Under Sullo's command, the divine domain developed rapidly with the four great believer races' hard work.
The faith power Sullo obtained had also increased greatly, more than twice as much as before.
Meanwhile, the War Theological Seminary had also opened up its second class—Divine Advancement—which was related to advancing one's divine domain.
In comparison to the first class which could only increase one's combat power, it now looked just like an 'appetizer' that was unworthy of gracing the main dining table.
The one in charge of the lecture was his teacher, the Nine-Star High God Gan Yutong.
Sullo had secluded himself for half a year to cultivate the Spatial Gate and had participated in yet another trial journey.
Despite the time that had passed, his teacher was still as elegant as ever, with graceful bearings and a beautiful face.
He himself had also become more stunning.
The space around the podium rippled like water, creating circles.
After that, a flawlessly smooth, white leg extended from the space as she proudly stood upright, making her entrance to everyone known.
Her blond hair was luscious and graceful. Her beautiful face and seductive figure made everyone's hearts flutter the moment they saw her.
Gan Yutong glanced around and her gaze finally stopped on Sullo for a moment.
When she heard that the teachers and students of the War Theological Seminary had encountered a Void Devourer during the trial mission, she still felt a lingering fear.
Fortunately, this student was blessed with great fortune and met a responsible leader who dared to sacrifice himself and successfully escaped from the mouth of the Void Devourer.
Otherwise, she would have suffered a great loss.
Gan Yutong let out a soft cough, then began her lecture.
"Fellow students, I will explain to you in this class how to advance both your god levels and where your future development should be heading. As everyone knows, at the demigod level, you only need to accumulate faith power to increase your power."
"In order to advance to the level of a proper god, you first need to reach the peak of a Three-Star Demigod and choose your domain of power. Only after choosing a divine position will you be able to convert your faith power into divine power, allowing you to break through the barriers of being a demigod and become a god."
"And in order for a god to become a High God, you will need to accumulate divine power. One hundred points of divine power will allow you to become a Five-Star God, five hundred points of divine power will allow you to become a Six-Star God, and one thousand points of divine power is the standard for becoming a Seven-Star High God."
"The requirements for becoming a High God are the same, but the amount of divine power required will increase exponentially. Five thousand points of divine power will allow you to become an Eight-Star High God, and thirty thousand points of divine power will allow you to become a Nine-Star High God."
"As for becoming a normal High God to a sovereign, you will need to completely fuse with your divine power and obtain one hundred thousand divine power points. Only then will you have a one percent chance of becoming a sovereign High God."
"If you fail, you will have to start all over again with all the steps that I just mentioned, choosing your domain of power, collecting the points, and climbing the ranks."
After hearing Gan Yutong's words, the gods couldn't help but go into an uproar. They all began to whisper to each other, feeling incredibly shocked.
1,000 faith points were enough to refine a single strand of faith energy.
But a single drop of divine power required a thousand strands of faith energy to be condensed.
It must be understood that every day, a regular god would only be able to refine around ten strands of faith energy.
However, just becoming a Four-Star God required a full 100 drops of divine power, which was equivalent to 100,000 strands of faith power.
This meant that they would need to go without food or drinks for several years before they would be able to gather enough capital to become a god.
Even for Sullo, he would need at least two days to condense a single drop of divine power if he was able to obtain 500 strands of faith power every day.
The most ridiculous part was that a High God had to become a sovereign High God because it was just a natural progression of life.
They also needed 100,000 strands of divine power to have a 1% chance of advancing.
If they failed, they would have to start all over again.
For a time, the new gods couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed and felt the urge to give up.
In any case, it felt like too much effort to obtain something that they might never even get in their infinite lifetimes.
After all, they were all gods. There were countless life planets and believers in the divine realm. They could support themselves, so they didn't have to worry about being poor.
Among the crowd, only Sullo lowered his head and didn't say anything. He seemed to be planning how long it would take for him to gather enough divine power to advance.
At this moment, a cold snort sounded. It was like a bell that pulled the gods out of their confusion.
"What, you can't endure just a little bit of difficulty? You're all gods with an eternal lifespan. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can all become sovereigns one day and even become just like the God King himself. For example, didn't I spend over a thousand years just to become a Nine-Star High God?"
Hearing Gan Yutong's words, the gods finally came to their senses. Their faces flushed red as they answered in embarrassment, "Thank you for your explanation, teacher. We will work hard."
Seeing this, Gan Yutong nodded in satisfaction.
She had intentionally provoked these divine students.
This was because the advancement of a deity truly did seem extremely difficult. Many people would find it difficult to breakthrough in their entire lives.
For example, back in the day, she was a genius who was the center of attention.
But after cultivating for a thousand years, she was still just a Nine-Star High God?
From this, it could be seen just how difficult it was to raise one's divine level.
This was why she had brought these difficulties up earlier, prompting despair within her students. However, she had used herself as a benchmark of encouragement.
This was also what her teacher had taught her back in the day.
But when Gan Yutong saw the expressionless Sullo, she couldn't help but praise him in her heart.
'Good heavens, this little monster is actually unmoved. I wonder what sort of trump cards he has to be so confident.'
After that, Gan Yutong began to explain in detail the secrets to becoming a god.
"You will need to choose your domain of power beforehand. Only then will you be able to condense the faith power into divine power.
"Your domain of power choice is important to your growth. For example, if you choose the Tempest Domain, the divine power that you condense will be the Tempest Divine Power. If you choose the Blazing Domain, the divine power that you condense will be the Blazing Divine Power.
"As long as your power reaches the level of a Three-Star Demigod, you will be able to apply for a divine position from the seminary, but it will only be an ordinary one.
"In these positions, the divine power one can condense is extremely powerful. It is far from being comparable in an ordinary divine position, but they are still extremely rare in number and value. They basically don't exist in the market.
"But recently, an opportunity to acquire a precious divine position has appeared. That is the divine position selection tournament. As long as you are able to raise your power to the level of a Three-Star Demigod before then, you will be able to participate.
"If you are able to obtain good results, you will have a chance to acquire a precious position..."
This lesson quickly came to an end.
This was because all the divine students were impatient to return to their dormitories to train.
The divine position selection tournament was only held once every ten years. If they missed this opportunity, who knew if they would get such an opportunity again in the future.
The requirement for participating in the tournament was that they had to reach the level of a Three-Star Demigod. This was something that many people could only dream of.
Sullo did the same. He rejected the faith power provided by his mentor and immediately returned to his dormitory to begin his training.
He sat upright on the bed, taking out strands of faith power that were emitting five-colored light.
After that, he began to burn it, accelerating the absorption of his faith power.
This method was extremely wasteful for his faith power.
But if he wanted to break through as quickly as possible, this was the best method.
As the faith power burned rapidly, the aura surrounding Sullo's body rose steadily.
The halo above his head flickered and undulated.
After an unknown amount of time, a light shout suddenly came from the room.
"Three-Star Demigod is a success!"
