Before awakening the talent, emptying the mind is a very important step.
Through the sharing of countless successful awakenings, Lu Lin knows.
When the talent awakens, the Awakener will enter into the Consciousness Universe. The more empty the mind, the more likely they are to discover that Awakening Light in the Consciousness Universe.
By using consciousness to guide the Awakening Light and linking it to the Star Core within one's body, forming the unique Star Veins of a Star Core Warrior, it means awakening success, becoming a Quasi-star Core Warrior.
This also involves a little common knowledge.
The color of the Awakening Light can somewhat assist in determining the attributes: red is fire, blue is water, green is wood, gold is metal, yellow is earth.
But it is limited to the basic Five Elements Attribute judgment. If it's some special attribute, it can't be judged by the color of the Awakening Light.
The electromagnetic levitation bus door closed, and after Teacher Li got on, he used the biological chip in his body to connect and verify with the bus's control computer and set the destination.
The stationary electromagnetic levitation bus smoothly lifted off, the body slightly moving, almost unnoticeable that it was already traveling.
"Students, everyone quiet down."
Teacher Li clapped his hands, and over a hundred students in the bus turned their heads simultaneously.
"We will arrive at the Ministry of Education's Awakening Base in fifteen minutes. Before that, please attend to your personal hygiene. Students who need to can go to the washroom in the middle of the carriage."
"Okay, since no one is going, I'll briefly say a few words."
Teacher Li glanced around, cleared his throat, and said:
"For most students, the beautiful student era is about to end. For those who fail to awaken later, outside the Awakening Base, there is an electronic recruitment fair organized by tens of thousands of companies and organizations across the Nine Planets, including major cross-planet companies like Deep Space Bank, QingShan Network, and Federal Mobile. Interested students can take note."
"The school will also have some school-run enterprise recruitments, the benefits of entering school-run enterprises need not be elaborated, right?"
"No need, Teacher Li, we already know."
"You can work and live on Blue Star, enjoy the blessings of Blue Star, enhance life intensity and the awakening probability of the next generation."
The students chattered enthusiastically.
"Alright, since everyone already knows, I won't dwell on it."
"Now, on to the main topic."
Teacher Li straightened up, his expression serious: "Successful awakened students do not rush to leave, inform me of the awakening result, attribute, and the refinement level of the initial Star Vein at the first time. Teachers from the School Star Core Specialty will guide everyone to understand the first skill and initially confirm future development directions. Meanwhile, your citizen information also needs to be recorded and updated."
"Then it's about filling in the application and choosing the desired Star Core Warrior University."
"As everyone knows, Star Martial Arts University pays most attention to the refinement level of the initial Star Vein. This point has been a perennial topic."
"During awakening, try to guide the Awakening Light as quickly as possible, the faster the speed, the higher the initial refinement degree."
"As for the strength of the Star Veins, resilience, and Star Power capacity, conversion efficiency, etc., you will encounter these in university."
"Alright, after saying so much, let me tell you some good news."
Seeing the students on the bus looking solemn, Teacher Li smiled to help them relax.
"According to data from the Tongyuan Ministry of Education, the awakening rate of candidates from the Nine Planets in last year's college entrance exam reached 9.98%, basically awakening one among every ten people."
"Looking at our Blue Star data, the number of candidates who took the college entrance exam last year reached a new high, as high as 1.24 billion people, among which the number of successful awakenings is..."
Teacher Li deliberately left suspense. Seeing some students urging eagerly, he said unhurriedly:
"The number of successful awakenings last year was 24 million."
"Hiss—24 million?"
"24 million awakenings, doesn't that mean the awakening rate reached 19.35%!!!"
"This data is nearly double that of the entire galaxy. It's not in vain that my mom and dad worked hard to send me to study on Blue Star."
"No wonder they say Blue Star is the mother planet of all humans, this awakening probability is much higher than other planets."
After knowing the data, someone quickly calculated the awakening rate of Blue Star's college entrance exam candidates.
There was a buzz of discussions inside the bus, with nearly a hundred students expressing surprise.
They were in a similar situation to Lu Lin, with parents working on other planets, striving hard, saving for years to send their child to Blue Star, all for Blue Star's blessings, for that significantly higher awakening probability compared to other planets.
"Yes, last year's awakening rate was already very close to 20%, and this year, the Ministry of Education's goal is for your generation to reach a higher level, aiming for an awakening rate breakthrough of 20%."
"Students, time waits for no one. The situation of humans on the exotic battlefield is not as optimistic as the outside reports, and the combat damage ratio of Star Core Warriors is also high."
"Blue Star needs you, humans need you!"
"Awakening success is not only for your future but also for the future of all humankind."
"Here, as your teacher, I earnestly request everyone—"
"During awakening, empty your mind as much as possible, and guide the Awakening Light as quickly as possible. Once you become a Star Core Warrior, your parents, teachers, school, and even the entire Tongyuan will be proud of you."
Teacher Li's words stirred the emotions of the students on the bus, eager to reach the Awakening Base, guide the Awakening Light, link the Star Veins, become Star Core Warriors, and reach the pinnacle of life.
As he spoke, the electromagnetic levitation bus slowly stopped, and getting off was the three-dimensional honeycomb-like Awakening Base entrance.
Each year, with over a million candidates in Tongyuan City awakening here, a flat Awakening Base cannot meet the demands of such a massive number of candidates, so Tongyuan Municipal invested heavily seventeen years ago to build this brand-new Awakening Base.
C3-3003 Entrance.
Lu Lin and his classmates entered the awakening space together.
This awakening space is specially prepared for their class, with over 100 silver-white technologically advanced helmets hanging down inside, allowing each person to choose individually.
The metal elastic cord connected to the top of the helmet is the real key to guiding candidates initially into the Consciousness Universe.
Lu Lin found his spot, took a deep breath, and put on the helmet.
"Candidate Lu Lin, Citizen Number LXHX320102202112120305, do you wish to begin awakening?"
"Yes."
"Please wait..."
"Please wait..."
In the melodious rhythm, accompanied by a mechanical voice, Lu Lin gently closed his eyes, emptying his mind with the help of the music.
The sensation of weightlessness appeared only for a moment.
When he sensed the outside world again, Lu Lin found himself in a dark starry sky.
Vacuum.
Weightlessness.
This is his Consciousness Universe.
Lu Lin emptied his mind, trying to make this starry sky feel his presence as much as possible.
Suddenly.
A golden light appeared before Lu Lin's eyes.
Awakening Light!
The dazzling golden Awakening Light seemed to suddenly shoot over from afar or might have been there for eternity, only quickly appearing after sensing Lu Lin's consciousness.
No matter the case, it appeared.
Lu Lin immediately released his consciousness to guide forward.
The Awakening Light was pulled towards him without any resistance.
However, Lu Lin felt a slight unease in his heart.
Something's off.
This golden Awakening Light didn't seem to be the Gold System he'd long anticipated, but rather the Earth Element.
