High Martial Arts Era

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Special Admission Qualification

Starry Sky Combat Network, personal space.

Li Yuan's conscious body had just returned. Suddenly, countless lights and shadows converged, forming the figure of a young girl dressed in ancient green attire.

"Defender Yuan, congratulations on being listed on the Blue Star Youth Ranking. Your status in the Starry Sky Combat Network has been elevated." The green-clad girl smiled slightly. "From today onwards, I am your exclusive AI customer service representative in the Starry Sky Combat Network, here to serve you fully. You may give me a name."

"Exclusive AI customer service?" Li Yuan was slightly taken aback.

In this era, AI intelligence is very advanced. As far as Li Yuan knew, usually only those who recharge a certain amount in the 'Starry Sky Combat Network' and purchase many additional services could get exclusive AI customer service.

Unexpectedly, being listed on this so-called Blue Star Youth Ranking also provided this benefit.

"Little Jade." Li Yuan said directly, naming her after his smart wristband.

"Little Jade is delighted to serve you." The green-clad girl bowed slightly, looking very pure.

"I want to see the Blue Star Youth Ranking and the ranking details," Li Yuan said directly.

"Yes." With a wave of her small green hand, a light screen projection appeared before Li Yuan.

It was filled with a lot of textual descriptions, images, and pictures.

Li Yuan quickly understood.

"The Blue Star Youth Ranking is compiled by the 'Starry Sky Combat Network'. Anyone who reaches 500 points in the Golden Tier is eligible to enter." Li Yuan pondered, "It's rumored that behind the Starry Sky Combat Network are the Seven Star Alliance, the Three Great Martial Temples, and major countries... It serves both to intensely hone martial artists' skills and to filter out martial arts geniuses."

Looking at it now, the rumors were true.

"The Blue Star Youth Ranking is purely about martial arts skills," Li Yuan nodded slightly. "Which makes sense, as the Starry Sky Combat Network's selection process barely consumes additional resources, making it very easy."

"If it had to consider both martial arts skills and physical aptitude... wouldn't that just be the college entrance exam?" Li Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Whether for the entirety of human civilization or a single country, every effort is made to identify tech talents and martial arts geniuses. The college entrance exam is the largest scale and most comprehensive evaluation method.

The Starry Sky Combat Network, on the other hand, is a single-category selection for martial arts skills.

"The Blue Star Youth Ranking covers the entire Blue Star, and the list is cleared every September 1st each year..." Li Yuan continued to review.

"Anyone who is under 18 years old by the deadline on September 1st each year is eligible to enter the next year's Blue Star Youth Ranking."

Li Yuan immediately understood that this so-called Blue Star Youth Ranking does not consist only of minors.

The oldest listed could be close to 19 years old.

For example, someone born on September 2nd.

But similarly, if someone is truly a martial arts genius, reaching 500 points in the Golden Tier at fourteen or fifteen, they could potentially be listed on the Blue Star Youth Ranking for four or five consecutive years.

"By this calculation, this session of the Blue Star Youth Ranking has been updated for less than a month?" Li Yuan thought, "In less than a month, 4,684 people have been listed?"

And this is just within Blue Star.

Looking at the human civilization across the seven major planets, how many would be listed?

By the time a year passes, by next August, how many more will be listed?

And this is just the martial arts geniuses emerging within Blue Star in one year.

"Those who can reach 500 points in the Golden Tier have martial arts skills not inferior to mine." Li Yuan shook his head slightly, "My martial arts skills in the First High School of Guan Mountain District are now considered unmatched."

"But looking at the world? It's not that impressive." Li Yuan calmed down.

He realized his own insignificance.

The world is indeed vast.

"However, the road is taken step by step. At least I've made it to the list." Li Yuan suddenly smiled, "In the entire Jiangbei Province, there are only 47 people including me, and most of them are probably high school sophomores and seniors."

Jiangbei Province has over a million high school seniors.

At least in terms of martial arts skills, Li Yuan has already reached the forefront of a million high school seniors.

A year ago, Li Yuan couldn't even dream of achieving such a feat.

After reviewing all the content.

"Rank rewards?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up as he focused on the final page.

——Rank Rewards (before turning 18 years old):

Reaching 500 points in the Golden Tier, rewards 50,000 Blue Star Coins.

Reaching the Meteor Star Tier, rewards 500,000 Blue Star Coins.

Reaching the Bright Moon Tier, rewards 20 million Blue Star Coins.

——Rank Rewards (ages 18 to 30):

Reaching the Meteor Star Tier, rewards 10,000 Blue Star Coins.

Reaching the Bright Moon Tier, rewards 200,000 Blue Star Coins.

Reaching the Eclipse Sun Tier: rewards 5 million Blue Star Coins.

...

"That's really amazing." Li Yuan murmured to himself, "A reward of 20 million Blue Star Coins?"

Twenty million!

An ordinary person would need to work for a hundred years to possibly earn that much.

But Li Yuan had to admit, the difficulty is indeed high, requiring one to reach the Bright Moon Tier before the age of 18.

If over 18, even if one reaches the Bright Moon Tier, the reward would only be 200,000 Blue Star Coins.

"Not to mention the Bright Moon Tier, even reaching the Meteor Star Tier before the age of 18 would be difficult." Li Yuan shook his head, casually asking, "Little Jade, how many people on the Blue Star Youth Ranking have reached the Meteor Star Tier so far?"

"As of today, there are 44." The green-clad girl Xiao Yu said, "But the specific list cannot be disclosed."

Li Yuan nodded.

He had just tried to check and found that when viewing the rankings, he could only see general statistical data.

But the specific list? Who exactly is on the Blue Star Youth Ranking?

He couldn't find out.

"Perhaps this is a form of protection." Li Yuan thought, "In a sense, those who make it to the list are future martial arts masters, but they haven't fully grown yet."

Though a lot of information could also be found through various national school exam results, college entrance exam results, etc., the difficulty of collecting information is clearly not on the same level.

"Rewards." Li Yuan looked at the three segment rewards on the page, deep in thought.

"The Bright Moon Tier? That's too far and unrealistic."

"But the Meteor Star Tier?"

"My birthday is on August 29th, so I have about eleven months to hone my martial arts skills."

"Even if I can't reach it before the college entrance exam, it doesn't matter, I can continue to work hard after."

"As long as I reach the Meteor Star Tier, I'll get a reward of 500,000 Blue Star Coins." Li Yuan set his goal in mind.

He was filled with anticipation and motivation.

Because this was a goal that he truly had hope of achieving.

As long as he reaches 1000 points in the Golden Tier and then passes the promotion competition, he can become a Meteor Star Tier.

"Let's try a few more matches." Li Yuan couldn't help but click on 'Ranked Match'.

Six minutes later.

"Lose!"

"Lose!"

"Lose three matches in a row, all against experts with over 600 points, and I lost every time." Li Yuan returned to his personal space, feeling quite helpless.

Not only did he not gain points, but he also fell back to 491 points.

Li Yuan calmed down.

"It seems that 500 points is indeed a threshold. With my strength, my win rate against those below 500 points is over 80%." Li Yuan reflected on today's battles, "But against experts with over 500 points, especially those with over 600 points, my win rate is less than 30%."

"This shows that my martial arts skills are far from dominating the Golden Tier."

Trying to reach the Meteor Star Tier without being nearly invincible in the Golden Tier?

That's basically a pipe dream.

Each segment in the Starry Sky Combat Network has a huge gap, almost insurmountable.

"Little Jade, my points dropped below 500, does that affect my eligibility for the reward?" Li Yuan asked.

"It doesn't."

"The Blue Star Coin reward is based on the highest historical achievement." The green-clad girl smiled, "The 50,000 Blue Star Coin reward will be directly transferred to your bank account after a unified review on Monday."

"Great." Li Yuan nodded.

The Starry Sky Combat Network, as the number one virtual network game with official backing, was trustworthy.

"Exit." Li Yuan moved his consciousness.

He left the virtual network.

...

Walking out of his room.

"Brother, come eat some apples, I've cut them for you." His sister Li Qianqian called from the sofa.

"Okay." Li Yuan smiled, "Watching something? What show is this?"

"Brother, it's not a drama, it's a documentary, 'Exploring the Luo Bu Sea Star Realm', about our country's first explorer entering the Luo Bu Sea..." His younger brother Li Muhua explained, reciting it all by heart.

"Oh?" Li Yuan nodded, sitting down, eating apples while watching the documentary with his younger brother and sister.

The interior of the star realm is very special, with many technological devices rendered useless.

Combined with numerous rampant star realm creatures, it's extremely dangerous... Over the past few decades, human civilization has been fighting continuously, but there is still limited information and imagery about the deep star realm.

"These explorers are all martial artists, effortlessly leaping up cliffs tens of meters high." Li Muhua couldn't help but say.

"Without martial artist strength, daring to venture into the star realm would be seeking death?" Li Yuan laughed, "Besides, they are not ordinary martial artists."

At least, their physical fitness must exceed level 20!

...

After watching the documentary for half an hour, their aunt came out of the main bedroom and urged them to sleep.

After washing up, Li Yuan returned to his room.

He didn't rush to tell his aunt about reaching 500 points in the Golden Tier.

"I'll wait until the money is actually in the account." Li Yuan stood barefoot in his room.

"I spent the whole day in the virtual network today."

"The basic cultivation methods cannot be neglected."

"First, I'll practice 'Rock Solid Cultivation Method' for two hours, then 'Great Sun Starry Sky Sutra'." Li Yuan quickly made his decision.

For Li Yuan, being able to eat some snacks and watch TV shows with his siblings was a rare relaxation.

Martial arts cultivation has no shortcuts.

It is a day-to-day accumulation.

...

Late at night.

When Li Yuan got up at around three o'clock, quietly leaving home to head to school.

In Jiangbei Province, at the Martial Arts Hall.

The intelligent system and staff on duty had received an inconspicuous file waiting for review.

"Blue Star Youth Ranking 2042-2043 period, ranked number [4684] on the list, name 'Li Yuan', registered in 'Jiangcheng, Guanshan District, Jiangbei Province'... Please conduct a comprehensive assessment within ten days to confirm if the individual is eligible for martial arts special admission."
