On the same level as Emperor Reina?

What kind of rank was that?

Emperor Reina's military rank was staff sergeant!

Although Mo Xing did not care much about such things, after being given an honorary position, his rank was only staff sergeant as well. This...

Shaking his head, Mo Xing smiled faintly and ultimately decided it did not matter.

After all, his own position was merely honorary.

Over on Emperor Reina's side, after reprimanding Ge Xiaolun, she had him step out of the ranks.

"I say, Ge Xiaolun, if you like her, just say it. Why keep hiding it like everyone doesn't already know?"

Ge Xiaolun scratched his head awkwardly. Especially after hearing the Super God Academy members' lively discussions, he did not dare lift his head to look at Rose even once.

Rose merely turned her head away, refusing to pay attention to Ge Xiaolun.

She knew Ge Xiaolun liked her, but her years of military experience had left her afraid to face his feelings.

In her heart, the nation came first!

For this nation, for the entire Earth, she was willing to do anything!

That was Du Rose!

And that was why, in the original work, Rose had been willing to go with Liang Bing for Earth's sake...

After Reina explained the Super God Academy and the culture of the universe to everyone, Ge Xiaolun raised a question.

Once everyone learned that they fell under the military's jurisdiction, they immediately began joking around.

Ge Xiaolun said to Emperor Reina, "You don't look much older than us, yet you're putting on such a young lady act!"

Those words displeased Emperor Reina.

"What young lady? I'm a goddess, and I've got way more charm than your Rose!"

"Hey, you can't put it like that!"

At that moment, Mo Xing, who had been watching the show from the side, stepped forward and said, "Reina, as the Fierce Sun Main God, you still don't really understand the culture of my Zhong Hua Family."

"As the saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. No matter how charming you are, it depends on the person."

"For example, in my eyes, you aren't as good as Qi Lin. In Ge Xiaolun's eyes, you aren't as good as Rose."

"Uh..."

Emperor Reina struggled with it for a long while, then admitted she still did not understand.

"Um... who is Xi Shi?"

"Pfft..."

"Hahahaha..."

Everyone burst into laughter. Then Liu Chuang spoke up. "You don't even know Xi Shi? She was one of the Four Great Beauties in our history!"

"She was also the earliest one!"

Emperor Reina was very displeased by Liu Chuang's mockery and snapped back, "I'm not from Earth. How would I know your history?!"

"Ahem..."

Mo Xing smiled. "All right, all right, stop joking around. Reina, just continue."

"Oh~"

The adorably clueless goddess nodded gently, then walked over to Rui Mengmeng.

"Mengmeng..."

"Present!"

"All right, all right, no need for that."

After waving her hand, Emperor Reina said to Rui Mengmeng, "Read more books. It'll do you good!"

"Oh~"

Watching Emperor Reina's arrangements from the side, Mo Xing could not help but smile.

Come to think of it, the military had already told Emperor Reina all about the Super God Academy members' backgrounds.

Still, Rui Mengmeng truly had it hard.

Her parents were alive, but she was indeed the eldest child in the family. Because her education level was not high, and because she had younger siblings at home—

Her farming parents did not have much money to support her continuing her education. As a result, Rui Mengmeng, who had only a middle school education, could only enter society and work to earn money.

Yet even so, this young girl had still been taken advantage of...

"Reporting, I have a question..."

Rui Mengmeng looked nervously at Emperor Reina, who said lightly, "Go ahead."

Hearing that, Rui Mengmeng hurriedly asked, "Can I learn computers here?"

"And can I learn other knowledge and skills here?"

"And, and... can I get a driver's license here?"

"And also, we've been training for over a month now. Didn't they say there'd be a salary allowance?"

The moment she said that, everyone in Super God Academy burst out laughing.

Even Emperor Reina quickly said, "There's an allowance? How come I don't have one?"

"You know, a single skirt here costs several hundred yuan. If I hadn't fleeced Mo Xing twice, I probably couldn't even afford clothes right now!"

"Huh? You don't have one either?"

Seeing Rui Mengmeng's adorably dumbfounded expression, Emperor Reina gave an awkward laugh. "Hey~ don't worry~"

"How much did they tell you the allowance would be?"

Rui Mengmeng replied with a blank look, "Ten times!"

Emperor Reina asked in confusion, "How much is ten times?"

Rui Mengmeng actually counted it out on her fingers. "I calculated it. After taxes, it'd still be over six thousand!"

That made Qi Lin and He Wei Lan, standing nearby, both frown.

Qi Lin asked in disbelief, "Ten times is only a little over six thousand?"

"What, you think everyone has it as easy as being a cop?"

That remark did not just upset Qi Lin. He Wei Lan was unhappy as well.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Alright, alright..."

At that moment, Mo Xing stepped forward and said to the two women, "Qi Lin, Wei Lan, Liu Chuang isn't entirely wrong."

"But he isn't entirely right either!"

With a soft sigh, Mo Xing continued, "That's simply how this world is. Wherever the light cannot reach, darkness will inevitably take root and grow!"

"You're both police officers. You should understand better than anyone that this world has never been simply black and white."

"Many people at the bottom of society don't have it easy, and Rui Mengmeng is merely one of them!"

"She doesn't even count as a microcosm of it!"

Both women fell silent at Mo Xing's words.

They both knew that Mo Xing had grown up as an orphan. The darkness he had experienced throughout his life was far beyond anything they could imagine.

More than that, what Rui Mengmeng had gone through was something Mo Xing had already experienced long ago.

So, in Qi Lin and He Wei Lan's eyes, that was also why Mo Xing did not feel much belonging toward this country...

"Alright, alright..."

Seeing that the atmosphere had turned awkward, Emperor Reina hurriedly spoke up. "I have no idea how that bastard A Jie sweet-talked all of you into coming here!"

Pointing at Ge Xiaolun, Emperor Reina said, "One of you wants to share a dorm with Rose~"

Then she looked at Rui Mengmeng. "One wants an allowance."

Finally, she pointed at Zhao Xin. "And one wants superpowers!"

By the time she said all that, Emperor Reina felt utterly exhausted.

Shaking her head, Emperor Reina said to everyone, "I don't know how each of you got talked into joining, but what I want to say is this: now that you're here, you should put your personal issues aside first!"

Seeing that no one's mood had improved, Emperor Reina said to the two who had stepped out, "Liu Chuang, Ge Xiaolun, you two exchange a few moves!"

The two stared at Emperor Reina in bewilderment. "What... what the hell?"

Once they came to their senses, they started flailing at each other like a pair of rookies...

In the end, Emperor Reina could no longer stand it and immediately summoned their weapons.

Once they had taken up their weapons, the two finally began their first true clash...
