The Eighth Myth, the Jiahao Behavior

[White Porridge City, the Marshal’s Residence.]

[In other words, your current home.]

[You are receiving two people in the study.]

[One of them is Liu Ying.]

[She is currently only a corporal.]

[This uprising is different from the last one. Back then, the rebel army was pursued by the enemy the entire way and had virtually no time to cultivate, so most of them had low cultivation levels. As a result, Liu Ying was able to rise through the ranks by military merit.]

[This time, you had ample time to prepare, and many of the rebels with immortal roots were rapidly advancing in cultivation.]

[Even though Liu Ying was the first person to step forward and follow you, you could not make an exception for her. She could only be promoted fairly, based on military merit.]

[The other person was named Xiang Xing.]

[You remembered him and had been keeping an eye on him all along.]

[That was because he was the only person in the entire human race of Fortune Star with a second-grade immortal root—the very same person you had met in your previous simulation!]

“Yingzi, I want you to study artifact refinement under Senior the old demon—no, Senior Granny Duobao. Once you’ve learned enough, I’ll transfer you to the Divine Mechanism Battalion.”

[The Divine Mechanism Battalion consisted entirely of artifact refiners.]

[You knew that because your rebel army generally had low cultivation—or none at all—it would be heavily dependent on equipment in the short term.]

[That was why you had specially established this battalion to manufacture, manage, and maintain equipment for the entire army.]

[At present, the Divine Mechanism Battalion had very few people: only Granny Duobao, her disciple, and several artifact refiners from other races.]

[Although the other races were not worthy of trust, you could eavesdrop on their thoughts. Whenever you recruited someone from another race, you would listen to their inner voice and determine whether they had genuinely pledged allegiance.]

[With manpower in short supply, you had no choice but to make temporary use of the other races.]

[Liu Ying had no immortal root and could not cultivate.]

[It would be difficult for her to accomplish much if she remained in a regular combat unit. In particular, as more and more people became cultivators, it was obvious how difficult it would be for mortal soldiers to earn merit in the army.]

[Although artifact refiners were ideally cultivators, there was still plenty of work that non-cultivators could do.]

[Liu Ying had no objections whatsoever to your arrangement.]

“I will obey the Marshal’s orders.”

[You thought for a moment, then said:]

“If you want to remain in a combat unit, that’s fine too. I respect your own wishes.”

“I have no wishes of my own! I’ll do whatever the Marshal arranges! Wherever the Marshal needs me, that’s where I’ll go!”

[You said no more and turned your attention to Xiang Xing.]

“I hear you’ve reached the Grand Completion stage of the Xiantian realm.”

[Xiang Xing looked both flattered and overwhelmed.]

“I was merely fortunate enough to succeed. How could I possibly deserve the Marshal’s attention? I’m ashamed!”

“You didn’t succeed through luck. You have a second-grade immortal root and excellent aptitude.”

[Through the Human Body Scanner, you could see that Xiang Xing possessed only a second-grade immortal root. He had neither a special constitution nor a special soul.]

[Even so, a second-grade immortal root was enough to place him among the ranks of geniuses.]

[Just look at the attitude the Winged God Cult had shown toward second-grade immortal roots in the previous simulation. They had crushed Xiang Xing into a bloody mess with a giant hammer on the spot.]

[The Winged God Cult understood better than anyone what a second-grade immortal root meant among the human race. They were unwilling to take even the slightest risk.]

[If he were on a first-tier star, the other races might not care as much about a second-grade immortal root possessed by a human. After all, the foreign-race forces on first-tier stars were stronger, giving them the confidence that came with superior strength.]

“Thank you for the praise, Marshal! I’ll certainly continue working hard at my cultivation!”

“Working hard won’t help you anymore. Fortune Star is a third-tier star, and it has no immortal qi. If you want to advance further, you’ll have to go to a second-tier star.”

“Didn’t the Marshal say that once we’ve purged all of Fortune Star, we’ll attack Lingwei Star? Once we go to Lingwei Star, there will naturally be immortal qi.”

“That will still take several years. I want to send you to a second-tier star ahead of time so you can cultivate there.”

[Upon hearing this, Xiang Xing hesitated.]

“Marshal, if I go, won’t I miss the rebel army’s future battles?”

“My Voyager starship is fast, but even traveling back and forth would take three or four years. Don’t waste your time on the journey. Once you get there, focus on cultivating in peace. I’ll come find you.”

[You wanted to send Xiang Xing to Blazing Light Star.]

[Once the Feathered Star System was occupied, your next step would be to head to Blazing Light Star.]

[Xiang Xing’s aptitude was exceptional, and you hoped he could grow as quickly as possible and help bolster the rebel army’s top combat strength.]

[However, Xiang Xing refused.]

“Marshal, forgive me, but I cannot obey this order!”

“Why? Don’t you want to improve your cultivation?”

“I do! But I want even more to live and die alongside my brothers in the rebel army and defeat the Winged God Cult! If I miss the all-out war to come, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life!”

“If you continue participating in the war, you’re more likely to die on the battlefield. I won’t give you special treatment because of your aptitude. Every rebel brother’s life is equally important to me, regardless of whether they possess the aptitude for cultivation.”

“The Marshal is wise! If you gave me special treatment, I would only feel ashamed. I wouldn’t deserve to stand alongside my brothers in the rebel army!”

[You fell silent. You felt that something had already begun to take root within the rebel army.]

[It was probably thanks to the political education sessions you held for the entire army once a week.]

[In the previous simulation, you had educated the rebels while they were on the march.]

[This time, circumstances were much better. Every week, you organized study sessions for the army within White Porridge City.]

[In peacetime, every battalion and squad also had political instructors of varying ranks, responsible for eradicating illiteracy and providing ideological education.]

“Very well. I respect your wishes.”

“Thank you, Marshal!”

[Although the preparations were not yet entirely complete, the opportunity for war waited for no one.]

[The following year would see the beginning of the all-out war. Every day, the rebel army in White Porridge City was intensifying its training, cultivation, and practice with its weapons and armor.]

[As a second-grade formation master, you had even designed unique military formations for the rebel army.]

[By consuming source stones and using certain magical artifacts in coordination, even a group of mortals could form an immensely powerful battle formation capable of threatening high-level cultivators.]

[On the battlefield, they could produce strategic-level effects.]

[If these formations were made up of cultivators, their power would be even greater.]

[Year Ten, age thirty-six.]

[Drawing a new trait…]

[Drawing successful!]

[“Jiahao Behavior” (Prismatic Myth):]

[Friend, you and I may appear to be peers of the same age, but in truth, we do not belong to the same world. You cannot understand what lies within my heart. (Lowers his head while putting on the hood of a black hoodie.)]

[Whenever someone around you performs a Jiahao behavior—the behavior must come from the genuine Jiahao within them; it will not take effect if you prompted them to do it—you will accumulate Jiahao Points.]

[Neither you nor your clones will accumulate points by performing Jiahao behaviors.]

[You can gain a maximum of 100 Jiahao Points per day, and the same individual can provide you with no more than 100 points per year.]

[Jiahao Points can be spent to exchange for the following effects:]

[1. Directly break through a cultivation bottleneck. The number of points required depends on the realm you need to break through to.]

[2. Lower another individual’s cultivation, up to the point where it matches your own. The required number of points will be affected by three factors: your cultivation realm, the gap between your realm and the other person’s, and the extent to which you wish to lower their cultivation.]

3. Spend 1,000 points to exchange for one Jiahao Mission. You may undertake it only once a year. If the people around you think your actions are very Jiahao, you can receive a large number of points all at once, even exceeding the daily acquisition limit.

Oh~ I’m simply too mysterious.
