Upon hearing Chu Yang's explanation, everyone present understood.
The people of Xia Nation grew even more excited. While talent couldn't represent everything, at least they had something the others didn't.
"Thank you to our ancestors for the lineage!"
"We only now realize how precious the blood flowing through our veins is!"
"Are we, in a way, consuming our ancestors' essence across time and space?"
"......"
Human joys and sorrows are not the same. While the people of Xia Nation cheered for their ancestors, those from Maple Leaf Country were silent. They thought of their own ancestors – Zeus, Poseidon, and the like…
Good heavens, putting aside whether those myths even existed, even if they did, they wouldn't belong to Xia Nation's cultivation system.
Cultivation was inherently something unique to Xia Nation's civilization. It was already good that they could get a sip of the soup.
As for people from other countries watching the live broadcast, their cries of despair filled the air!
"So that's how it is? Does this mean we will always be a step below Xia Nation people?"
"Fuck! I wish this era of cultivation had never begun, then I wouldn't feel inferior because of my bloodline!"
"Oh, our ancestors, when will you manifest? Xia Nation's civilization is bullying us!"
"......"
However, some countries were pleasantly surprised, such as the "good at living" Neon Nation.
"Huh? Our ancient myths have a deep connection with Xia Nation. It's said that Tamamo-no-Mae was a nine-tailed fox! Does our bloodline also contain something left by our ancestors?"
"That makes sense! We are from the same land. Back then, our place was called Higashi-Yama. We are definitely stronger than Westerners!"
"Haha! I don't know why, but I suddenly want to laugh!"
"......"
Then there was Kimchi Country, the center of the universe, whose culture also bore a high degree of similarity to Xia Nation.
Initially, when they learned that Xia Nation had mastered the method of cultivation, they were about to activate their bloodline skills and claim the Scripture Pavilion as their own.
After the video of Chu Yang destroying over three hundred aircraft was released, they all shut their mouths. This formidable figure truly killed when he had to!
Seeing Chu Yang's explanation of the bloodline setting at this moment, they instantly became indignant and engaged in heated discussions online.
"Aish! It's determined by bloodline to set talent. Do we have Xia Nation people's bloodline? Is our bloodline inferior to Xia Nation people's?"
"Sibarayo! Shut up! Since ancient times, Xia Nation people are a branch of our great Kimchi nation. If they have it, we definitely have it!"
"Big brother! Don't talk big and drag me along! Be careful of being blacklisted by Xia Nation! You'll ruin my chances, and I'll fight you!"
"I remember we were also part of Shenzhou in the past..."
......
In short, Chu Yang's setting caused anxiety to increase worldwide.
This setting was also something Chu Yang had just discovered.
He had never used his [Eye of Insight] to examine these foreigners before. Not looking was one thing, but looking was another – he was shocked.
The bloodlines of these Westerners were fundamentally different from those of the Xia Nation people.
Just as one soil nurtures one kind of people, the ancient cultivation civilization had influenced the rules of the land where Xia Nation was located, making it easier for Xia Nation people to cultivate.
As for the bloodlines of Westerners, perhaps they also contained things left by their ancestors, but it was not the same system as cultivation, so it was normal for them to be incompatible.
However, unless they produced someone like Chu Yang, who came with a system to guide them, they could only start from scratch to integrate into the cultivation system, becoming their own ancestors.
This made the people of Xia Nation very happy, but for Chu Yang, the pressure increased.
What did this mean? It meant that the foreigners would not be able to exert much strength in the battle against the evil races three years later!
Looking at the bigger picture, this was a deviation from Chu Yang's envisioned combat power of the entire human race.
The first batch of Maple Leaf Country people who came for talent assessment were initially just there to express their dissatisfaction. They didn't expect to be disqualified for causing trouble.
Byron looked at his dejected countrymen with great helplessness!
"I had warned you long ago not to cause trouble! If something happens, I'm the one who has to take the blame!"
However, for them, being able to return alive was already considered Chu Yang's mercy.
After all, judging by Chu Yang's previous actions, he was not someone to be trifled with. He killed those more than three hundred lives without hesitation.
As for the geniuses who entered the secret realm for trials, he didn't go to save them even when they were eaten by demonic beasts, clearly a cold-blooded machine. Was this someone to provoke?
With the first batch serving as a lesson, the people who came for talent assessment later were much more obedient.
Among these Maple Leaf Country people, the occasional appearance of one or two with medium talent would cause a huge sensation among them!
As for those with high talent, there wasn't a single one among these ten thousand people. Chu Yang estimated that it might take a hundred thousand people to produce one with high talent.
Headache. He thought that at least each country in the world would produce an Immortal Emperor, who would make the evil races weep three years later. Now, it seemed a bit difficult.
Chu Yang would consider it remarkable if even one person reached the Mahayana stage.
Furthermore, for foreigners to cultivate was even more troublesome than imagined.
Concepts like Yin-Yang, Five Elements, and Bagua were simply not part of their cultural system.
They even had a deeper understanding of wave-particle duality than of Yin-Yang.
Some vocabulary could only express its true artistic conception when expressed in Chinese, making the already rough cultivation path for foreigners even more arduous.
Xue Qianwei finally understood why Chu Yang had been frowning all along. It turned out that teaching foreigners cultivation was also a very, very difficult task.
"Are you worried that humanity won't be able to defeat the evil races in three years?"
Chu Yang said helplessly, "So these geniuses with heavenly talent must prove themselves! The future of humanity rests on their shoulders!"
However, it wasn't entirely bad. It meant that limited resources could be more concentrated on the strong.
This would make it easier to cultivate more powerful cultivators.
Of course, this was Chu Yang comforting himself. The more people with good talent, the better!
Boss Xue suddenly felt that Heaven was about to bestow a great mission upon her. She felt she couldn't remain so decadent. Clenching her fists, she said fiercely, "I can't! I'm going to participate in the trial too! I want to become an Empress!"
Chu Yang: "???"
This was already the eighteenth time Boss Xue had said this, and Chu Yang was used to it.
It was probably just a three-minute passion.
"Actually, there are professions that can contribute to humanity without needing to go to the battlefield."
Xue Qianwei's eyes lit up: "What?"
"Alchemists. Didn't you get a recipe book last time?"
Boss Xue's face immediately darkened, and she spread her hands: "You still have the nerve to say that? How long has this pie been drawn? There's no alchemy furnace! No herbs! How can I refine anything?"
Chu Yang touched his nose, coughed twice, and said, "It's already ready. I'll give you some ordinary medicinal herbs tonight, and you can start with the most basic Qi Gathering Pill. The recipe book should have recorded what's needed for the Qi Gathering Pill, right?"
"Yes, yes! It's a deal! Hehe, I've decided, I won't participate in the trial anymore. I'm going to refine pills. In the future, I'll be the biggest pill wholesaler on Planet Blue!"
