“There are three main paths for a cosmic civilization to be strong. First is technology, second is economics, and third is evolution,” Secretary General Angus stated.

“The development of technology is very slow,” Secretary General Angus said. “Moreover, it requires a large number of talents in tech, and it takes generations of work to produce a generational leap.”

“Economics—if the economy is strong enough, we can buy enough powerful weapons to protect us,” Secretary General Angus said. “Don’t be lulled into thinking that nobody dares to kill cosmic citizens because they are protected by the Cosmic Human Alliance’s laws.”

“The universe is vast. A civilization in a remote sector of the cosmos can be wiped out—as long as one doesn’t leave any evidence. The murderer will be nowhere to be found. Of course, it’s very difficult to wipe out a civilization without the Cosmic Human Alliance discovering the truth. Once it’s discovered,

the price is also very high. Therefore, the possibility of it happening is extremely low. However, it’s still very common for cosmic citizens as individuals to be killed.”

Secretary General Angus said, “Therefore, we need a strong economy to buy powerful weapons to protect Earthlings. However, the growth of a civilization’s economy also requires time; it can’t be rushed.”

Individual investments were tenable bets which could result in massive profits. However, the economy of a cosmic civilization was massive, and it involved all kinds of assets. Low volatility was an utmost priority, resulting in slow growth speed.

“The third path is evolution,” Secretary General Angus said. “This is the most common path for many weak civilizations in the universe to rise because this path is the most likely to produce miracles.”

“The evolution of an individual is the pursuit of countless human civilizations,” Secretary General Angus said. “As they evolve, the individual will become stronger, and their brains will become more developed. Their intelligence will increase, and their lifespans will increase. The more powerful lifeforms

will also have a higher status in the Cosmic Human Alliance.”

Director Zhou from China smiled and said, “I believe you can sense it now—the speed of mental processing is much faster than before you practiced the evolutionary method! As for you, you are still categorized as planetary lifeforms. If you become a cosmic lifeform, your brain will become more

developed, and your speed of learning will be faster! If you reach Lv. 9, you will exceed the category of a cosmic lifeform and become higher-level lifeforms! Your learning ability will be stronger, and your long lifespans allow the accumulation of boundless intelligence. Your strength can easily destroy

planets. Every one of you will be a treasure of the Cosmic Human Alliance.”

“Geniuses are also valued in the universe. What does it mean by talent? Strength and intelligence are all the criteria for selection,” the representative from the EU continued. “The rarer the talent is, the more importance that will be placed on them. You will naturally be able to help your homeworld’

civilization once you are placed in an important position.”

“The so-called ten evolutionary methods weren’t discovered on Mars but obtained after coming into contact with the Cosmic Human Alliance. These are the ten most basic evolutionary methods of the Cosmic Human Alliance,” Secretary General Angus said.

“After integrating into the Cosmic Human Alliance, all the countries of Earth’s civilization quickly united and started discussing countermeasures.” Secretary General Angus said, “The cultivation of the evolutionary method has to be done in concert with the virtual world; otherwise, the mortality rate will

be too high. As for the seven billion VR headsets and the virtual world mainframe that can host more than ten billion people, they are worth more than an inhabited planet!”

“Actually, many humans from basic civilizations in the universe…” The seated Tejano Xire suddenly said, “have never entered the virtual world.”

Huh? Xu Jingming and the others looked at Tejano Xire in surprise.

“Let me do the introductions. This is an ambassador from the Cosmic Human Alliance.” Secretary General Angus got up, and the other representatives from the five council countries got up.

An ambassador from the Cosmic Human Alliance? Xu Jingming was a little stunned, and so were Liu Hai and the others.

An alien was competing with them?

“Everyone.” Tejano got up and smiled. His skin color then began to change, turning gray, and his hair and eyebrows turned silver-gray. The color of his pupils changed, and his aura returned to the aura of a cosmic lifeform, making him much stronger.

“As there’s only one year left until the safety period expires, we have to encourage the entire human race to work harder in the future,” Secretary General Angus stated seriously. “To obtain a good life and a high status, they have to contribute to civilization.”

The other five representatives nodded in agreement.

“Okay.”

Tejano nodded. “You have to make the best use of your time. Once the protection period is over, powerful civilizations will definitely be out for blood! Without the protection of cosmic humans, just the basic rules will result in you suffering all kinds of losses in foreign trade. It’s even possible that the

civilization cannot be maintained whole. It’s also common to choose to join other civilizations.”

“The first year of the virtual world’s launch was about trial and error,” Secretary General Angus said. “We subsequently have to strengthen the idea of ‘social contribution.’ We humans have to work hard together as one in order for Earth’s civilization to better stand tall in the forest of the universe. As for

the nine of you, you are geniuses selected from billions of people. I also hope that you can contribute more to our homeworld’s civilization.”

“Okay.” Xu Jingming, Liu Hai, Tiger Fussen, Halu Singh, Tu Ling, Riven Gullit, Miyagawa Meishin, Akinov, Alan Emelianenko, and the others all felt the heavy pressure on them.

The nine of them… were the nine most talented people in the entire civilization! The tall were the ones to hold up the falling sky, and they were the tallest nine!

“The first step is to become cosmic lifeforms as soon as possible and become cosmic citizens,” Secretary General Angus said. “Only by becoming cosmic citizens can you receive the protection of the Cosmic Human Alliance’s laws and enter the virtual world with your identity.”

Xu Jingming and the others nodded.

“The prize money for this competition will also be distributed to every one of you,” Secretary General Angus said. “The prize money this time is cosmic currency. In the future, when you deal with other cosmic c

precious; it was saved up by Earth from selling minerals. You have to cherish them.”

zations, Earth dollars will be useless. It has to be cosmic currency! Cosmic currency is very

“Yes.” The nine of them felt the heavy burden on their shoulders.

“Work hard. It’s not just you; many people around the world are also working hard for our homeworld,” Secretary General Angus said. “Everyone is fighting side by side.”

The meeting quickly ended, and the prize money for the competition was distributed to everyone.

“Your Excellency, please wait.” After the others left, Secretary General Angus stopped Tejano.

“Oh?” Tejano looked at him.

“Your Excellency, as you know, us on Earth are limited in our knowledge,” Secretary General Angus said. “It’s very rare now that a Transcendent genius—Xu Jingming—has appeared. We’re also discussing internally how to groom him, but we’re worried that our lacking knowledge will end up harming him.

Therefore, we hope you can give us some pointers.”

“Give pointers? Me?” Tejano pricked up his brows and began thinking out of goodwill. “Let me come up with something. I’ve interacted with too few Transcendent geniuses; I mostly interacted with Lv. 9s..”
