"Director Zhou, how are you going to groom us?" Xu Jingming was a little puzzled.

"In the aspects of martial arts and life evolution." Director Zhou smiled at Xu Jingming. "Don't tell me you believe that the Cosmos Tower in the virtual world was solely set up to determine the world's number one and two. Countries have also set up some form of cup for experts to compete, and it's all just a game?"

Xu Jingming's heart tightened. He had long felt that something was amiss.

The officials' systematic guidance allowed the commoners around the world to spend most of their time in the virtual world under the premise that they continued with their day jobs. If it was just for life evolution, ordinary people could easily evolve and double their lifespans with a little practice.

"This isn't just a game," Director Zhou said. "To a certain extent, the virtual world determines more than half of Earth's fate in the future."
