Chapter 473: The Focus of Development During a Lull Period_2
However, it does not mean that one cannot enhance their talent.
This has become the most competitive aspect for parents of this era.
They clearly understand that in this era, the future of their children is determined by three factors.
Effort, opportunity, and talent.
Opportunity needs no further discussion, as it cannot be forced; effort relies on education, but talent is where parents can make their contribution.
In this era, almost everyone, as long as they do not fall on the battlefield, can reach the limit of their own talents.
Some sufficiently powerful parents with ample achievements can even secure a Talent Enhancement Slot for their children among the Chosen Ones!
For top warriors like Song Cheng and Yang Jun who have married and had children, not to mention their kids, even their grandchildren and the younger generations have greater chances of directly obtaining a Purple Epic or even a Golden Legendary talent of the Chosen Ones.
Indeed, ordinary people have the opportunity to catch up, but such opportunities are rare.
However, ordinary people have their own ways to strive.
This brings us to the meaning of work.
Cultivation requires time; if everyone focuses solely on their own cultivation and nobody works, it would greatly impact the development of civilization.
From the development of various technological levels to the production of various resources and equipment.
Whether for themselves, their children, or their family, ordinary people can exchange work for sufficient resources.
Even for the most top-notch resources at each stage!
When it comes to the richness and availability of low-level resources, human civilization has indeed reached its pinnacle.
Any ordinary family's child has the chance to receive treatment comparable to the so-called "Saint Heir" or "Holy Daughter" within an equivalent force!
After all, no matter how advanced a low-level resource that can be put to use is, how advanced can it really be?
Perhaps there truly are some extremely advanced resources so rare and precious within present human civilization that they are only available to descendants of warriors who have obtained great military merits, just like the slots and qualification for promotion among the Chosen Ones.
Ultimately, the core of human civilization, especially in cultivating a new generation of talents, boils down to one thing.
—Opportunity!
An opportunity that is visible.
This is the tone set by Shen Hao himself at a meeting.
No matter how difficult the beginning is, as long as one is willing to work hard, they will surely have the chance to surpass others and even reach the pinnacle!
Whether it is for oneself or one's own children, the principle remains the same.
In the Extraordinary Era, everyone has a long life and countless tangible possibilities; who would want to be mediocre or abandoned by this rapidly developing era?
How could this not infuse the entire society with vitality and vigor?
And this was taken to its peak after Shen Hao announced a message.
—Shen Hao has distributed Fate's Blessing to those at the very bottom of society.
The lower one's position, the more likely they are to receive Fate's Blessing and become Destiny's Main Character!
This was Shen Hao's attempt in his search for a breakthrough to the Eighth Stage, and it is also an opportunity in the realm of "Cultivating Talent" that aids in the development of the entire civilization and society.
What is Fate's Blessing?
Put simply, it is opportunity! An endless stream of opportunities!
In the process of cultivation, one might suddenly gain enlightenment; during the fight for an opportunity, success could be grasped at the last moment; or even encounter a teacher who can change one's destiny while walking down the street...
After high-level human civilization announced many names who had received Fate's Blessing in the past, the whole society plunged into fervent discussion.
These people were indeed blessed as if by God!
In their lifetimes, they encountered countless chances.
Some seized them, others did not, but as long as the efforts are continuous, there is no lack of success!
Of course, there are some who are overly decadent, missing one opportunity after another, ultimately losing the blessings granted to them.
This, however, greatly stimulates the vitality of Human Civilization.
Everyone yearns to be Destiny's Main Character, and even if they aren't, under the current social structure of Human Civilization, effort is seldom in vain for most people.
The vitality that should belong solely to Human Civilization is also quickly spreading throughout the entire Human Civilization System.
Even the lowest level within Human Civilization, when considered by other Civilizations, is the object of countless envies.
No, it should be said that the status of being a Legal Citizen of Human Civilization alone is already a matter of immense desire for countless individuals.
This means access to more considerable resources, more convenient environments, and even now, the chance to become Destiny's Main Character!
The average level of Human Civilization alone is enough to make numerous Civilizations envious.
It is known that, during the Civilization Trial before last, Human Civilization achieved what seemed to Affiliated Civilizations an unbelievable accomplishment.
Within the entire Civilization, the number of natural deaths was zero!
Yes, zero.
Although the improvement in Life Level significantly increases people's lifespan, as the Trial progresses to this point, the passage of time also accelerates. In such a case, for a whole Civilization to not have a single natural death means that up to now, everyone's development in Life Level has outpaced the years!
Such an achievement may seem easy, but the subtleties it contains are the envy of the vast majority of Trial Civilizations.
After all, it represents a kind of extremely high baseline.
It signifies that even the weakest individuals within a Civilization possess a growth rate that surpasses their lifespans.
How could this not make other Affiliated Civilizations green with envy?
In today's entire Human Civilization System, anyone who can officially join Human Civilization, even as the lowest layer of society, remains an aspiration for countless people.
This is the result of Human Civilization's achievement in the domain of Cultivating Talent.
Securing these two domains is how Human Civilization's development during a standstill period can truly meet the requirements.
It has always been so for each standstill period in the past.
However, this time, it inevitably still holds some differences.
The answer is naturally the emergence of a bigger stage - All Heavens!
A stage that even the Civilization Trial System cannot completely control.
Upon learning this news, relevant research institutions were established immediately, and there was no need for Shen Hao to urge them. For any Trial Civilization, a realm outside the control of the Civilization Trial System possesses a fatal attraction.
After all, no matter how much faith or loyalty the whole Human Civilization supplies to Shen Hao, no one dares claim that their Emperor is unrestricted by the Civilization Trial System and can reign supreme over the Human Civilization System.
The loyalty of the [Emperor] Profession is never blind.
Under such circumstances, the chance of a bigger stage suddenly appears, how can one not be excited and take it seriously.
The central figure in this research institution, who is also one of the high-level advisors, is naturally Ming Hong.
Within the entire Human Civilization System, only Ming Hong has a certain understanding of All Heavens.
Secondly, there is the Space-Time Beast that Shen Hao acquired in the last Trial's settlement.
Although the name is ordinary, the combination of Ming Hong's knowledge of All Heavens and the abilities of the Space-Time Beast has truly given Human Civilization the opportunity to explore the stage of All Heavens.
For over a hundred years, this structure has been continuously engaged in exploration.
And exploring All Heavens is far more difficult than exploring the Multi-dimensional Universe in the last Trial.
The key lies in the "Independent World".
Every world in All Heavens is a truly independent existence; it cannot be related to any other world according to Extraordinary Rules, nor can it through material rules.
Without connection, under normal circumstances, it's even impossible to determine that other worlds truly exist, let alone go in search of them.
Even the Eighth Stage Civilization Mall has not touched upon any knowledge in this domain.
