Chapter 1 The New Headquarters of the Tribunal

The new headquarters of the Tribunal is very impressive. Floors one through forty are free training grounds for superhuman practitioners within the system.

There is no need to worry about [Access Control].

The entrance to this headquarters building is guarded by [Deep Sea]. Only the mid-level positions require manual verification. Gu Shen just wants to stroll around. Even without [Source Code] modifying the access control, he can easily enter the building with his authority.

Superhuman practitioners come and go in the Tribunal headquarters.

Every day, a large number of trainee adjudicators take on tasks. The Tribunal provides "breathing techniques" and "sealed objects" as rewards, but enough merit points are required to redeem them.

After awakening superhuman abilities and passing the [Deep Sea] background check.

The best way for these trainee adjudicators to become stronger is to take on tasks released by the [Deep Water Zone] mental network.

They can form their own teams or choose to perform tasks alone.

In recent years, the [Deep Sea] main system has been upgraded again. Its computing power is now sufficient to cover the entire Eastern Continent. The adjudicators in the Nagano region can be recorded wherever they go. In the case of multi-person tasks, the mental network will evaluate each person’s performance, and finally allocate and assess merit points.

"There are more people here than I imagined."

Xiao Gai can only be an ordinary adjudicator. Gu Shen said, "But you are right. Nagano is full of big shots. I just got an important message. This 'recruitment' is different from the past. It is said that several adjudicators are paying attention... This young man is probably a disciple under one of the adjudicators, or a young junior apprentice, checking for good seedlings for the sect."

This young man exudes a faint pressure. He does look intimidating. How dare they from the remote Qinghe District rashly extend their mental power to investigate?

Lao Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Xu Fang, has the [Deep Sea]'s preliminary list been drafted? Can the information on the match schedule be seen?"

"Xu Fang, this is Nagano. Don't talk nonsense. Although I can't investigate, I'm sure he's a very powerful superhuman practitioner."

The young man stood outside the dojo fence, with the teenagers, curiously looking at the dojo.

Huo Ying couldn't help feeling a little dazed in his heart. He couldn't help but smile.

"Lao Yu, why are you so late?"

What really attracted Brother Xu's attention were the dozen or so ignorant teenagers behind the middle-aged superhuman practitioner.

As long as one is strong, even if it's late in life, it doesn't matter. Nagano will not miss any capable and ambitious "person with lofty ideals".

"Our eyes met, so what?"

The Guwen Society has already been destroyed once by [Deep Sea]. Brother Xu will not let that happen a second time.

"Did you remember everything I told you before?" The middle-aged superhuman practitioner's voice was very soft, for fear of disturbing Huo Ying.

As expected.

Just as he thought, the completion of the new Tribunal headquarters will attract a large number of young superhuman practitioners... These teenagers have a part of his own shadow from back then.

For example, the fire element. On a certain floor of the dojo, there is an exclusive "lava simulation room". The ice element uses sealed objects to maintain a "snowfield environment".

The Nagano headquarters' "recruitment" has age restrictions.

The middle-aged superhuman practitioner nodded to Brother Xu again. Brother Xu smiled slightly and watched the teenagers leave. He had no destination, so he followed them out of the elevator.

The elevator closed. The middle-aged superhuman practitioner checked the number of people in the team. He reached out and put his arms around the teenagers around him and said softly, "This time to Nagano to participate in the dojo trials is not an opportunity that can be easily obtained... Not many people in Qinghe District are qualified to come in a year. You must seize it well."

"This recruitment has adjudicators paying attention?"

Some people will be trapped here for the rest of their lives. The middle-aged superhuman practitioner named "Xu Fang" saw the young man who walked out of the elevator with Lao Yu, stunned for a moment, and whispered, "Who is this?"

Gu Shen's expression was a little complicated.

Some people are brave and精进 (jing jin - diligent), and can reach this superhuman realm in three or five years...

The [Deep Sea] network will always be just a tool.

"A big shot from Nagano who has come to the Tribunal headquarters for the first time?"

Brother Xu raised his eyebrows.

The Tribunal headquarters has spared no expense.

However, there are no absolutes. This era will not bury any stars.

The elevator went straight up to the seventieth floor. After listening to the conversations of these people, Huo Ying roughly understood the situation.

Mental, elemental, and strong attack are the three major types of superhuman practitioners...

...Different improvements can be obtained in different dojos. The speed of the times is too fast.

But... they also need to bear greater responsibilities. "Ding."

It's just that the Tribunal headquarters retains the final authority of the [Tribunal Archives], so every task must be received and handed over in the real world, requiring them to come to the building to complete the procedures.

Elemental superhuman practitioners, wanting to find a natural environment suitable for absorbing source matter, is actually not difficult.

In fact, this realm is not bad.

Regardless of Jiangbei or Jiangnan, as long as they are young superhuman practitioners with talent and ability, they can enter the headquarters through this "recruitment".

Most of these superhuman practitioners are only eighteen or nineteen years old, and the youngest looks no more than seventeen or eighteen.

These teenagers nodded one after another: "...We remember."

The mental dojo for mental superhuman practitioners is equipped with sealed objects to stabilize the mind. The effect cannot be compared with Honghu, but it is also not bad... It is probably a simplified version of the "Mind Cleansing Pool". It should be noted that this is a mental dojo that is open for free. Every superhuman practitioner can enter it. Although the areas are divided, it is also forbidden for superhuman practitioners of other types to enter.

The right to wield the tool must be in the hands of humans. But this handwriting is also quite amazing.

Lao Yu looked back.

Seventy floors of dojos, there are many such teams, already gathered.

All of this can be done in the [Deep Sea] network.

How could there be big shots who curiously look at the Tribunal dojo like seventeen or eighteen-year-old children?

The most expensive is the elemental type.

The peak of the seventh rank is not a bad realm in a small place. "Poof..."

Brother Xu seemed to be looking at his nose with his eyes and his heart, but in fact he was paying attention to the whispers of the teenagers.

Gu Shen couldn't help but transmit mentally, but this was just a joke.

Just as the elevator was about to close... someone reached out and stopped the elevator switch.

Under his efforts, the highest levels of Nagano and Kyoto have reached a unified will.

But in Nagano, it is commonplace.

The strong attack type is equipped with a large number of mithril gravity training rooms.

Looking at the immaturity and hope in the eyebrows of these teenagers. Those over twenty years old are basically prohibited from participating in the "recruitment".

Of course, this is, after all, artificially collected resources. The conversion efficiency cannot be compared with the superhuman miracles nurtured by nature.

When he was still practicing in Nagano, the [Deep Sea] network was not as developed as it is now. Now the entire building is taken over by [Deep Sea]. The superhuman practitioners who come and go mostly just brush past each other. What do they have to say? They receive tasks, choose to team up with acquaintances, and then complete the tasks.

Gu Shen walked and muttered to himself.

"From a convenience point of view, this is actually a good idea."

Brother Xu said lightly, "But unfortunately, I won't let this proposal pass."

After all, superhuman practitioners with talent for cultivation are still a minority in this world.

The superhuman practitioner who stopped the elevator was about twenty years old. He looked weathered, with kind eyes and eyebrows. His superhuman realm had reached the eighth level.

"Please wait a moment."

Lao Yu immediately relaxed. The more he looked at the young man leaning on the railing, the more he looked like he came from under a certain remarkable adjudicator.

The Nagano Tribunal headquarters regularly launches "talent recruitment" every year.

Lao Yu solemnly said, "I just made eye contact with him in the elevator."

And today, they will decide whether these teenagers' fates can leap.

"According to this development speed, soon no one will come to the headquarters building to handle tasks."

Those superhuman practitioners born in remote places, if they can seize this opportunity, they can usher in a leap in fate. Their growth rate will be greatly accelerated, but as "feedback," the number and difficulty of the tasks they need to perform each year will also increase.

These people are from Qinghe District?

These teenagers are silently reciting the headquarters' building plan.

The leading middle-aged superhuman practitioner nodded slightly to Brother Xu. "Thank you."

Coincidentally, from the same place as himself. "You're welcome."

Staying at the headquarters will enjoy more resources.

"Wouldn't that be a contestant participating in the 'recruitment' as well?"

After these people entered, the spacious elevator suddenly became much more crowded.

"I... don't know him."

"It's okay, I'm using mental transmission. He can't hear it."

Brother Xu entered the building and pressed the elevator button.

"It's out... This 'recruitment' is very difficult." Chu Ling said, "Someone in the Eastern Continent Council has already proposed that [Deep Sea] take full control of task release... The law enforcement officers within the eight systems will directly complete task assignments through the mental network."

Today there will be a "recruitment". Young superhuman practitioners from all over will conduct some simple trials. Those outstanding "geniuses" among them will stay in Nagano.

The middle-aged superhuman practitioner was obviously not from Nagano, so his expression was carefree.

The Tribunal dojo has spent a lot of effort collecting "universal resources" from various elemental systems to provide superhuman practitioners of each elemental system with the experience of "elemental absorption" after refinement.

Brother Xu nodded politely and said nothing. The seventieth floor arrived.

"I encountered some things and was slightly delayed."

Lao Yu smiled bitterly and lowered his voice, "We met in the elevator. We came together on the way. I always thought he was a big shot from Nagano."

(ps: Recent chapters are transitional chapters, and the plot is relatively fragmented. I hope everyone is not in a hurry. For the sake of the integrity of the full text, some small pits outside Nagano need to be filled in slowly~ There will be another update tonight. Friends who can't wait can go to sleep first~)
