One man and two women slowly walked in.

"You've finally arrived," Messiah said with a smile, sitting in the small martial arts hall. "Please, have a seat. How have things been lately? Did the college entrance exam recently conclude?"

"It went okay."

The few of them nodded.

These three individuals were talents acquired from Rongcheng's self-operating "talent market." Xu Zhi had taken a few, and Kuang Tu had also taken some, accepting them as disciples, intending to build connections first.

Indigenous talents couldn't discover them, but martial arts geniuses from outside could also become protagonists of the era, as their level of genius was certainly sufficient.

"Actually, that old sly fox, Rongcheng, also noticed something was off with Kuang Tu. Why would he suddenly need martial arts talents? This doesn't fit the era at all, but Kuang Tu offered too much."

Xu Zhi looked at these disciples, acquired with significant funds, feeling quite satisfied. "But what does Kuang Tu mean by giving me the only two girls? That guy actually said that's my preference, that I have an aesthetic appreciation for girls with muscular bodies but cute, beautiful faces?"

Xu Zhi felt he had definitely been misunderstood.

Before him, all three had robust, bronze-colored muscles. They hailed from various planets within different universes, originating from indigenous populations across various star systems.

"Teacher, how exactly did we come to be here?"

The eldest disciple, a handsome and very composed young man named Kosa, asked, "We were originally cave dwellers. We don't know how we got here; we just inexplicably became natives of this place. If you hadn't taken us as disciples, we truly wouldn't have known what to do."

They had inexplicably traveled here, fortunate that their teacher discovered them.

Originally, the third disciple was a female middle school student from a normal planet, the eldest disciple was a handyman in an evil demonic sect, and the second disciple was a female office worker in her twenties.

"I don't know why I came here either. Perhaps it was spatial chaos that led to my transmigration here. I merely arrived a step before you did."

Messiah smiled and said, "Perhaps it's the will of the universe. Before, your talents couldn't be fully utilized, but now that you're here, you all possess remarkable martial arts aptitude. It's as if these cultivation systems were made for you."

The three of them nodded.

"Teacher, you mentioned those cave dwellers; they must be the planets from our original universe, though clearly not from the same region," the eldest disciple Kosa said. "However, their power is comparable to the demonic sect I lived in before. Our sect's Grand Elders also included several Enlightened Ones."

"That's incredible! The two of us were just from ordinary planets before," said the two tall, muscular girls.

At first, they resisted martial arts training.

But they soon got used to it, realizing it was the prevailing aesthetic in this world. Weak, delicate girls were considered sickly.

Tall and robust was considered beautiful, as were wide hips. Dowries were even calculated based on weight, and girls weighing less than 220 pounds were unpopular for marriage.

However, this weight referred to strength, not fat.

Originally, their appearances were quite ordinary, but now, thanks to their exceptional martial arts talent and perfectly sculpted muscles, they had become sought-after beauties. Many boys at school pursued them; they were highly popular.

Messiah, however, cautioned them, "Their pursuit of you isn't about true beauty. It's because your aptitudes are strong. Right now, you might appear entirely muscular, but once you reach the Eighth-tier God Realm, you will regain the beautiful physique of normal girls. That's when true beauty will emerge. They are merely investing early, waiting for ugly ducklings to become swans."

After all, female powerhouses were rare, and everyone wanted a companion.

The world of martial artists was simply like this: full of vigor, but with immense power. Ordinary girls were thought to shatter like tofu at a touch, so only powerful women of the same realm had the potential to become Dao companions.

"No one wants to rely solely on themselves," Kosa said earnestly.

The two girls looked exasperated.

"Teacher, what kind of world is this, anyway?" Kosa asked curiously.

"This world is vast," Xu Zhi mused, inviting them to sit down. "Since you're also training in martial arts, I imagine you're interested in the outside world, so let me tell you about it."

"The world is incredibly vast. It's not just the subterranean people beneath our feet; there's also us."

Xu Zhi took out a map of the planet.

"We live on this continent, and this small dot is our area," Xu Zhi explained. "In a distant, different region, there lives a group of mysterious, tall, mature giants. They also cultivate a system similar to ours, but their bodies are countless light-years in size."

"Countless light-years? Are there really such beings?" They were astonished.

"What we see now are continents, but in the distance, there are also oceans. The oceans contain mysterious creatures that cultivate bloodlines. Along the coasts, there are vast plants, forests, and cities, but what they cultivate is a bloodline-based structure, similar to the subterranean people beneath our feet."

The three of them listened in awe, staring at the planet's map with immense surprise.

"And all I've told you about is just one-ninth of the universe, specifically the situation on our continent." Xu Zhi pointed to the eight other blank continental areas on the map. "Beyond our continent, there are eight other continents, even more mysterious, and it's very difficult for us to travel across the vast oceans to them."

These words left the few of them deeply shaken, unable to compose themselves.

*Clap, clap, clap.*

At that moment, applause suddenly sounded from outside the door.

"You mysterious outsiders truly know a lot! Our world's scope is unexpectedly vast." A tall, robust young man walked in, clapping his hands and smiling.

Xu Zhi was momentarily stunned. He had been secretly monitored all along without even realizing it.

This was the unknown of this era; omnipotence and omniscience were impossible. Even when secretly observed, one wouldn't know because Messiah's body was truly just at the realm of an ordinary god.

"Well, who might you be, sir?" Messiah said earnestly.

This made Xu Zhi feel a little helpless. The people next door were breaking through too quickly, while the intelligence and talent here seemed lower?

Indeed, they were beings of an older era, with a lower average IQ.

Time flew by; another thirty years passed.

Xu Zhi sat in the martial arts hall, drinking tea and looking out the window. "Perhaps someone has already secretly broken through; it's hard to say, after all, this land is simply too vast."

Now, he was no longer omniscient and omnipotent. If someone hid themselves, he simply wouldn't know.

Previously, Xu Zhi could always discern the major turning points of an era at a glance, understanding who held its destiny, who pioneered new developments, and who had the highest hidden cultivation realm. He would secretly intervene and guide things.

"As for us, we can only cultivate martial arts!"

"Within the underground cities, there are countless incredibly prosperous civilizations. Beyond their gods, there are also Ninth-tier beings, said to be immortal and indestructible—truly terrifying."

Xu Zhi shook his head and sighed, sitting in his chair, watching as the door suddenly creaked open.

"Teacher!""Teacher!""Kasa, the Thundercloud God who wields lightning! Wielding lightning is terrifying; that's not a power we can control!"

But here, if they didn't come out, he truly wouldn't know.

"Never mind. The old method of finding 'talents of the era' isn't viable anymore, but Kuang Tu also has his own crude methods now; after all, he's a professional."

They fiercely resisted the underground cities and the cave dwellers, researching their abilities.

"They possess all sorts of strange and incredibly evil sorcery! They can summon wind and rain; it's truly sinister!"

Numerous martial artists emerged, creating a formidable era of martial arts.

"And there's Bai Shan, known as the Sword Dao Celestial Venerable. He can control swords to fly like immortals, summoning tens of thousands of weapons. How can we, mere mortals of flesh and blood, possibly resist that?"

Countless people mourned and roared in anger.

If one race has an average IQ of 140, while humanity's average IQ is only 70—more than double the difference—then it's natural for them to produce geniuses more easily.

If it weren't for the fact that the power of the Enlightened Ones' laws was also weakened on the Chaotic Heavenly Land, they would have been extinct long ago.

Even so, every time an Enlightened One from the opposing side descended, they would devastate an area, slaughtering countless martial arts cities and filling people with indignation!

In recent years, gods have continuously appeared, possessing perfect bloodline foundations. Yet, they all stop at the Eighth-tier; ultimately, no one has been able to break through to the legendary Ninth-tier.
