Changing Life And Career? I Planted The World Tree At The Beginning

Chapter 137: Picking Up The Water Of Life, The Empire’S Genius Protection System!

Chen Yu guessed correctly.

Ling Xiuhe's purpose in coming to River Sun City was indeed to protect him.

Furthermore, Ling Xiuhe's actions were not purely personal, but rather a top-secret mission issued by the central hub of the empire at the SSS level.

In fact, Ling Xiuhe was not the only one who accepted the mission.

After Chen Yu and Ling Xiuhe left.

Five forbidden powerhouses emerged from the teleportation array in River Sun City.

As soon as these forbidden powerhouses appeared, they quickly dispersed and surrounded the entire River Sun City like an iron barrel.

Some may think this is an overreaction.

Is it worth it for a mere top scorer in the college entrance examination to be protected by these forbidden powerhouses?

Isn't it a waste of the empire's powerful resources?

The central hub of the Soaring Dragon Empire does not think so.

The current Great Emperor at the pinnacle of the pyramid and the twelve elders of the Elder Council even feel that this level of protection is somewhat insufficient.

Chen Yu's performance in the college entrance examination ranking competition is far more than just saving the dignity of the Soaring Dragon Empire and hundreds of powerhouses.

In the eyes of ordinary people, 5 million ranking competition points may just be a number, representing Chen Yu's promising future.

But in the eyes of the top-level of the empire who have more information, this point value represents an existence that will undoubtedly be infinitely great in the future, rising like the morning sun.

Indeed, in the college entrance examination ranking competition, the final points of a candidate are full of randomness.

The candidate's state, the type of instance, and even the luck within the instance will all affect the final score.

However, when a random event has a sufficient number of samples, observers can calculate the probability of this random event.

When the probability is 100%, it can be determined as an inevitable occurrence.

This law applies to the connection between a candidate's college entrance examination ranking competition points and their future achievements.

By integrating the data of previous college entrance examination ranking competitions and comparing them with the corresponding achievements of the candidates.

It will be discovered that when the points reach a certain threshold, all candidates with points higher than this threshold have achieved certain accomplishments without exception.

This threshold ranges from forbidden powerhouses to demigods.

Since the Soaring Dragon Empire's judgment of a candidate's future can only reach the demigod level, is it worth it for so many current forbidden powerhouses to protect a future demigod?

The answer is yes.

And very much so.

Even if it means sacrificing a hundred or even several hundred Rank Eight forbidden powerhouses.

If it can ensure the birth of a Rank Ten powerhouse, it is absolutely worth it.

Moreover, what Chen Yu has shown at this stage has almost confirmed that the demigod is not the end!

In this way, a new question arises.

Since the points already represent future achievements, does it also mean that this person will not fall before achieving these accomplishments?

Since it is certain that they will not fall, why go to such lengths to protect them?

The answer is that the future is still full of uncertainty before it becomes a reality.

As the strongest force in the Blue Star World, the Tengkong Empire cannot gamble on the absolute truth of big data.

Just like a lottery winner who wins five million.

Until the funds are deposited into their account, they do not believe that they have definitely won the five million.

They will be anxious and calculate the various possibilities of losing the opportunity to claim the prize.

Only when the prize money is in hand will they truly feel at ease.

The attitude of the empire's high-level towards geniuses is the same.

And who can say for sure whether the protection from the empire is one of the necessary conditions for these geniuses to grow up?

After all, the college entrance examination system is deeply rooted, and the empire's protection system for geniuses has been in place for many years.

Of course, there are also those who clamor for "geniuses should experience hardships, and those who die are not geniuses" and so on.

But these people only have the qualification to clamor, and they never have the power to establish rules.

The high-level of the empire never pays attention to these clamoring individuals.

To carefully cultivate 100 geniuses and obtain 99 powerhouses, or to let loose or even raise 100 geniuses and obtain 1 powerhouse, even a fool knows how to choose.

The latter also applies to cultivating geniuses, but that is a last resort when resources are scarce.

Moreover, geniuses are emotional people.

A strong person has a sense of belonging to the power that nurtures them, whether it is the power that nurtured them when they were weak or the power that took care of them when they were weak. This goes without saying.

As for why this group of forbidden strong individuals does not provide personal protection for Chen Yu.

This is another painstaking effort.

Or... it could be called a system.

It is well known that ordinary people do not like their privacy to be completely exposed, let alone geniuses?

Being followed by a group of unfamiliar strong individuals all the time would make people very uncomfortable.

So, the group of forbidden strong individuals is not targeting Chen Yu.

Instead...

Within the vicinity of Chen Yu, anyone who may pose a threat to Chen Yu is targeted!

Chen Yu naturally knows nothing about all of this.

He believes that Ling Xiuhe's arrival to protect him is already an extraordinary phenomenon.

As for more forbidden strong individuals specifically guarding him?

He never even thought about it!

At this moment, he had just finished molding a disguise mask and leisurely walked into the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

"Dong dong dong—"

Chen Yu knocked on the counter.

The round-faced girl followed the little loli and left, and the one taking over was a stunning beauty with a mountain-like figure, emitting a strong and refreshing fragrance.

"Esteemed guest, may I ask if you have any needs?"

The stunning beauty smiled, the corners of her eyes slightly lifted, her eyes becoming narrow, exuding a hint of foxy charm.

"Help me contact your general manager, I want to pick up my order."

Chen Yu placed a black card with a gold border in front of the stunning beauty.

This was the Treasure Gathering Pavilion Transcendent Level VIP card given to him by the little loli before she left. It served as proof for picking up the Life Water and paying the final installment.

It was said to be an internal special supply, with an 80% discount for purchases and a 10% higher selling price.

After the little loli left, this was Chen Yu's first time coming to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

The stunning beauty picked up the VIP card, her expression briefly showing surprise, then immediately returned to her smile and said to Chen Yu, "Alright, esteemed guest, please wait a moment."

After a while, the stunning beauty led a young man with gold-rimmed glasses out.

"Esteemed guest, please follow me." The young man spoke politely, "The transaction amount is too large, and the hall is crowded, which may not be ideal."

Chen Yu glanced around and noticed that there weren't many people.

Even if there were people, they were quickly led by the salesgirls to the upstairs sales floor for related products.

However, there was no need to argue at this time.

Chen Yu followed the young man, walking through the familiar backstage passage and entering the study.

This used to be the little loli's hideout, holding many beautiful memories of Chen Yu and the little loli.

For example, feeding the little loli lollipops, treating her to hot dogs, taking her to see goldfish, and so on.

"Esteemed guest, ten units of Life Water, is that what you ordered?"

After Chen Yu sat down, the young man sat opposite him, pushed his glasses, and asked with a smile.

"That's right." Chen Yu nodded.

"This batch of goods was taken out in the name of Yun Biyue." The young man said,

"May I ask, what is the relationship between you, esteemed guest, and Yun Biyue?"

"Also, what is the purpose of your purchase of Life Water?"

The young man's voice was calm, seemingly just casually asking.

But beneath the lenses, his eyes occasionally flashed with a sharp gaze, as if trying to pierce through Chen Yu.

"I seem to have no obligation to answer such questions from you, right?" Chen Yu frowned.

"Do you, at Treasure Gathering Pavilion, also require customers to explain in detail how they will use the goods?"
