Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 449
Chapter 447 Ordinary People
After the election, Yu Yin’s only feeling was a dream reminiscent of the Human Emperor candidates five hundred years ago.
Commander Liu had clearly set this question, hoping the candidates would fully utilize resources and maximize their profits. This was definitely not the approach Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu had taken.
Yu Yin had tried hard to catch up with their thinking, but still fell far short.
“We can draw on the help of others when necessary. I wonder if these youngsters appreciate our good intentions.”
“It should be possible. After all, we’ve both demonstrated and practiced it ourselves.”
Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu discussed the matter, both feeling they had sacrificed too much for the younger generation.
“When will the second trial begin?” Bai Hongtu was eager to try, still eager to try.
“There’s no rush for this kind of thing. Let the youngsters take some time.” Jiang Li saw through the Human Emperor candidate mark that Qin Luan and the others were summarizing their findings from the trial.
Commander Liu had said that the Old Emperor would also review his findings after the trial, considering what kind of trial to conduct next to limit the opportunities for him and Bai Hongtu to display their talents.
Jiang Li felt that the Old Emperor was worrying too much. He and Bai Hongtu were so outstanding that no matter how much they were restricted, it would be useless.
Facts proved this point. He and Bai Hongtu showed their prowess in the subsequent trials and took the lead.
“No more talking. I have to go back and continue to prepare the Jiuzhou Spiritual Plant Array.” Bai Hongtu said goodbye to Yu Yin and returned to Dao Sect and Tianyuan Dynasty.
Jiang Li was also bored, so he found the nearest city and wandered around there.
“Is this the Great Zhou Imperial City?” Jiang Li then remembered that Dongyun Lake was located in the Great Zhou Dynasty and was next to the Great Zhou Imperial City.
The Great Zhou Imperial City was still as prosperous as before, no, even more prosperous than before.
“Tanghulu, Tanghulu imported from the Mingzhong World!” The shouting caught Jiang Li’s attention.
Jiang Li remembered something important: “Oh no! That bastard Bai Hongtu is monopolizing the hawthorn industry.”
…
“Hello everyone, this is Dongsheng TV. I’m reporter Xiaoxin.”
“Not long ago, President Ming Zhong and Emperor Jiang Li jointly attended the Jiuzhou Conference and signed the ‘General Principles of Multi-Party Mutual Assistance,’ marking the official establishment of diplomatic relations between Ming Zhong and Jiuzhou. This is the first official diplomatic relationship between our Ming Zhong world and another world, and it’s of far-reaching significance.”
Ming Zhong was most proud of two things: first, with Jiang Li’s help, he completely resolved the ferocious beast disaster that had plagued their world for nearly ten thousand years, and second, he was named after them.
It could be said that Ming Zhong’s reputation had reached its peak, unmatched by any previous president.
Reporter Xiao Xin continued, “President Ming Zhong stated the need to strengthen cooperation and mutual assistance between the two worlds, particularly in the areas of economy, culture, and cultivation, and to establish long-term mechanisms.”
“The Human Emperor Palace also stated that the people of Jiuzhou welcome exchanges with the Mingzhong World and encourage all major factions to exchange and learn from each other.”
“The commercial street behind me was built with this in mind. It’s new, but it’s already bustling, and many people in Jiuzhou are interested in the goods sold there.”
“It’s understood that the commercial street established in the Great Zhou Imperial City sells products from our Mingzhong World. Let’s interview the people of Jiuzhou.”
Several floating cameras followed Xiao Xin, no cameraman needed.
Behind reporter Xiao Xin was the newly built commercial street, and many cultivators had flocked to see the technological products of the Mingzhong World.
This was the latest initiative of the Mingzhong World’s official television station, using live interviews and live broadcasts to let more people understand the Jiuzhou world.
Furthermore, they planned to promote Jiuzhou through documentaries and other means.
“Hello, may I ask what you’re most interested in buying at the Commercial Street?”
“Of course, a holographic simulator with no time limit! The holographic simulator I bought initially had a time limit, but I could cheat it with magic. But now, all holographic simulators are imprinted with restrictions designed by Daoist Master Bai Hongtu himself, making our magic completely ineffective…”
“Okay, we see this cultivator really likes our holographic simulator. Let’s talk to the next person.”
Reporter Xiaoxin smiled, moving the camera away from the person. She explained how to remove the time limit on the holographic simulator… She didn’t dare to think about what else the person would say.
“Hello, may I ask what you’re most interested in buying at the Commercial Street?”
“A robot.”
“It seems this cultivator really likes the robots from our world of bells. What kind of robot would you like? For household use or combat?”
“Anyone with a beautiful face who can sleep with me at night? Of course, it would be best if the face could be customized. I hear your robots from the world of bells are incredibly lifelike. Money is no object.” “
…Okay, let’s talk to the next person,” reporter Xiaoxin said with a sweet smile.
“Hello, you look like a student. What are you looking for in the shopping street?”
A student frowned. “The teacher made us memorize scriptures again, but we can’t do it at all. My classmates told me that the world of ringing bells has memory chips. They can implant a memory, and they’re very reliable, so you won’t forget it. I want to buy one.”
“Oh, and there’s also a nano calculator. I have a math test in a few days, and I’m terrible at it, so I want to buy one. The teacher doesn’t know much about technology yet, so he doesn’t consider nano calculators cheating.”
“Sir, what do you think of the world of ringing bells?” Reporter Xiao Xin turned the camera and asked the person behind her. She thought it would be better to change the subject; the previous answers, she thought, could be considered livestream glitches.
“Eh? Why didn’t you ask me what I wanted to buy? I was just about to say the candied haws in the world of ringing bells are delicious.” Jiang Li, an ordinary citizen, was interviewed, eating a candied haws.
Jiang Li’s appearance had changed, and people didn’t recognize him.
“I think the world of Mingzhong is amazing. It has worked hard to develop technology and has fought against ferocious beasts for thousands of years. Among the several worlds I have experienced, your world of Mingzhong has the highest level of technology.”
“But you pay too much attention to rationality and not enough attention to emotion. Sometimes it is easier to gain something by feeling with your heart than by seeing with your eyes.”
What Jiang Li said was actually the reason why the people of the world of Mingzhong have never found their spiritual roots.
Ming Zhong’s ancestors were remnants of the immortal realm who had forgotten their past. In an environment rich in spiritual energy, it should have been easier for them to find their spiritual roots and explore the path of cultivation.
However, Ming Zhong’s world pursued technological advancement, attempting to use technology to become more powerful, embarking on a path completely opposite to the path of cultivating immortals.
If Ming Zhong had found their spiritual roots earlier and combined cultivation with technology, their achievements would have been even greater than they are now.
However, it’s not too late to unite with Jiuzhou and develop together.
“So, what do you think of Emperor Jiang?”
