The Fishmen population didn’t even need mentioning, it tripled directly, the total number skyrocketing from over twenty-seven thousand to now over eighty-four thousand.

And with the base number of small Fishmen becoming increasingly large, their growth rate would continue to increase even without the use of Breeding Cards. Besides that, the number of Wise Goblins also saw a significant increase under his forceful intervention. Although Wise Goblins’ abilities in housekeeping and reproduction couldn’t compare to the Fishmen, with all sorts of breeding enhancements factored in, the total number reached around eight thousand, surpassing the Supreme Naga.

Overall, subtracting the Fire Elements from the Flame Divine Region and Water Elements from the Water Divine Region, and the not-so-abundant Wind and Earth Elements from the Wind Elemental Divine Region and Earth Element Domain, the total number of the Clan within Lin Xiao’s God’s realm had now broken through the hundred thousand milestone.

Indeed, the enhancements from Breeding Cards were ineffective on elemental creatures.

Not only are elements not actual creatures, but the birth of an element isn’t about breeding at all; it happens naturally through the convergence of elemental energies or by elemental fission-unrelated to reproduction.

In addition to this, Lin Xiao used eleven Mythical Quality Cards on the school’s internal trading platform to trade for a total of forty-three Elemental Cards, excluding the Fire Element, with qualities ranging between Whiteboard and Golden Mythical Quality.

He then fused these three types of Elemental Cards into three Ancient Quality Summoning Cards, each loaded into one of the three subsidiary Divine Domains surrounding the Main Divine Realm, specifically the Water Element Domain, the Air Element Domain, and the Earth Element Domain.

Although the quality of these three cards couldn’t compare with the Flame Melt Sea Card, inside were generous numbers of the three types of elements, including several super-sized elements that had reached Rank 6, and thousands of large, medium, and small elements. They could barely support the structure of the three Elemental Divine Domains.

Moreover, the territories of the three Elemental Divine Domains were established. As the numbers of elements within these Domains increased to a certain level, it would naturally lead to the crystallization of enough authority to give birth to Lords.

In other words, before long, as the environment inside the three Divine Domains was completely transformed by the elements into something akin to the Elemental Plane, Lords would be born naturally. As for who would emerge, unless Lin Xiao interfered, it would typically be the competition among the strongest few super-sized elements to decide.

Lin Xiao didn’t interfere in this matter, letting them compete amongst themselves, and the winner would receive a bit of Divinity from him.

Alright, the main reason was that he now only had two points of Divinity left in his hands. All other Divinity had been exhausted over these thirty years—used up without the help of the Creation Rubik’s Cube. He refined those few points of Divinity by forcefully eradicating the remnants of will and spiritual Branding, purely through his own efforts.

Besides that, not long ago Lin Xiao spent two hundred million Faith value to fully crystalize those two unformed points of Divinity. At this stage, Lin Xiao had a full fifteen points of Divinity, catching up to the first tier in the class.

Hmm, I’m still thirty points of Divinity short of catching up to that person!”

As his Divinity increased, Lin Xiao felt more acutely the impressive nature of that Wu someone he encountered at Summer Camp, who had amassed over twenty points of Divinity while just in the first year of high school, truly formidable.

The key point was that this individual didn’t use the Creation Rubik’s Cube’s cheat; every point of Divinity was ground out on their own, which was quite terrifying.

If it weren’t for using the Creation Rubik’s Cube cheat, he wouldn’t have had the confidence to catch up.

As of now, Lin Xiao only had two points of Divinity left to bestow upon his subordinates, one card slot remaining, and two Mythical Quality five-star cards. The resources obtained from the Summer Camp were almost depleted.

Even the fragments of the Divine Kingdom from the God’s Tomb had fused more than half after almost two months. As the process advanced, the speed of fusion accelerated, and now the area of his Main Divine Realm had expanded from the initial eight kilometers in length and five kilometers in width to a colossal rectangle with one hundred kilometers in length and fifty in width. In addition to this, there were six subsidiary Divine Domains outside his own. Initially, the Fire Element Domain and the Water Element Domain were the largest, but after the four Elemental Domains were established, the sizes of the other Domains drew close, now all approximately ten kilometers in length and width of large Divine Domain spaces, bigger even than the Main Divine Realm before Lin Xiao inherited Major General Keri’s legacy.

Lin Xiao anticipated that after fusing all the remaining Divine Kingdom fragments, the overall area of the Divine Domain could increase by about a third more.

This added area, he planned to allocate entirely to the two subsidiary Divine Domains above and below.

Now the Main Divine Realm and the four Elemental Divine Domains were large enough. His Divine Domain area was unmatched at the high school stage, except for a few top-tier seniors. The area of most senior students’ Divine Domains wasn’t comparable to his at this stage, totally sufficient.

He planned to enlarge the Divine Domain space named Heaven above and the one named Netherworld below.

In the future, the Main Divine Realm would be where all members of his Clan lived, while the upper layer, Heaven Divine Domain space, would be reserved for his Church’s placement to govern the entire Divine Domain.

The lower layer, the Netherworld, would be for accommodating beings unsuitable for other Divine Domain spaces, such as captives, Demons, and Undead subordinates, effectively a place of exile and collection of impurities within the entire Divine Domain.

With such formidable strength, Lin Xiao was full of confidence for the upcoming battles.

However…

You are lucky. This time, you will be facing the projections of the former students, meaning the current senior elite class when they were in their sophomore year. You will receive personal guidance from them, and I hope you seize the opportunity to learn from these seniors!”

The words of the instructor Zhu Hong left everyone dumbfounded.

“What the heck, the seniors’ own projections have descended?”

Indeed, that’s what it sounded like, and Lin Xiao looked up as a classmate beside him raised a hand and asked:

“Teacher, do you mean this time we need to face the real projections of the senior students from the elite class when they were juniors?”

The counselor turned around with a smile that they found somewhat terrifying: “Yes, your homeroom teacher has already spoken with the homeroom teacher of the senior elite class. This time we’re having an inter-grade collaboration. You’ll have a chance to witness the prowess of the previous seniors, and also…” She made a strange expression:

There’s a surprise this time, oh! Some lucky ones will receive personal guidance from the top ten seniors on the prestigious list of the senior section of the high school. An opportunity like this doesn’t come often!”

“I actually don’t want to witness the senior’s elegance!”

Lin Xiao scoffed and casually opened the school network to check the information of the seniors in the elite class from their junior year, especially the data of those two seniors in the top ten mentioned by the counselor. Soon, he was gaping in surprise.

Xiong Chumo: Female, class president of the elite class in her senior year at Radiance Second High, listed on the subsidiary of the Prodigy Ranking.

Cao Yichen: Male, vice president of the elite class in his senior year at Radiance Second High, listed on the subsidiary of the Unparalleled Ranking.

“Goodness, two major deities indeed!”

Whether it’s the subsidiary of the Prodigy Ranking or the Unparalleled Ranking, both are insurmountable for students like them, who can’t even make it onto the Outstanding Talent Ranking. This kind of luck…

“Can I pass this up…”

At this moment, the counselor added:

Considering the difficulty of this major class and the strength of the two seniors, this time the course will take place in a simulated battle format. Your Divine Realms will be projected onto a virtual plane where you’ll establish defenses with basic points and engage in combat against the projected Divine Realms of the seniors. Meanwhile, the two seniors will only demonstrate 50 to 80 percent of their strength. Any student who matches with the seniors and gains their approval will pass.”

Lin Xiao could feel the relief among his peers who might be matched with the two seniors. If that was the case, it would be manageable.

Fighting for real would cause significant damage to their Divine Realms, especially since the previous seniors were known to be very strong, even during their junior year. If the damage was too extensive, even ample time for recovery would feel terrible.

However, the concern over possible damage seemed trivial compared to the opportunity to interact with the two super seniors.

If defeating two individuals from the subsidiary rankings is out of the question, just earning their recognition would be much easier.

Moreover, if the difference in strength was too great, they could try flattering the seniors and perhaps charm their way through the challenge.

“For this major class, all who pass will receive one Divinity Card, two Divine Realm Cards, and the top ten with the highest evaluations will each receive a Standard Lightning Tower Construction Drawing. The lucky ones who receive an outstanding assessment from the two seniors will get four completed Lightning Spires in addition to the existing rewards.”

“Alright, now you can go prepare. The invasion will begin in five days.”

The students began entering their Divine Realms as their tongues wagged about the situation, leaving only the homeroom teacher and the counselor behind in the classroom.

Jin Sisi stretched out her hand, and a screen automatically popped open in front of her, displaying virtual avatars of all the students in the class. Each avatar was encircled by a ring of light in different colors: Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, and Gold.

Her gaze swept over the virtual avatars surrounded by a ring of Gold in the center, her finger lightly tapping on two of them.

The counselor, Zhu Hong, looking like a small giant beside her, asked after seeing the avatar that represented Lin Xiao:

“Is it fair to put such a heavy burden on him…”

She stopped mid-sentence, her expression becoming odd as Jin Sisi emotionlessly tapped each of the dozen or so Gold-tier student avatars in the center, illuminating them all. Then she pulled over the avatar of a beautiful girl wearing a half jade mask, exuding a fierce temperament.

Zhu Hong twitched the corner of her mouth, wanting to say something but held back.

Jin Sisi, sensing the reaction, muttered as if to explain:

“I said there would be lucky individuals guided by two seniors, but I didn’t say there would be only two lucky individuals.”

Zhu Hong silently mourned for the dozen students rated at the Gold tier for a second, raising her thick, child-sized arm and giving a thumbs-up:

“You’re the boss, you call the shots.”

Inside the Divine Realm, Lin Xiao first reviewed the principle of the so-called simulation invasion and quickly gathered all the Clan members who could fight, including the Wise Goblins.

This time, it’s a simulated projection battle, meaning that he will choose Clan members to be projected onto a plane, and then each person will have a certain number of Creation points with which to alter the plane
