Global Evolution: I Transplanted the Supreme Divine Heart-Chapter 452 - 449: Combat Academy

The surroundings were an illusory space, with bubbles gently floating around.

Bai Pu was enveloped in one of the bubbles. As he looked around, he saw vague silhouettes standing within the other bubbles as well.

"Are these the advanced Awakened I was matched with for the Professional Plane Trial? I wonder if anyone else is here for the Professional Plane Trial like me."

Bai Pu silently restrained his aura, aiming to keep a low profile.

Just like when he went for the Second Transformation in the world of the Flesh and Blood Plague: Mutation, Bai Pu was there for a transfer/trial, but for others, it might just be a normal Spirit Realm journey using a ticket.

The surrounding Awakened, the vast majority of them were advanced Awakened.

Advanced Awakened had certainly passed the Second Transformation and Professional Plane Trials. To be promoted to advanced, even if an Awakened is struggling, their priority would not be lower than the elite. Ordinary templates for advanced Awakened practically don’t exist anymore.

However, Bai Pu wanted to keep a low profile, but his high looks and high recognition made it impossible for him to hide.

Many Awakened noticed him.

Bai Pu sensed the gazes from all directions, some scrutinizing, some suspicious, and some filled with undisguised malice.

Tap, tap.

Suddenly, in front of Bai Pu, an awakened person with a slender figure, long arms, and legs gently tapped on the surface of a bubble with their finger.

Bai Pu’s gaze shifted over, and the slender awakened person bared their teeth in a smile, exuding a faint malice.

"Celestial Wolf!" Bai Pu was shocked.

This guy was listed on the Special Service Bureau’s intranet as a murderous S-level wanted criminal.

Behind Celestial Wolf, a few other awakened, who were on the same team, stood with arms crossed.

Among them was Xilou, an awakened Bai Pu had interacted with before.

Bai Pu let out a breath. It seemed he had some misalignment with the Superstar Alliance; whenever there was a trial or job transfer, Superstar Alliance people were bound to meddle.

But for Celestial Wolf and Xilou to be together, did they join the Star-Picking Tower?

Knowing he was being watched, Bai Pu simply stopped hiding and began to scrutinize the other Awakened one by one.

In doing so, Bai Pu found another one — Haotian!

Haotian met Bai Pu’s gaze and quickly looked away.

In the distance, a muscular man, almost bare-chested, was sitting cross-legged with his back to everyone else, seemingly uninterested in anyone else.

However, even with his back facing the group, this muscular man exerted a formidable pressure through the illusory bubbles and stagnant space, like a primordial giant beast resting.

"Goodness... Isn’t this senior Dai Sect, a candidate for the Power King?"

Bai Pu was startled.

Only now did he realize that his level had unconsciously approached that of Earth’s top-level Awakened.

As the light flickered, Bai Pu’s illusory bubble was the first to vanish, the stagnant state lifted.

Among this matched group of awakened, Bai Pu was the first batch to enter the Spirit Realm!

...

[Welcome to the world of Demon Fighting: Battle Academy, for your profession trial.]

[Would you like to spend 520 Spiritual Points to gain universal language proficiency for this plane, as well as attire and appearance adjustments?]

Bai Pu chose yes.

An invisible ripple flashed, and a stream of information flooded into his brain, temporarily giving Bai Pu fluency in [Demon Fighting World]’s universal language.

A scroll slowly unfurled before Bai Pu’s eyes.

[Demon Fighting: Battle Academy]

[Time: Late Third Epoch]

[Area: Twin Star Continent - Eastern Plains]

[Intensity: 5.2]

[Background: This is a world of Fighting Qi and Magic. The All Gods War of the Ancient Era has long been buried in the dust of history, but the ancient powers still slumber in the sacred relics, waiting for a fated person to awaken them. On the Twin Star Continent, the most peaceful and prosperous in the Demon Fighting World, lie two great academies of historical renown...]

As the sensation of weightlessness vanished, Bai Pu found himself standing on solid ground.

"The body seems somewhat heavy. Is this the intensity of the Advanced Spirit Realm?"

Bai Pu exerted force on the ground beneath his feet.

If it were Earth, this step would be enough to crack the ground, but in the world of Demon Fighting: Battle Academy, it merely left a shallow dent in the surface.

The air felt different too; as Bai Pu took steps and raised his hands, he felt the air resisting him like a thick liquid.

Nonetheless, Bai Pu, possessing a physique comparable to a Lord, quickly adapted to the new environment.

The prompt from Spirit Realm Will arrived timely:

[Awakened Gangxin, you will undergo a profession trial in the world of Demon Fighting: Battle Academy.]

[You have acquired the Trial Taker’s temporary skill: Inspiration Ball. Utilizing the Inspiration Ball allows you to instantly comprehend a complex professional energy cultivation method, but it disappears upon use.]

A bulb-like sphere appeared in Bai Pu’s mind; within its glow, complex symbols flowed, clearly indicating this was the "Inspiration Ball."

With the Inspiration Ball, the Awakened could quickly grasp a technique.

However, the Inspiration Ball could only be used once and vanished after use.

Therefore, obtaining a professional energy cultivation method, discerning it, and finding a suitable one is paramount.

[Since you have entered the Professional Plane through a Recruitment Order, you receive a privilege: Advanced Guide.]

[Advanced Guide: Passive. When you encounter a cultivation method, you will receive specific information regarding its rarity and compatibility. This passive ability will vanish after this profession trial ends.]

A vintage-looking tome resembling an encyclopedia appeared in Bai Pu’s mind.

"The Recruitment Order turned out to be beneficial. The Advanced Guide is pretty much a free advantage! Now to search for the place with the most Fighting Qi cultivation methods in this world... Garrison Warrior Academy!"

Bai Pu had gathered extensive western fantasy-style Spirit Realm data beforehand.

Demon Fighting World was among them.

The Demon Fighting World consists of three continents: war-ravaged Ista Continent, multicultural Rock Continent, and this place — the most peaceful and prosperous, home to the world’s finest two higher academies, Twin Star Continent.

The two premier academies are the "Garrison Warrior Academy" situated in the Eastern Plains, and the "Lorich Magic Academy" situated in the Western Pavir Plateau.

Spirit Realm Will placed Bai Pu in the Eastern Plains, an actual boon - because the Eastern Plains house the Garrison Warrior Academy, joining which would grant Bai Pu access to a plethora of Fighting Qi cultivation methods, free for him to choose.

However, the problem is...

How does one join?

It’s akin to a foreigner without any academic credentials attempting to enter Western Capital University in Huaxia; the difficulty is imaginable.

"Let’s shift the mindset... I don’t necessarily have to join as a student."

In such a large Garrison Academy, surely they hire kitchen assistants? Janitors? Librarians?
