Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating! Chapter 229

Chapter 229: Chapter 227: The more hardships you endure now, the less bloodshed during trials!

Clearly, the appearance of these people further ignited the public's attention, even leading major media outlets to start focusing their reports, drawing in an increasing number of eyes!

Such enthusiasm had exceeded the expectations of most people.

However, the Analysis Department soon found the reason.

“In the era of the Civilization Trial, one major change in society is that the focus of people has shifted from past tycoons, celebrities, and politicians to now the Chosen Ones and warriors of various levels, and the social strata have changed accordingly…”

Today, people might not be able to name many politicians or stars, but most are aware of these warriors at the forefront of human civilization.

It is said that on some unofficial platforms, there are already rankings of the many powerful individuals within human civilization.

Some, who are not classified as confidential, have their combat records listed, or their public fight recordings analyzed.

Due to a lack of intelligence and official authority, such rankings are naturally not very accurate, but it is precisely for this reason that they attract a lot of discussion and contention.

Consequently, they enjoy a fair amount of popularity.

Each of these warriors has, therefore, become known to the public.

They may not be very aware themselves, but each of them has already gained considerable fame.

After realizing this, the Analysis Department quickly extended a series of project plans.

The power of public opinion cannot be overlooked, and positive guidance plays a proactive role in the development of the whole civilization.

It can only be said that with the temporary end of the trial, many changes in the era that were not prominent during the Trial Period will burst forth at an astonishing speed during the interim, and the management of civilization must prepare to be flexible and responsive.

Like at this moment.

As more and more people arrived and after brief communication, the camera swiftly shifted to Qiuyue.

This change naturally sparked intense interest among netizens, and for a moment, the screen was swamped with barrage comments like “Her Highness, Princess Chang,” “Princess Chang!” “Peace to Your Highness,” and “Greeting Her Highness, Princess Chang!”

Initially, only a few people called her by this name, but now, more and more people were aware of this exclusive title and began to use it too.

Qiuyue also noticed the content of the barrage, and her naturally serene face quickly reddened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Please, don't call me that.”

She waved her hands, the very hands that had once torn apart Level 19 undead in battle, but now they seemed somewhat out of place.

This reaction only excited the netizens even more.

The density of the barrage comments even broke the record at one point.

As Shen Hao's foster sister and one of the strongest Chosen Ones in human civilization, Qiuyue naturally had an extremely high profile in society.

“Princess Chang” was naturally more of a joke than an official title, but it clearly showed people's affection for her.

On one hand, it was because of Shen Hao's presence, and on the other hand, it was due to her performance and achievements during the Trial.

A mere sixteen-year-old girl, not only secured the status of a Chosen One by herself but also fought on the most brutal front lines, even getting injured multiple times. How could such a figure as Qiuyue not be loved by the people?

Even the warriors on the front lines had amassed a large number of fans, let alone the general public.

At this time, seemingly having realized her efforts to correct people's calls were futile, Qiuyue finally gave up, took a deep breath to calm her emotions, and then flashed a sweet smile to the camera.

“Considering that many of you might not understand, let me explain it to you.”

Boom, with that, the density of the barrage comments surged even more.

More and more people were joining, and a great many were extremely excited.

However, Qiuyue had learned not to look at the barrage comments.

She was initially unaccustomed, but soon adapted.

“What we're live streaming today is actually quite simple. The Empress from the Great Yan Civilization has come today to visit our planet. Her level has reached 20, just one step away from the Third Stage, so right after arriving, she immediately sensed the presence of the Heavenly Tribulation. By the way, Heavenly Tribulation can be sensed and triggered voluntarily, so don't worry about it descending suddenly…”

Heavenly Tribulation had indeed attracted a lot of attention, as previous information was not complete, after all, rules like these obtained from rewards require people to explore on their own.

Taking this opportunity to share some information is one of the reasons Qiuyue was pushed forward.

Her status commanded immense trust among the public, and having such a “star” could play a significant role in moments when guidance was needed.

As for Qiuyue herself, she had no desire to become a “star,” yet she was delighted to be making a difference.

She was trying her best to adapt to her new role at this moment.

“Heavenly Tribulation isn't just about the Heavenly Tribulation. Especially when breaking through to the Second Stage, it's seldom lightning but mostly a Wind and Fire Tribulation.” Qiuyue continued her explanation, “Fiery flames will appear inside your body, or bone-scraping impact will hit your physique. The process is painful and may cause injuries, but within this process, the powers of wind and fire will merge into your body, assisting in the breakthrough and enhancing the strength of your physical body. It can even integrate into your spiritual power or magic power, greatly aiding strength. The greater the intensity, the more help it provides. Oh, and the intensity can be chosen by yourself, you just need to send a request to Fiora…”

Though her explanation was somewhat mechanical, she still clearly outlined the key points.

People then realized that “Heavenly Tribulation” and “reward” were not separate; they were actually one and the same.

This rule, rather than being a “tribulation,” could be seen as a whetstone, designed to enhance strength in a way involving some risk and suffering.

So, as long as one could bear it, the greater the intensity of the Heavenly Tribulation, the greater the benefits one would receive.

In an instant, the crowd, which had originally harbored some fear of the existence of the Heavenly Tribulation, decreased their worries.

On the contrary, those who yearned for power and held fighting spirit for the future became even more anticipatory.

Especially some from Alien Races.

For instance, the Mongolians.

At this moment, the chieftain of the Mongolian Clan even turned to his tribespeople and said, “Our warriors must cherish this precious opportunity. We must not avoid it or choose a low-difficulty Heavenly Tribulation. If we don't surpass it on the first try, then we'll try a second time, a third!”

“Yes!”

They were well aware that among all the Alien Races that had joined Human Civilization, the role of their Mongolian Clan was not prominent.

Especially when compared to the Senya people, who were skilled in the ways of nature, and the Wing Sky people, who were proficient in alchemy.

To gain a foothold in this powerful civilization without being eliminated, the only thing they could compete with was martial strength!

Therefore, opportunities like this one that could enhance strength were extremely valuable to them!

“Now, the Emperor of Great Yan has chosen the highest difficulty,” Qiuyue continued, her voice involuntarily rising a bit, “since the current strength of the Heavenly Tribulation can only satisfy the needs up to the third stage, which is the so-called 'Golden Core Tribulation.' So, what is going to be shown to everyone in a moment will be the highest difficulty in the entirety of the Heavenly Tribulation System! The Heavenly Tribulation, Wind Tribulation, and Fire Tribulation will all come at once, and there will be a total of nine rounds! It is said that if one surpasses all of them, there could be a special gain… I also want to challenge the highest difficulty.”

By the end of her speech, there was not a trace of fear on her face, and she even clenched her fist as if to firm her own resolution.

This subconscious gesture caused the barrage to pause for a moment.

Then a dense flurry of barrage comments suddenly surged up.

“Her Highness, Princess Chang, cheer up!”

“Her Highness, Princess Chang is the best!”

“I am ashamed; I actually wanted to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation just now.”

“I've decided! I will also choose the highest difficulty!”

“We can't be cowards!”

“Suffer more now, bleed less during the Trial!”

Clearly, Qiuyue's performance inspired many people, and this inspiration was even more effective than the official repeated promotions and pushes!

After all, no matter how strong Qiuyue was, she was a sixteen-year-old girl!

As a member of Shen Hao's family, she could have stayed safe and enjoyed life behind the scenes, instead of enduring the pain that should not be borne by someone of her status just to become stronger.

The more people who loved her, the easier it was to draw inspiration and strength from her.

And at this point, it seemed Empress Xi Qing had finally made her preparations.

She stepped forward to the place ready to face the Heavenly Tribulation.

Suddenly, the camera shifted directly onto her.

The vast majority of people truly recognized this Empress for the first time!

“So beautiful!”

“Thought silver hair would make one look old, but not at all.”

“Very imposing!”

“I heard that before becoming Empress, she was a famous female knight in Jianghu!”

“Golden Legendary Talent, indeed.”

“Other civilizations also have their own pride.”

“It's over, I feel like Princess Karla and Sage Amamin are going to be outshone.”

Clearly, Empress Xi Qing, with her tall figure, outstanding demeanor, and beautiful silver hair, stunned many people as soon as she appeared; just as she had said to Qiuyue, Human Civilization and the Great Yan Civilization shared a striking similarity in their aesthetics.

Of course, compared to her beauty, Xi Qing's identity and strength were also parts of her charm.

Although Shen Hao had obtained three slots for promoting Talents to Golden Legendary Level, he had not used them yet, nor had he made them public, so she remained the only Chosen One within the entire Civilization System who possessed a Golden Legendary Talent.

Moreover, her status as Empress naturally gave her a charisma unique to the strong.

At this very moment, her stance as she gazed up at the sky conveyed an indescribable grace.

And in the high sky above, a vast expanse of dark clouds was gathering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She directly initiated the Heavenly Tribulation!
