Chapter 7 Missed the Battle of Geniuses
Registration is very simple.
Since he had not registered his citizenship, he only needed to pay the processing fee to complete the process.
After that, he opened an account at the Cosmic Galaxy Bank.
The opening threshold for the Cosmic Galaxy Bank is very high, requiring 1 million Black Dragon Coins.
Fortunately, Qi Yuan made another fortune from the space pirates, which just met the threshold for opening an account.
Then I registered for Virtual Universe.
"Wow, finally we can connect to the virtual universe!"
Xiao Jiu cheered and began to eagerly record all the information she could find.
Massive information processing is one of the main ways in which advanced artificial intelligence evolves into intelligent life.
Qi Yuan then had Xiao Jiu select a property with a suitable price, which meant they could settle down on Biyan Star.
After purchasing the property, Qi Yuan went to the slave market.
Looking at the slaves being sold like commodities, Qi Yuan felt very depressed.
If it weren't for good luck, I might have been one of them.
Although they abhorred the slave trade, they were powerless to do anything about it due to their low social status.
Upon Qi Yuan's arrival, the slave traders did not look down on him because of his low strength; on the contrary, they approached him with great enthusiasm.
The price difference between each level of the star-level slave is enormous.
The cheapest first-tier Hengxing martial artist costs 100 million Black Dragon Coins.
The most expensive level-nine spiritual master of the Eternal Star level is worth 50 billion Black Dragon Coins.
Qi Yuan selected a male slave with a relatively normal appearance, a fourth-level Star Spirit Master.
With the addition of previous registration fees and the cost of buying a house, he had almost run out of money.
He also arranged for slave traders to provide ten planetary-level slaves, as well as a large number of apprentice-level female slaves.
"As long as you serve me diligently, I will set you free in a hundred years!"
After settling them in at home, Qi Yuan made them a promise.
The slaves' eyes lit up with excitement.
Freedom is nothing to ordinary people.
Yet it was what the slaves longed for and desired most.
……
Qi Yuan, along with Tie He, a fourth-tier slave of the Hengxing realm, set off once again.
This time, we're returning to Holy Light Star.
In just over ten days, as if in a dream, his identity and strength underwent earth-shattering changes.
The surveillance system on Holy Light Star is relatively basic, and Xiao Jiu easily hacked into it.
The spaceship activated its stealth mode and landed silently.
Qi Yuan arrived at the old clan chief's house and gently knocked on the door.
"Qi Yuan?! You...you're back?"
The old clan chief gaped in astonishment.
Then she glanced around furtively and quickly pulled him inside.
"Teacher, I've come to take you and Xiaohui away."
Qi Yuan gave a brief explanation.
He said that the people of the Yachina organization fought a war with space pirates, and he escaped in the chaos.
Then, by sheer luck, he found a spatial ring and obtained a spaceship and a sum of money.
"I have now settled on a very prosperous planet."
Qi Yuan said, "Teacher, come with me."
"Then we'll be free. You won't need to suppress your cultivation level anymore; you can break through to the planetary level."
"Good, good. With your talent, you're sure to become a great person."
The old clan chief smiled with satisfaction.
"You take Xiaohui with you, I'm not leaving."
He waved his hand, stopping Qi Yuan from trying to persuade him.
"Xiao Hui is just a child, no one will care."
Even if I'm asked, I can easily make up an excuse to get away with it.
But I can't.
I am the patriarch of the Holy Light Star People; I am too conspicuous a target.
If I go missing, it might implicate you.
You are the hope of the community; not even the slightest potential danger can be left unaddressed.
"And if I escape, those demons will surely punish the remaining members of my people severely!"
Seeing the old clan chief's resolute expression, Qi Yuan knew he couldn't persuade him.
He nodded solemnly and vowed, "Teacher, please take good care of yourself. I will definitely rescue the Holy Light Star people, very soon!"
The old clan chief led him to Xiao Hui's room.
She was fast asleep at the time.
Qi Yuan gently picked her up and bid a reluctant farewell to the old clan chief.
The spaceship started up, and Qi Yuan came and went silently.
No one else was alerted.
"Brother, you're back! Am I dreaming?"
When Qi Hui woke up, she saw Qi Yuan at a glance, rubbed her eyes, and excitedly rushed into his arms.
"They said you were taken away by the Demon God, and Xiao Hui will never see her brother again. Waaah... Brother, please don't leave Xiao Hui, okay?"
Tears streamed down Xiao Hui's big eyes.
"Okay, okay, from now on we siblings will never be separated again."
Qi Yuan held her small body and patted her gently.
Back on Biyan Star, Qi Yuan went to the Treasure Shop and sold all the fifth-tier weapon fragments and other odds and ends he had stolen from the space pirates.
The power behind this treasure shop is not simple; it has branches on almost every important planet.
The variety of items is very rich.
Qi Yuan discovered several materials needed for the evolution of Tu Yu's clones.
Unfortunately, he couldn't afford it.
He bought a set of Spirit Fruits.
It's enough for his human clones to cultivate to the Hengxing level.
In addition, he also purchased the treasures needed for the Tai Sui Spirit Tree.
After all those little things, the money was gone again.
"Sigh, why can't I save any money?"
After leaving the Qibao store, Qi Yuan headed towards the Qianwu Taoist Temple.
The Qianwu Dojo has cosmic-level teachers providing instruction.
Most importantly, this is a way to join the Qianwu Secret Realm.
After entering and paying the registration fee, I saw countless people cheering and shouting in the huge square.
Even the "Dry Shaman" whose clothes were embroidered with a gold leaf was no exception.
It should be noted that "Qian Wu Zhe" are the true elites of the Qian Wu dojo.
One Leaf Dry Witch is a cosmic-level genius;
The Two-Leaf Dry Witch is a Domain Lord level;
The Three-Leaf Indestructible Witch is a Realm Lord level being.
Qi Yuan inquired with a planetary-level teenager.
The boy excitedly grabbed Qi Yuan and began to talk loudly and incessantly.
"Wan Teis Izeger Saint Luo, the genius of our Black Dragon Mountain Empire—Wan Luo!"
She qualified for the finals of the Cosmic Genius Battle!
Her strength is far ahead of the rest of the entire Qianwu Universe Kingdom.
My teacher was certain that Wanluo would win first place in the finals.
"The champion of the Cosmic Genius Battle finals belongs to our Black Dragon Mountain Empire!"
Judging from the excited and frenzied expressions of these people, it is clear that the citizens of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire have a strong sense of collective honor.
"A battle of cosmic geniuses?"
Qi Yuan sighed inwardly, lamenting that he was born at the wrong time.
If it had been a few years or decades later, I would have been able to participate myself.
The competition in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom has now concluded, and all that remains is the finals a year from now.
I completely missed out.
The giant screen began playing advertisements for a group of geniuses.
The most numerous among them was Wanluo, the genius of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
The girl had black hair and black eyes, and her racial features were very similar to Qi Yuan's.
However, she had a pair of pointed ears and skin as white as jade, radiating a luminous glow.
It looks like an elf from a game or anime from my past life.
The girl was very strong; wherever she went, enemies fled in all directions, and no one could withstand a single blow from her.
Even when surrounded by numerous experts, she easily turned the tables and killed them all.
Even her opponents in the arena couldn't withstand a single sword strike from her.
