Lost in thought until school ended in the afternoon, Su Bai didn't head ho right away. Instead, he made his way to an internet café near the school.
To understand the details of this world's situation, the internet was the best source.
Although the system had helped integrate the original Su Bai's mories, there were still many gaps in his knowledge.
Upon arriving at the internet café, he habitually pulled out the five yuan he saved from lunch and slapped it on the counter. "Boss lady, give a temporary computer!"
After receiving the temporary card from the owner, Su Bai went straight to a computer and turned it on.

Various official news and historical data appeared one by one.
On September 18, 1906, a massive rift suddenly appeared in the sky, and countless exotic beasts erged from it. It took the military forces of various countries three months to kill all the beasts that appeared from the rift, but as long as the rift remained, a new batch of beasts would appear periodically.
Thus, humanity decided to send a death squad into the rift to investigate, discovering that behind the rift lay a vast expanse of land. To prevent the beasts from continuously erging, the military forces of various countries decided to build a military base within the sky rift to fend off the beasts.
At the sa ti, Earth's spiritual energy began to revive, and so people gradually awakened to martial arts and superpowers.
The New Era of Humanity officially began.
On March 6, 1907, a second rift appeared in the sky.
On May 7, 1907, a third rift appeared.
The fourth, the fifth...
In the following century, the number of rifts increased, and their appearance beca more frequent.
Now, they are scattered all over the world, and the exotic beast races behind each rift are different.
Scientists nad the battlefield behind the sky rifts: Myriad Races Battlefield!
Su Bai also found nurous videos of humans being rcilessly slaughtered by exotic beasts.
For instance, a normal, warm family, where the wife and daughter were crushed into pulp by a three-ter-long monster, and the man, holding a kitchen knife, tried to avenge them but was powerless.
Or a regular soldier, clutching a broken sword, roaring defiantly against a sea of ferocious beasts.
Or a human commander of indeterminate nationality, armor stained with blood, defending a city alone, shouting a tragic vow of human victory as the city fell!

Su Bai's mood turned heavy for a mont.
He sighed deeply and continued to look up information about the Martial Academy.
Sure enough, he found the red-letter docunt on educational reform on the Martial Academy's official website.
Previously, to enter the Martial Academy, one had to be a martial artist or a superpowered individual and score above a certain threshold in cultural exams.
This year, the Martial Academy's admission standards were reford, relaxing cultural course standards across the board and increasing the number of admissions several tis over.
However, Su Bai knew that getting into the Martial Academy was still not easy for ordinary people.
Martial artists need to be trained from a young age, honing their skills and nurturing their energy and blood, requiring exorbitant expenses for dicinal baths and expert guidance.
The awakening of superpowers is even more elusive, with a probability of less than one in ten thousand.
For ordinary people, even with relaxed cultural conditions, the remaining requirents are extrely stringent.
Fortunately, Su Bai already possessed the Strongest Beast Tar System. As long as he contracted a fierce beast, he could naturally beco a superpowered individual.

After gathering the information he wanted, Su Bai quietly left the internet café.
As the sky darkened, the dim streetlights cast Su Bai's shadow long across the street.
The invasion of the Myriad Races was a crisis for all humanity. From the Martial Academy's admission reforms, Su Bai could see that the situation in Jiangzhou had reached a dangerous level.
With great power cos great responsibility, and Su Bai understood why martial artists and superpowered individuals previously needed to et cultural score requirents.
Because if power far beyond ordinary people went unchecked, it would pose a significant threat to the country and society.
If not for the urgent situation on the front lines, the Martial Academy wouldn't have adopted such extre asures to cultivate talent.
Although Su Bai was just a high school student, having lived two lives, his maturity far exceeded that of his peers. While other students celebrated the easier entrance to the Martial Academy, only Su Bai realized the harsh truth behind it.

The invasion of the Myriad Races hung over Su Bai's head like a sword, ready to fall at any mont.
Only by becoming stronger, much stronger, could he survive and find his place in this human crisis.
Unknowingly, Su Bai had reached his doorstep. Though the apartnt complex was old, it held eighteen years of his mories.
"I must go to the Martial Academy!"
Su Bai solidified his resolve, wanting to protect those he cherished, his ho, and his family.
As he pushed open his front door, the system's prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
