not to study.]

[Wow, please give me another chance! I will study hard in the future.]

Countless people wailed and regretted not studying hard.

I didn't expect that becoming a superhuman would lead to such a thing. It's really unbearable.

Isn't this a disguised way of getting all of them to start learning?

Qu Yuchen is one of them.

His face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

It has been so long since I last studied, but now I have to pick it up again.

He didn't even know what that extraordinary person was thinking.

Jiuzhou Management Department and Xia Yuan naturally ignored the protests of the crowd.

Cultural studies are required.

This is the only way to promote the healthy development of mankind.

As for missing out on a few geniuses, it doesn’t matter.

With such a huge human population, the thing that is most lacking is genius.

What's more, we only recruit 20 students a year, so there are definitely plenty of people who meet the requirements.

In the early stage, it is enough to just screen out the best talents!

"These are all the test items. We will announce the specific test methods as soon as possible after the live broadcast."

"Rest assured, these tests will not begin immediately."

"The official testing period will begin on October 10st of next year and will last until December 1st."

"So, everyone has plenty of time to prepare."

Hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

It is May 1st now, and there is still nearly a year and a half until next November's issue.

And this one and a half years is enough to change a lot of things.

Many people with poor physical fitness can also take advantage of this period to exercise.

People with poor academic performance can also use this time to study.

The universe is uncertain, you and I are both dark horses!
"Then the above is the entire test content. Now I will talk about the specific quota allocation."

This issue can be said to be what everyone is most concerned about.

The number of places determines whether they have a chance to be selected.

So everyone held their breath at this moment.

"There are a total of 200 finalists for this selection, of which Jiuzhou occupies 90, and the remaining forces occupy the other 110."

"However, these two hundred selected people will still have to undergo a final test."

"The final test will be conducted by the great being who created the path to transcendence. He will personally conduct the final test on the 200 of you."

"Out of 200 people, only 20 will ultimately pass." "That means 9 people from Jiuzhou and 11 people from other forces will ultimately qualify to embark on the path to transcendence."

[No way, are there so few places? ]

Twenty places are undoubtedly a bit too few.

You have to know that there are more than one billion people in Jiuzhou alone, and the world has a population of nearly 10 billion.

With such a huge base, only 20 people were selected. The probability is not even one in a billion.

Perhaps guessing everyone's reaction, Xie Xuan continued:
"Due to some unknown reason, which is what the Minister mentioned earlier as the influence of the Dharma Ending Age, there is very little source energy on Earth now."

"The two biggest challenges we face in becoming extraordinary beings are awakening and source energy."

"You should know that that great being didn't have to use these resources. He didn't need to do this at all, because the source energy is now used as little as possible."

"So, being able to offer 20 places is already the limit!"

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out.

Many people fell silent.

They asked themselves, if resources are very limited, who would be willing to use them to help unrelated people?

Almost most people will choose to use it themselves.

Moreover, since the other party is already so powerful, it is impossible for them to be coerced in any way.

Being able to set aside a portion to help the human race is already a very rare thing!

"But, isn't that person from our Jiuzhou? Why are we giving these places to other factions?"

Some people were still muttering quietly.

"Are you an idiot? Can other factions just sit back and watch us, Jiuzhou, train extraordinary people?"

If we don't do this, do you believe that we in Jiuzhou will be retaliated against by all forces immediately? You should be able to imagine the consequences.

Anyone with a normal mind would not say such a thing.

[That's right, Jiuzhou has taken up almost half of the quota. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?]

In fact, there are still quite a few people who understand.

If you want to eat alone, it is impossible unless you really have the strength to completely ignore everything.

Although there are only 20 spots available, two hundred people will be able to get up close and personal with the extraordinary ancestor. This is already something everyone envies!

After the two ministers and Li Qingxuan's praise of Xia Yuan just now, his image in people's minds has now risen to an extremely high level.

In the eyes of many people, it is a great honor to be able to have close contact with the extraordinary ancestor!

Even if you are not selected in the end, it’s not a loss.

After finishing the explanation, Xie Xuan continued:
"Don't worry, there will be more than one chance to be selected. There will be such a selection every year in the future."

Sure enough, this statement gave many people renewed hope.

If it doesn’t work this year, isn’t there still hope next year or the year after?

Even if you can't do it yourself, your descendants still have hope.

"Finally, let me discuss the allocation of the 90 quotas for Jiuzhou."

"The 90 places will eventually be evenly distributed to each continent, which means the top ten in each continent will have the opportunity to participate in the final selection."

"As for the specific testing locations, we will set up one in each major city."

"Before participating in the test, you only need to upload your identity information to the special website we have built later, and then register on the website to obtain the qualification to participate."

"The specific registration period is from August 8st to September 1st every year."

"As long as you are between 15 and 80 years old, you can take the test unconditionally. No one can stop you."

"Once the test is complete, all the results will be released on December 12th, and everyone can check them on the website at that time."

"At the same time, we will also publish the results of the top 10,000 on the website so that everyone can have a clearer comparison."

"As for the final selected candidates, you will go to the academy to undergo the final test on January 1st."

The final test is actually a test of mental strength.

The concept of mental strength is rather vague, and there is currently no very accurate method of testing it.

So it was left to Xia Yuan himself.

Generally speaking, people with strong willpower will not have weak mental strength, so the mental strength of the two hundred people finally selected will definitely not be too weak.

As for the testing method, it is also relatively simple.

It depends on who can last longer under Xia Yuan's spiritual pressure. The 20 people who can hold out to the end among the first will pass.

"Okay, that's all I have to say."

“If you have any questions, you can check them on the website later.”

Regarding this website, Jiuzhou has united all the major forces to create it.

In order to create this website, it can be said that the world's top talents were mobilized.

Therefore, it can withstand billions of people browsing around the world at the same time without any lag.

The cost of producing this website alone is an astronomical figure.

"Then, the final time will be handed over to the creator of the extraordinary path."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience erupted in laughter, louder than ever before.

There is no one who doesn't want to see what this great being looks like.

[I really don't know how that great being blazed the trail to transcendence. It's truly astonishing!]

[That's right, creating a path to the heavens from nothing is something I dare not even imagine, and I can only dream of it.]

[No, buddy, who gave you the courage to dream like this? ]

【…】

After a moment, Xie Xuan disappeared from the camera.

The crowd also fell completely silent at this time.

Everyone held their breath, afraid of missing this once-in-a-lifetime moment.

They will witness an unprecedented great being appear before the world.

Xia Yuan didn't keep everyone waiting too long.

Just a dozen seconds later, a ball of fire appeared out of nowhere in the picture.

Then, the second and third flowers appeared one after another.
After a while.

Countless flames filled the entire screen, then slowly condensed into a human silhouette.

However, the person in front of the camera could not see Xia Yuan's appearance clearly, and could only see the constantly trembling flame.

[Is this a truly strong person? ]

The body turns into flames.

At this moment, Xia Yuan was like a king who controlled fire.

Perhaps, this is in line with people's imagination of the ancestor of the extraordinary.

Only such a strong person can be called the strongest extraordinary person.

However, many people still feel a little regretful that they cannot witness the true appearance of this great being.

The next moment, an extremely deep voice was heard.

This voice seemed to strike directly into everyone's soul.
"Hello everyone, you can call me 'Yuan'!"

　Thank you very much for voting for the monthly ticket yesterday.

　　Considering how hard I work, please give me some guaranteed monthly tickets!
