Chapter 204: Holy Son Trial Originally, Chu Yi was looking forward to the Infinite Empire, because according to Romero, the empire is one of the five overlords of the so-called five overlords are the five most powerful forces in the entire universe, even if those forces entrenched in various subspaces are included. With such a powerful empire and such advanced technology, the various buildings and machines must be very sci-fi and dazzling. But after arriving, Chu Yi discovered that the environment of the imperial capital was much more simple than he had imagined. I don’t know if it’s because the original environment is maintained here, so no particularly advanced technology is used for renovation. The street lights, cobblestone streets, wooden storefronts, and the various electronic devices inside give people a rather chaotic feeling. The only thing that made Chu Yi feel satisfied was the means of transportation here. All vehicles look like sports cars on Earth, and they are all flying in the sky. There are only pedestrians and mechas on the ground. Those flying sports cars look so cool, they look like cars that only superheroes can own. Chu Yi looked at the sky with a smile, his eyes full of curiosity and yearning. It would be very cool to transform into a dragon and fly on Earth. But at the same time, owning a super sports car will still satisfy one's vanity.
What he wants now is a sports car that looks like a dragon. When I have enough money in the future, I will ask the craftsmen in the imperial capital to make one. I don’t know if they can make it. Little did they know that Chu Yi's appearance as Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden attracted the attention of many passers-by. They were dressed luxuriously, the men were heroic, and the women were beautiful. After seeing Chu Yi, they all covered their mouths and laughed, and gave him some pointers from time to time. "Don't act like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. Can you be more reserved?" Romero felt a little embarrassed by the instructions and immediately pulled Chu Yi's arm. Chu Yi spread his hands and said with a smile: "But I really haven't seen the world, and you also said before that according to the location of the earth, it is a remote and poor place." Romero's eyes lit up. "Interesting. I thought you would fly into a rage and argue with those locals in the capital, but I didn't expect you to be so calm." Chu Yi smiled and replied: "As a hero who has saved the world, maybe my world doesn't mean much to the people of the imperial capital, but for me personally, it can indeed bring a lot of growth. Normally I wouldn’t argue with people over such a small matter because I have a more important mission.” "Very good, keep this mentality, you will definitely achieve great things!" Romero gave Chu Yi a thumbs up. But Chu Yi knew in his heart that he was just a little socially anxious. If those friends who he is very familiar with dared to do this to him, he would kick them and curse at them while kicking. Is it okay to do this to these passers-by? If you do this, you may be sued. Besides, if others have no manners, do you have no manners too? Why bother yourself with trouble? Sooner or later you will become an ant under your own feet anyway. If Romero knew Chu Yi's mentality, he would probably be shocked instead of thinking. After shopping for half an hour, Romero finally visited all the shops he was familiar with. If I have old acquaintances, I will take the initiative to approach them and say hello.
Chu Yi stood behind and took in the customs and practices of the imperial capital. Although he didn't know what the masters here looked like, he found that the strength of the civilians here was quite outrageous. In other words, basically everyone has the strength of an overlord. This is just the feeling under normal circumstances. Who knows if there will be a sudden surge after entering the battle. Let’s start with those armors that look very powerful at first glance. Wouldn’t their strength increase dramatically after they are put together? These are just civilians. It is hard to imagine the level of the elite troops in charge of the combat. "Ah, even though thousands of years have passed, the imperial capital hasn't changed much." After greeting old acquaintances, Romero walked out onto the street and began to sigh. Chu Yi said in a deep voice: "According to what you said, the empire has been established for more than four million years. Compared with that, the thousands of years you were away are indeed not worth mentioning. For such a powerful empire, technology must have developed to its limit and cannot undergo a technological revolution. The environment here will probably remain the same for a long time unless there is a change of dynasty." "Part of what you said makes sense." Romero nodded gently. "But try not to say anything like changing the dynasty in the future, because that is disloyal to the Emperor. If those rigid and extreme Emperor's guards hear it, I may not be able to save you!" This is why Chu Yi hates feudalism. Sometimes, one’s entire clan might be killed just for saying the wrong thing. Now it seems that his so-called status as heir does not allow him to gain too much freedom, and as long as it involves the ruling class of the empire, there will probably be many restrictions. "I'll remember that. I'll try to talk less in the future." Chu Yi said in a calm voice. He knows he is a big mouth and likes to say some witty words from time to time. In the relaxed environment on Earth, if he makes some outrageous remarks, he will just be scolded online. But here, saying a word can get you into big trouble. It seems that I can no longer joke with others so recklessly in the future. Chu Yi sighed helplessly and asked curiously, "By the way, are the fighting power of the civilians in the imperial capital so strong? Under normal circumstances, they can already compete with the top masters on Earth." Romero smiled proudly when he heard this: "In the imperial capital, the combat effectiveness of civilians is the floor here. Although their strength is quite good, if even they step onto the battlefield, it is estimated that the empire will be destroyed soon. Besides, what you sensed is only their apparent strength. In reality, they can become even stronger when they really fight, at least reaching the third level!" "Level three...then what level am I at now?" Chu Yi asked hurriedly. Romero glanced at Chu Yi, and after a while he said, “The level of the middle stage of the third order, the limit of mortals is the peak of the ninth order, and above that is the realm of God. As a descendant chosen by the four gods, you have potential far exceeding that of the average local inhabitants of the imperial capital. Don't look down on them. Every person in the Imperial Capital is the product of generations of genetic evolution. Their natural strength far exceeds that of most humans in the universe. After wearing special Emperor Mechas or undergoing special warrior training, their strength can be skyrocketed. Probably, it won’t be a problem to break through to level six or seven.” "Level 6 or 7?!" Chu Yi was shocked. "This gap is too big!" Romero laughed. "This is the case of overdrawing potential, but every person who surpasses others is a flower with unlimited potential. If you don't undergo surgery and practice seriously, you may be able to gain strength beyond the 6 or 7 level. So whether you rush for success or take it slow and steady is up to you.” "I am now in the middle stage of the third level..." Chu Yi pondered. The Overlord is the pinnacle of the second level. His current standing panel is first-class among the emperors, but it can only be regarded as the middle stage of the third level.
Then it probably has to be promoted to the level of a divine pet to be considered the fourth level. Of course, if the Eight Gates and Super Saiyan were activated, his combat power would probably reach the peak of the fourth level. However, Romero said that the limit of mortals is level nine, and above level nine there is the realm of gods, which made Chu Yi extremely excited. The road is long and far away, and I will search for it! Originally, he just wanted to live an ordinary life with his family and friends. But fate forced him to become a savior step by step, and then forced himself to do so. Now it is unknown whether the earth is safe or still under threat. All he has to do is to improve his strength as quickly as possible and then go home. In addition, the idea of being a salted fish may never be realized in this lifetime. So he simply changed his thinking and saw how far he could go on the path of fighting. If one day I can really reach the end, it means I will be invincible in the world. At that time, I can do whatever I want, right? Chu Yi knew that his desire to become stronger was not pure, but it was definitely strong enough. And that's enough. "Can you tell me about the Emperor's Trial? I can't wait to participate." Chu Yi raised his head and asked, his eyes full of passion. "This is the first time you've mentioned the Emperor's Trial in such a long time." Romero smiled and said, “The Emperor’s Trial is also called the Son’s Training. Every 130,000 years, the empire would hold a grand trial to select the 26 Holy Sons. The emperor usually spends most of his time practicing in the palace and has no time to take care of the imperial affairs, so he needs the Son of God to take charge of state affairs on his behalf. However, the level of the Son of God in handling government affairs is secondary, because it can be improved through learning, so first of all, one must have sufficient strength and talent to obtain the position of the Son of God. The twenty-six previous sons of God have completed their missions. Some of them lie in golden coffins and begin to enjoy eternal dreams until they are willing to wake up. Some left the empire to travel the starry sea. In short, they could do whatever they wanted. Now the Empire is in urgent need of a new Holy Son to take charge of the situation, and the process of selecting the Holy Son is the Emperor's Trial!" Romero patted Chu Yi on the shoulder and said, "Boy, you are lucky. Under normal circumstances, even if you have the Holy Seal, you can only become an officer of the Holy Son Regiment at best, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to move up a level. But now the Emperor Trial has begun, and you are under 30 years old, which meets the requirements for participating. In addition, you have the Miracle Seal, so you will definitely become the favorite to be promoted to the final Holy Son, right? ! " Romero's words made Chu Yi's blood boil. At the same time, he asked curiously, "The final Son? Does that mean there are also early, middle and late stages of the Son?" "That's not the case." Romero shook his head. "Every time the Emperor conducts a trial, there are hundreds of millions of young people participating. They are all talents of the Empire. It would be a shame if they lose the qualification to serve the country just because they cannot beat the best 26 people. Therefore, as long as they advance to a certain stage of the trial, they will also be called Holy Sons, and the Emperor's beloved offspring, but they cannot accept the Holy Blood and obtain the Emperor's true bloodline. But they will undoubtedly still be respected and loved by the Emperor's people!" At this point, Romero couldn't help but straighten his chest, his expression extremely proud.
Chu Yi always felt that this was brainwashing and squeezing the surplus value of these ambitious men. But Romero had just reminded himself that there are some things that must not be said casually, even if they are true. Moreover, given Romero's fanaticism, if I really spoke out what I was thinking, I would probably be torn to pieces by him. Forget it, just do what you love. Now she is a citizen of the Infinite Empire. Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity. Just do the same as Romero, offer your loyalty and sing praises. There is no harm anyway. "I want to take part in the Emperor's Trial. I want to serve the Empire!" Chu Yi also imitated Romero and stretched out his pectoral muscles high. Romero looked at Chu Yi with a teachable look in his eyes: "Good boy, this is what a real man should do, you are very loyal! However, it is too early for you to directly participate in the Emperor's Trial with your current strength. You can first participate in the Loyalty Test, which is equivalent to the selection competition for the Emperor's Trial. It can allow you to quickly improve your strength, gradually adapt to high-intensity battles, and then accumulate a lot of popularity. " "Battles and such are minor issues... Wait a minute! You just said... popularity, what is that?" Chu Yi looked as if he had seen a ghost. How could the invincible overlord of the universe still consider popularity when selecting national leaders? Wouldn't that be like a talent show for online idols? ! "This is the advanced system of the Empire - people-oriented." Romero maintained a proud expression. "The Sons of God not only serve the Emperor, but also need to be responsible for the people. Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power tends to corrupt absolutely. The empire ruled by the Sons of God is too huge even if it is divided into twenty-six parts. It is too easy for the Sons of God to engage in corruption and abuse their power for personal gain. Therefore, the Sons of God need supervision, and in addition to officials specifically responsible for supervision, the people also have to fulfill this responsibility. Therefore, the opinions of the people will play a very important role from the initial selection of the Son of God. If you are very bad at showing moral character or personal charm, even if you are invincible in all the trials, it will be difficult for you to become the final Son of God. So no matter what you were like before, at least you have to behave like a saint during the trial, even if you have to act like a saint. As for becoming the Son of God, even if you want to be corrupt, you don’t have the courage to do so, because not only the people are watching you, but the emperor will also be watching you. Anyone who dares to betray the Empire will always end up dead without a burial place. At least there has been no exception so far." After listening to Romero's words, Chu Yi fell into silence. If that's the case, then won't he have any chance to do anything wrong in the future? Then what's the point of being the crown prince? (End of this chapter)
