I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 322 A New Way of Recording Appears
Everyone couldn't help but remember this name firmly in their minds.

['Source', could it be that the resource that can aid cultivation mentioned earlier is named after this being?]

Someone's eyes flickered as he expressed his guess.

[It's normal, right? After all, this person is the creator of the Extraordinary Road, so it's not surprising to name it after him.]

Even many friends who were familiar with Xia Yuan did not think about him.

They also believed that the other party's name was the source word for source energy.

Except for a few people.

For example, Xie Zhijun.

When she heard the word Yuan, she immediately thought of Xia Yuan.

"It must be him."

Xie Zhijun stared at the flame on the screen and muttered to herself.

To be honest, even Xia Yuan had never thought that people would associate it with this.

But even if I knew, I would just shake my head and laugh.

A name is just a title, it doesn’t matter how you call it.

Everyone is looking forward to Xia Yuan's follow-up.

"After the explanations from Taoist Priest Li and Minister Xie just now, I believe everyone has a basic understanding of the Path of Transcendence, and also understands the predicament we are facing now."

"To be honest, the purpose of all this I'm doing isn't as great as Minister Xie said."

"Everything I do is to open up the path to transcendence further, and also to solve the problem of source energy depletion."

“If these two problems are not solved, I can only stop where I am now.”

"And my own strength alone is certainly not as great as the combined strength of all human civilization."

There was not much reaction from the crowd upon hearing this.

Although Xia Yuan's words were different from what Xie Xuan had said before, it did not affect Xia Yuan's impression in people's minds at all.

In other words, this kind of image is easier for people to accept.

After all, as long as one is a human being, he or she will have selfish desires.

Even saints are no exception.

Although Xia Yuan's starting point was for himself, he ultimately helped the entire human race.

that's enough!
A gentleman does not care about his deeds.

Countless years later, history will only record that he did this for the sake of humanity.

“When these problems are solved, not only me, but all of humanity will benefit.”

"As Minister Xie said earlier, we humans will enter a new era from now on."

"Everything in science fiction movies and myths and legends will no longer be fantasy; it will truly appear in the lives of each of us."

Xia Yuan smiled and continued:

"On the path to transcendence, I am just one step ahead of you, but that doesn't mean I am better than you."

"I firmly believe that in the future someone will create a technique even better than mine. Maybe you will even open up a path further ahead of me."

"The problems plaguing our human race right now may be solved by one of you in the future!"

"Come on, newcomers! The future belongs to you. I look forward to seeing you at the Transcendent Academy."

"I also very much hope to see that one of you will eventually surpass me and write a new chapter for yourselves and for humanity."

There is no doubt that Xia Yuan's speech had a very good effect.

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the world became excited.

Countless geniuses have a strong desire.

They want to become extraordinary people, want to solve problems that even the ancestor of extraordinary people cannot solve, and even surpass each other!

Once they are able to achieve any of these, their names will become an immortal monument and be recorded in history forever.

And maybe they can exist forever and become a living history.

All of this is attracting everyone.

After Xia Yuan left, the minister returned to the stage.

He briefly said a few words of summary.

Just when everyone thought it was about to end, he once again announced a piece of news that surprised many people.

"In addition to the above quotas, we will also set aside five additional quotas for scholars who have made outstanding contributions in the academic field."

"We will also announce the specific method of obtaining quotas on the official website later."

Can scholars in the academic field also get the opportunity to become extraordinary people?

These words were beyond everyone's expectations.

All major powers, including the United States, are completely unaware of this.

After all, Minister Xie just mentioned the difficulty of becoming a transcendent, and the physical fitness of those scholars is basically impossible to meet the requirements.

But at this time Jiuzhou said this.

Doesn't this mean that Jiuzhou or that extraordinary ancestor has the ability to help those people?
At this moment, the eyes of the US President and others flickered.

Originally they had ruled out the possibility of Mays being admitted early, but now everyone was certain of it.

Mays must be the one chosen by the extraordinary in advance.

Otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence.

And apart from him, other American scientists do not currently meet the criteria they had previously screened.

"Contact the people observing nearby quickly. Once Mace comes out of the lab, notify us immediately."

The US President quickly issued an order.

"Yes!"

……

Although this news surprised many people, it actually did not cause much of a sensation.

After all, only a small number of people can compete for these five places.

After all, this requirement requires people to have made great contributions in the academic field, and this alone can exclude more than 99% of people.

However, a small number of geniuses from top universities and those famous scientists were extremely excited.

However, what excited them most was not the opportunity to become extraordinary people, but the deeper meaning contained in these words.

Previously, they were worried that after the emergence of the extraordinary people, technology would be abandoned or stagnate.

But right now, that's not happening at all.

Even judging from the fact that becoming a superhuman currently requires cultural achievements and the news released by Jiuzhou, superhumans and technology are not in conflict, but are of great help to the development of science and technology.

Otherwise, Jiuzhou or the extraordinary ancestor would never make such a decision.

You should know that there are only 20 places in the normal screening, but now there are 5 of them just for their academics.

It's self-evident what this means.

Many scholars do have ideas about the path to transcendence, but they are undoubtedly more eager for scientific research.

If the emergence of the supernatural can promote scientific development, then the impact on mankind will undoubtedly be even greater.

Ultimately, supernatural powers can only be popularized by a few people. Even if the problems of the Dharma Ending Age are solved in the future, there will not be many people who can become strong.

But technology is different, it can truly help all of humanity!

“Humanity may really be entering a new era!”

Many scientists' eyes sparkled, and they couldn't wait to witness how supernormal technology could help advance science and technology!

"Okay, that's all the news for today. I hope everyone can contribute to the prosperity of the human race in the future."

“Finally, I have one more announcement to make.”

"Starting January 2026, , the human race's calendar system will officially change!" "The new calendar system is the Extraordinary Era!"

"The Earthly Calendar will completely become a thing of the past. The year 2026 will be the first year of the Transcendental Era."

Extraordinary era?

Everyone was moved by it.

The way human history has been recorded for thousands of years will be completely changed in just over a year.

That day was the day when the Extraordinary Academy was officially opened.

In fact, it was not Jiuzhou or even Xia Yuan who made this decision.

Rather, it is a resolution jointly proposed by all other forces during this period.

The reason they did this was that they wanted to completely tie Jiuzhou to the human community in this way.

Since the rise of Jiuzhou is unstoppable, let's tie all of humanity together.

Changing the way of dating is the best way.

A year and a half later, a new chapter in human history will officially begin.
……

After the meeting, those who aspired to become extraordinary people immediately began to prepare.

Even though there is still more than a year left, this time everyone in the world is competing for 20 places. If you don’t work hard, there is almost no hope.

Even those who think they have no hope of becoming extraordinary people also spur their relatives and friends.

After all, theoretically speaking, as long as the subjective conditions meet the requirements, it is possible to achieve the requirements through training.

So many people jumped in without any hesitation, especially young people between the ages of 20 and 40.

People with poor physical fitness should focus on finding ways to exercise.

People who stay up late for a long time begin to replenish their qi and blood and their bodies.

Those with poor academic performance began to cram for study.

In short, many people in the world are now starting to change themselves.

This has also led to a sharp rise in prices of many related items, and people with slower hand speeds simply cannot buy what they want.

The most sought-after items are undoubtedly supplements, and anything available on the market is sold out in an instant.

Therefore, many businesses make a lot of money from this.

Fortunately, Jiuzhou and all major forces have made sufficient preparations in advance.

There is basically no problem with the supply of basic living supplies, except that the prices have increased slightly.

But this phenomenon will not last more than a month and will slowly subside.

Only a few relatively precious medicinal materials are experiencing skyrocketing prices, and there is still a shortage of demand.

This thing has become the most popular thing now.

After all, the older people are, the worse their physical functions are, so many people buy them.

Even young people in their twenties had a lot of competition.

However, while some people work hard, others fail.

Many people still have a very clear understanding of themselves, and they don’t think they can compete with billions of people.

Such people exist everywhere, and there are quite a few of them.

No matter how the times change, as long as their lives are not affected, it doesn't matter.

In the meeting room of Jiuzhou Management Department.

"The allure of becoming a transcendent is too great. I didn't expect such a big change to happen in just a few hours."

"Now almost everyone has started to devote themselves to physical exercise and study!"

A minister couldn't help but sigh.

Such a change is unbelievable.

The Minister smiled and shook his head.

"This is just the beginning. Once we announce the specific testing requirements tomorrow, many people will immediately give up."

"And as time goes on, more and more people will give up."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else nodded.

"Yes, just in terms of physical fitness tests, to get an 80% score, you need to be at least a second-level athlete."

"And this is just barely meeting the requirements. With this score, there is absolutely no hope."

"But even so, I don't think many people can stick to it."

People nowadays are only enthusiastic for three minutes. Once the enthusiasm is over, at least 80% of them will give up one after another.

Extraordinary people are indeed very attractive, but the competition is too fierce!

When they know there is no hope, they will naturally not devote themselves to it anymore.

This is all about willpower!
There may be many people who have good physical fitness, but most of them will definitely fail in the willpower test.

“When the official test begins next year, we don’t know what kind of grand occasion it will be!”

……

At the same time, other forces with quotas have also issued statements one after another.

Even if there are only one or two spots available, those forces don't engage in any shady dealings when selecting people.

It still gives everyone the opportunity to participate.

In this matter, there is no internal decision, and it will arouse the public outrage of countless people.

Damn it, there are only a few places and you’ve already made the appointments. Who can tolerate this?
At best, they can only devote their full efforts to training a certain number of people.

As for whether they can be selected in the end, it depends on whether they are good enough.

Maybe there will be people among the people who are better than those trained by the government.

This is not impossible.

However, all the test contents are carried out according to what Xie Xuan had agreed before, and other forces have no right to make changes without permission.

After a while, a notice was issued on the newly established website.

The specific content and scoring standards for each test will be officially announced at 8:00 AM tomorrow.

The information on this website can be viewed by all forces in the world, so as soon as the news comes out, it will be known to everyone immediately.

Many top talents who were waiting were disappointed.

Originally they wanted to see how many points they could get in the exam, but they didn't expect to have to wait another night.

Just as all the major forces in the world began to prepare for the upcoming extraordinary era, Xia Yuan was leisurely drinking tea with Xie Xuan on Qingcheng Mountain.

"If the source energy problem can be completely solved in the future, I'm afraid the form of education will also change!"

Xie Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

After the supernatural becomes completely popular, it will definitely not be the same as it is now.

These test items will definitely be introduced into the classroom in due course.

After all, if there are only cultural subjects at that time, it will not be able to meet people's needs at all.

In order to form standards and ensure that no problems arise, these need to be planned in advance.

Xia Yuan curled his lips.

"Don't tell me these things. It's up to you to decide what to do."

"..."

Xie Xuan's expression froze. He wanted to ask Xia Yuan what he thought, but this guy didn't care at all.

"By the way, there has been some progress in the construction of the spacecraft!"
