This would greatly reduce the consumption of resources for talent cultivation and open up a path for ordinary people to enter the resource-consumption profession.

This was also the reason why Feng Qi and the Scarlet Research Institute had always regarded super virtual games as a trump card that could change the future.

However, in this combat timeline, the preparations for the promotion of super virtual games were not sufficient.

The hidden dangers within human society were not eliminated.

It was destined that the usage of super virtual games in this battle line would be restricted, and they would not be able to complete the historical mission he and the Scarlet Research Institute had envisioned.

However, Feng Qi had considered this when he decided to launch the super virtual game.

He considered the possibility of a crisis.

Next, he would continue to promote Breaking Dawn in the various universities in Star City. Then, he would promote it to the military and the domain combat teams stationed in Star City.

He wanted to build a virtual training ground in Star City and quickly increase the combat strength of the military, academies, and combat teams.

They were preparing for the upcoming battle.

Feng Qi knew that there were many hidden dangers in this plan.

For example, if other hidden factions in Star City had yet to be discovered, would they reveal information about the super virtual game?

However, investigating this information was the mission of his combat timeline.

Luring the snake out of its hole required bait.

Super virtual games might be able to lure out many hidden domain factions.

The risk of doing so was high.

But if one didn’t give up something, one wouldn’t be able to fish out the hidden forces behind the scenes.

Standing up, Feng Qi came to the jade statue and sat down. He began to meditate to deepen his mental connection to increase his control over his innate ability.

In this combat timeline, one’s strength was important.

Stabilization was only temporary. In the future, they would welcome cruel slaughter.

Feng Qi realized that when he was unafraid of death, his mental state would become incomparably powerful when he cultivated.

It was especially beneficial to the cultivation of Fist Force.

The indomitable Fist Force matched his mental state perfectly.

Just like this sacrifice timeline of his.

Once he threw a punch, there was no turning back. Even if mountains of blades and seas of flames lay ahead, he could still break through with sheer force. If breaking through was impossible, then he would face death.

Self-sacrificing was invincible.

Starlight Academy.

Conference room.

“Elder Liang, I disagree with your proposal. Since Starlight Academy aims to climb the ranks, we should allocate our resources towards enhancing the students’ cultivation. While I wouldn’t oppose investing in the improvement of the quality of our food and drinks, virtual games are too ephemeral. I object to such procurement!”

The one who spoke was a burly man with claw marks on his face. He looked rather fierce.

In the face of Elder Liang’s suggestion to purchase high-end virtual capsules, the man raised a righteous objection.

At this moment, he continued.

“I understand your intention to boost Starlight Academy’s ranking and secure more resources for the students. However, for genuine improvement, we must be practical. Our regular resources at Starlight Academy amount to less than a fifth of what Star City Academy has. Investing them in high-end virtual gaming capsules now would be a detriment to both the academy and the students if we were to fail.”

Facing the man’s righteous words, Elder Liang explained with a smile. “Xiao Guo, have you tried the super virtual game? If you haven’t played it, how can you be sure that this game can’t bring substantial improvement to our Starlight Academy’s overall strength?”

“Moreover, do you believe we can make purchases at our whim? If we intend to buy, we must wait our turn. From what I understand, we can only make a purchase when Star City Academy’s quota reaches 30%. Even then, securing our turn will entail competing through joint virtual competitions between the academies. Your thinking is overly simplistic.”

Hearing this, the burly man named Xiao Guo opened his mouth and finally shook his head.

“The Star City Academy can afford to experiment and ration resources as they please They have the luxury to try, even if it results in waste. However, the conditions at our Starlight Academy are significantly less favorable compared to Star City Academy. The outcomes of procurement may not align with our expectations and could be an inefficient use of teaching resources. I propose that we assess the experience of the Star City Academy first before making a decision.”

Elder Liang, who was sitting at the master seat, shook his head helplessly. “Xiao Guo, I understand your concerns. You believe that the Star City Academy can afford to waste resources, and we cannot blindly follow suit. However, I visited the Star City Academy to experience the super virtual game. I can assure you that this game will effectively address student safety in confrontational training. It has the potential to greatly enhance the overall strength of our academy!”

Elder Liang swept his gaze across the hesitant higher-ups present. After some thought, he said.

“How about this? Come with me to Star City Academy. I’ll bring you guys to experience it personally and vote to decide if Starlight Academy should buy high-end virtual gaming capsules. What do you think?”

“Alright.” Xiao Guo immediately nodded.

“Then let’s set off now. Xiao Guo, go arrange the car. I’ll contact Old Bai now. Meeting adjourned!”

At this moment, everyone stood up one after another. After saluting the flag placed at the front of the conference room, they left.

A few hours later, at the Star City Academy.

A bus passed through the security check and drove into Star City Academy. Then, it drove along the lakeshore toward the gymnasium.

A moment later, the bus stopped in front of the Star City Academy gymnasium, which was now the “Virtual Gymnasium.”

Elder Liang led a group of higher-ups from Starlight Academy out of the car. This wasn’t their first visit to the Star City Academy. Every year, the school exchange meeting in Star City took place at the Star City Academy..
