Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation-Chapter 509 - 217 Clumsy

Inside the Academic Hall, Academician Kou Jing casually set up a timing hourglass.

There was a time limit.

Two quarters of an hour, three emblems.

Following that, with a wave of his hand from Academician Kou, the Star Curtain displayed one after another the disassembly diagrams of Connected Star Patterns and Star Pivots, allowing disciples who were unable to engrave to contemplate and understand without wasting time.

As for Academician Kou himself, he quietly awaited the results. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Emblems were a life-saving item for a cultivator at critical moments, and one of the few ways in this world to pre-store offensive or defensive spells.

Extremely important.

Academician Kou held public classes primarily to enhance the emblem standards of all disciples at the National Taoist Institute, improving their future survivability and combat capabilities, and secondly, to recruit talents for the nation.

Not to mention high-tier Emblem Masters of the Seventh Tier, even those of the Sixth Tier were extremely rare.

Over the years, the National Taoist Institute had been focusing on cultivating several Fifth or Sixth Tier Emblem Masters in order to stockpile emblems of these tiers.

However, the higher the tier of the emblem, the more complex it becomes, and the greater the demand on the Divine Soul, with very few succeeding.

In addition, Academician Kou held public classes to seek a successor for his emblem engraving techniques.

Inside his Academic Academy, there were many disciples. Nearly all of his disciples learned his art of emblem engraving, but almost all focused primarily on cultivation.

Even his most valued senior disciple, Ye Anshi, had not mastered even twenty percent of his engraving skills.

But that was unavoidable, as everyone’s energy is limited.

Focusing on emblem engraving would delay cultivation.

That was exactly the case for Academician Kou Jing.

Kou Jing was once a Heavenly Pride of the Da Chen National Taoist School, even earlier than the State Preceptor Cheng Yue Xiao by over a decade, but to date, he had not advanced to the Seventh Tier, which was closely related to his devotion to researching emblems.

However, whether this path was wrong or not was hard to say.

Just like Academician Kou, although he was at the Sixth Tier Peak, he was now regarded as a national treasure by the Da Chen National Taoist School.

Even if he wanted to go to the Galaxy Battlefield, the State Preceptor Cheng Yue Xiao would implore him not to.

Simply because, the few Sixth Tier emblems he produced each year were the sole source of Sixth Tier emblems in Da Chen.

Each emblem was equivalent to the full-strength strike of a mid-Sixth Tier expert.

Often averting imminent disasters.

Unfortunately, production was too low; the Emperor took one for himself each year, and the rest were insufficient even for use on the Galaxy Battlefield.

In his lifetime, if he could cultivate another Sixth Tier Emblem Master for Da Chen, he would be perfectly content.

Inside the Academic Hall, all disciples who had received the Jade had already begun engraving Star Patterns.

Ji Hongli and Wang Jiugao, who were beside Xu Jin, had also participated in Star Casting and had received their Jade, beginning to engrave Star Patterns alongside Xu Jin.

These two achieving Star Casting was not surprising at all.

Among Xu Jin’s several mentors, Qi Shanye had endured over a decade in the Lingji Star Hall with the Clearing Soul Star Pattern before achieving Star Casting, whereas Ning Yuchan took six years before and after and finally exchanged a Refining God Golden Pill, which Xu Jin refined with Three Essences before Star Casting.

Xu Jin estimated that even if he hadn’t refined that Refining God Golden Pill for Ning Yuchan with Three Essences, Ning Yuchan would have achieved Star Casting still, but the Divine Soul Cultivation wouldn’t be as high as it was now.

Actually, these two were representative of commoner disciples.

Especially Old Qi, who was truly a grassroots among the grassroots, a regular genius from the grassroots.

Ning Yuchan was considered a talented disciple from a commoner background.

Thus, their Star Casting took more time.

But with strong familial support, like Ji Hongli, Wang Jiugao, Ying Ge, and others, Star Casting could be achieved much earlier.

Not to mention others, a Mental-locking Golden Pill combined with about ten opportunities to ascend the Heavenly Ascending Stairs, most people could achieve Star Casting.

For talented disciples like Wang Jiugao and Ying Ge, the Daoist Institute also granted three to five opportunities to ascend the Heavenly Ascending Stairs; with family assistance, they easily achieved Star Casting.

If they performed exceptionally, receiving a Refining God Golden Pill would fast track their Star Casting even more.

Some disciples from small families or local powerhouses, if their family could support three to five ascensions on the Heavenly Ascending Stairs, which is about thirty to fifty thousand Taoist Merits, plus one Mental-locking Golden Pill, could mostly achieve Star Casting within about a year.

But without family support, it was very difficult.

Taoist Merit was not easy to earn.

Like Xu Jin, who had fought through a Second-tier Fire Radiant Star Domain and reaped great rewards in a Third-Tier Purple Wind Star Domain, along with many other rewards, had only managed to earn thirty to fifty thousand Taoist Merits.

Old Qi, in fact, was rather tragic; although a talented disciple, he ranked at the bottom among talented disciples and performed very ordinarily, thus receiving fewer reward resources from Lingji Star Hall.

The scant resources he had were all used to enhance his Cultivation Level, and with a lagging Cultivation Level, he received even fewer resources.

That’s why it took him over a decade to achieve Star Casting.

This happened before the surge that follows the accumulation.

And most disciples who entered the National Taoist School had family support.

And those who came here were looking to engrave emblems and were aware of the requirements for engraving emblems.

Thus, there were not a few disciples who had achieved Star Casting.

Once he obtained Second-tier Star Jade, Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Power surged in, and immediately he sensed the dense Star Power contained within; the next moment, Xu Jin began engraving the Star Pivot Star Pattern.

The Star Pivot Star Pattern needed to encompass all the Star Power within the Star Jade as much as possible.

But any external force that entered would cause the Star Power within the Star Jade to surge and spill into every nook, unable to be fully encompassed.

What was required here was speed and stability.

Generally speaking, encapsulating eighty percent of a Star Jade’s Star Power was considered a qualified base Chapter.
