Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Chapter 752 - Gamble of Will

Chapter 752: Gamble of Will

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Actually, the cause of this matter wasn’t very complicated.

It was already hard for the Galaxy Aristocrats from Beta Planet to conceive a child, so each and every child from Beta Planet would be treated by the entire race like a treasure.

And 800 plus years ago, there was a young woman on Beta Planet whose character was extremely cold and wasn’t moved by any man. However, her looks were extremely beautiful, and therefore attracted the affection of many young men. Thus, a tragedy happened. After the woman turned 18, countless men started wooing her. Since there was a competition to fight for something, there would naturally be conflicts.

Actually, up to here, it wasn’t much. It was human nature to chase beautiful things. Outsiders weren’t suitable to interfere with things between the young people too. Yet, just at this timing, an accident happened.

That woman actually fell in love with a man from outside their race! She loved him with her all and without any regrets!

This instantly became a big problem! Previously, the men within their race had been fighting continuously for a total of three years!

And in these three years’ time, because of this, a few dozen families got into a feud with each other, some men even becoming handicapped because of their fighting.

But in the end, this woman fell in love with another man from outside their race!

Actually, falling in love with a man outside their race wasn’t really an issue, no one could stop love when it really appeared in front of you. But the problem was, this was unacceptable for the Beta people!

The reason was very simple. The population of the Beta people was very little, to begin with, and what’s more, if a woman from their race got together with someone from outside their race, that couple would definitely not be able to have any descendants!

Therefore, the Elders from Beta Planet were extremely angry and forcefully captured that woman back to Beta Planet and locked her up. Then, they arranged a man of the same age that had become handicapped because of fighting for her and forced her to marry him!

As for the man from outside their race, his home planet and the whole system that it was in were wiped out by the starships they sent!

The diameter of that star system was—a hundred light-years.

To prevent such a thing from ever happening again, after a total of three years of discussion, the Elders finally decided to create a rule—Gamble of Will.

All Beta women must be engaged after they turned 18 and get married before they turned 21. If the woman didn’t follow this rule and still not get married when they were 21, their race would choose a young man to put forward the Gamble of Will. He would be able to choose any kind of context for the gamble and as long as it was reasonable, the female party must accept. If the male party won, the female party must get married to him without any terms or conditions. If the female party won, she could choose not to get married, but she would be exiled and left to fend for herself.

And if a man put forward the Gamble of Will to a female party before she turned 21, the man would have to abide by the rules too—if he won, the female party would be married to him. If he lost, his family would arrange his marriage for him and he must accept the marriage regardless of who the other party was and whether she was ugly or fat. And if the female party won, if she still didn’t choose someone from their race to get married to after she turned 21, she would still be exiled.

After all, between the continuation of their race and a person’s personal likings, there really wasn’t much that needed to be said.

As for being exiled, although it didn’t sound very bad, once a Galaxy Aristocrat was exiled, it would be very hard for them to survive! Therefore, this condition became a deterrence. After all, unless there was really no other options left, no one would be willing to do such a thing.

Therefore, ever since this Gamble of Will appeared, it only happened four times out of this 800 plus years. Out of these four times, three times it was won by the male party and they married the female party. One time, the female party won and, after a total of three years of trying to change her mind but to no avail, she could only be exiled in the end and no one knew of her whereabouts now.

It could be said that once this situation happened, whatever the result was, it practically all ended in tragedy.

And obviously, the current Jiang Qianxue seemed to have a tendency of going towards this direction.

“I hope that things are not too dire yet.” Jiang Duxing softly sighed and muttered, “The best result is that this mysterious man is also from our race. If not, I hope he is wholly devoted to martial arts and doesn’t care about relationships. Thinking over this carefully, if he continues to hide his identity and not let Qianxue know who he is, that would be the best result. Else, if they really force the Elders to send someone to put forward the Gamble of Will... Sigh...”

Jiang Duxing was thinking through a lot in such a short time. And just at this moment, the big screen refreshed!

The information on level 28 disappeared. In its place, the information appeared on level 29!

Current number of people who passed level 29—Total: 1, Shenluo City: 1.

First: Hidden

He had passed level 29!

...

“He really passed level 29!” Her heart jumping rapidly, Jiang Qianxue stared deadly at the big screen for level 29 and muttered, “The man of my dreams is a super-powerful hero. One time, he will appear in front of me with his body full of light... But, will he... will he like me?”

...

Different from Jiang Qianxue’s perplexed feelings, everyone else in Shenluo City had all gone crazy!

He passed through level 29! The mysterious man actually really passed level 29!

That’s level 29! And he had passed it just like that. Now, only the last level, level 30, was standing in his way!

Everyone went around telling all those around them of this news. Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, they all hugged each other and laughed together!

“Hahahaha, impressive! Really impressive! Someone formidable has appeared in our Shenluo City, he has passed level 29! Hahahaha! I believe that level 30 definitely isn’t a problem for him too!”

“Impressive! He’s so awesome! We can definitely hold our heads up high in front of those from other cities now. The highest achievement for the other cities is just only entering level 23. But here, ours is already going to level 30, the difference is really too big, haha, too big!”

“That’s right, our super genius is really extraordinary. Hehe, this time, when I have the time to go out, I shall tell everyone I see that I am from Shenluo City, we have a super genius in our city, haha!”

...

“He’s indeed impressive.” Fei Hong looked at the big screen on level 29 and praised. “He’s really extraordinary. Level 29 is different from the previous levels. According to the news I got from on top, the difficulty of this gatekeeper level is totally on another level. This mysterious man even managed to pass level 29, I wonder if he can do so for level 30 too...”

“Brother Fei Hong, this person is really awesome!” Ao Ran exclaimed and said, “He even passed level 29, I wonder if level 30... I feel that there is real hope of this happening!”

The red-level Honorary Aristocrats behind them all breathed a long sigh of relief.

Their mentality now was very profound.

If this mysterious man only passed level 22 or 24, he would directly become an orange-level or yellow-level Honorary Aristocrat and would affect their promotion too. But now, when this person came to level 30, they wouldn’t be affected by him anymore—if this person became an Honorary Aristocrat, he would start from at least blue-level and above. Such a rank was absolutely not linked at all to these red-level Honorary Aristocrats. No matter what he did, these people wouldn’t be affected, so they weren’t concerned about this point at all now.

For example, a bunch of people from junior high was fighting for the slots to enter high school’s best class. At first, there was a person whose results were very good, so the others considered him as a strong opponent and began to fear him. However, in the end, they discovered that this person’s results were super good and he was directly recruited into a university, so what was there to be afraid of now?

“This genius is really extremely strong.” A red-level Honorary Aristocrat commented, “He has already reached level 30 in such a short period of time. I wonder if he can pass this last level too.”

“I think he probably can.” Another red-level Honorary Aristocrat smiled and said, “Actually, we should pray that he will pass level 30. That way, his influence on our promotion will become even smaller, haha!”

...

As for the other city owners from the other main cities, they were all staring fixedly at the big screen too.

Passing level 29 on the first day of trial, this kind of genius was really...

The number one warrior who defeated Mo Tianji, Duan Xuan, he could at also at most reach such a standard too, right? And now, such a genius actually appeared again, this was really one in every thousand years!

“Shenluo City can really have something to boast about this time.” A Galaxy Aristocrat enviously said, “Jiang Duxing had such a genius appear in his city, even if he can’t make this person join his family, he will at least gain some other benefits too. Sigh, our people have only passed level 22 at most, this is really incomparable!”

“For things such as luck, if it really comes, no one can stop it even if they want to.” Another Galaxy Aristocrat helplessly said, “This Jiang Duxing has really obtained a treasure this time. I can only say that I am really envious of him.”

...

While the Galaxy Aristocrats on the various main cities were discussing this, on Beta Planet, a young man of about 22 years old suddenly boarded a starship and rushed towards Silver-blue super-planet through space oscillation.

This young man had long silver hair, sword-like eyebrows, a height of 1.9 meters, a slender body with muscles slightly budging and full of explosive strength. One could tell just from his appearance alone that this was a very formidable young man.

And this was a fact. His identity was the number one genius of the Saiyan clan!

He was a Fifth Order Planet Warrior who had fused with an ice soul stone, a super-strong person, Aristocrat.Tianxing!

“Young Master Tianxing.” The guard reported. “Our luck is quite good, we are only 52 hours away from Silver-blue super-planet.”

“Okay, good.” Tianxing sat on the sofa, closed his eyes and rested, and softly waved his hand. The guard instantly retreated. Tianxing pondered and said to himself, “This kind of super-genius can only be seen once in a thousand years. I wonder what kind of ability he has, but it definitely won’t be simple. Qianxue likes this kind of hero-like character the most. Now that such a person appeared, she will definitely have some special thoughts about this. I must prevent this from happening.

“Yin Tianzong is just a worthless person. It doesn’t matter that he is pestering Qianxue normally, but this time, I can’t be careless.

“This genius is really too strong. I could only barely make it past level 23, but he actually already made it to level 30. I definitely can’t just ignore this! It will be fine if he is someone devoted to martial arts, but if he dares to have any ideas on Qianxue, I will even resort to the Gamble of Will if needed!”

Every young person of the Beta race was treated like a treasure, especially someone as beautiful as Jiang Qianxue, she naturally didn’t lack suitors.

Tianxing was one of those with the most competitive power!

Everyone knew what kind of person Yin Tianzong was. He could be described as good friends with Jiang Qianxue as they grew up together, but no one believed that they would get together and become a couple. But today, things were different.

This super-genius who directly passed level 29 would definitely cause a huge impact on Jiang Qianxue.

Therefore, those previously not very anxious young men from the Beta race all started rushing towards Silver-blue super-planet. Because all of them felt a strong sense of danger!

Momentarily, as much as a few dozen starships went through space oscillation and moved out towards Shenluo City!
