The news of Cao Yi's breakthrough spread quickly through the Fire Camp at the behest of Lin Li and other key leaders.
Everyone learned that this was the first Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivator born locally, and they sowhat understood the origin of the modified Feitian 59.
Overall,
this provided a significant boost to morale within the camp.
Many warriors privately assessed their differences with Cao Yi and began to cultivate more diligently.
After all, as soldiers,
the instinct to compete and excel is ingrained in their bones.
Many warriors with triple spiritual roots or even double spiritual roots were already elite soldiers of Soldier King level in the army before the aptitude test, and they naturally did not like to fall behind.
The command headquarters held an encouraging attitude towards this.
This is a very healthy form of competition and significantly enhances the strength of the team.

Two Damo Days passed in a flash.
The ti quickly arrived for the handover of the array antennas in Ziqiong City.
Originally, the installation ti agreed with the Yang Family was three Damo Days, which is about twenty days in the local ti.
But everyone knows the character of the rabbit team; when it cos to infrastructure, they truly embody the phrase "diligent and pragmatic."
Especially the construction teams sent to the Damo Realm, their professionalism and dedication are beyond words.
Therefore, with continuous hard work, the rabbit team completed the entire project in less than 70% of the scheduled ti.
At this mont,
Ma Ning was leading the project's chief engineer, Huang Jiaqi, in the final handover work with Yang Bolin beside the antenna array:
"Shopkeeper Yang, the antennas you require have been fully tested, and you can inspect them at any ti.
This array nad 'Sharp-Eared' can transmit sound over a distance of eighteen hundred miles and exchange images under most conditions.
Additionally, an array known as the base station has been established within a two-hundred-mile radius around Ziqiong City.
You should know the locations of the base station arrays, and it is essential to assign personnel for regular inspections."
Yang Bolin listened carefully and morized Ma Ning's words in his heart.
When Ma Ning ntioned the 'base station array,' he knowingly nodded.
After all, the placent of the base stations was within Ziqiong City's jurisdiction and required his approval for installation.
According to Ma Ning,
due to so special environntal impacts, Taoshu Comrce Association could only guarantee seamless voice communication.
As for image transmission, the effect might be suboptimal or even unusable in certain circumstances.
However, this is not the case for the 'base station array.'
As long as you are within the range of the base station array,
both voice and image can be transmitted without any obstruction.
Although most problems can be solved by voice communication,
if image exchange is possible, most people would definitely choose this thod—as evidenced by the Mo Family being deceived by the mory Pearl earlier, the people of the Damo Realm generally believe that video cannot be falsified.
This could be considered a testant to their simple and honest nature...
Yang Bolin then glanced at the antenna array towering over thirty ters high and asked Ma Ning:
"By the way, Shopkeeper Ma.
The energy supply problem you ntioned earlier, can you enlighten an old man like now?"
When the cooperation agreent was initially signed, Yang Bolin specifically inquired about the consumption of the array.
After all, this kind of array is indeed convenient, and its tiliness virtually surpasses all known ans.
But if the cost of each use is too high, its value needs to be reevaluated.
At that ti, Ma Ning's reply was that the antenna array requires a constant activation state.
The specific energy consumption is sowhat special and requires a practical demonstration to understand.
He could only assure that the energy cost was low, with a maintenance cost of about a hundred Spirit Stones per Damo Day.
The cost of a single call over a thousand miles is approximately less than one percent of a Spirit Stone, and the cost over a hundred miles is almost negligible.
Consequently, both parties signed an acceptance agreent resembling a bet:
If the actual expenditure of the array after the project's completion exceeds Ma Ning's commitnt, Ziqiong City has the right to unilaterally cancel the entire transaction.
Such agreents are quite common in reality, especially in industrial trade.
In earlier years, for various special reasons, many imported devices in our country could not enjoy such treatnt.
We were even deceived many tis, leaving us with a helpless feeling.
For instance, in 1971, there was a large-scale motor project in Jin Nan.
It was also one of the core projects back then, requiring a lot of imported processes.
At that ti, the Ministry of Machinery signed an agreent with the Germans, stipulating that the bearing cannot exceed 20.7.
And the outco?
The Germans directly breached the contract by adding a bunch of over 22 specifications, and in the end, they even demanded a guidance fee from us.
Six thousand dollars a day, and they'd leave imdiately if not paid.
What does a 1970s six thousand dollars an?
Back then, the rabbits were practically bleeding themselves for foreign exchange!
And yet, for a similar project, the big horse could confidently throw the contract and return the goods.
There was no choice.
At that ti, the rules of the COCOM were hanging over us, and trade equity was simply unattainable for us.
That is precisely why,
in later foreign trade, the rabbits often included clauses allowing inspection by the other party and refunding paynts if dissatisfied.
People who have been hurt can empathize and do not want similar incidents to happen to others.
This also shows confidence and assurance in their product.
This principle holds locally,
as does it in cross-world trade.
The trade rules and principles that should be abided by still need to be respected.
This is also why Yang Bolin always held a favorable view of Taoshu Comrce Association—because he genuinely sensed sincerity from the rabbits.
Indeed,
the rabbits earned more than double their profits in the trade with Purple Treasure Pavilion.
But these profits arise from the industrial disparities between two worlds, not money earned through dubious ans.
The Purple Treasure Pavilion also made a fortune in previous trades, did it not?
These benefits are an inevitable result of the convergence of two worlds, similar to the imnse profits from developing Mars or the moon.
Only the appearance of the light gate turned 'aerospace' costs to zero.
Making the developnt of the entire Damo Realm a low-cost process.
Not possessing what heaven gives shall bring calamity.
Returning to the scene.
Upon hearing Yang Bolin's question, Ma Ning smiled and said:
"Shopkeeper Yang, this array does not use Spirit Stones but rather two types of mixed energy.
One is called solar energy, and the other is called electric energy.
Do you see that row of black tal plates over there?
That is the solar energy storage panel, a kind of Magical Artifact that can absorb sunlight.
The specific principles are very complicated, but in short, open them during the day, and they will automatically receive solar energy.
This row of solar energy panels provides more than enough energy for the array to operate during the dayti in Damo Day."
Following Ma Ning's direction, Yang Bolin looked over.
Sure enough,
in the far corner of the ground, he saw a row of black tal plates slanted towards the sky.
He nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask:
"Then, Shopkeeper Ma, what exactly is electric energy?"
.....
Note:
FAST consus 0.83 degrees of electricity per second under full load, but it observes hundreds of light-years away in full load condition, and most power consumption is in the control room and air conditioners.
The antenna array in the text has a range of only 830 kiloters, and from what I found, it consus about 700 degrees of electricity per day under relay conditions.
