The Tianhe Battle came to an end.

The Emperor single-handedly blew apart the invading Taotie Legion's flagship.

Making these aliens from the Dark Nebula realize who the true trash of the universe was.

Having lost their flagship, the Taotie soldiers were pursued relentlessly by Sun Wukong, Lena, and the many warriors of Xiong Bing Lian, beaten into complete disarray.

After the battle, Ryze fulfilled the promise he had made to the Emperor.

As long as he performed outstandingly, Ryze would share his knowledge with him.

"Thank you for your generosity."

After expressing his sincere thanks with a smile, the Emperor turned and left.

"If this keeps up, I really won't have anything left to teach him."

Ryze watched the Emperor walk away, his face full of helplessness.

"He has nearly mastered everything Principal Gillan gave me, as well as the knowledge of the God-Making Project."

"Before long, I'll have to call him teacher."

Dukao, standing beside him, also frowned.

"I previously acquired the knowledge vaults of De Xing and Nuo Xing. That should keep us going for a while.

"Why don't you contact Principal Gillan and see if we can invite him to Earth? He should like a student like this."

Ryze nodded.

"That's our only option. Principal Gillan once worked with Dr. Ding Gehei. His knowledge is as vast as the sea, and he should be able to keep teaching him."

After celebrating the Tianhe Battle's victory, Ryze returned to the academy and sent an interdimensional message to Principal Gillan in Fei Leizhe under both his and Dukao's names.

They hoped he would make a trip to Earth.

With the Tianhe Battle over, Earth enjoyed a brief period of peace before once again being drawn into the complicated currents of the universe.

Demon King Morgana had Death God Karl send her flagship—the Demon Wings—to Earth.

Not long afterward, her sworn enemies, the angels, also descended upon Earth.

Above the Juxia.

Angel Queen Keisha sat on her luxurious, soft sofa and looked down at the members of Xiong Bing Lian below.

"Lena, bearer of the Sun's Light. Too young, too immature."

"Cheng Yaowen, descendant of De Xing's royal Light Shield Family. You've even fought Morgana's subordinates before. Not bad. You don't need to come closer. Just stand there."

"Galaxy Force? Not bad, though he has yet to mature."

Just as Keisha was passing judgment on the members of Xiong Bing Lian, Angel Yan, her Sacred Left Wing Guard, stepped forward.

"Queen, Morgana's exact coordinates have been detected. Requesting authorization to carry out the Great Judgment."

Keisha looked at Angel Yan and nodded.

"Go. For justice."

Angel Yan spread her wings and flew into the sky. Passing through the clouds with the Flame Sword in hand, she drew upon the power of the stars and prepared to carry out the Great Judgment.

The Demon Wings detected the angels' movements at once as well.

Morgana immediately burst into profanity.

"That damn bitch Keisha actually wants to carry out the Great Judgment? Jump straight above a human city. Let's see if she dares make those humans die with me."

On the Juxia, the members of Xiong Bing Lian also erupted.

"What the hell is this Great Judgment?"

"How dare they act so recklessly? There's a human city below!"

"This is Earth. It's not the angels' place to call the shots, is it?"

Dukao also received a call from the Huaxia Military.

"No matter what tomorrow brings—whether war breaks out or the apocalypse descends—the people's army will never betray the people. Sacrifice is our mission, and protection is our duty."

"No matter what reasons those angels have, they are not allowed to bargain with the people's lives. Our lives may be placed upon the scales and weighed for their value, but the people we protect may not."

"I understand." Dukao nodded. After hanging up, he looked at the staff officer beside him.

"Go get the Emperor. I don't care what he's doing, drag him out here. Otherwise, something terrible is going to happen."

Ge Xiaolun stepped forward with his great sword in hand and shouted at Angel Queen Keisha.

"Hey, the one sitting on the sofa! Are you sick or something? This is Earth. It's not your place to make the decisions."

"Galaxy Force, carrying out the Great Judgment on Morgana now is the best choice. With your current strength, you cannot possibly defeat Morgana."

"Do you know how many people will die?"

"Punishing evil always requires sacrifice."

"Then who should hold the power to decide who gets sacrificed?"

Another familiar, reassuring voice rang out.

Cutting into the conversation between Ge Xiaolun and Keisha.

"Boss, you finally made it."

Seeing the Emperor appear, Ge Xiaolun beamed with delight.

Dukao and the others also regained their composure, no longer as panicked as before.

"Who are you?"

Keisha looked at the Emperor, her brows furrowing.

The Sacred Engine within her activated its scanning protocol, intending to read his information.

Data error. Unable to retrieve target information. Data error. Unable to retrieve target information. Warning: Sub-biological energy attack detected. Target is attempting to invade logical modules and alter self-perception. Warning: Sub-biological energy attack detected. Target is attempting to invade logical modules and alter self-perception. Level-one protection protocol breached. Level-two protection protocol breached. Connecting to the Sacred Knowledge Vault. Allocating additional computing power. Establishing a logical infinite loop. Constructing defensive systems. Attack successfully repelled.

The unceasing warnings caused Keisha, who had always been calm and composed, to show a slight change in expression.

"You can casually distort reality itself, and wield sub-biological abilities so effortlessly. The God-Making Project definitely has no one like you. Who exactly are you?"

Keisha's gaze deepened.

Her hand unconsciously moved to the hilt of the Heavenly Blade Sword.

"Big Guy, you're finished. They saw through you."

Raven flapped his wings, sounding somewhat gleeful.

Yet he was not particularly worried.

The Emperor was originally the human vessel of the universe-level evil god—the Dark King.

The many civilizations of the Super God Universe had always strived to become eternal gods.

But for the Emperor, becoming a god was as easy as lifting a hand.

It only depended on whether he could let go of humanity.

The day humanity went extinct would be the day the Emperor became a god.

The entire universe would head toward its end because of the Dark King's birth.

The Dark King could grow without limit by devouring the Warp and the real world.

Besides, even if the Emperor did not become a god, his strength was still beyond imagination.

Combined with the source power he had acquired during this time, standing against Angel Queen Keisha would not be much of a problem.

And the Emperor was immortal. Even if he was killed, it did not matter—he would revive after some time.

"You do not need to know who I am. You only need to know one thing: you have no right to decide whether those ordinary people live or die, nor do you have the right to determine their future."

The Emperor's attitude was exceptionally forceful.

Keisha examined the Emperor, a trace of apprehension appearing on her face.

She felt that she had never truly understood the Super Academy, much less the Divine River Civilization.

"Since the Super Academy has intervened, there is little I can say."

"Yan, terminate the Great Judgment."

Angel Yan, high in the sky, heard Keisha's order and withdrew the Great Judgment.

Morgana aboard the Demon Wings let out a breath of relief.

"Who the hell is that guy?! Even that bitch Keisha got scared stiff."

"I have a bad feeling about this."

Watching the Emperor converse with Keisha, Morgana felt as though she had instinctively overlooked something.

"Connect to the Demon Wings' supercomputer and run a self-diagnostic for me."

A few minutes later, earth-shaking profanity erupted from within the Demon Wings.

"Fuck! Someone twisted my cognition."

The world of Fei Leizhe.

The Snai Fu Tribe, which had established hegemony over the northern continent.

Principal Gillan spread knowledge and order here, hoping to change the tribes' barbaric beliefs and lead them into civilized society.

After finishing another lesson, Principal Gillan received Ryze's interdimensional communication.

"A diligent and studious student? One who might even replace Ding Gehei and unravel the secrets of the Ultimate Void."

"Dukao and Ryze are exaggerating a little too much."

"Now the demons, the angels, and Carl, who stole the Great Clock, are all focused on Earth. Perhaps I should make a trip there as well."

"There is little left to teach here. They should comprehend the rest for themselves."

Principal Gillan muttered to himself as he prepared to travel to Earth.

To see the student Ryze and Dukao could not stop praising.

He would not believe that anyone could compare to the Great Inventor, Ding Gehei.

After all, even in the Divine River Civilization, whose technological development had reached its peak, such a figure had appeared only once.

How could such a person emerge from a weak civilization still in its pre-nuclear age?
