Chapter 1203: Tempering the Mind
Chapter 1203: Tempering the Mind
The teleportation portal above Mount Fuji's Psychic Spring was the highest quality, offering a seamless and comfortable journey. However, this time, Su Yu used the lowest-tier teleportation service.
The difference was akin to driving on a highway versus a bumpy dirt road. Not only was the speed vastly different, but the comfort level was incomparable.
Yet, Su Yu was puzzled.
He asked, "Lowest-tier teleportation service? Surely, Saint Song isn't short on money. Why would she arrange this for me?"
After all, Saint Song was the ruler of the Holy Silver Federation. She couldn't possibly be lacking in funds, right?
But when Su Yu posed his question, AI Blue Whale fell silent.
After a long while, just as Su Yu began to wonder if Blue Whale had lost connection, its voice finally returned, "I consulted with Saint Song, and her response was—she wants to temper your mind."
"Temper my mind?"
"Yes," Blue Whale explained. "In your Chinese language, there's a proverb called 'thick virtue bears all things.' It means that possessing a strong moral character and mental fortitude is essential to wield great power, authority, and wealth.
In ancient China, especially with emperors who were not the founding rulers, they often lacked the strong abilities, skills, and mental fortitude to rule effectively. As a result, they were often manipulated by relatives and powerful ministers.
This might seem distant, so let's talk about modern Blue Star society.
On Blue Star, many celebrities, athletes, and internet stars achieve overnight success and wealth, often through talent or luck, without having the necessary education or skills. However, they lack the mental fortitude to manage such wealth. They are easily tempted and deceived, leading to reckless spending and, ultimately, financial ruin."
"Hmm..." As Blue Whale provided examples, Su Yu began to understand its point.
Blue Whale continued, "Administrator Su Yu, this applies to you as well.
Saint Song recently conducted an initial assessment of you. She believes that your current mental fortitude, wisdom, and abilities can only handle planetary-level power and wealth. Any more, and you would be overwhelmed.
However, Saint Song wants you to become a galactic-level being, the strongest in the Holy Silver Civilization. This means not only having top-tier strength but also vast wealth.
Do you think your current wisdom and mental fortitude can handle such immense power? Can you manage such wealth without being blinded by greed and desire?
Can you outmaneuver those who have lived for millions of years?"
"..." Su Yu fell silent.
He knew his limits.
With his current wisdom and mental fortitude, suddenly possessing immense power and extraordinary authority, especially at a galactic level, would be overwhelming.
Blue Whale added, "Therefore, Saint Song believes that your mental fortitude must be tempered. She doesn't want your journey to be too smooth.
That's why you can only use the lowest-tier teleportation service, and she hasn't given you any Holy Silver Coins.
Darak's corpse is a gift from Saint Song, your initial capital. Everything else, you'll have to earn on your own."
"Alright," Su Yu nodded.
If Saint Song thought he needed tempering, Su Yu reflected, he indeed needed it.
He would treat the Feige Hub as his first test.
He hoped this journey would bring out the best in him.
