83: : Flame Dragon Emperor

Many high-ranking individuals gathered, each with different appearances, but clearly all from the Galaxy Kingdom.

A common citizen participating in the competition.

This was an extremely rare occurrence in the Galaxy Kingdom under the rule of the current Galaxy King.

Although the Galaxy King did not limit the number of participants from any civilization, those sent were always the elite of the elite.

They would generally not send a commoner to participate.

Even if they were to send a commoner, they would usually bestow various titles upon them.

And those who signed up to participate would not dare to falsely claim titles.

This is why people like Lin Wu were a rare sight.

After all, everyone loves stories of commoners rising against the odds.

“This young man’s strength is not great, but he deserves my respect. His civilization probably used all its power to teleport him here. Although I am a prince of a country, I understand that his burden is heavier than mine!”

“I admire him.”

Lin Wu stood still, not speaking, his slightly youthful face showing no change.

This demeanor, instead, made everyone admire him even more.

In this vast Universe, everyone respects the strong.

And even more so, people with dignity.

Moreover, they were originally princes of a country, or high-ranking officials of the Imperial City, so their caliber was naturally among the best in the entire Galaxy.

Among these contestants, even the worst were descendants of prestigious families.

There were basically no “country bumpkins.”

The registration and photo-taking were quickly completed.

Lin Wu also received his identity card.

“The Galaxy Empire is truly rich and powerful; even the identity cards are Profound Rank treasures.”

Seeing such a large expense, even Lin Wu, a billionaire, couldn't help but sigh.

Wu Ling, however, was disdainful.

“The current Galaxy King is trash. When my Old Ancestor was here, they distributed Heaven Rank treasures. It has shrunk to this extent under him.”

Wu Ling was still as arrogant as ever.

Lin Wu just laughed it off.

“Everyone, you can complete your registration directly with your identity cards; they have the most advanced intelligent System.”

“Travel expenses have been distributed to your identity cards, along with various reimbursement fees, totaling one hundred million Star Coins.”

The red-skinned instructor gave many more instructions.

“You can travel back and forth between your civilization and the Galaxy Capital at any time using the spatial Transmigration device. You just need to arrive on time on the day of the competition.”

“I have finished speaking; the meeting is adjourned!”

The red-skinned instructor immediately vanished.

The people on the field instantly scattered like birds and beasts, leaving in groups.

Lin Wu was just about to explore the Galaxy Capital.

Then a few people approached him.

“Hello, Brother Lin Wu, I am Anaz, the prince of the Namia civilization.”

“I am…”

The people in front of Lin Wu immediately introduced themselves.

For such polite behavior, he naturally responded immediately.

A moment later.

Lin Wu understood their intentions; it was clear these people wanted to make connections.

“Brother Lin Wu is truly a heroic figure; we admire him greatly. I wonder if we could exchange contact information and create an Opportunity together.”

Lin Wu had no reason to refuse such friendly behavior.

There’s a saying: one doesn’t hit a smiling face.

“No problem.”

Then, with a touch of their identity cards, their contact information was exchanged.

These few people also cordially invited Lin Wu for a drink.

Lin Wu found an excuse to decline.

These few people also walked away with a slight disappointment.

Watching Lin Wu’s receding figure, Anaz also felt quite emotional.

“Usually, when those people encounter us princes, they are all respectful and flattering. But he can remain neither humble nor arrogant; he is truly a hero among heroes!”

“Don’t say that; perhaps we will have to look up to him in the future.”

“Hahaha, true, after all, he might have a powerful background and doesn’t care about our olive branch at all.”

“Who cares, let’s go drink!”

These few immediately boarded their flying vehicles and went to find the most luxurious tavern... Lin Wu walked on the street.

Continuously getting to know the Galaxy Capital.

Along the way, many people cast their gaze upon him.

After all, Lin Wu’s height was relatively short, and the people of the Galaxy Capital here were all built like Demon Mans.

However, there were also some smaller individuals.

Lin Wu kept looking at the merchant associations on the road, wondering if he could buy something.

But after a long time, he still didn’t know what to buy.

Lin Wu had no choice but to find a small tavern and sit down.

The waiters in this small tavern were all half-beasts, and most of the alcoholic beverages produced were strong spirits.

Many strangely shaped humans were drinking here, completely disoriented.

“Guest, what do you need?”

A half-lizardman walked over.

“One of your house specialties.”

The communication method on this planet relied on an instrument, communicating through telepathy.

No need to learn foreign languages, let alone translation.

Communication between two different civilizations was unimpeded.

“Alright, please wait a moment.”

Lin Wu took out his identity card and began to register.

Soon, various pieces of information popped up.

【Contestant Lin Wu, this Galaxy Pride Competition is divided into several large arenas. Each arena has a different Realm, and the recommended age for participants also varies. Please choose carefully, act within your capabilities, and do not rush to your demise.】

【Arenas are as follows:

Body Tempering Realm, True Qi Realm, Grandmaster Realm, Star Radiance Realm, Star Domain Realm.

Higher Realm arenas are not yet open, as they do not fall within the scope of a Prodigy. Please make your selection.】

【Your current Realm is True Qi Realm, and it is recommended to choose the True Qi Realm arena.】

Seeing these arenas, Lin Wu once again lamented his insignificance.

The Universe was truly too vast.

He didn’t know how many Realms there were above.

Even Realms that Blue Star had never touched.

Possibly Realms that Blue Star had never even heard of.

“The intensity of the arena directly determines the rewards. I must do my best to acquire more resources for myself. Since my strength can contend with the Grandmaster Realm, I will directly choose that arena.”

Lin Wu made up his mind.

After all, the True Qi Realm challenge was too small, and the material rewards were very few.

The rewards for the Grandmaster Realm were doubled.

As for the higher Realm arenas, that was not something a True Qi Realm cultivator could challenge.

If he forced his way in, he would probably be crushed into a meat patty by a single glance from someone else.

His full-powered punch might not even be comparable to another person’s breath.

Lin Wu immediately chose the Grandmaster Realm.

The artificial intelligence immediately tried to stop him, but Lin Wu immediately refused.

【Selection complete. Contestant Lin Wu, a citizen of the Flame Dragon Universe Empire—Galaxy Universe Kingdom—Settlement, has been entered into the System. The selection phase of the competition will be held seven days from now, at 8 AM Galaxy Kingdom time. Please arrive at the venue on time!】

“Flame Dragon Universe Empire, huh.”

“This is the first time I’ve heard that name.”

Lin Wu secretly noted it down in his heart.

“Young Lord, the Galaxy Kingdom belongs to the Flame Dragon Emperor, whose strength is very powerful.”

Lin Wu nodded.

At this moment, the strong liquor was brought over.

It was an unknown glowing liquid.

Lin Wu took a shallow sip, then stood up.

“Begin to Cultivate!”
