Zi zi zi...

Even with the support of Yin Yang Qi, the firepower of the Eight Trigrams Furnace still scorched the arm of the Celestial Erosion Monarch.

However, the Celestial Erosion Monarch didn’t care about this minor injury but focused all his attention on the Soul Jade in his hand.

The moment he got hold of the Soul Jade, the Celestial Erosion Monarch once again felt that seemingly omnipotent sensation.

And this time, it was without the interference of Gou Xing’s resentment.

The Celestial Erosion Monarch was clearly aware that the wishes he had made would no longer be fulfilled in a wrong manner.

But on the other hand, without the Divine Soul of Gou Xing, the power of the Soul Jade had significantly weakened.

Back in the Returning Void, even when facing numerous Divine Demon Remains while holding the Soul Jade, the Celestial Erosion Monarch never felt that he would lose.

But now, the Soul Jade had at most only half, or even less, of its original power. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Is it this guy?"

His eyes quickly focused on the faint bloodlight surrounding the Soul Jade.

The Celestial Erosion Monarch saw Huo Ji’s discontent; he was dividing the power of the Soul Jade in his own way.

After all, to speak truthfully, Huo Ji was the originally recognized master of this Soul Jade.

It was only because he felt the terror of the Soul Jade that Huo Ji voluntarily relinquished his claim to it.

However, trapped between life and death in the Eight Trigrams Furnace, Huo Ji had no choice.

He chose to return to the Soul Jade, leading to the series of events that unfolded.

"If you want to find other Soul Jades, he is the most crucial."

Li Boyang, who did not stop the Celestial Erosion Monarch’s actions, shrugged slightly as he spoke.

"Huo Ji is now the only remaining Guhuo Bird, the sole existence that can resonate with other Soul Jades."

"And I happen to know that there’s a Soul Jade in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range."

................................................................

Hundred Lands Mountain Range, Li Family Village, near the Mountain God Reservoir.

After five years of construction and expansion, many avant-garde building complexes have been added here.

Giving up on residential attributes entirely, it was built with the community as the focus.

Aside from dormitories, classrooms, and playgrounds, there are special wooden man stakes, water platforms, and simulated mountainous swamp environments.

Anyone who sees these buildings will immediately express their amazement.

But when they see that huge stele at the entrance, they will understand and show a slight smile.

Because it was the Enlightenment School that Li Boyang advocated for relocation five years ago.

Of course, it now has a more formal name—Hundred Lands Compulsory Education School.

Unlike the previous indifferent attitude, the Hundred Lands School now semi-compulsorily enrolls all school-age children from the mountain ranges.

This was Li Boyang’s first time using his prestige in this way.

Even secluded places like the Flying Heaven Stronghold have specially assigned Bronze Birds for transporting students.

With Bronze Birds in the sky, spider swarms on land, and Human-faced Fish in the water...

No matter where you are in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, there will always be corresponding beings that go there.

For those villages that are actually quite far and troublesome to travel back and forth, Li Boyang even directly lets their children board at the school.

This is also mandatory, and Li Boyang didn’t consult with them.

On one hand, given the current productivity and production level of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, there’s no need for children as extra labor to help the village.

On the other hand, it’s also because of the increasing number of third-eyed children born in recent years, this mandatory measure is to protect these inherently different children.

After five years of development, the entire Hundred Lands Mountain Range has understood Li Boyang’s stance.

Even if it means paying and subsidizing the school out of their own pocket.

The Prophet would never allow third-eyed children to wander outside, suffering hardships they shouldn’t endure at their age.

In fact, this is just the outside world’s perception of Li Boyang.

Li Boyang himself has a very clear definition; his actions aren’t just targeting the third-eyed children.

He wants to promote the progress and development of civilization throughout the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, so he implements compulsory education for all children.

It’s not just for the mountain people’s children or the half-blood of the Human God; in the future, he’ll even selectively recruit those Spirit Monsters.

To promote compulsory education to the fullest extent.

Li Boyang even rarely endorsed his name as the principal of this school.

The school’s area covers over a dozen square kilometers, nearly accounting for one-third of the Mountain God Reservoir.

To meet the needs of the Mythical Era, the school is mainly divided into three sections.

The first section caters specifically to children under ten, the Enlightenment School, consisting of classrooms, dormitories, office buildings, and playgrounds in a massive complex.

Here, the young children will receive uniform enlightenment education.

From language to writing, to the most basic politics, history, geography, and natural science education, these children at least need to know the kind of world they live in.

The second section focuses on children above ten and below thirteen, slightly more mature older kids.

Unlike the enlightenment education, these kids have already developed a certain self-control and have entered the fast-developing puberty.

Therefore, Breathing Technique and Perception Technique training has become mandatory subjects.

Additionally, they must specifically learn divination, talisman, array, alchemy, artifact refining, and related knowledge. They pursue deeper in their favorite fields based on their interests and strengths.

Especially those third-eyed children, they must learn to properly use their gifts at this stage.

This isn’t Li Boyang being biased; it’s just that those third-eyed children are indeed exceptionally talented.

They may not be very mature, but they are certainly precocious, with learning and deep-thinking abilities far beyond other children of the same age.

Three years later, when these children turn fourteen, becoming young men and women.

They will enter the specially designated real combat area of the school to practice the corresponding Five Elements Magic.

Li Boyang knows better than anyone the differences between this world and his past life, so he didn’t blindly copy his past life’s compulsory education.

This world is not peaceful; it’s full of conflicts everywhere.

So, the next three years, these youths must have enough skills to protect themselves even after leaving school.

Magic is only part of it; Li Boyang is generous even with divine powers.

The most crucial part is that they must learn how to survive in all kinds of harsh environments.

It’s a kind of near-military cooperation and individual soldier training, simulating various confrontations as a "graduation exam."

For this, Li Boyang specially invited some Ghost Gods from Yunmeng Marsh to act as the end-level bosses of various training projects.
