With recent training, Li Xing is getting more energetic! There's no other reason for that, other than the fact that he now has the confidence to train. In just three days, his Star account has accumulated over 20,000 Star Coins! That's like stealing money!
Although his price was set very low, the number of humans targeted by the Star Internet is simply too large. Among these people, even if just one out of 100,000 pays, it would be enough for Li Xing to earn. This trip is exciting because he is getting paid zero but receiving rewards beyond imagination!
During these three days, Li Xing has also advanced from the low-level Starlight to the intermediate level. The fact that he was able to upgrade so quickly was somewhat unexpected to Li Xing himself, but Inferno felt it was no big deal. Li Xing's age is not that young, and his physical fitness is much better than that of a child.
Additionally, because of Inferno's presence, Li Xing did not take even one wrong turn in his low-level training, and he achieved 120% of the training effect every time. Furthermore, the upgrade of low-level abilities is indeed not difficult, even if it were a child, it would not take too long...
After listening to Inferno's explanation, Li Xing realized that what had happened to him was actually quite normal, and his heart returned to its usual state. Soon, under the guidance of Yingjian, Li Xing purchased the first batch of equipment needed to prepare the potion, spending 15,000 Star Coins in one go... Such a large expense made Li Xing's heart ache...
This was just the equipment, he also had to purchase the materials needed to make the potion, which was another expense. The 20,000 Star Coins he had just earned had not even warmed up in his account, and it was gone in an instant...
"Come on, don't look like you've lost something important. As long as your ability level goes up, you don't have to worry about earning this kind of money again," Yingjian said, comforting Li Xing with a casual tone, despite the fact that he himself did not care much about money.
Li Xing didn't argue, but he was still a little reluctant. He had just gone from poverty to wealth, and his mindset was not yet fully adjusted. But he had spent it, and as long as it was worth it, that was fine.
As usual, he opened the website of the poetry enthusiasts, ready to find a few more poems to post today. After opening his own webpage, he noticed that he had received a lot of emails, the number of which was surprisingly over several thousand!
He casually opened a few of the emails to see the content, and found that most of them were feedback from readers about his poems. Many people praised the three poems he had uploaded, and some others gave some suggestions, which were reasonably ignored, after all, he was not a professional poet, and his goal was not to write poetry... After reading several emails, he found that the content was mostly the same, so he clicked on the "delete all" button. Thousands of emails disappeared instantly, but when Li Xing wanted to click the back button, he found that the screen displayed that there was still one email left there. Strange, he had just clicked on "delete all"...
Again clicking, after completing the operation, he found that it was still there... What's going on? Puzzled, Li Xing called out Ying Rong, who stared at the screen for a while and then pondered for a while before confirming, "It must be because of permissions."
"Permissions?" Such a high-sounding term made Li Xing unable to understand what it meant. "Yes, it must be like that. The person who sent this email has higher permissions on the interstellar internet, and someone with lower permissions like you doesn't have the ability to delete the email sent by that person."
So unfair? This made Li Xing a bit surprised, and the class division was too obvious, it was blatantly unfair!
"It's normal. More than half of the shares of interstellar internet companies are in private hands. Since it's in the hands of people, it's only natural to divide permissions for certain people. Deletion is impossible, you might as well click on it to see what it's about." "Okay." Nodding in agreement with the Shadow Blade, Li Xing reached out and clicked on the message.
The email read: I order you to write a poem about the starscape, like the three poems you sent earlier...
"Is this guy crazy?" Li Xing couldn't take it anymore and demanded a more polite approach. Asking someone to do something and using the word "order"? "It seems he's quite sick," the Shadow Blade responded, not holding back his surprise.
As a killer, he had a free-spirited mindset. Even when taking on jobs, it was a transaction-based approach where he would take the money and do the job. The word "order" didn't sit well with him.
"Swear back at him, whoever he is!" the Shadow Blade said without hesitation. "Don't get so worked up over something like this. It's not worth getting angry over," Li Xing said, trying to console the Shadow Blade. But his words weren't the only thing he was doing. He immediately composed a poem and sent it back... The content was as follows: Starry sky! You are so vast! Stars! You are so bright! ...
Feeling that he had sarcastically mocked the other person, Li Xing sent the few poems he had found and then immediately logged out of the website. Just as he was about to close his computer, the Shadow Blade suddenly spoke up from the sidelines: "Wait! Look at what that is!" Hearing his words, Li Xing stopped what he was doing and followed the direction of his finger. He noticed that there was a new message on the webpage. Upon clicking into it, there was a lot of nonsensical text, but in summary, it was saying that the Judicator's Guild was recruiting new members. All residents of the Enya star system were eligible to apply.
"What's the point of this?" Li Xing turned to look at Ying Rui, who seemed to be taking the announcement seriously. He curiously asked, "Is this going to be useful to you?"
"For you, it's a good opportunity," Ying Rui thought for a moment and then continued, "If you can join the Judicator's Guild, it should benefit you in your ability training."
"Is that so?" Li Xing had known from their days of being together that Ying Rui would not intentionally harm him. If he said it was good for him, it was most likely true. Using his hand, he continued to scroll down. At the bottom was the link to the registration form. Clicking on it, he filled out the form and registered.
"Since we're going to participate in the competition, it looks like our training needs to be intensified. The announcement says that the competition will start 80 days from now. You should at least reach the level of Starlight by then." Yingjian looked at him seriously and said, "With me here, you don't have to worry about speed. But you might have to suffer a bit more." "That's fine," said Li Xing, not taking it to heart.
"Then let's pack up now. According to what was said above, the competition venue is not on Earth. The Judges' Guild will send someone to pick up the participants at a designated place after the time arrives. Your city is not on the list, so we can't wait here." "But my delivery address is all here!" Li Xing felt a bit stuck. He couldn't leave here for at least a week, otherwise, the tens of thousands of star coins he had spent on the items would probably be refunded.
"Well... then let's wait for ten days. The time is still 80 days later, so we don't have to rush. Those equipment and materials are definitely going to be acquired." "Okay, that's settled. It's training time. What's the task for today?" "Yes, today we do need to continue to freeze the small tree. But today, your task is to freeze two of them..." Oh...
"Captain, all the blame is mine. Please punish me!" In front of the screen, Anlu bowed at a 90-degree angle to the CEO on the screen, expressing his apologies. Because of his mistake, the selection area for contestants had expanded from one planet to an entire star system!
It was even possible that it would bring serious harm to the target of their plan, the mutants on Earth...
"It's too late to say anything now. Since the message has been sent out, let's just go ahead and organize the competition." The CEO on the screen said with a hint of boredom. "Yes, CEO, we will definitely organize it properly!"
"Okay, that's it." said Tamir, the CEO, and closed the communication.
"Ah!" Anlu sat down on the chair beside him, looking dejected. A rare opportunity, but it was all ruined by his subordinates! He could imagine that he might have become a joke back at the headquarters, but since the matter had already begun and could no longer be undone, he could only grin and bear it, although the scale of the competition would probably have to be expanded several times.
He was sure that most of the mutants from the 21 planets would sign up, so the venue they had prepared earlier would no longer be able to accommodate them... "Check first. How many people have registered so far?" "Report Vice President, I have already checked. The message was sent out just three days ago, and the number of registrants has already exceeded 30,000..."
Oh my... Looking at the numbers on the report, he could feel his facial muscles twitching. The registration period was ten days, and yet here it was only three days and there were already so many people. He had no idea how many would come in ten days...
"This is a rare opportunity! An adolescent man in a battle uniform was speaking to another man who looked similar to him, but was younger. "The conditions for this recruitment are Time has come, the branch chief of Enya Constellation has urgently informed us, let us get to the designated location as soon as possible!" Someone shouted from dozens of meters away. "Okay, I know. I'm leaving now." Before leaving, he added: "Have you contacted the people I told you to?" "Yes, yes! Brother, you can rest assured, everything is under control on my end!" "Okay." The young man, along with two others, boarded a security vessel, and the black interstellar security vessel soon departed. On the vessel, which was entirely black, there were only two simple numbers...
