(Baby had a recurring fever, so I brought him to see a doctor.)
There were a few special places in Immemorial Sword City. One of them was called the Genius Camp, while the other was called the Prodigy Camp.
The Genius Camp, as the name suggested, was a place to nurture the younger generation of geniuses. Only those who had reached the elite level were qualified to enter. As for how to determine whether one was an elite or not, they had to pass the test of the Divine Talent Stele.
The Genius Camp was a place where the elite and exceptional geniuses gathered. Inside, they would be able to grow better.
Simply put, if two geniuses of the same talent entered the Genius Camp and one didn't, the difference between them would become obvious in less than ten years.
The Genius Camp's purpose was to gather the young geniuses of the human race and provide them with a better cultivation environment. They would be able to develop their potential to the extreme and become the main force of the human race, contributing to the rise of the human race.
The Prodigy Camp and the Genius Camp were similar in nature. However, the Prodigy Camp's level was much higher than the Genius Camp's. This was because the basic requirement to enter the Prodigy Camp was to have an overall score of seven stars on the Divine Talent Stele. Those below seven stars could only enter the Genius Camp. This caused the Prodigy Camp's population to be much smaller than the Genius Camp's. However, the Prodigy Camp's cultivation environment and resources were much better.
Although talent couldn't determine everything for those big shots, the higher the talent, the higher the chance of becoming a Great Emperor or Sovereign. Moreover, at the same cultivation level, the higher the talent, the greater the chance of becoming a Great Emperor or Sovereign.
After the Divine Talent Stele's test, Chu Mu's overall score had reached twelve stars. That was the level of the most exceptional geniuses. Naturally, he was qualified to enter the Prodigy Camp. In fact, he was welcomed with open arms.
The Prodigy Camp was located in the east of Immemorial Sword City, adjacent to the Genius Camp.
Zhang Huan and Chu Huangji brought Chu Mu to the Prodigy Camp. Back then, Chu Huangji had also walked out of the Prodigy Camp.
"Brother Chu, because you've just entered the Prodigy Camp, you'll be rewarded with a certain amount of clan merit points." Zhang Huan said, "I'll bring you to the Prodigy Camp to register and comprehend the clan merit points. You're a top genius, so the clan merit points you'll be rewarded.
On the way here, Chu Mu had already understood the value of clan merit points. He also knew to a certain extent how difficult it was to earn clan merit points.
Geniuses who joined the Genius Camp for the first time would be rewarded with a certain amount of clan points based on their overall star rating on the Divine Talent Stele. It was said that a one star genius would receive ten points, a two star genius would receive twenty points, and a three star genius would receive thirty points.
Four-star, that was the level of exceptional prodigies. Thus, it was not 40 points, but 50 points, 60 points for five-star, and 70 points for six-star.
Seven-star prodigies were worth 100 points, eight-star prodigies were worth 120 points, and nine-star prodigies were worth 140 points.
A ten-star supreme prodigy would have 200 points, an eleven-star supreme prodigy would have 240 points, and so on. A twelve-star supreme prodigy would have 280 points.
However, when Chu Mu finished registering at the camp, some clan points suddenly appeared in his Sword Union Token. After taking a closer look, Chu Mu was surprised to see that there were 500 clan points.
"500 points!" Zhang Huan and Chu Huangji were very surprised. If it was based on the completion of missions, 500 clan points would only be obtained after completing several missions. It was not that easy.
Every prodigy had their own residence in the Prodigy Camp. Chu Mu was a top genius, and his residence was a floating pavilion.
"Brother Chu, after entering the Prodigy Camp, everything will follow the rules. I cannot interfere, and neither can Brother Huangji. It will all depend on your own ability. However, I believe in Brother Chu's ability." Before leaving, Zhang Huan said, "In addition, you have to do your best to earn clan points. It's very important, even beyond your imagination. The most common way to earn clan points is to complete some missions or make contributions to the human race. Based on your contributions, you will be evaluated and summarized. In addition, after entering the Prodigy Camp, there are two other ways to earn clan points. You must remember them."
"Let me explain." Said Chu Huangji. He had been in the Prodigy Camp for many years, but Zhang Huan hadn't. Therefore, Chu Huangji understood the Prodigy Camp better than Zhang Huan. "The first method is to fight. Brother Mu, you are a top genius, but your cultivation level is not high enough. Your strength is not high enough. Therefore, when you enter the Prodigy Camp, you are a newcomer. For generations, whether it is the Immemorial Sword City, Tian Wu Battle City, or the Wan Sect Dao City, the Prodigy Camp has an unwritten rule, and that is to challenge newcomers."
Chu Mu immediately understood when he heard Chu Huangji.
The so-called 'challenge newcomers' was just a nice way of saying it. In fact, it was to bully the newcomers, to let them know that the world did not revolve around them. Coming to the Prodigy Camp, one had to know that there were more than one genius here. There was nothing special about you, you were just a genius like everyone else.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Some Heaven's Chosen might be one in ten thousand in their original places. Over time, it was inevitable that they would develop a kind of self-centered attitude. In a place like the Heaven's Chosen Battalion, they would be full of arrogance and think that they were the best. Only after being hit by a blow would they be able to recognize reality, change their mentality, and cultivate properly.
It was because of this that the tycoons acquiesced to the existence of the unwritten rule of challenging newcomers.
Chu Mu was a peerless genius. Moreover, he was a peak peerless genius that appeared once in a thousand years. If his cultivation was half step emperor, perhaps no one would dare to provoke him. However, he was only at the beginning stage of Small Sacred Master. There would definitely be many people who would challenge him.
Defeating him would earn them the reputation of defeating a top genius.
It could be said that Chu Mu, who had the talent of a top genius but was only a Low-Level Lesser Saint Master, was a delicious cake in the eyes of many geniuses in the Prodigy Camp.
"The other is the ranking of the Prodigy Ranking." Chu Huangji continued, "The Prodigy Ranking is a ranking list within the Prodigy Camp. There are only ten spots. As long as you are on the Prodigy Ranking, you will receive clan merit points that correspond to your ranking every month. Moreover, you will also have some special rights, such as receiving pointers from a Demigod Sovereign."
Chu Mu was instantly shocked.
Demigod Sovereigns were supreme existences no matter which race they belonged to. Every word they spoke carried the charm of the Great Dao. If one could receive guidance from a Demigod Sovereign, not only would they be immersed in the rich Great Dao, but they would also be enlightened by the Demigod Sovereign. It would be immensely beneficial to one's cultivation.
Therefore, countless people would be willing to go bankrupt in exchange for a pointers from a Demigod Sovereign.
In the Prodigy Camp, as long as one was on the Prodigy Ranking, they would have the opportunity to receive pointers from a Demigod Sovereign. How attractive was that?
"Junior Brother Chu Mu, you are a top genius that only appears once in a thousand years. You are extraordinary. I believe that you will definitely dominate the Prodigy Camp." Chu Huangji patted Chu Mu's shoulder and smiled, "I will take my leave first. I will return to the Chu Sect. See you again."
"Goodbye, Senior Brother Huangji." Chu Mu said and bid farewell to Chu Huangji. Shortly after, Zhang Huan also left. He was going to receive his reward, which was a few hundred clan merit points.
… …
"Yang Zongning, I heard that you were in the Divine Talent Stele Hall. Tell me what you saw." A group of geniuses gathered in the Prodigy Camp and one of them spoke.
"Alright." Yang Zongning nodded with a gloomy face. Not long ago, he had a conflict with a top genius in the Divine Talent Stele Hall. This made him extremely regretful. Hence, he told them what he saw.
"Oh, you are saying that this person's cultivation is only a Low-Level Lesser Saint Master?"
"That's right. I am sure of that." Yang Zongning said.
"The top peerless geniuses are only slightly better than the elite peerless geniuses in terms of talent. Their strength would not be much higher than the other peerless geniuses at the same cultivation level. So, a Low Level Little Sacred Master would be stronger than a Supreme Sacred Master, reaching the level of a Low Level Great Sovereign. Such strength would only be considered average in the Prodigies Camp." One of the prodigies analyzed, "Even if he has some special ability to increase his strength, he's probably only close to a mid-level half-step Great Emperor. He's above average in the Prodigies' Battalion. There are many people who can defeat him."
"This is the first time this guy has entered the Prodigy Camp. He should be rewarded with a corresponding amount of clan merit points. Since he is a top genius, he should be rewarded with two hundred and eighty clan merit points."
"I think it should be more than that. According to the normal calculation, it should be two hundred and eighty clan merit points. However, he is a top genius. Our Prodigy Camp has not had such a genius for over a thousand years. So, he should be rewarded with additional clan merit points. As for how much, I am not sure. However, I am sure that he should be rewarded with more than three hundred clan merit points."
"It is a pity that the rule states that newcomers can only be challenged ten times. Moreover, the clan merit points for each battle cannot be more than ten. At most, we can only take away a hundred clan merit points from him." Someone said regretfully.
Challenging newcomers was allowed. However, there had been newcomers who had been challenged too many times. They had suffered too much of a blow and lost their will. Since then, they had brought some losses to the tribe. Hence, there was a rule that newcomers could not be challenged more than ten times and the clan merit points could not be more than ten.
It was a way to protect the newcomers.
Of course, if a newcomer could not accept ten defeats, it would only prove that he was talented but did not have the corresponding temperament. In the end, his achievements would be limited.
After sending off Zhang Huan and Chu Huangji, Chu Mu carefully sensed his residence, the Floating Pavilion.
From the outside, it looked simple but it was not big. However, the space inside was huge. Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was extremely dense. He could clearly feel the aura of various laws.
