"We've gathered everyone for this meeting because we have a certain amount of time to prepare for the advancement test.
"Under normal circumstances, it won't arrive until a month later. But if we choose to bring it forward, we can start the test within a week!
"Do you think we should bring it forward?"
Ji Ye looked around at the players and heroes.
Of course, it was mainly Elder Meng, Su Nongying, Yan Qing, Ling Zhen, Tang Long, and the others who were in charge of the fort.
Apart from them, there was also Elder Zhou, who had successfully identified the method of A Hundred Vying Barges, and Zhou Yu, who was one of the most intelligent heroes of the Three Kingdoms.
"Let's bring it forward. A Hundred Vying Barges has two objectives. One is to advance the settlement to the Transcendent level, and the other is to reach the destination!
"The word 'vying' in 'A Hundred Vying Barges' is likely to involve 'time'. I think we should bring it forward …"
However, it was Hao Dahai, the head chef of the kitchen, who spoke first.
He was the firmest supporter of the acceleration theory, because he looked forward to reaching the destination. There would be an inexhaustible source of food, and he wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
"I think we should bring it forward too.
"After all, we completed the last round of the quest. Because we finished early, we gained a series of subsequent advantages. "
"If we wait for a month to start the test, many other settlements might have already triggered it. Furthermore, if they choose to bring it forward, they'll advance to the Transcendent level faster than us once they pass the test! "
Qin Yueyu nodded too.
"Yes, let's bring it forward …"
"Yes, I agree with bringing it forward. Seven days is enough!"
As a matter of fact, most people agreed with bringing it forward.
After all, it had been more than 20 days since the end of the Ten-Species Competition.
It was hard to guarantee that the other competing settlements wouldn't have Extraordinary Rank-9 warriors, and there would definitely be more Extraordinary Rank-9 warriors, because some races might be born Extraordinary.
"We can bring it forward, but … according to what you said, Master."
"In the last advancement test, we were suppressed by the power of providence of the alien settlements. Something similar might happen this time."
Only a small number of "wise men" would point out some possible problems after contemplation.
"Last time, there were only nine alien races competing against us. This time, it's the 'A Hundred Vying Barges'. It's very likely that the difficulty will be more than ten times greater. On top of that, all the competing settlements are the victors of the Ten-Race Competition, so we can't take them lightly even if they're our settlements. "
Zhou Yu said.
Although it had only been ten days.
However, he had already obtained a lot of information and knowledge from the players and natives who had learned music from him. It could be said that he had adapted much faster than the average person, be it in terms of thinking or vision.
As Zhou Yu said, the Twin Dragon Island was indeed very "advanced".
However, that was only relative to the other settlements.
Theoretically speaking, the settlements that were qualified to take part in the Transcendent advancement test should all be Extraordinary Rank-9 in terms of settlement core, personnel, or technology, which was the level of the Twin Dragon Island right now!
Therefore, his advantage in this matter was not as great as many people thought.
"That's right. If you start the advancement process in a hurry and end up failing the test or suffering a great loss due to insufficient preparation, even the 'reward' might not be able to make up for it!"
Elder Meng nodded in agreement.
"So, my opinion is that we should first summarize the progress of what we're responsible for and the problems we're facing.
"We'll brainstorm and make sure that we're fully prepared in seven days. Only then can we choose to advance the test."
Zhou Yu went on. To make it easier for the Chosen Ones to understand, he even used a few modern terms that he had learned from the players recently.
"The Golden Condors that I've tamed have already matured. They can be used in this test.
"However, although I've learned a thing or two about taming the Golden Condors, I'm afraid that I won't be able to help them learn how to fight together in just seven days!"
Yan Qing said.
"That's fine. Go and pick out the most unruly one. I have a way!"
Ji Ye thought for a moment and nodded.
"I've already brewed the Mortal Shedding Pill with the Extinguished Fire Seed. It can help some of the newcomers advance to the Extraordinary level in seven days.
"However, I don't have enough cauldrons, so I can't make too many in a short time."
An Daoquan said.
"Some of the newcomers that I've trained have reached Lesser Mastery in their skills. They can work together to make Soft Golden Armor. I'll help you make a large cauldron. Well, it can be done in one day at most … "
Tang Long said.
"We've created a weapon that can deal damage to Extraordinary Rank-7 soldiers, but only those with Ordinary Rank-7 physiques can control it steadily.
"Also, those with enough EXP can only fully master it in seven days."
Old Jiao said.
"Many of the newcomers have gained a lot of EXP from carrying bricks these days. They'll be more than willing to be rocket soldiers. After all, it's easier than carrying bricks, and they can participate in battles!"
…
The heroes and the people in charge of the players' affairs all explained their situations.
Then, they considered and chose the best solution to ensure that everything could be prepared in seven days.
"So, everyone agrees to bring the test forward?"
About two hours later, Ji Ye looked around the room again.
"Okay, let's bring it forward!"
…
["The Transcendent advancement test of your settlement will take place in seven days."]
["Attention, because your settlement is the first of the A Hundred Vying Barges settlements to choose the advancement, the power of providence of the other competing settlements will interfere with your settlement, and the advancement test may be much more difficult!"]
The moment Ji Ye made the decision, everyone on the Twin Dragon Island received two pieces of information in their heads.
"Huh? A Transcendent advancement test?"
"Is our settlement going to advance to the Transcendent level? That's fast. We're probably the first on Earth, aren't we? "
"Seven days from now, isn't it about time for us to log off? After we succeed, we can go offline and reveal the news on the forum! "
Each of the new players looked excited.
Unlike the leaders of the Twin Dragon Island, who had received the second piece of information, the meeting that was about to end was extended for another half an hour.
For the new players, what they had seen in the past month made them very confident about the Twin Dragon Island's advancement to the Transcendent level.
At this moment, they were even thinking about how to show off their identity as members of the Twin Dragon Island on the forum after the full moon.
Once the advancement was successful, the Twin Dragon Island's title as the top settlement on Earth would be unshakable for a long time.
"What? Advance to the Transcendent level?"
"Which settlement have I come to? Is it …"
In the spacious Temple of Providence, a "new player" who had just arrived in the white light was even more shocked and confused.
Of course, although he was a "new player", he was more like a "reborn" person.
Although it had been almost a month since the third batch of new players arrived, the Temple of Providence was still filled with the Chosen Ones every day.
These people naturally came from the other settlements.
Although the Ten-Species Competition was over, the A Hundred Vying Barges was even more dangerous for some settlements below Extraordinary Rank-7. Casualties were unavoidable.
"Stop dawdling. Hurry up and register yourself. Then, get your ID card and report to the Musical House Island! "
An Iron Buddha, who was guarding the Temple of Providence and was wearing standard armor that was inlaid with soft gold on the key parts, shouted at the players who had been standing there for a long time.
His voice wasn't loud, but there was an oppressive and sexy vibe that was similar to fighting spirit!
"Well, this is … Okay, I'll go right away …"
"As expected of the best settlement on Earth. Even the soldiers guarding the Temple of Providence are above Extraordinary Rank-5. The standard armor they're wearing is definitely very sturdy too …"
As a second-batch player, he was still able to make a judgment even though he had been reborn.
He could tell that the person in the Temple of Providence who was wearing standard armor was definitely above Extraordinary Rank-5.
Extraordinary Rank-5! Even if they were only Elite or Common, they would've been leaders in his original settlement.
They would've been at least leaders with real power!
However, he was only a soldier on the Twin Dragon Island!
It was because the Twin Dragon Island had killed the Magma Monsters.
The Twin Dragon Island had obtained more than seventy non-Commander-level Souls of Civilization above Extraordinary Rank-5. Because of that, the special troops on the Yuan battlefield, such as Iron Buddhas, Shadow Assassins, and Water Demons, had all been gathered. There were eight Iron Buddhas in the Temple of Providence.
"Isn't this a little too strong?"
This player who had been reborn felt touched and excited at the same time.
After all, although he had died once, he was reborn in the Twin Dragon Mount fort. He was definitely very lucky.
"Well, this is …"
Under the guidance of the Iron Buddhas, the reborn player left the Temple of Providence.
When he saw this scene, his eyes widened even further.
It was because another group of soldiers wearing standard armor similar to the ones guarding the Temple of Providence walked into the temple with some items in their hands.
Those items were Commander-level Souls of Civilization judging from their appearance.
Apart from the Souls of Civilization, some soldiers were holding sabers, shields, fiery stones, and other treasures. They placed them on the nine-level altar in the Temple of Providence.
There were more than a dozen Commander-level Souls of Civilization and their corresponding offerings. Was this going to be a one-off "sacrifice"?
The player, who used to be a leader, couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.
