"Teacher Li, there can't be a mistake, right?" Wang Zhenyu's face twitched down in the audience.
Losing to Li Shuhao was something he accepted wholeheartedly; after all, the other party had a B-Rank Building.
But why did Yang Fan have such a high Prosperity Rating? Neither his buildings nor his assets showed anything particularly special.
The only outrageous thing was the believer population. You had to know that he had just undergone Awakening, and as soon as he got home, he used a Breeding Card. Why was there such a huge gap?
And to top it off, some believers had even achieved entry into the Federal Body Refinement Technique.
Was this right? This was very wrong.
Only a little over twenty years had passed in the Divine Kingdom, and this Federal Body Refinement Technique was created by a High-Order God, with infinite profound changes. Relying just on some uncultured Barbarians, how could they possibly achieve entry without a hundred or eighty years?
The more Wang Zhenyu thought about it, the more outrageous it felt, so he directly questioned the result given by the Intelligent Lifeform.
"Shut up! The computational power of the Federal Government's Intelligent Lifeform is comparable to a High-Order God. How could it possibly be wrong?" Li Qingying directly waved her hand to interrupt, a powerful divine aura suppressing the students present into silence.
Li Qingying then turned her head to look at Yang Fan and said, "The population number is easy to solve, but I'm very curious—how could your believers achieve entry into the Federal Body Refinement Technique in such a short time? Your development progress is probably comparable to those geniuses in Class 1."
After all, Li Qingying was a First-Order God, and her insight was naturally not something these students could compare with.
Taking twenty years in the Divine Kingdom to pull the population from a few hundred to one hundred thousand wasn't actually difficult.
Breeding Cards above C-rank or certain special buildings could achieve this.
It was just that most people wouldn't choose to operate this way because the burden on the Divine Kingdom would be far too severe.
However, achieving entry into the Federal Body Refinement Technique was extremely difficult. With the Divine Kingdom newly established and the believers' Aptitude being low, they either had to grind it out with time or use heavenly and earthly treasuress or special buildings to raise the believers' Aptitude.
If it were placed within a major Clan, Li Qingying wouldn't be surprised at all. As long as one was willing to invest, even a trash Physique like that of the Barbarians could be smashed into a Cultivating Genius.
But Yang Fan was just a child from an ordinary Clan, which made this stand out as abrupt.
"Teacher Li, when my believers reproduced to the third and fourth generations, a few Geniuses emerged. Afterwards, I descended a Divine Decree to let them focus on Cultivating, with plenty of the Bodhi Treasure Snake's flesh and blood provided, and that was how they barely achieved entry yesterday." Yang Fan had already thought of an explanation.
The better the believers' Aptitude, the higher the probability of their descendants possessing Geniuses. However, descendants of believers with ordinary Aptitude were not necessarily bad either; under a huge base number, one or two Geniuses would always be born.
And most importantly, this kind of probability issue simply could not be explained away. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
"You certainly have good luck." Li Qingying chuckled softly.
Li Qingying did not doubt this. After the advent of the Divine Kingdom Era, bizarre stories and events were countless, and Yang Fan's situation could only shock these students.
Watching the students tremble under her aura oppression, Li Qingying withdrew her divine aura and asked, "Do you all feel that Yang Fan's Prosperity Rating evaluation is unfair?"
"That's right, other people aside, Li Shuhao's Divine Kingdom is obviously stronger than Yang Fan's, and he even has a B-Rank Building like the Hundred Spirits Blood Pool. How could his score be so much lower than Yang Fan's?" Wang Zhenyu raised his question.
Yang Fan's believer identity was ancients, and based on this point alone, Wang Zhenyu felt he was inferior, but Li Shuhao wasn't bad either.
Moreover, the gap in data between the two was too large. Strictly speaking of asset value within the Divine Kingdom, Li Shuhao was probably hundreds of times that of Yang Fan.
Li Qingying explained, "The competition of the Prosperity Rating is not about the overall strength of the Divine Kingdom, but the stability of the current ecosystem. Do you think it's really that simple for the Federal Intelligent Lifeform to give an excellent comprehensive evaluation?"
Seeing everyone puzzled, Li Qingying directly called out Wang Zhenyu: "How many Faith Points do you have to invest in your Divine Kingdom every day now?"
"About 25,000 Faith Points," Wang Zhenyu replied.
"Your population is only about 1/8 of Yang Fan's, yet he can be self-sufficient while you still have to invest so much every day. Don't you feel there is a problem with yourself?"
"This..." Wang Zhenyu was struck dumb.
He naturally knew the current flaws of his Divine Kingdom. It would definitely be fake to say he didn't feel his heart ache when investing over 20,000 Faith Points every day.
It was just that Wang Zhenyu couldn't figure out how Yang Fan managed to do it. With such a large population, and back in the Early Stage of the Divine Kingdom's development, how could he feed them relying purely on himself?
"This is the importance of theoretical knowledge." After finishing, Li Qingying's gaze toward Yang Fan became increasingly satisfied.
"Theoretical knowledge is not unimportant. Do you think that just throwing various biological Resources into the Divine Kingdom brainlessly settles everything? If it were really that simple, apart from universities, all basic education schools could be demolished.
Take the Bodhi Treasure Snake, for example: what kind of environment is suitable for its Breeding? Is it a lush mountain forest, or a damp and dark mountain stream?
Aside from the living environment, what is the most suitable source of food for it?
If the living conditions are too luxurious, will it lead to over-Breeding? Should natural predators be introduced or not?
How should the distance between your believers' habitats and these food sources be controlled? Is it necessary to descend a Divine Decree to prevent over-hunting?
What plants are suitable for growing by the river? What is suitable for wasteland? Which ones are not afraid of severe cold? Even the most basic plants contain profound knowledge. You are reading on novelping.com, the official source.
If you all listened attentively in class and frequently went to the school library to study after class, you could plan ahead at the very beginning of investing the cards. Doing so could significantly increase the Resource utilization rate of the Divine Kingdom.
Of course, animals and plants will undergo survival of the fittest. Animals will migrate if living conditions are poor, and plants will die naturally.
But all of these require time. I can responsibly tell everyone that if these completely rely on the Divine Kingdom's self-regulation, it would take at least several hundred years.
Put into reality, perhaps your entire high school years would have passed by then."
"Today counts as a very good example, and I hope everyone can attach importance to theory classes."
Hearing this, everyone's faces revealed a look of sudden realization. At this moment, the gazes they directed at Yang Fan were somewhat different.
Previously, they only knew that Yang Fan was low-key and not good with words. Who would have thought he was actually a hidden academic Genius who frequently hung out in the library?
Li Shuhao also looked at Yang Fan curiously, unable to help wondering inwardly: "I didn't run into him in the library? Could it be that he borrowed books from the Federal Government's public library?"
Seeing that the educational goal had been achieved, Li Qingying directly announced the end of class: "The rewards for second to tenth place will be directly deposited into your Divine Kingdoms. Everyone else is dismissed, Yang Fan, come with me."
Li Qingying grabbed Yang Fan's left hand, and the bodies of the two turned into light blue data and disappeared before everyone's eyes.
In an instant, the two appeared inside an office.
"Do you feel very proud? That you have already surpassed your classmates by several hundred years?" Li Qingying asked.
"This student wouldn't dare."
Regarding Li Qingying's guesswork, Yang Fan could only say that his strength entirely relied on other people's wild imaginations.
Yang Fan learned the Divine Kingdom's theoretical knowledge quite well, but it was absolutely impossible to consider things this comprehensively. The reason his Prosperity Rating evaluation was so high relied entirely on the Divine Kingdom's self-regulation over two hundred years.
It's just that even if he said these words out loud himself, probably no one would believe it.
