Nuoding Academy.
After watching the spectacle, Lin Chen pulled out his black diary, intending to finish today's entry.
Just as he was about to write about some daily rewards he had obtained...
Blood-red characters appeared one after another on his black diary, drawing all of Lin Chen's attention.
[Host, please complete today's diary entry. Theme: The Future of Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts.]
Looking at the blood-red text on the black diary, Lin Chen pondered for a moment, wondering what kind of trick the diary system was playing.
But since the theme had already been set for today, Lin Chen had no choice but to start from there.
With a thought from Lin Chen, blood-red characters began to appear on the black diary one by one.
At the same time.
Blood-red characters also began to appear on the exclusive diary instances held by owners around the world.
This movement caused the women in the Chat Group, who were still discussing how to torment Xiao Gang, to stop and focus their attention on Lin Chen's updated diary entry.
Especially Xiao Wu, Ah Yin, and Gu Yuena.
The three of them were Spirit Beasts and belonged to the Spirit Beast faction within the Chat Group. Therefore, they were desperate to know if there was any possibility of peaceful coexistence between Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts.
[It was so satisfying to see the news of Yu Xiaogang becoming a eunuch exposed today. A fame-seeking scumbag like Yu Xiaogang should have had this kind of retribution long ago.]
[However, to my surprise, this diary instance actually set a theme, asking me to write about the future of Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts.]
[I originally wanted to record some daily life today, but it seems I can't; I must write about this theme.]
[The future of Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts... how should I put it? In the original trajectory, the future for Spirit Masters is bright, but as for the Spirit Beasts, it is extremely cruel.]
[In this era, Spirit Beasts are still numerous and hold the dominant position, while humans are in the weaker position.]
[But as time progresses, ten thousand years later, humans gradually catch up to the Spirit Beasts. Twenty thousand years later, humans completely surpass them.]
[Furthermore, as time goes on, the number of Spirit Beasts will only decrease. By twenty thousand years later, only the Spirit Beasts in the core of the Star Dou Great Forest and some Sea Spirit Beasts will survive. In that era, Spirit Beasts will be nearly extinct.]
Lake of Life.
When Gu Yuena saw the contents of Lin Chen's diary, a surge of endless rage instantly rose within her.
The extinction of Spirit Beasts was something she could not tolerate.
In her heart, no matter how bad the Spirit Beasts' situation was, they should still have a place. But why, twenty thousand years later, would only the Spirit Beasts in the core of the Star Dou Great Forest survive?
Why on earth was this?
Was human talent truly so powerful that in twenty thousand years, there would be countless top-tier experts?
Gu Yuena was deeply confused. How could she, as the Co-Lord of Soul Beasts, accept that Spirit Beasts would be near extinction in just twenty thousand years?
But she didn't dare to reveal herself now. The Divine Realm was above, and there were still inheritance grounds for deities left on the Douluo Continent.
If she dared to take action against humans, she would likely have to face the five Great God Kings of the Divine Realm immediately.
Moreover, her injuries had not yet recovered. Forget a God King, even dealing with a First-Class God would be difficult.
[In my opinion, there are three ways to solve the Spirit Beasts' predicament, but all are fraught with difficulties.]
[The first is to completely change the Spirit Master cultivation system, so that advancing in strength no longer requires spirit rings, allowing them to cultivate and grow stronger on their own.]
[In this current system, if a Spirit Master wants to become stronger, they must obtain spirit rings. This inevitably leads to a decrease in the number of Spirit Beasts.]
[Ten thousand years later, the Spirit Beast system is abolished and replaced by the soul spirit system. But in essence, it still belongs to the original Spirit Master cultivation system. soul spirits grant spirit rings to Spirit Masters. Under these circumstances, Spirit Beasts perish even faster.]
[Because humans have found soul spirits as a substitute for Spirit Beasts, they will frantically hunt Spirit Beasts to mature soul spirit technology in order to research its mysteries.]
[Above, the Divine Realm hangs in the sky; if Spirit Beasts want to wipe out humanity, they would completely cross the line of the deities. Below, there is human wisdom; if Spirit Beasts want to maintain a balance with humans and sustain this delicate relationship to continue their race's reproduction, they cannot do that either.]
[Only Spirit Beasts older than a hundred thousand years possess wisdom comparable to normal humans. How difficult it is to keep up with the pace of human development.]
[In the Spirit Master world, ten thousand years later is the era of spirit tools; twenty thousand years later is the era of Battle Armor; thirty thousand years later is the era of Space Warships.]
[Meanwhile, Spirit Beasts still rely on the primitive survival of the fittest. Among the creations of human wisdom, Battle Armor alone is enough to give Spirit Beasts a hard time. Battle Armor can significantly enhance a Spirit Master's strength, allowing human power to completely overtake Spirit Beasts.]
[I don't know which 'genius' came up with this Douluo Continent Spirit Master cultivation system, but it's incredibly toxic, completely cutting off any way for Spirit Beasts to survive.]
[Take the neighboring Shen Yin World, for example. The cultivation system there is quite good. Cultivators grow stronger by cultivating Spiritual Power, and the magical beasts there don't face the crisis of extinction because they are more like the cultivators' contract partners in a symbiotic relationship.]
Writing to this point, Lin Chen couldn't help but feel pity for the Spirit Beasts. The situation on the Douluo Continent was truly too difficult for them.
The emergence of this Spirit Master cultivation system was not only a great cancer for the Spirit Masters themselves but also a catastrophe for the Spirit Beasts.
The current situation for Spirit Beasts was extremely awkward. Even though the Douluo Continent had a divine beast like the Silver Dragon King and the Spirit Beast faction's strength was still at its peak, it was to no avail.
First, Spirit Beasts cannot exterminate humans; most of the deities in the Divine Realm are human, and they would not allow such a thing to happen.
Second, it is impossible for Spirit Beasts to always stay ahead of Spirit Masters and maintain their status in the future. Human wisdom far surpasses that of Spirit Beasts, and they are much stronger in terms of developing technology.
Nuoding Academy.
A few hundred meters away from Lin Chen, a sigh rang out.
"Sigh, is the situation for us Spirit Beasts really this difficult?"
After reading the contents of Lin Chen's diary, Xiao Wu felt a sense of despair, her tone filled with helplessness.
Their Soul Beast Clan was simply having it too hard, too miserably. Not only were they hunted for spirit rings, but even their entire race would be nearly extinct in a few tens of thousands of years.
If told this now, Xiao Wu would absolutely not believe it.
"But is it really possible to change the Spirit Master cultivation system?"
The first method Lin Chen described to solve the Spirit Beasts' predicament—completely changing the Spirit Master system—was simply too difficult.
She was just an ordinary hundred-thousand-year Soft Bones Demon Rabbit. Forget changing the cultivation system, even learning theoretical knowledge was almost too much for her.
"In my next life, I won't be a bunny anymore."
As a Spirit Beast, she felt immense pressure. Not only did she face threats to her own safety, but she also faced the future crisis of her race's extinction.
