Pretending to be a genius starts with the civilization advancement assessment.

Chapter 102 Star Spiral Third Order, Ignored Relationship Information

"Yes, Master!" Xingyu waved her hand, and the content on the virtual screen quickly switched.

A simple yet information-rich list is presented:

Current total points: 4323000

The last two are new milestones highlighted by Xingyu.

5. Milestone: The Light of Civilization (Purple)

6. Milestone: Heart of the Rules (Gold)

Conditions for achievement: Be the first to raise the level of understanding of the basic rules of a single universe to more than 10% during the civilization assessment period, and the time taken is in the top 0.001% of the assessment ranking of civilizations of the same level.

Effect: 1000000 bonus points, permanently increasing personal points coefficient by 0.5.

Irelia looked at the list carefully, especially the last two newly activated purple and gold milestones.

“【Light of Civilization】. 【Heart of Rules】.” She murmured these two names, a look of understanding in her eyes.

"I see. The [Heart of Rules] corresponds to Lin Yi officially mastering the Star-level rule power. And the [Light of Civilization]..."

Irelia recalled the opening ceremony she had just witnessed: Lin Yi's resolute performance in the video, the awe-inspiring demonstration of the power of the rules that shocked the various delegations, the extremely high public praise given to Li Zhenguo on behalf of the civilization's leadership, and the nationwide morale boost.
"He truly deserves this praise. Single-handedly, he greatly boosted the confidence and potential fighting power of the entire civilization."

These two milestones, especially the golden [Heart of Rules], offer terrifying point rewards, directly granting one million points, plus a coefficient increase of up to 0.5. No wonder his points instantly skyrocketed to over four million, allowing him to directly enter the Level 3 rating.

Moreover, Lin Yi's personal points coefficient has also increased to an astonishing 2.2!

This means that any base points he earns in the future will receive a double bonus, and this advantage will snowball.

Irelia stared at Lin Yi's data on the screen and remained silent for a moment.

White, green, blue, purple, gold. In a short period of time, he has achieved milestones in five colors.

Irelia's gaze lingered on the screen, where her personal score coefficient was as high as 2.2 and her total score exceeded four million. She was filled with astonishment.

"Such a high coefficient. And, given his growth rate and style of doing things, it is foreseeable that he will trigger more and higher-level personal milestones in the future."

Irelia thought to herself, "Given the extraordinary talent she has displayed, as long as she doesn't unexpectedly perish along the way, achieving a level 7 personal rating is almost a certainty."

After all, she already had a general understanding of the implicit requirements for the seven-level personal assessment in the human civilization advancement assessment system.

That usually means that this person is not only the undisputed pioneer and leader of the civilization during the assessment period, but also represents that he or she has enormous potential to reach at least the star field level.

Irelia has also discovered that although the human race's assessment system seems to place particular emphasis on soft indicators such as spiritual core and civilized responsibility, the requirements for individual hard power have never been relaxed.

This is not hard to understand. Because too many originally wise leaders will do extremely crazy things when they are about to die.

Therefore, without sufficient strength and a long lifespan, how can one better lead a civilization forward in the universe?
After all, even eternal gods or even greater beings cannot reverse natural death caused by the exhaustion of their lifespan—that is the complete obliteration at the level of the soul's origin, the ultimate limit that even gods cannot interfere with or reshape.

Thinking about this, an idea suddenly flashed through Irelia's mind.

She immediately sat up straight. "Xingyu, immediately seal up all resources in the spaceship's storage facility that can be used to enhance your understanding of rules and your cultivation of source energy!"

The aura around Xingyu flickered noticeably, seemingly extremely surprised and confused by the command.
"Master? All of them? You don't need to continue cultivating? These resources might be able to help you break through the bottleneck of the Star Domain level."

"And the list also includes 'Clear Radiance Dew,' isn't that prepared for His Majesty Xu Chen?"

Upon hearing this, Irelia smiled faintly.

"Practice?"

She gently shook her head. "I have been stuck at the ninth level of the Star Swirl level for over a thousand years. It seems like I am only a hair's breadth away from the Star Domain level, but in reality, it is far beyond my reach. I know myself that what I lack cannot be made up for by these external resources."

"Those things had a negligible effect on improving my understanding of the rules and breaking through the barriers of higher realms; they were mostly just psychological comfort."

Her gaze fell upon the vast starry sky outside the porthole. "These wonderful things, instead of letting them go to waste in the hands of a 'mediocre' like me, why not leave them to someone more suitable and in need of them? Perhaps in their hands, they can truly realize their greatest value."

As for the Clear Dew.
Irelia smiled, a hint of teasing in her voice, "In the eyes of a great being like His Majesty Xuchen, this Qinghui Dew is probably just a world-level beverage. The only thing worth mentioning is that its taste is rather unique."

"I think that with Your Majesty's magnanimity and high level of understanding, you would not mind if I gave this little thing to such an outstanding junior among their human race, would you?"

Xingyu was silent for a moment, and finally, she solemnly replied, "Yes, Master."

Irelia nodded in satisfaction, feeling as if a heavy weight had been lifted from her heart, and a new flame had been ignited within her.

She knew it would be a huge gamble, but she had more faith in her own judgment.

Blue Star, Crane Deer City.

After seeing off Chief Li Zhenguo, Lin Yi, Nie Chang, Liu Qiying, and others returned to the Dongfeng Training Camp.

After completing the preparatory work for the Dongfeng Training Camp, Nie Chang and Liu Qiying also stayed on as instructors for the training camp.

Because the training program of the intensive camp does not only focus on source energy cultivation.

These trainees are being trained as core members to resist future tides and lead the revival of civilization, and the curriculum is extremely comprehensive.

In addition to core energy guidance techniques and combat skills training, it also includes strategy and tactics, analysis of the ecology and weaknesses of abyssal beasts, and knowledge of modern military equipment.

After all, military students only make up a portion of the students, and many talented individuals from civilian backgrounds are not familiar with this.

For a long time to come, modern firearms will remain an important means of combating the Abyss Tide, especially in eliminating low- to mid-level Abyss Beasts.

Source energy practitioners must understand the performance, limitations, and tactical applications of these weapons in order to effectively coordinate with conventional forces on future battlefields and achieve combat effectiveness that goes beyond simple superposition.

On the way back to the camp, Liu Qiying glanced at the time and reminded him, "Chief Instructor Lin, according to the training syllabus, the first formal class this afternoon is 'In-depth Explanation of Basic Theory and Guiding Techniques of Energy Source' for all trainees, which you will personally teach. It will be at 2 PM in the central classroom."

Lin Yi nodded, indicating that he understood: "Okay, I will be there on time."

Amidst the respectful and enthusiastic greetings of "Hello, Chief Instructor Lin!" from the trainees along the way, Lin Yi returned to the private instructor's dormitory prepared for him within the camp.

The room was simply furnished but clean, and all the basic living facilities were provided.

He closed the door, and instead of immediately starting his meditation as usual, he simply leaned back and lay down on the bed, putting his hands behind his head.

He closed his eyes, but did not fall asleep. Instead, he allowed the Ninefold Origin Method to slowly circulate within his body, absorbing the pure source energy in the air, which was much more concentrated than outside, to replenish the power consumed in demonstrating the rules earlier.

At the same time, his brain was working at high speed, and he was re-examining his original plans for future development.

Yes, after that unexpected epiphany at the opening ceremony, Lin Yi clearly realized that he had to adjust his previous plans.

This is also the most important reason why he didn't hesitate to directly demonstrate his understanding of the rules at the initial Star Vortex level.

Because this epiphany brought him far more than he could outwardly show.

It directly boosted his understanding of the metal element rules from 12%, which was just the threshold of the Star Swirl level, to 31%.

This means that his strength at the rule level has firmly entered the third stage of the Star Vortex.

More importantly, it led him to discover a crucial piece of information that he had subconsciously overlooked.
