After advancing to the knockout round, Yang Fan returned to the area where No. 3 Middle School was located, closed his eyes, and sank his consciousness into the awakening space.
At this time, the competition of Group 24 had just ended, and there were still eight groups to go. It would take at least another hour before the elimination round would begin.
Therefore, Yang Fan decided to use this time to continue cultivating the civilization on Blue Star, to further improve his own strength, and by the way, to familiarize himself with some new combat methods that have emerged on Blue Star, in preparation for the more intense elimination rounds later.
At this time on the Blue Star, the world of immortal cultivation was thriving and developing vigorously.
Under Yang Fan's deliberate guidance, the monks' minds became very open, and they dared to try various different ways of practice and create their own magical powers.
Although most of them failed, those that remained were excellent products with broad room for development. They were continuously improved under the inheritance and development of successive generations of monks and gradually formed a complete system.
There is no problem with the human cultivators for the time being, but the situation of the spirit beasts has become increasingly difficult as the strength of the human cultivators has gradually increased. Their habitats have been continuously eroded, and they are in danger of extinction.
On Blue Planet, the conflict between humans and spirit beasts has a long history.
When the Great Xia Dynasty was first established, humans had not yet embarked on the path of cultivating immortals. The spiritual beasts on the sacred mountain sneered at humans and disdained them, believing that humans would never be a threat to them.
During this period, the conflicts between humans and spirit beasts were not too great. It was only because some humans who strayed into the sacred mountain were brutally killed by spirit beasts that the residents of the entire Great Xia Dynasty hated and feared the spirit beasts.
Later, under Yang Fan's guidance, humans gradually embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, and some extremely talented cultivators emerged, which made the spiritual beasts gradually feel threatened, and they carried out many "cleaning" operations against humans.
If Yang Fan had not been secretly manipulating the situation, humanity would have probably perished in those horrific beast tides long ago.
From then on, the conflict between humans and spirit beasts became irreconcilable. Both wanted to eliminate the other as soon as possible, and it seemed that the fight would never end until one of them died.
After stabilizing the situation, human cultivators gradually surpassed the spirit beasts and created a prosperous era of cultivation, with all kinds of magical powers, elixirs, and magic tools emerging one after another.
However, spiritual beasts do not have the same inheritance ability and talent for creating tools as humans, and their development speed is as slow as a snail's pace compared to humans.
In just tens of thousands of years, the spiritual beasts that had been stagnant were completely surpassed by the rapidly developing human civilization.
Humans began to counterattack the spiritual beasts, and with overwhelming force, they drove the spiritual beasts off the sacred mountain and forced them into a dead end.
As arrogant as the spiritual beasts were in the past and as disdainful of humans as they were, their situation is now as difficult as it is now.
Yang Fan saw all of this, but did not try to stop it. He just controlled it secretly to prevent the spiritual beast from going extinct.
The immortal cultivation civilization cultivated by Yang Fan is mainly based on human cultivators. Of course, it is impossible to allow the spirit beasts and cultivators on the Blue Star to be in a state of equal strength. Only human cultivators can stand in the dominant position of civilization.
If spiritual beasts want to survive in this environment, they must make certain changes, otherwise they will perish.
Yang Fan wanted to use this desperate situation to force these spiritual beasts, otherwise they would always have the old ideas of the past, unable to keep up with the pace of human development, and would be of no use to the advancement of immortal civilization.
The spiritual beasts, whose situations became increasingly dire and whose living conditions became increasingly difficult, finally realized that humans were far stronger than them.
Some of the stubborn spirit beasts were still unwilling to change. They would rather be hunted by human monks than give up their pride. They looked down on humans until their death.
But when their race was in danger, more spiritual beasts finally came to their senses and began to actively seek ways to survive in human society.
A small number of spiritual beasts chose to surrender to humans, accept domestication by humans, and become subordinates of humans.
Some clever and cute spiritual beasts are taken as pets by human monks. Although they live under the roofs of humans and inevitably have to rely on humans for their food, they still have a way to survive.
However, spiritual beasts that can become pets have very high requirements for appearance and personality. Most spiritual beasts cannot meet this condition. Even if they are willing to become human pets, if they are too large or have a scary appearance, they will often be rejected very decisively by human monks.
Moreover, many spiritual beasts have a bloodiness in their bones and are born to fight. Letting them be pets for humans, acting cute and coquettish, and winning the favor of their owners is even more painful than killing them.
However, humans have become the masters of the blue planet, and the spiritual beasts have no way to survive unless they submit to humans.
So, after years of exploration, these spiritual beasts who wanted to become vassals of humans but were unwilling to act coquettishly and cutely finally found a new way to survive, which is to become humans' combat partners and mounts.
Spirit beasts are born with stronger bodies than humans, and their talent for physical training is also stronger than humans. They can produce good results when cooperating with humans in battle.
Moreover, many spirit beasts are tall and have great endurance. They can travel without sleep and are born with the talent to become mounts.
Spiritual beasts on land can run fast in the jungle, and spiritual beasts with wings can carry monks to the sky. No matter which method is used, it is much faster than humans traveling on their own.
In addition, having a spirit beast with a fierce appearance and powerful cultivation as a mount is also a symbol of status for a cultivator.
However, at the beginning, the relationship between spirit beasts and humans progressed very slowly, and both sides had concerns.
After all, the conflict between spiritual beasts and humans has a long history, and no one knows what the other side is planning.
The first spirit beast to become a human mount happened to meet a kind-hearted monk who was generous towards spirit beasts, and so chose to try to become a human's fighting partner.
Because of the good results, more and more spirit beasts joined the team, and the cooperation between spirit beasts and humans gradually got on track.
After years of fighting side by side and living together day and night, the status of spiritual beasts in the hearts of human monks has gradually increased.
Even some spiritual beasts with brilliant military achievements and great contributions have a status in the hearts of cultivators comparable to that of biological brothers, and will be buried with great honor by their masters after death.
During the long process of development, spirit beasts gradually became important partners of human monks and played an irreplaceable role. However, due to various reasons, only a few monks could obtain spirit beast partners.
In order to meet the urgent needs of the majority of cultivators for spiritual beast companions, cultivators proficient in the art of taming beasts established a sect specifically for this purpose, the Beast Taming Sect.
The disciples of the Beast Taming Sect are responsible for taming and breeding spirit beasts, expanding the size of the spirit beast population and enabling more and more cultivators to obtain their own spirit beast mounts.
From then on, the hostility between humans and spirit beasts ended, and cooperation and symbiosis became the mainstream trend in the relationship between spirit beasts and monks.
